MAJOR FAIL

Due in theaters in summer 2010, "Airbender" has already begun to face a bit of controversy over the casting of white actors like Rathbone, Ringer and McCartney to play Asian characters — a concern [Jackson Rathbone] was quick to dismiss. "I think it's one of those things where I pull my hair up, shave the sides, and I definitely need a tan," he said of the transformation he'll go through to look more like Sokka. "It's one of those things where, hopefully, the audience will suspend disbelief a little bit." - Jackson Rathbone is a moron

They should've just gotten Mickey Rooney to play the part.

Seriously. I could have lived with it if he'd just said he'd been cast and would try to do his best to portray the character, but to take it there? oh no, that is NOT ON.
