The "Avatar" film series and the "Avatar: The Last Airbender" animated universe frequently draw comparisons or cause amusing mix-ups due to their shared original title. For instance, when it came time to register the name, "Avatar: The Last Airbender" had to add the subtitle "The Last Airbender" because James Cameron's "Avatar" film series had already claimed the primary title. Now, with "Avatar 3: Fire and Ash" on the horizon, another amusing anecdote has emerged.

Michaela Jill Murphy, the voice actress known for her roles as Toph Beifong and other characters in the "Avatar: The Last Airbender" animated series, recently shared a photo on her personal Instagram Stories with "Avatar" film series director James Cameron. In her caption, Murphy wrote: "This gentleman and I have already discussed which Avatar is the best, and his children said 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' is the best." It's clear that even Cameron's own children didn't hesitate to choose the *other* "Avatar" franchise.
