Unlike The Happening, or After Earth, about which I can only infer (infer accurately, I like to think), I actually did sit through M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender. I love a good-bad movie and laugh my ass off at total disasters, but I can assure you, The Last Airbender is not good on any level, bad-good, funny-disastrous or otherwise. It’s just awful. The clip at the 1:04 mark of this is a perfect illustration. I absolutely loved Jonah Hex for how hilariously terrible it was, but M. Night really has a knack for making his terrible movies utterly humorless and self-serious and not enjoyable in any way. It’s impressive in its own way. [ScreenJunkies]
