Description
NOTE! DOWLOAD FOR FULL SIZE!* Fixing in post refers to post-production. Post production is everything that happens after filming: editing, music, sound fx, visual fx, etc. Everything that needs to be cut and put together for the final film.
A little follow up to the previous page.

Not so much discussion about storyboards, but wondering why certain choices were made.
Could it be the movie had to make budget choices?
Everything here is just pure speculation, of course.

Damn, Slow Moving Rock must be the breakout star of 2010. Nigga's getting cameo spots all across the internet.

then bending in the film really annoyed me, it didnt seem fluid at all and too much waveing hands around before anything happened. i understand theres supposed to be forms with the bending but would have been much better if there element reacted with each move instead of only when they finished there dance

As someone else commented somewhere (more or less quoting here): "this is no longer martial arts but summoning".

Haha very nice! See, that scene totally confuses me still. Like when I was watching it at the movies I wasn't watching very carefully and I believed that all those burly earthbenders moved that single rock, which made me go into hysterics. xD But now that I read your comic, and've rewatched the scene online, I see that there is another earthbender in the shot at the very bottom, which creates confusion. Did he move that lone rock, or was it the Earthbending Dance Crew? Maybe somebody should ask Night about that... Either way, their dancing was hilarious and that video that you linked was hilarious. xD Good work!

It is sad when a scene is not clear enough it is impossible to come to a clear conclusion as to who made what.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
It is. I have no idea how Night graduated from film school xD Maybe you should give him some lessons!!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I don't believe that was the actual movie. I think the real movie was lost in a horrible, catastrophic server crash a month before release, and what was in theatres was what they could scrape together from blooper reels and salvaged hard-drives, with a few weeks digital effects put in.

This is just great! they really didn't plan out the screen movements throughly when making this movie did they? Yes its wonderful you maintained the martial art forms but really did you need to have them all doing their Iron Horse dance after the effect has been achieved? Its not like its a flowing martial art like Tai Chi (Water Bending). Just kind of makes it seem like benders aren't at all effective at accomplishing they're feats. It seems so simple in the cartoon then they make it so involved and complicated in the live action. Have the little dance do more, like the ground shifting with each stomp! Have the Water fallow the benders movements more, they are controlling the element, not coaxing it to move.

Who knows what happened with the choreography of certain scenes.
Was it boarded that way? Was it filmed differently on the set? What part did editing play? Who knows.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Its just said. My favorite bending is Water, mostly cause I learned the actual inspiration for it, but that movie made me said for the earth benders. So ineffective were their movements, it was a joke. I'm glad he stayed true to the martial arts but not to the idea of element bending. And I was so excited for this movie too.

Was that the rock chasing them from the last page? 
Anyways, you bring up so many good points about the movie. 
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Plenty of other, better people they can get for cinematography and editing.
I'm actually certain they had good people already, but something went wrong.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Well, you just seem to really know what you're talking about. And you illustrate well with these drawings.
...
Ha! I just noticed that oil rig comment. Nice.

Lets face it... they used most of the money on the special effects

what exactly was this movie like to you rufftoon i never saw it but from seeing the preview long before it came i know it would not be good

I'll let my doodles speak for me.

LAWLS AH mah gawd. I love your edits so much.

I saw ur 'the last aisbender' sketches and i feel the same T_T
When i saw this movie i was like : Hell yeah! this great episodes became a movie!
And yesterday....i always wonder about the cuts and editing and the unlogic things there....
I mean.....what?! The Firebenders don't create their own fire?!
And....at the end....Why ,the hell, they (the fighting firebenders in the watertown) make party ,when the avatar shows his *good* water skills? ....Ehm...Waterbenders? THERE ARE YOU ENEMIES! Blew them up or sth.....and i was shocked about the ...'wave' at the end.....รฒ.รด
But i reallly liked the fight of zuko and aang....(next mistake...Where are they?!)
I have to stop....sry for that^^'

... Maybe a shovel would have been more appropriate... anyway, I find this funny. That rock isn't going to go away, is it?
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
we suggested filming on that oil rig, then it blew up!!!!LOL your awesome

Still running from the rock xD
If they had changed things around, it could've been a lot better.

You are seriously cracking me up with all of these. Much, much, MUCH love.
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
I really am curious about this. Some changes are so easy, or even free (a minute example: calling Grandma 'Gran Gran'). Huh. what I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall when the editing occurred.
Oh, the little rock at the end is PRICELESS. Thank you.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Make me a second fly: you can still go for the editing, I'll go for the director-producers meetings
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
Oh! Do one about the constant "Ring-around-the Rosy" type camera in that scene. I mean really, they could have just zoomed out and it make more sense, like The Matrix.

May you never stop drawing and blessing my day with laughter. <3

Had a LOLCANO throughout the whole thing, but the floaing rock at the end finished me off!

Thank you.
Looking forward to your collab with Isaia. I'm certain there will be gems there!

Ah, this is just... I chuckled at the ending! Forgot about the rock
Great little comic. You both share with us your opinion about how the movie could be clearer, yet you still respect their work and make it all such a fun comic to read lightly.
Great job!

Will they out run the rock? Will the rock get them? dun dun dunnnnnnnnnn
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
One day, they'll let their guard down. Then the rock will strike!

Teehee! Still this is really great. Makes you think, don't it?

Without a doubt M. Night missed some opportune moments to really showcase a great movie. Sadly, even with better cuts and editing it still would not have helped the pace of the movie. I love what you're showing here. As a film student and director/artist I can see what would work better. It actually stinks, cause now I constantly point it out and it 'ruins' the movie for everyone else. Unless they agree with me. In which case I revel in my knowledge!
Seriously though.... What was up with the dancing????!!!????
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
As a film student, you can dissect this movie. It is a great learning tool.

You continue to make me choke with laughter and attract strange looks from those around me with these. X3
