Staying in the same spirit as the Academy Awards, The Golden Raspberry Award Foundation announced their winners for the worst films of 2010. The top honor went to M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender, which was critically panned and hated by fanboys alike. The story was horrible, the acting was terrible, and the 3D was horrendous. Overall, we feel it was definitely the best (worst) choice. Check out the rest of the winners…

Here’s the bad news: There is absolutely no TV on DVD being released this week. None whatsoever. Well, at least none of note (something tells me Season 5 of Perry Mason doesn’t really resonate with the Internet crowd) so there will be no section on the small screen for maybe the first time in the history of this column.
The good news: There is a TON of new feature films being released this week. Everything you could want from indie critical darling of The Kids Are All Right to the disappointing “3-D” blockbuster attempt of The Last Airbender and all points in between.
So we’re blowing up the format this week with a blurb about the eight feature films being released this week. And, don’t worry, we didn’t forget about informing you of that one little nugget of DVD badness either.
Check it out below…

It’s no secret that M. Night Shyamalan’s adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender was horrendous. The film didn’t exactly catch the essence of the series from which it was based, an issue that Scott Pilgrim vs The World definitely didn’t have. Therefore, let’s erase Shyamalan’s version and start from scratch. As a matter of fact, what would happen if Airbdender was combined with Scott Pilgrim?! Find out in the video below…

The 4th of July weekend is officially here and it’s already gone to the wolves…and vampires. The highly anticipated The Twilight Saga Eclipse opened in theaters on Wednesday to record breaking numbers. The third installment in the popular franchise has been described as the best film in the series and features a grief-stricken Victoria out for blood, Bella’s blood! There’s also the M. Night Shyamalan adaptation of the Nickelodeon series The Last Airbender about a young boy with the power to control the elements (water, air, fire, and earth).

This weekend, M. Night Shyamalan’s latest film will have to fight off toys, vampires and werewolves to earn some decent change over the holiday. Unfortunately Twilight and Toy Story 3 are the least of The Last Airbender’s problems. The film is an adaptation of a popular Nickelodeon animated series created by Americans who were inspired by anime and Asian culture. The show was ten times more entertaining than anything this film has to offer and despite its splashy special effects and action sequences this might be another dud for the once hot director.

M. Night Shyamalan with a camera is like a kid in a grown-up’s body. He’s megalomaniacal, but in a sincerely nice way. He’s made a notorious habit out of making films with twist endings because that’s the way he keeps you on a leash – he throws one final curveball that knocks you off your lid. You might like it (The Sixth Sense), and you might not (The Village). But either way, your forced to admit when all is said and done that you just drank his psychological Kool-Aid.

After months of bad press and racebending rants M. Night Shyamalan’s latest film The Last Airbender is about to hit theaters. It’s based on the popular Nickelodeon animated series “Avatar: The Last Airbender” that was created by Americans who were inspired by anime. The show was popular with both critics and fans alike but unfortunately the live-action adaptation doesn’t deserve such praise. Not only did Shyamalan direct but he also wrote the screenplay for the film that suffers from many problems that go beyond its questionable casting.

Paramount has finally decided to release a clip from next month’s The Last Airbender and it features none other than Jackson Rathbone. He plays Sokka in the film and conveniently stars in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, which opens next week. Are they trying to keep his visibility up so they can leech off some of those vampire profits? The clip is entitled “Fire Nation is Here,” and it’s pretty self-explanatory. Take a look…

In random movie news, Paramount has decided to move up the release date for The Last Airbender. Instead of hitting theaters on July 2nd it will debut on July 1st, which makes us wonder. What difference will a day make? The news comes via Twitter courtesy of Frank Marshall who’s a producer on the film.
