The film was intended to be the first part of a trilogy, with the next two films being based on books 2 and 3. While the film ultimately made a modest profit at the box office, about $150,000,000 was spent on production with another $130,000,000 spent on advertising, which would bring a total of $280,000,000 spent on one movie. Therefore, The Last Airbender did not gross enough to have Paramount green light the last two sequels. However a new live action remake series of the original animated show is in development for Netflix.
The creators of the show, Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, served as executive producers and were initially supportive of the film production. However, both of them ended up being very unsatisfied with the finished product. In a podcast interview from 2014, Konietzko revealed that "A) We didn't want it to be done at all. Before anyone was attached, we didn't want it. And then B) If it was going to be done, we wanted to do it, but they weren't going to let us. C) When they attached Night, we just thought, 'Well, this is what we've been dealt. We'll just offer help when it's asked of us, and if it's not, we'll stay out of the way.' In the beginning, it was more positive and we offered help, but then we had a big falling out." They've even mentioned how they gave a lot of input that went nowhere as it all got pushed to the wayside.
In the original show, Sokka is a comic relief character. However, no comedy comes from the Sokka in the movie, which garnered significant criticism.
In the television series, the earthbender prison is on a metal ship at sea, and metalbending is not yet invented. In the movie, the prison is on ground, which proves to be a major story problem.
Dev Patel expressed dissatisfaction with the final film.
"Uncle Iroh: [to Zuko, after Aang has escaped] It was not by chance that for generations people have been searching for him, and now you have found him. Your destinies are tied, Zuko."
"Uncle Iroh: There are a lot of pretty girls here Zuko. You could settle down here, and you could have a blessed life. You don't have to continue this Zuko. Prince Zuko: I will show you why we must Uncle. Hey, hey little one, come here. You look like a very smart boy. Tell me what you know about the Prince; the Firelord's son. He spoke out of turn to a general, in defense... for some of his friends, who were going to be sacrificed in a battle. Then Prince Zuko was sentenced to an Agni Kai duel, but when he showed up, it was his father he was to fight. He would not fight his father. Then, his father mocked him, and said, I should bring your sister over here to beat you. Then the father burnt his son, to teach him a lesson. We'll catch him soon Uncle, then we could think about the pretty girls."
