BLACK LINE ON EDGE OF MOVIE TEXTURE UNITY EASYMOVIE SERIES
In 2018, Michael Dante Dimartino and Bryan Konietzko announced a live-action remake of the animated series on Netflix, effectively ending any chance of future films. The film was originally envisioned as the first in a trilogy of Last Airbender films each based on the three seasons of the show, but due to the unpopularity and the low profits of the first film, the planned trilogy was left in doubt for many years. It is the fourth highest grossing Nickelodeon film, behind The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2015), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014), and The Adventures of Tintin (2011). Produced on a $150 million budget, the film grossed $131 million domestically and $319 million worldwide. The Last Airbender opened in second place at the box office behind The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. The film swept the Golden Raspberry Awards in 2010, with five 'wins' including Worst Picture the film is sometimes considered one of the worst ever made. James Newton Howard's score received overwhelmingly positive reviews. The film's 3D conversion was also criticized. The film was universally panned by critics, audiences and fans of the original animated series alike upon its release with many reviewers citing inconsistencies between the plot, screenplay and source material as well as deriding the acting, writing, casting and dialogue.
