M. Night Shyamalan Fans

Have a question for Night about THE LAST AIRBENDER that you want an answer to?  Well, LastAirbenderFans.com’s Nightbender has been invited to a roundtable discussion with Night, and wants your questions submitted so that he can choose the best to potentially ask while at the round table.  Night will be answering the questions on video, to be posted on the website sometime later on.

And for those wondering why I’m not going, to be honest, I don’t know.  But I’ve been pretty busy with marriage prep.  You see, I proposed to my girlfriend of four years on the set of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.  You can read about it at that link.  I’ve had the opportunity to meet Michael Apted, now twice, as well as Andrew Adamson and many other amazing people.  Someday, the opportunity to meet Night will present itself.  If you see him, put in a good word for me.

Here we go again.  Every time someone from Unbreakable does a movie, they’re asked about the sequel.  I’d love to see a sequel, but it’s been 10 years.  I remember when the original came out, and everyone’s knee-jerk response was “what a weird and terrible movie” because it wasn’t The Sixth Sense 2.  Over time, the film found its audience, though, and now that audience wants a sequel.  Here’s the latest, from Bruce Willis:

“I talked to [Shyamalan] over the holidays, and he is still thinking about doing the fight movie between me and Sam that we were going to do,” Willis told MTV News.

“We chose to do the origin,” he explained, indicating that there was discussion early on about whether Willis’ character and the villain played by Samuel L. Jackson should square off in the first movie or a sequel.

“As long as Sam can make it, I’m up for it,” said Willis.

From JoBlo.com: Drinking with co-workers the other night, the topic of movies came up (as it always does) and my buddy Adam started listing what he felt were the best movie twists of all time. It was by no means a long list, but was summed up with his favorite being Edward Norton’s character turn in PRIMAL FEAR and then second favorite being that Bruce Willis was actually dead in THE SIXTH SENSE. I agreed with both choices and it got me thinking about M. Night Shyamalan. Shyamalan is now a household name, but his genius when it comes to films is split down the middle for most people (and in some cases resting more on the negative side). With a slew of films on the horizon, I’m hoping he can turn that around.

Don’t forget to tune-in to Super Bowl XLIV this Sunday on CBS to see a 30-second TV Spot for M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender.

You may not know her name, but 15-year-old actress Nicola Peltz – who stars in the upcoming M. Night Shyamalan fantasy The Last Airbender in the role of Katara – could be changing that very soon. Here’s why, according to People.com:

• M. Night gives her a rave review.
“I told the studio I didn’t want to make this movie without her,” Shyamalan tells PEOPLE. “I said that only once before in my career, and that was when I met Haley [Joel Osment] in the Sixth Sense auditions.” They’re buds off-camera, too: He came to Peltz’s 15th birthday party with his daughters.

We know that he’s previously called the Last Airbender trilogy his Lord of the Rings.  Now he’s also comparing it to Star Wars and The Matrix with good reason to do so.

For M. Night Shyamalan, it was his then 7-year old daughter who hooked him on the Nickelodeon series “Avatar: The Last Airbender.”

“She made us watch as a family and all four of us were hooked, “ Shyamalan said. “I was like, ‘This would make a killer movie.  And my wife who really has been kind of in neutral about my career was insane about it. Insane about it: ‘You have to do it. This is it. This is the one.’ ”

Reed sent word that ComingSoon.net has released two new banners for The Last Airbender.  Man… these are AWESOME.  That is all, enjoy!

According to Advertising Age, Paramount Pictures has purchased ad time during this year’s Super Bowl for The Last Airbender. Paramount also bought time for their other summer tent-pole film, Iron Man 2, as well as Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island. Last year’s Super Bowl pulled in an impressive 97 million viewers. That is a huge amount of exposure of Airbender if the ratings this year are the same. The commercial will likely only be between 30 and 35 seconds long, and will air sometime during the first or second quarter. Super Bowl XLIV will air February 7th on CBS.
