Last Airbender Draws Race Protests

Hollywood - Movie critics aren't the only ones taking issue with M. Night Shyamalan's new movie "The Last Airbender."

Protestors demonstrated outside the Arclight Cinerama Dome, saying the movie discriminates based on race.

They say the production of the "Airbender" film adaptation discriminated by selecting white lead actors to play characters widely acknowledged by the creators to be Asian or Inuit in the original animated series.

M. Night Shyamalan, meantime, has gone on record saying that the movie is the most ethnically diverse movie ever.
