I never thought I'd see the day when M. Night Shyamalan would be outdone as having made the worst attempt at adapting Avatar: The Last Airbender, but apparently here we are.
It seems they're going for the Dragonball Evolution approach again; setting it in our world so that they can make the whole "Avatar" thing one giant puberty metaphor, and shoehorn in a bunch of Californian school drama to replace all the adventuring around in a fantastical world from the original show. Sokka and Katara aren't even going to be Inuits in this; just "Native Americans". Also Aang has adoptive parents, for some reason.
This is going to either be a massive, entertaining trainwreck; or a tiny, pitiful one that no one pays attention to. I'm hoping for the former, personally.
