I'm not an Airbender fan.

Never watched the show or anything, so I wasn't going to see the movie in the first place.

However, I know many of you are upset over the serious fail-y issues of the movie, so you may be interested to know (if you didn't already) that the movie apparently sucks.

This is good news and bad news.

It's good news, of course, because if you're boycotting the movie it's a relief to know that you're not missing anything.

It's bad news for the same reason. If you're boycotting something, you kinda lose some of that feeling of moral strength when you're boycotting something that's not worth your time anyway. It's just disappointing, am I right? It's like making a moral stand by boycotting durian fruit. It's like ME boycotting this movie I had no interest in from the start!

But, yes. Apparently the movie? It sucks.
