Good choice.

June 25, 2010
A recent LA Times Business article has revealed that not only has Paramount invested $150 million into the production of The Last Airbender, but also a gargantuan $130 million into the marketing campaign, making The Last Airbender more than twice as expensive as any of M. Night’s previous films! Paramount Chief Executive Brady Grey doesn’t seem worried.
“Like every filmmaker, Night has had his hits and misses, but I believed in his vision and that he could execute it,” Grey said, adding “It’s a bold step because he had to create a potential new family franchise.”
With an unprecedented cross-promotional marketing campaign between Viacom owned networks Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central, Spike TV, and CMT, one can hardly fault him for his optimism. However, Airbender does face stiff competition in the third entry in the Twilight Saga, Eclipse, opening a day earlier.
“I’m hoping after they see ‘Eclipse,’ they’ll come see our movie,” Shyamalan said.

Frank Marshall confirmed today that the budget for the planned The Last Airbender trilogy is $250 million, and that they will be spending more on the first film “to create the world.”

Or, if it wasn't clear that time...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic:_Ecks_vs._Sever said:The film was universally panned by critics, who generally regarded it as having no redeeming features, not even the comedic value normally associated with bad films. It is often listed among the worst movies ever made. In March 2007, the movie review site Rotten Tomatoes ranked the film #1 among "The Worst of the Worst" movie list, with 107 "rotten" reviews and no "fresh" ones. Financially, the film was also a box office failure, recouping just over $19.9 million of its $70 million budget.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic:_Ecks_vs._Sever said:The film was a massive box office failure, grossing less than 30% of its budget at the box office. It also received mostly negative reviews from film critics. Rotten Tomatoes ranked Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever number 1 on its "The 100 Worst Reviewed Films of All Time" list. All of the 107 available reviews gave the film negative ratings, which resulted in a 0% fresh rating. The film was ranked number one worst movie of the decade.
Ok, but what did Deci and dwarfkicker think?

dwarfkicker said:Seeing it tonight. If anything it'll get out the foul taste that Eclipse left in my mouth
Now that's a sound strategy, because after that anything is an upgrade, and a movie with predators is practically salvation.
dwarfkicker said:I'm willing to bet what it's going to come down to is how highly anyone regards the previous films.
Proj2501 said:Here's something major that pisses me the fuck off. The scene from the trailer where Brody is covered is 15+ Predator laser sights...

...NEVER FUCKING HAPPENS. Purely bullshit to puff up the trailer.
Aazealh said:Then again, there's something inherently retarded with that scene. Why are some Predators aiming at his shoulders, arms, ribs? Why aren't they all pointing at his head or heart? It's obvious no one gave this any thought beyond the "COVERED IN RED DOTS" aspect.
dwarfkicker said:I'm still optimistic. Seeing it tonight. If anything it'll get out the foul taste that Eclipse left in my mouth
Really? I'll never ever watch any of those emo-bullshit movies. But I guess PREDATORS will seem amazing after that fag-fest.
