The story is about a boy named, Aang as the last surviving Airbender and a monk of the Air Nomads, the only race of people with the unique ability to manipulate the air around them.

The creators intended Aang to "defeat enemies with his wits" and be a "trickster hero".

My Review:
On July 2, 2010, let’s follow the journey to complete his task by keeping the four nations at peace on our favorite movie theater. This is also a much awaited movie of 2010, after hitting the popularity as one of the best TV series of Nickelodeon. I really want to watch this movie on the big screen because I missed to follow the first episode on a TV series program in our country. That why it’s a good thing they released a movie of the first season… By the way, the movie was written, directed, and produced by M. Night Shyamalan. The movie is a live-action film adaptation of the first season which was created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, which has its influences from Asian art, mythology, and various martial arts fighting styles. For the meantime, let’s enjoy again the teaser trailer of the Last Airbender Movie 2010!

My Review:
Last week I watched this movie at the mall along with my nice Gabriel. Remembering my childhood days, I used to watched and followed Astro Boy only in a TV series program when I was a kid (if am not mistaken am just only 7 or 8 year old) because of his amazing power and being a cool kid robot. That’s why am also kinda excited (tsk tsk…) to watch again Astro Boy but for this time in a 3-D animated film, just to reminisce my childhood and of course have bonding with nice. For me, this movie are really entertaining with good values message that a kid must have learn and I think it also give an idea of what a robot can may do for human (good or bad). Happy watching…
