Did Shyamalan even watch Avatar the Last Airbender cartoon series before making the movie?

Question by Aa: Did Shyamalan even watch Avatar the Last Airbender cartoon series before making the movie?
I understand that some things from the cartoon were changed and a lot was cut out because it was a movie, but the movie gets even the most basic of things wrong, such as the pronunciation of Aang’s name. That tells me that he didn’t even watch the movie, but probably got some other guy to do it or read the Wikipedia page about the cartoon show and wrote the script in ten minutes.

That was the twist. That he didn’t watch the cartoon.
