    Airbender Gets 2010 Date

    Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies will release M. Night Shyamalan's live-action big-screen adaptation of the popular animated TV series Avatar: The Last Airbender on July 2, 2010, Variety reported.

    The studio has dropped Avatar from the title of the action-adventure movie so as to avoid confusion with James Cameron's 3-D epic Avatar, which 20th Century Fox opens Dec. 18, 2009.

    Airbender is the first movie to claim that date.

    The creators of the Nick TV series were heavily influenced by Japanese anime filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki. The storyline revolves around a young hero who has the ability to manipulate the elements and stop a ruthless nation from destroying three other nations.

    Shyamalan, who will direct from a script he penned, said Miyazaki is one of the greatest storytellers in the world.

      It could be cool, but it's hard to go from animated to live-action...though with the amount of CG effects that will lively be used it will almost be a cartoon still.

      It's too bad the animators can't get their act together though, people have been waiting for episode 14 of chapter 3 since early February.

        And by "people", you of course mean "Jammrock".

              Hey count my whole family too
              Actually the last aired episode was Jan 5th for us in Canada. My kids are dying, waiting for the next episode. Okay me too.
              But this Friday might be the Friday for 2 half hour shows called "The Boiling Rock" We are keeping our fingers crossed. Also read somewhere that this will be the last season of Avatar, but there might be 3 one hour movies in the fall of 2008.

                    Not even IMDB has airdates listed, which means no Airbender.

                      I've been seeing some updated air times for the Boiling Rock episodes, both of which are suppose to air on 6 May, but if you look online they have apparently been leaked early.
