the last airbender LA 3 26 10 Last Airbender Clips From MTV Movie Awards

As we all know the Twilight Movie Awards… Oops… sorry… The MTV Movie Awards are all about promotion, promotion, promotion! And we love it because we get to see a ton of new clips from many of the most anticipated films of the summer. Aside from the other clips we posted from Eclipse (it is an award ceremony for them after all), Lucas’ Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World and an awesome Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows sneak peek, they also released a kick-ass, action-packed, Roland Emmerich-style wave crashing clip of M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender.

There is no way that I could be more skeptical about an M. Night film, BUT even I have to admit that this latest clip and the recent international trailer look pretty awesome. Check it out below…

So when will we be seeing more of his latest film so that we can judge him further?

M. Night Shyamalan is set to direct the adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender; an anime-inspired cartoon series turned to live action film. But, it appears the fans are in a dramatic uproar.

Early this month on /Film they posted, first look photos of the Airbender cast. Not many were happy when they saw the photos of an all white cast. Jesse McCartney is supposedly in the works to play the character, Zuko, a Firebender and Nicola Peltz has been cast as Sokka’s fourteen-year-old sister Katara. An overwhelming percent of people are saying that Shyamalan is “white-washing” of their favorite series. Tom Sawyer must have thought it needed a fresh coat.
