I think Shamalan's career started strong. The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable were great, Signs and The Village were good, and after that... We already posted a lot of negative stuff about them.

I think this was an interesting choice for Shamalan. He wants to get out of the thriller genre, and I think he does have the eye for the cinematography necessary. I still have my doubts about it. I hope it will be good.

If the movie is great, do you think the Racebending will be footnote to the story?

Again, not a good director to begin with. I'm afraid for this movie. Casting Katara and Sokka as white is not a smart move. But neither was M. Night to begin with. I'm afraid for this movie.
