The whiteness is awful, true, and one of the big signs to me that he really just doesn't care. It was the moment that I shifted from "cautious optimis" to "RAGE" and vented spectacularly on AIM for a while. That said, I think Sokka will suffer particularly.
He's wonderful in the show because his driving forces are "naturally I believe in the supernatural since I see it all the time, but that doesn't mean I care for it; science = good, yez bastards!" and "screw destiny; we'll take our fate into our own hands!". As M. Night Shyamalan gets more and more Protection From Editors, his thoughts on the badness of science and the goodness of fate become more and more pronounced. The Happening, Signs, that sort of thing. Sokka's greatest strengths are exactly what Shyamalan hates.
I predict that he will spend the entire movie being proven wrong about everything and having things dropped on his head.
