[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	Cordovaa posted: do not see this movie... it will piss you off It did not piss me off and here is why. I love the Nick animated version as do my sons, who got me to watch it with them. We went to see the movie expecting to see something similar to the cartoon. That's pretty much what we got. Yes, they missed some things but hard to put the entire first season into 1.5 hours. Yes there were some irritating changes. The pronunciation of Aang and Sakka to begin with. The loss of Sakka's humor being another, very little momo. What we did not expect to see was a potentially award winning film. Which, of what I have read, seems to be the main problem people have with it, especially critics. I guess because of the director involved many people expected an epic movie on the scale of LoTR or something. It is what is to me, a kids movie. Yes it was horrid at many times and they took liberties I wish they had not taken. But I guess having had few expectations walking in, I was fine with what I got. The kids liked it and that is all that matters in the end. Now what really ticks me off is that some people are really pushing the boundaries of sanity by claiming their was some hidden agenda in the movie because the "good guys" were mostly whitish while the "bad guys" were brown/darkish. Reading too much into a kids movie is bad. -----signature----- An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination---Voltaire If God has made us in his image, we have returned him the favor. ---Voltaire

Thing is every episode contributes in some way to the overall story arc, which I really liked about it. -----signature----- An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination---Voltaire If God has made us in his image, we have returned him the favor. ---Voltaire
