This live-action adaptation features a lone character with a huge responsibility, similar to the position of Frodo in the Lord of the Rings franchise. In the family-friendly Kung Fu Panda, another group of desperate citizens looking for a "chosen one" to save their world.
Because the Nickelodeon animated TV series upon which this movie is based is titled: Avatar: The Last Airbender, this film is likely to be confused with the James Cameron’s 3D epic Avatar.
