Avatar - the Last Airbender

My family and I are hotly anticipating the REAL Avatar movie coming out soon - "The Last Airbender".  We've recently got hooked on the cartoon, and my 8 year olds and 4 year old love it.  To be honest, my wife loves it too, and I think it's really great.  It's a perfect allegory tale about right and wrong, good and evil, protecting whats right - it's great.  And it's not your typical Manga style, like Yu Gi Oh or something that looks ridiculous.  Its a good story, funny and exciting.
 
Don't get my little quip wrong, though.  I like the James Cameren "Avatar" movie a lot - it just stole the name.  I recommend renting "Avatar - The last Airbender Book 1 - Water" at your local videostore or Netflix.  Even without kids I would have enjoyed it.  But the kids sure make it a whole lot funner.

  1. Yes, I intend to program my children with Avatar. Actually, I use it on myself too.

    Also, you can pick it up at the library for free.
