Jackson Rathbone Defends Last Airbender Director
I am a fan of the hit Nickelodeon series Avatar The Last Airbender, which has been recently been made into a feature film. Critics have savaged the latest M. Night Shyamalan opus, and, although I personally think it may not be his best work, I would liken my reaction to it to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Both directors were committed to making a faithful adaptation, and, in doing so, did not reach the zenith of the film medium.
MTV reports that Last Airbender and Twilight Saga star Jackson Rathbone has jumped to the defense of his director.
“The critics in the U.S. … I just don’t think they really like M. Night Shyamalan anymore,” Rathbone told MTV News while on the blue carpet for the 2010 Teen Choice Awards. “I don’t know why. It’s sad because he’s such an amazing director and an amazing person.”
“It was interesting, the reception with ‘The Last Airbender,’ because they did extremely well with the U.S. domestic box office and even better than expected overseas,” he said.
Thanks to Just Jared for the heads up.

Hey there everyone, I hope everyone is doing well, I´ve been away I just started school again, after like *** years, I´ve finally started my masters, and since the kids have started school again, I´ve had no time to myself, but here I am again, in the comments section, so ok, I saw this movie during the summer I thought it was cool, the biggest critics are the kids and since mine loved it, then I was happy, I think that ppll get too serious about movies, aren´t they supposed to be fun, you know for enternaintment, they make them so that we can escape our real life for a few hours, and if that is what it did, then I think it did well.
M. Night Shamillan is a great director, I think that his specialty is Psifi and I think he does it well, I love all his movies this one included.

since this post has something to do with a twilight actor’s other project, i can’t help but think about rob’s bel ami and kristen’s welcome to the rileys. i think there were some news that both will be released this fall. can these movies be nominated for some oscars and other academy awards? heh. i don’t even know the exact criteria for the nominations.
just something i thought of out of the blue.
