Katara: less responsible, smaller role, needs to be guided rather than being mom-like. Sokka: less important, lacks leadership and comic relief as in the show. Whitewash of all of the main actors due to studio pressure: wanted jesse mccartney. Effect on theme (no coming of age or maturation in characters) On paper: success million earnings on !150 million budget. Worst movie ever: 6% on rotten tomatoes.
