Feb. 7th, 2010 10:46 amSome nice person posted a link to Avatar: The Last Airbender Soundtrack Music in response to an inquiry on the LJ community. I am very happily listening to it now. The music in this series kicks so much ass.
If they came out with official soundtrack CDs for the series, I would buy them immediately. I don't think I'm alone there, either. I've already pre-ordered the artbook that's coming out in June, too.
A 30-second trailer for the Last Airbender movie, which is set to play in a commercial during the Superbowl, was released online recently.
I have mixed feelings about the movie. On one hand, I'd like to see this series get more well-deserved attention, and the movie may attract a few who wouldn't have looked twice at the cartoon. On the other... if it's not done right, it's not going to do the series any favors. The racial casting controversy is another factor. I want to support the series and the whole idea of making it into a movie, but I don't really want to support that.
But... based on the trailer, even though I'm not sure if it really has that 'Avatar' feel to it, it does kind of look like a neat movie. I might go see it and try to think 'based on Avatar' rather than 'the Avatar series on the big screen'. That way if it sucks, I won't be as let down.
