You are right. ANG is the Avatar and Humans use Avatars in the movie Avatar. These are 2 completely different things! Both are awesome and I look forward to more Avatar movies and hope for more Avatar the last Airbender properties. Cause they are not the same, bit both entertaining
Both properties are vastly different! This whole article is hilarious and even to think they are alike is nonsense! Troll read if I ever read one. Avatar is about aliens, on a alien world with no powers over the elements. Last Airbender is about a war torn world with PEOPLE, HUMANS that have powers over the elements. How are they even remotely related?
…the first movie was Space Pocahontas, and also almost entirely ripped off an obscure sci fi novel from the 80s. I haven’t bothered to learn enough to know what the second movie ripped off. Why is ANYONE surprised at the supreme lack of originality in these works? They’re pretty enough, but original? Nah, honey. Not even a little.
The appearance and properties of Cameron’s Avatar movies are ripped off from Roger Dean’s work. I didn’t know it was a Disney production. Shame on the mouse house for backing up Cameron’s theft. I’d much rather see the movie Dean wanted to make
The idea of using the Elements of Fire, Water, Air, Earth has been so played out and used 1000s of times in tons of stories, from The 5th Elemnet with Bruce Willis to Disney ice water film Frozen.. and on & on..
The idea that its stealing can’t be used as its such an unoriginal idea to begin with.
Who cares? Is this an attempt to start a debate or a lawsuit? The movies are wonderful. Would we say Superman was ripped off by Shazam? No, they are different. So is Avatar and Avatar the last Airbender.
That’s a pretty funny thing to say, given that when Fawcett introduced Captain Marvel, DC sued them claiming the character was derivative of Supes. There are obviously only so many different ways a character can be super, but it was Captain Marvel’s super sales that threatened DC, he was published twice a month and outselling the Kryptonian. The case drug out for years in court, and when sales of superhero comics fell off after the end of WWII, Fawcett gave up and just turned their property over to DC, which sat on it and did nothing with it until after Marvel Launched their Captain Marvel. But it was too late for the flat-footed DC, who were then forced to call their comic Shazam. It’s a pity, as their character is better than any of the versions Marvel has come up with. So sure, nobody who matters is too concerned by similarities between the characters, because they are owned by the same corporation, but historically they weren’t, and the owners were plenty concerned about it.

The Last Airbender is absolutely the REAL Avatar.

If you can’t be bothered to actually go see it, what makes you entitled to an opinion on it?

Here we go again. The bored nattering nabobs have found their next recreational conspiracy to entertain themselves with.
Well have fun, kids.
