The Gaang all grown up
>>152786774I'm disappointed they didn't give Zuko a beard. Grown men wearing beards seems to be standard custom in the Fire Nation.
>>152786768I wish we got this as the sequel instead of the lame Korra one. The characters from the original series are way more charismatic
>>152786768Where’s best girl?
Who is the nigga in the back
>>152786768>>152786897Toph seems to have biceps. Good.
>>152786897>neither Toph nor Katara grew a notable rackBooooBOOOOOOOO
I hope Katara gets to take her clothes off
>>152786768Whomst?
>>152786886Yeah we know, you haven't shut up about it for 10 years now.
>>152786768RIP Suki
>>152786961I hope the movie has new water tribe girls
MOMMY
>>152786768God damn Batista's character is fucking badass.
Anyone else think some of outfits are a little awkward here? Like they have a little bit too much going on and over designed?
>>152786866>>152786774Nah, they did just enough to capture the best parts of Ozai's design but with Zuko. The long regal hair is more than enough
>>152786768feels pretty on point
>>152786768>>152786897>>152786964>Dave Bautista will play a villain >it took 20 years, but Bryke finally conceded and made an Airbender villain
>>152786768>no sukieven fucking korra acknowledged she was part of the crew
>>152787119Uh Zaheer?
I can't wait for /co/ to hate this too
>>152787133he was a larper, this guy is young enough to conceivably be an actual Airbender
>>152787141Reddit is that contrarian fag
>>152787150How am I the contrarian? You guys have hated everything else, including the comics featuring the OG characters.
>>152786897>safe horny shitlame and gay
>>152787175>including the comics Yeah because they SUCK
>>152787175NTA but /co/ and the rest of 4chan by extension has garbage taste and garbage takes. Accepting AI slop was the last straw for me.
>>152787175You can stop pretending this sentiment is unique to /co/, everything post ATLA has been divisive at best.
>>152787175the comics are entirely manufactured around controversy like Zuko becoming a cuck and Aang severing his connection to Roku. The ones that aren’t written like that just aren’t that good.
>>152787224The lost adventures were the only ones worth reading.
>>152786866Twink Zuko sells more merch
>>152787175gee i wonder why....
>>152787175Bro is defending the comics and say he's not a contrarian LMAO.
>>152786774Hot. Like Jinshi the eunuch.
>>152787205Fuck off coomer
>>152786897>They will all be voiced by literalwho DEIs
>>152787237And the shamalamadong tie-in
>>152787275I actually had no idea this even existed, the art looks alright too.
>>152787275>>152787287i might have to give this a read... Link?
>>152787175People here don't even like book 3
>>152787287Yeah it’s pretty cool>>152787299https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/The-Last-Airbender-Prequel-Zuko-s-Story
>>152787040yeah, little Toph is still superior to any adult version.
>>152787040Will watch for her
>>152787099It is kind of weird they are wearing the same outfits they had as kids. Keep the colors because there's lore reasons behind them, but the actual outfits could be mixed up more
>>152787331>samefagging and making up shit because you got btfo so hard
>>152787175>>152787211>>152787212>>152787222>>152787224>>152787237>>152787244What's worse, the comics or korra?t. anon who just finished the original series a few days ago
>>152787352I'm just glad they look recognizeable. that's the most you can ask for with the hacks in charge
>>152787363Also in case anybody gives a shit about my opinion>Really impressed by the art, animation, and storyboarding, the show consistently looks great>Additionally, the show has a pretty high consistent quality in other regards, there's zero bad episodes, though I'd also say there's not a lot of moments that totally blew me away>Some of the ones that did or got a serious chuckle out of me were Kyoshi saying she killed Chin, the entirety of Toph's introduction episode, the "just a bear" joke, Toph inventing Metalbending, jacked Iroh, the entirety of The Beach episode, the scam montage, anytime bloodbending happened, Aang's sleep deprived hallucinations, and the final agni kai with Zuko and Azula>Toph is the best character, I'm glad that the series mostly did a good job at contuining to make her feel as overpowered as she does intially rather then nerfing her to not trivialize things>Zuko is second best, wasn't a fan of how incompetent he seemed originally but the writers seemed to realize he needed to seem more capable pretty quickly and his redemption arc was obviously solid. I like the comedy of an edgelord who is actually a dork>Katara is my third favorite, though I'm not a fan of the emotionally driven conflicts she had with Aang, Sokka, and Toph, and it seemed a little contrived that by her own admission she went from "barely" being able to waterbend to being a master>Azula is my final favorite, initially I was disappointed because I was expecting/wanting her to be a frenzied battle maniac who lives for the rush of a fight and instead she was kinda just a smarmy bitch, but as we got more human or simply petty moments with Zuko and her friends, I thought that sold her better as somebody who was actually a sociopath and made her manipulation and mean-ness feel more real rather then just cartoon villainy, plus I did get to see her go berserk in that final fightHappy to answer further questions if anons have any for me
>>152787373Nobody cares
>>152787363Definitely the comics. Korra isn't even terrible. Book 2 is shit for sure, but 1,3, and 4 have redeemable moments. I personally really like book 1 of Korra. Overall a mid follow up though
>>152787373You had aang near the bottom, so i know you know ball. What was your favorite episode overall?
>>152787352Yeah partly, Zuko and Aang work find imo but something else about the other three's outfits irk me. I don't know any other way to describe it than maybe "game of thrones" like. Just very clunky.
>>152787390The lows of korra (end of s1 all the way to the end of season 2) damage the entire IP, but man it had potential with the right writers/editors
>>152787409The top piece on Sokka is just a terrible looking blue. Doesn't look right with the rest of his outfit. Katara is just dressed the exact same with an added pouch
>>152786897Wow real downgrade for water tribe drip
>>152787355?
>>152787399Either The Blind Bandit or The Beach.They did an incredible job making Toph feel like a badass, I knew about her (and Azula) in before starting the series, but even knowing her gimmick and that she's a fan favorite in advance, I was blown away by how cool she was and how well directed, shot, and animated her fights in the episode were.The Beach is the comedic peak of the series, which is actually saying something since I think in general a lot of the jokes in the show decently landed for me, but the juxtaposition of Azula, Zuko, and Mai (and the contrast they have with Ty Lee) in normal social situations was hilarious and I never saw the swerve into serious character exploration in the latter half of the episode coming. Azula especially benefits from The Beach, without that episode I don't think I'd like her even half as much
Zutara
>>152787470>I never saw the swerve into serious character exploration in the latter half of the episode coming.Haven't seen the breakfast club huh? that's what that episode is based on.
>>152787476I concur
>>152786964guy who is frozen in ice but gets found by aang
>>152787040She should have thicker thighs. Earthbending's power is rooted in the lower body and Toph was holding horse stances like a champ even as a kid. She should have Chun Li-tier thighs as an adult.
>>152787476is shit
>>152787504Really? That's disappointing
>>152787504they could easily ignore this, but part of the korra and eu lore is that aang was only able to stay in the iceberg for so long because he was the avatar
>>152787521All that’s been said officially is that he’s a villain.
>>152787363That's tuff but the comics for sure... Korra has it's moments but it's not a very good follow up, not even s1. Especially not with that last episode and the way things get resolved. The setting itself isn't thought out very well and the majority of the plot is juggled with some pro sport based on bending taking up too much time and the anti bender movement that makes no sense. A lot of the bending rules established in the previous series also get kinda thrown out in favor of the boring pro bending style, this itself could be interesting but it's never expanded upon in a meaningful way. Maybe watch season 1.I think most of the comics were written post-korra and there is absolutely no quality control. Literally bad fan-fic tier with a sprinkle of idpol shit brought in thanks to Korrasami being confirmed off screen. Thanks Bryke!>>152787436>The top piece on Sokka is just a terrible looking blueRight? The collar and sleeves look awkward as well but I'm mainly referring to stuff like the random pelt being hoisted up on Katara's outfit or the odd layering on Toph's outfit. The boots don't look right either.
>>152786774grown up azula must be sexy as fuck
>>152787436That pouch is where she keeps her water tribe WEED at.
>>152787363The comics. It's much easier to divorce Korra from the rest of the series, so even though its bad and shits on the OG show's legacy, in and out of universe, at least the OG cast is (mostly) sparred from Bryke's awful writing.
>>152787555>like the random pelt being hoisted up on Katara's outfitWhy do they all have belts like they're in the WWE?
>>152787040>pits and titsNice
>>152787040I get people who like loli Toph but you gotta admit this shit is fucking MILES beyond her Korra get up, hell she looks less butch in this new art despite having all that muscle. I like it
>>152787600That's what I've been thinking! It really only works for Zuko's outfit because it doesn't stick out like sore thumb. A lot of more generic fantasty stuff tends to over use belts and I don't get why it's thing here when the orginal or even Korra never had this problem.
Canonically breedable
>>152787373>>152787399>>152787470Also a final thought I didn't have space for:If I have one critique for the series, beyond just not having many super high-highs even if it was consistently pretty good to great, it's that I feel like Ozai is more an obstacle then a character in hos own right. It's not a serious issue, but I do think it would have benefitted from at least fleshing him out as much as Azula was. Not necessarily more sympathetic, just seeing more of him in terms of backstory or interactions with other characters in general rather then him only really being a character for 2 and a half episodesI also felt like Aang's training didn't feel like it mattered much: He was getting beaten by Ozai untill he activated the Avatar state, at which point he dominated in the fight, and if the Avatar state is so powerful from it allowing you to use all the power and knowledge of past avatars, then that would mean that Aang would have crushed Ozai even back in Book 1 using it.
>>152787679Zuko should have bred her not Aang.
Realistically, the Gaang should all look like lean, mean killing machines since they're all master martial artists and have BEEN master martial artists for more than a decade at this point. They should look like, I guess, a jiujitsu master, in terms of body composition. Aang, since he uses so many different styles, could resemble an MMA fighter who knows multiple disciplines.
>>152786897Doesnt this look lazy to anyone else? It looks like they just put the heads of their younger versions on adult bodies, and grew their hair to look more mature.
>>152787730Outfits are more detailed than their heads
>>152787730for katara, aang & sokka yea. Atleast with zuko and toph there was actual thought put into their designs besides rehash the og look
Well then, FET updates are gonna suck.
>>152787111>>152787262What is this about voice actors, I vaguely remember reading about it some years ago but I thought only Toph was going to be replaced
>>152786768This is going to be such a fucking shitshowBryke are idiots, and ehasz is an idiot, and ehasz 's wife is an even dumber idiot, but when they were pushing back at each other they put out something orders of magnitude better than anything they would have made themselves.Now we're going to get the worst parts of Phantom Menace and attack of the clones
>>152787822Replaced to be be more accurate to the characters....for an animated production for some reason.
>>152787822They replaced everyone including Zuko's VA, Dante Basco. he's now being played by the korean twink who plays mark from invincible.
>>152787111>Scene made specifically to show that Aang is hot nowKek, I'm expecting this one to happen.
>>152787840Which is bullshit because Aang's new va is korean not tibettan
>>152787847Jesus Steven Yeun? Zuko's going to just like him isn't he?>>152787852Same kek
>>152787847To be fair, the adult characters shouldn't necessarily sound like the kid characters, especially Aang and Toph who were only 12 in the original show. Like I'm not sure Aang's balls had even dropped by the time the OG show was over.
>>152787840>>152787847Fucking Christ almighty glad I won't be watching it in english
>>152787852Today I will remind them
>>152787863Now that you mention it, a japanese dub might be the play. Imagine aang sounding like Tanjiro or Zuko sounding like Ichigo
>>152787860Their voice actors are all adults, only Aang should get a recast since his VA is retired but everyone else still works. Zuko being recasted is alright too, Dante Basco's voice just sounds wrong for the character
>>152787893>Dante Basco's voice just sounds wrong for the characterFuck off Faggot
>>152787904Calm down Dante, go ask Mae about her opinion on Zutara again
>>152787853Well yeah I dont disagree and racially "accurate" casting here is just throwing a random asian person at it. Studios really don't care all but try to appear they do by doing dumb shit like that. >>152787860I really doubt Toph or Aang's VAs sound the same as they did when they were kids. Aang's VA moved on from voice acting anyway so recasting him wasn't an issue but everyone else was.>>152787870I remember... I'm torn between thinking it's their inflated egos or not because character like Jeong Jeong, the swamp benders and Sokka's master were based on people they knew.
>>152787119>another airbender pre-TenzinHow?
>>152787919>ProjectingYup you're a massive faggot. Kill yourself.
>>152787822>>152787847Aang's VA no longer acts, Katara's VA said she won't reprise the role and I think Toph's VA said the same. No idea about Sokka's. They only gave Dante the boot because the studio wanted a big name to slap on it.
>>152786768/Co/lleagues, with my hand in my heart I ask you: How painful will this transmedia be compared to the series or for the IP? If the writing of the comics was already debatable, not to mention the reputation of the past spin-off and the next spin-off of the spin-off on the horizon, which does not bode well...
>>152787953Jack was down to play sokka again, so he's in the same boot as Dante. Mae said she isn't reprising the role, not that she wouldn't if given the chance.
>>152787953Wasn't Mae not returning a result of the racially accurate casting announcement? Like that being the reason why she won't portray Katara?
>>152787978Not sure, but that definately is the case for the korra VA
>>152787953>>152787971Toph VA said the same, she would have loved to return. Are the new VAs good actors or will we go through the shitty VA for Ada Wong phase
>>152787954Avatar is an entirely whipped-and-beaten franchise. At this point it has far more bad content than good content within its folds.Good Avatar Content: Avatar: The Last Airbender, some of the comicsBad Avatar Content: all the rest of the comics, Legend of Korra, the terrible M. Night Shyamalan movie, the somehow-even-more-terrible Netflix series, the terrible novels, and now this turd that's ready to drop.You know that Penny Arcade comic where Gabe and Tycho compare SEGA's handling of the Sonic franchise to a snuff film? That's basically Bryke's handling of the Avatar franchise at this point.
>>152787984Steven Yeun is objectively serviceableSokka is being played by a literal whoKatara is being played by a generic Native american VAToph is being played by the VA for trixie tang back in the day if only because she is legally blind.Aang is being played by a zionist kpop singer.Make of this what you will...
>>152787971>>152787978Hm I remembered Mae being in favor of having an indigenous actress play Katara but I might be thinking of Janet who was definitely vocal about why she wouldn't return as Korra.
>>152788009>zionistOh that's not going to end well for this thing.
>>152787983>>152788010It was definitely the case>As Whitman alludes to in her comment, stepping aside from playing Katara allows for more diversity in casting. The new live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender show has proven its commitment to casting culturally appropriate actors for its Asian and Indigenous characters.>"And to have actors come in, who honestly fit the role much better"https://screenrant.com/avatar-last-airbender-animated-movies-katara-mae-whitman/
>>152787840This is to blame, along with people like ProZD who advocated for "authentic casting"
>>152788028Mae you poor fool....
>>152788040Obligatory fuck Adi shanker. christ that netflix DMC is an abomination
>>152788024it's a press nightmare waiting to happen. the fuck were they thinking
>>152787943He’s dark-skinned, so maybe some airbenders fled to Avatar India and continued their bloodlines there
>>152788042It's pr essentially, she's isn't going to say anything other than good things about it even it's fucking stupid and makes no sense. >>152788040Oh yeah the guy who had his own animated fan fic of him interacting with Apu and his self insert magically convincing Apu to drop his accent( what???) It's funny how an over educated rich kid couldn't fathom a character having an accent(even it wasn't accurate) and viewed it as something he could drop lel.
>>152786768>another airbender has hit the continuity
>>152787111I would add: -Recyclable stuffs or things already known/seen from the main series.-A forcement with some political theme (extreme identity activism, etc.) in a forced or obligated way by stubbornness "to the script".
>>152787111You just know they will pander to Zutarafags in some way
>>152788125By all means we should add onto or make our own bingo card for this.
>>152787953>>152787984There's at least some level of justification updating post-timeskip character voices nearly twenty years after the fact. But it still bums me the Hell out.
>>152788136Zuko wont be allowed to be anywhere near Katara as has been the case since atla ended. The creators are still buckbroken over zutarafags not choosing them so expect >>152787852
>>152787145Zaheer was an actual Airbender, albeit not a true Air Nomad.
>>152788136Bryke’s pathological hatred of Zutara makes that incredibly unlikely. The pandering would have made the most sense during the promise comic but they were put as far apart as possible
>>152787679Look, they added an orange ribbon as a visual sign she's allied with the airbenders.
>>152787275Surprisingly good art style
>>152788182>>152788188Then it'll be a reverse pandering then where they'll constantly talk about how happy they are with Aang/Mai
>>152788244That's right snookums.
>>152788244Duh. it will be met with crickets because the shipping in avatar is terribly written, but at this point no one but the terminally 2008 shippers cares anymore. Just make Zuko a badass, Aang not a pansy and Mai/Katara hot.
>>152788205what about a little airbender womb tattoo
>>152788188I never got the vibe they outright hated Zutara. Just the rabid fan insistence to change their actual plan for an arc they were already committed too. If anything the romance in Korra was them trying to do right by that demographic with the spunky waterbending protag getting with the angsty orphaned firebender. Shame that the love triangle was enough of a mess to backfire and take down nearly half of two seasons with it.
They better adapt this scene from the comics
>>152788205>orangeAnon I....
>>152788286Actually looks more like a water tribe motif.
>>152788310Oh hey yeah what a coincidence.
>>152787128she can't take an action pose because she's incredibly pregnant in the film
>>152787839I'm glad someone else acknowledges that Bryke are retards and haven't made anything good.Remember when Netflix's ATLA adaption announced that Bryke left the project and everyone threw a bitch fit and claimed it was because they were trying to change the story, only for it to be revealed Bryke wanted the Netflix adaption to follow their horrid original idea for Avatar where Uncle Iroh is evil and shit, while the Netflix showrunners wanted to stay faithful? Hilarious.This Aang movie will just have more obnoxious Kataang garbage (if Katara calls him "sweetie" like in the comics or has a scene admiring his abs, I will vomit on my couch) goofy villains, and Korra-style fights where bending is just punching really hard.>>152788182>>152788188Katara and Zuko could have had an amazing friendship even if the writers didn't wanna take the romance route. The fact they're so bitchmade they made them act like strangers after Zuko sacrificed himself to protect her is pathetic.>>152788310I'm 100% certain it's just Air Nomad orange, although I'm not sure why she'd need to wear something like that other than Bryke wanting to put an Aang-collar on her.
>>152786897Why is Sokka wearing such a vibrant green-blue? He used to wear Water Tribe apparel that had the same washed out blue color as Katara. This looks pretty dumb in a series where color coding was meticulous before.
>>152788430Literally got saddlebags on her with that pouch-belt.>pelt
>>152788430>I'm 100% certain it's just Air Nomad orangeI know, i'm just fucking around.>The fact they're so bitchmade they made them act like strangers after Zuko sacrificed himself to protect her is pathetic.Betas will be betas. the obvious solution was to have Zuko and Katara become good friends without any cuckshit to show that things ultimately worked out with who they chose even if Zutara could have worked (hell you could have paired up their kids to throw a bone like bleach did). keeping them away from each other so unnaturally just feeds into insecurity, but bryke suffer from too much shipper brainrot to see it.
>>152786964I assume this guy is another Zaheer, probably his dad or something
>>152788476>I know, i'm just fucking around.It's really cringe that Bryke need to plaster Aang's colors all over her though. She's even got an Air Nomad orange hairband. We get it bro, she's Aang's girl. >the obvious solution was to have Zuko and Katara become good friendsYeah, they had such nice chemistry together that them not being close friends is stupid. If someone almost died to protect me that guy would be my #1 homie for life and the godfather to my children, that sort of loyalty is timeless.
So are we going to talk about the fact that there’s a 90% chance Suki dies in this thing
>>152786897As other anons said I don’t like the contrasting blues between Sokka and Katara. I understand wanting to differentiate them but this is a simple case of overdesign.
Personally, I never wanted an adult Gaang story. The implication at the end of the series is that they're all the most powerful benders on Earth now and live in a newly peaceful world. Hard to write a conflict with those two swords hanging over your script.
>>152788554Yes she probably will but not before that one writer squeezes in a random Zuki scene
>>152788575I think the comics found crafty ways to challenge the gaang but I respect your opinion. At the very least the search for Zuko’s mom is worth getting explored. Also Azula probably but the comics are fucking her up by trying to push her as a victim of nurture.
The Ellisons should force Bryke into using the og voice actors. I don’t really know what happened there. Really bums me out.
>>152786768I want to see Yakone
>>152787730Avatar designs were always fucking lazy. Every element is color coded, wow, groundbreaking.
>>152788611>But why do women keep thirsting over him when our bald vegan twink exists, Bryke thought to eachother
>>152786768What happened to that promo image with bearded Aang
>>152788564It would be fine if Sokka was just wearing a different shade of Water Tribe blue, but his clothing isn't even a part of the WT color palette. It's almost green.
>>152788660What
>>152788660you mean the one from lok from like 14 years ago?
>>152788611>Alexa, play "Shogun" by TriviumPure kino. Now this is the Zuko 10 year old me wanted
>>152788667this is from about 2 years ago, is that what you're thinking of
>>152787287
>>152788679meant for>>152788660
>>152788629Busy fucking their stepmom in the southern water tribe
>>152786768This show is highly satanic because it prommotes the false religion of Buddhism
The comics did more damage than Korra
>>152786964That's Gronk, don't you remember? He helped Aang learn the secret Airbender technique in Book 4
>>152788714Nobody in charge of this franchise has any idea what they're doing anymore. It's all so dogshit. I can't even get excited for this movie because I just know it'll kick me in the face then fuck me in the ass.
>>152786768Aang is so ugly. like holy shit
>>152788009>Toph is being played by the VA for trixie tang back in the day if only because she is legally blind.Why is this so funny to me
>>152788766Somebody should draw Toph having one of Trixie's "TELL ME I'M PRETTY" freakouts.
>>152788430Everyone but Bryke wanted Zutara in the writing room. Aang and Katara barely have a scene together in the fucking 4 part finale. But somehow Zuko and Katara who stuck like glue in the finale and even had one jump in to save the other from lightning doesn't get any acknowledgement
>>152788811Everything falls into place when you realize >>152787870 . That's the explanation behind Kataang. Aang is Mike's self-insert, and Katara is Mike's waifu. Of course they had to get together. This also explains why Katara is somehow a waterbending prodigy out of nowhere and climbs the skill tree to absolute mastery so fast. It's because she's Mike's waifu.
>>152788805OMG where is a drawfag when you need one!
If Katara was helbent on killing Zuko like some people say she was, she would have not let Zuko go on a field trip with just him and Aang without supervision
>>152788811‘Everyone’ is strong, I’m sure Kataang had more than just Bryke on its side
When does this come out?How long is it?Will it be good? Will the old voice actors return?Does it retcon Korra?Is the brown airbender dude Indian?Will this generate lots of porn?These are my questions.
>>152788818>This also explains why Katara is somehow a waterbending prodigy out of nowhere and climbs the skill tree to absolute mastery so fastNo, no, no. It is not that she's a prodigy, she's just the bestest hard worker ever!...the show pretending she wasn't a prodigy after somehow blasting to Azula's and Toph's level with about a month of proper training to their years of work is obnoxious.
Ehasz couple wanted to pitch a post war book 4. Instead Bryke wanted Shalaymandingdong movie bucks
Oh great, so it’s gonna be a bunch shitty Asian voice actors chosen because of their race and not because they can provide quality voice work that suits the character. At least Steven Yuen seems to be decent at voice acting.
>>152787363The comics are horrendously bad. You can immediately tell they were written by trannies.
>>152787243Did they really make Iroha apologize for a comedic moment?
>>152788847Giancarlo did, as did hendrick that i know of. there were kataniggers in the writers room besides bryke, otherwise nick would have overruled the creators if the consensus was against them.
>>152788465He fucked Suki so hard she beat a little earth kingdom into him.
How the fuck can you be upset at kataang? Aang is the fucking protagonist. Katara was his girl from literally the very first moment he laid eyes on her in the first episode. One shitty episode about her learning to trust Zuko does not negate the countless episodes of romantic build up between Aang and Katara. Zuko tards piss me off so much I swear to god. Wish the stupid cunt was still evil.
>it's schizo hours
>>152788899Yes, and it sucked. thats all you need to know
>>152788564If they wanted Sokka to have a separate look, they could have reused the Day of Black Sun colors.
>>152788926Seriously... they have easy layups like this and choose not to take them. Fuckin retards man
>>152788914I generally dislike characters having to marry the girl they were in a relationship with at 14 because she was depicted on screen the most, lazy cartoon logic that seems too fairytale and unrealistic to a world thats posing as more mature. Aka everyone assuming that Mai and Zuko marry, Sokka and Suki marry, etc.
>>152788863all these questions could be answered by reading this thread and/or google, you massive faggot
>>152788931>>152788926Calm down retards. He’s still dressed in blue. Do you have a fit everytime you see a waterbender dressed in a purplish blue too?
>>152788937>feeding you's to another muhship derailFuck him and retards like you always taking the bait in these threads
>>152788945Kill yourself slopeater.
>>152788811Yeah, I've heard about that for years now. Bryke got so pissy they changed the script to reduce scenes like this too, lmfao.
>>152788940Make me
>>152788954How about you fix your eyes
>>152788914Kid with a crush on his babysitter except he marries her 1 year later.His balls haven't even dropped yet.
>>152788289KORRA SEX
>>152788962>you cant see if you dont this generic sloppa>>152788954
>>152788937>too fairytaleWell it’s a good we’re watching a tale and not a documentary on real life events
>>152788964We just making stuff up now?
Welp... this thread has run it's course in record time. Hope to see more leaks when this probably gets moved up to summer so paramount can just face the music since they seem to know they wont profit off of this.
Hero Azula incoming
>>152788978God I hope they boot Bryke after this movie flops. Surely it'll finally happen after Seven Havens fails, right?
Zuko didn’t get kataraHe also didn’t get maiBut he did canonically get cuckedAnd your pathetic zutara 2.0 in Korra imploded also instantlyNow we have to bring the goat aang back to save this dying franchiseEat shit zuko fags. Stay winning aanGODS.
>>152788991Aang has ng in it so my mind views him as a spiritual nigger.
>>152788978Well, there's always the Netflix live action
>>152788990With the ellisons calling the shots, that and Natla continuing to suceed without bryke might be the final nail in the coffin. Once they get WB/DC, they wont need these two jews anyway.
>>152788998Zuko has uk in it so my mind see’s him as a the cUcK he is
>>152789012Okay that's pretty good too.>>152789009My one wish is that this happens and we get new writers for any future Avatar projects. I don't think they'll be very good, but right now it's not hard to write something better than the 2 stooges. Everything they create feels like a lobotomite or severely autistic person made it.
>>152787128God this scene kills me everytime
>>152787275They should rerelease this with the cartoon designs for zuko and irohAzula already uses her cartoon design in it
>>152789074everyone but zuko and iroh use canon designs
>>152789082Actually zuko is probably close enough, they would just need to redraw iroh
In Korra, everyone gets statues except Katara. Katara was not in Jinora's tattoo ceremony. When her family was in danger, she did not fight despite old people being badass in Avatar. Even Toph and Zuko fought. Katara stayed in teh Healing Huts where she belonged.Thanks Bryke
>>152787040if you don't want to fuck Toph at any stage of her life you never really loved heryes even granny
>>152787363comics and it's not even closekorra at its absolute worst is abysmal dogshit and it still manages to beat out the fucking comics in terms of quality
Will we see Ursa and Kiyi?
>>152789169Because she's Mike's waifu and he has some very funny ideas about men and women if you poke around some of his quotes.
Anyone find it hilarious that Aang is now the tallest?
>>152789236I doubt it, The Search was pretty heavily panned, and it’s not like the show where you can just watch it on Netflix or reruns or whatever, you have to buy or pirate it.
>>152789268I enjoy the irony of it. To be honest I've sometimes fantasized about Toph growing up to be some huge strongfat behemoth, even though logically she'd probably be only of modest height because both her parents were.
>>152786774Jinshi-sama...
>>152787617For sure, glad they fixed it.
>>152786768Too bad its tainted by the fact we know they all go to shit as they get older
>>152787515
Here's all the known leaks so far>Film is set ten years after the end of ATLA>Primarily set in proto-Republic City, before the steampunk aesthetic and technology>The Gaang have their own base base in the city called the "Unity Tower", resembles the council hall from Korra>Aang and Katara live in a luxurious apartment together>Main villain is a (real) airbender with full tattoos voiced by Dave Bautista>Plot revolves around an ancient airbending staff that was created by a previous Avatar named Sonam>An air temple with an aztec/hindu aesthetic and a city surrounding it will also be a location in the movie>Animation will be 2D with 3D elements (like the 90s/2000s Disney movies)>Might include characters introduced in the comics (like Toph's metalbender students and Zuko's mom/half-sister)
Avatar is saved...
>an Airbender villainGoodness! What a unique and totally original idea that hasn't been done in Avatar.
>>152788951Quit being such a coward about shipping.
>>152789893Tbf we've ever only had one airbender villain, even accounting for the EU stuff like Kyoshi and Yangchen.
>>152789564>lot revolves around an ancient airbending staffHow will that work?Avatar never had enchanting, for lack ofa better term, in its world, all items in the setting were rather mundane.Sokka's Meteoric Sword is probably the closest I can think of, and even then it was just a sharp sword that looked cool
>>152789920>Avatar never had enchanting, for lack ofa better term, in its world, all items in the setting were rather mundane.That's like the exact opposite of everyone's else's opinion. Did you mean to be a contrarian on purpose or d ou you legitimately think this is the consensus among the fans?
>>152789927Nta but what the fuck are you talking about? What magical objects and enchantments appear in the original show?
>The animation was provided by Flying Bark Productions and Studio Mir, and combines 2D hand-drawn animated characters with 3D computer-animated environments.And dropped
>>152789927I legitimately can't think of any "Magic items" in the Avatar setting, i.e., items that someone crafted that did magical effect Steampunk shit like Airships, tanks or the big drill exist, but those just use bending to make power efficient, like Mako generating power in Korra, but the steampunk technology itself isn't magical
>>152789743Watch Toph stands around with her arms at her side the entire time.
pitchads we sniffing good today
>>152789927Bot post
Could be enchanted by spirits since the series has no fucking idea how it wants the spirits to function, perchance?
I'm a fly on the wall and>There's going to be a polycule somewhere>Aang will be bisexual>Katara and Aang will have relationship issues>Sokka goes on an apology tour for misogyny >Zuko gets cucked, but everyone already knows that>Toph gets turned into an annoying girl boss>Less mature than ATLA, script reads like a teen drama parody
>>152787363Korra mainly bastardizes itself and throws a bit of dirt on the original characters, mostly through ineptitude. The comics directly bastardize the original material and they do it hard.>Making Mai, the chick who was willing to turn on fucking Azula and risk death just for Zuko's sake, dump Zuko for some other random dude
>>152789564>The Gaang have their own base base in the city called the "Unity Tower", resembles the council hall from KorraDo they really need their own little Hall of Justice complete with a cheesy name?
>>152790148Kinda make then sound almost tyrannical.
>>152790148It's something that would have worked better in Korra due to its 30s almost pulp aesthetic, but Korra is a series of missed opportunities
the humiliation will continue until morale improves
>>152790170Remember Thano?
>>152789564>Kiyi walking out like the audience is supposed to know her
why is this franchise so cursed
>>152786964evil sokka... >"sokka how could you?" - aang
>>152790224no
>>152787569She’s definitely dead by now
>>152789965>coolest animation studios working on it>droppedIdiot
>>152790262Because it was lightning in a bottle and no one involved can independently recreate it. The best they can do is profane it with their attempts to recreate it.
Aang breeding Katara hard INCOMING
>>152790466>only 3 kids
>>152789169Katara's complete inaction during Book 2's civil war was so retarded.And they later have Toph try and justify it away in Book 4.
>>152787569>She turns out to not have grown one centimeter
>>152789255He sounds based.
>>152790540I think their idea of how much they wanted the old cast showing up at all changed a lot between S1/2 and S3/4. Like, Katara acts like pretty much everyone else is gone, but then it turns out no, it's just Sokka.
>>152786768>>152786897>no SukiWhy does Bryke hate her so much? Do they prefer Sokka dying alone and childless?
>>152790466don't let the zutaraniggers see this
>>152787175the pre-graphic novel comics, the ones made for the magazines and free comic book day, were really good
>>152786897Toph's pits...
>>152789169this was such garbage>>152790571>writing a character out of character because your retarded politics bias youin no way is that based. it's the exact same thing as making iroh apologize for trying to feel up the mercenary chick.
>>152786910We already knew that from Korra
>>152786910they're asians..
>>152790052>Toph gets turned into an annoying girl bossShe always was
>>152790148>>152790154So when the heroes become detached and exile themselves from the world they saved, it's disrespectful to their achievements. But when they directly involve themselves in managing political affairs and worldly threats, it's tyrannical now?
>>152789914quit being a shiptard you fucking fag
>>152791038I mean I think it's weird they have a tower.Why would they need a tower?
>>152787978>>152787983>>152788010>>152788028I'm glad ATLA felt complete when it ended. I can just ignore this shit and pretend nothing happened after it.
>>152786768Like 70% of the appeal of the original show was that the girls were the sexy ages :/
she has grown...
>>152786768For some reason I really dislike most avatar fans from around 2020 onwards, that's when Covid was going one and I think around that time ATLA was put onto Netflix, attracting the most obnoxious politically obsessed tards on the planet, who talk about toxic masculinity and other culture war shit. Or maybe this is all in my head, I don't know
>>152791341Eh hard to say because Avatar always attracted those types, but the last ten years of politics and especially covid have probably drowned out all the normie/non libtarded fans in online presence
>>152786768This is Suki erasure
>>152790052>Katara watching Aang take off his shirt, glancing at his ab and thinking something like "Wow, Aang is so grown-up now...!">Aang voice deepest out of everyone else in the Gaang >Katara calls Aang "sweetie" every 5 minutes>Aang has at least 1 scene showing how mature he is now with another character commenting on it to glaze him>Katara revealed to be pregnant somewhere midway through the movie, continues to engage in combat anyways to girlboss.
>>152791340by this logic zuko >>152786897 now has an incredible rack does he?>>152791598why wouldn't she continue to bend while pregnant? waterbending is always portrayed heavily in tune with femininity, both bending and a woman's body pattern themselves after the cycles of the moon, it all links up in that vaguely woo-woo mystical sense
>>152787128>>152788554>>152790806Suki is a kiyoshi warrior before she's a member of the gaang. She may help out the avatar and his allies but her ultimate loyalty is to the kiyosho warriors. The only reason she joined the gaang at the end of the show was because the rest of the kiyoshi warriors were imprisoned and it was the only way she could have freed them.She immediately puts the uniform back on the moment she can.Why is this so hard for suki fags to understand
>>152791341You're completely right. The VA changes, the casting of the live action, the comics being shittier than they were is all thanks to ATLA going to Netflix.
>>152791626>why wouldn't she continue to bend while pregnant?I mean dangerous combat situations, not just training and stuff. There will probably be cheap/forced drama with her and Aang about it.
>>152789169iirc at least some of it had to do with her voice actress being expensive and i think her (eva's) age (she's actually turning 102 this year)
>>152791652Yeah, she's in the show for a handful of episodes and doesn't form any meaningful bonds within the Gaang besides with Sokka. To the comics' credit they did fix this a little bit and gave her a friendship with Zuko.
>>152786768I bet Toph has a massive ass in her prime
>>152786768who dat nigga on the left
>>152791894Bautista's character
Zuko zaddy...
>>152789169Everyone else got a statue because Katara was originally going to be the only memeber of the original cast that was going to appear in show. Giving the rest lf the gaang statues was a way of acknowledging their presence in the show's world while not actually showing them. Remember LOK was originally planned as single season mini series so they never considered having to explain what happened to the rest of the gaang preferring to leave it up to the audience's imagination. Of course that all fell apart when they brought back Toph and Zuko purely for fan service. Then they had to make an excuse why Toph never showed up at least with Zuko fire lord business was a easy enough to accept.Also Katara was 80. What fhe fuck did you expect her to do. Toph barely lent a hand and sent off Korra to fix her own family issues and Zuko wqs almost immediately taken out on hks.single fight.They're old as fuck and don't have it in them anymore. And before you bring up Iroh and the white lotus they were not that old outside of Bumi who is the exception not the rule. Iroh is in his fifties at the oldest, he's not that much older than Ozai who looks like he is in forties at best. Pakku looks like the second oldest member and he has less wrinkles than Iroh. Dude is probably pushing 60 at the most.
>>152786768>>152789564>aang>the last airbender for 100+ years>introduce a new airbender who looks older than himGuess the faggot was in hiding during the events of atla lmao
>>152786964Katarra's Bvll
>>152791894The main villian >>152792156Best theory I've read is that he's another time displaced air bender, probably frozen in time like Aang but for much longer.They're probably gonna play up their similarities in origin so their differences will really stand out. I wouldn't be surprised if her was a playful guy like Aang at first. Like Aang is extremely happy he found another air bender who's similar to him but then whoops turns out he's evil hates puppies and candy and voted for Donald trump.
>>152791652and LoK says she was part of the gaang with the big wall artone thing I hope the live action does is makes her stick around after serpents pass
>>152792606LoK said a lot shit that was wrong. Move on.
>>152792113i still think the toph that korra met should've been a swamp ghost
>>152789564>Zuko's mom/half-sisterRead that like they were the same person and banjos started playing in my head.
Airbender insignia evolution
>>152792884Fuck this dumb bullshit
>>152789201Young, adult and old Toph foursome...
>>152792918Why are you mad anon?
DLC for the fighting game?

>make sokka transalright
>>152786768AND NOTHING FOR MARY SUKI
>>152793587
>>152793587they look even more similar now, it's so funny lol
Is Azula in this? If not I do not give a fuck about this and not only will I be spamming hate threads I will also be samefagging myself to keep my hate threads on page 1 and demoralize the board
>>152793684>Is Azula in this?Don't know yet but probably not. I can see them doing some kind of stinger with her as sequel bait though.
>>152790391>anime studio using 3D models (even if it’s just for the backgrounds)Yeah no, it’s gonna look like shit
>>152789268Airbenders are supposed to be very tall.
>>152794008>according to my headcannon you do know we saw what these monks looked like in the show right? no way those lanky vegans were tall like that, especially compared to earthbenders and yolked up firebenders
>>152794060They said in the Kyoshi books that Kyoshi was tall because of her mom (who was an airbender)
>>152786768everything past the original has been complete garbage but I'm sure this will be amazing
>>152794079>novel shit Of course>>152794095This btw
>>152794079>the kyoshi bookskek.even considering the retcon novels, Kyoshi is half earthbender and we know no airbender her height but plenty or earthbenders of comparible height
>>152786768I wish they looked like this
>>152794533that's in their 30s/40s. This is early 20s
>>152786768Edgelords won bigly, Bautista is going to be every dark aang fanfic times a thousand >ancient power that could save his culture from extinction… find it before it falls into the wrong hands and threatens to upend the peace they sacrificed everything to achieveTotal Ashmaker Death
>>152794533Why are their eyes so small.Sokka and zuko looking goddam rats
>>152794533>Toph loses her gainsnooooo
>>152794533It's funny how they never include Suki in these things.
>>152794773Too much paper work and doughnuts
>>152794768The style used for Korra was slightly more realistic compared to ATLA's.
>>152794779Whatever you like it or not, Suki was always a side-character compared to the rest
>>152794828bryke kinda fucked up by including her in the opening for lok and then just never brought her up again lol
>>152794828team avatar. They wrote and drew what they wrote and drew. They can retcon it or whatever but it happened
>>152794839Thought that was Kyoshi
>>152786768>>152787040>Toph has more boobs that Kataralmao, still the best in my heart after 20 years
>>152794898feet
>>152794858they probably thought it'd be awkward to leave suki out of this part
>>152786768I think Airbenders are like Uchiha, and each one unlocks a different subskill when they abandon their earthly attachments. Zaheer followed Laghima’s teachings so he got flight, but this guy will follow a completely different philosophy and have something new.
>>152786768Is that a fucking helicopter on the left?
>>152792884it would be nice if the different temples had different designs
>>152794779>>152794858INCREDIBLY COMMON “LITERALLY WHO”KI LHAHA!
>>152792884I love Airbenders so much, the best nation so far.
>>152795164>dies
>>152795187They tanked that
>>152795187am I really supposed to believe that in a single day the Fire Nation was able to fully kill an entire people of NOMADS who have sky bison and whose population centers were on mountain tops at 4 different corners of the world?Seriously, even with the comet how the fuck did they pull that off?
>>152795234the new guy does seem like a survivor, or a descendant of them, so I guess not. It just took 20 years to confirm it
>>152791652This/threadSuki fags are worse than Zuko fags
>>152794079Airbender being tall is absolutely retarded. You want less mass, not more, if you’re flying through the air all the time. Plus they live without protein and dairy. Ain’t no way they’re growing tall. Airbenders, including Aaang, should all be 5ft5 on average. Waterbenders should’ve big since they need to hunt for their good and are basically barbarians. Earth benders range from small to tall given their giant population and diversity in land and lifestyles. Firebenders should just be the perfect height. Not too tall, not to small, since their land provides the perfect soil to grow the best quality foods.
If Avatar was not a kid's show. Who would have been raped by now?
>>152795391Pirates and Zuko rape Katara in Book 1. Wrestlers rape Toph before series even starts. Azula rapes Suki and gets inmates to run a train on her in prison. She also rapes Zuko. And Toph rapes Aang and Sokka.
Who is the worst character and why is it Suki?
>>152795413She has the personality of an egg
>>152795413I think Ty Lee not giving a shit about the war when the show went to great lengths to show how indoctrinated fire nation people were is worse than anything Suki does. Just me?
>>152794533I don't and see why they didn't since people kept complaining about it, only the outfits are a plus here.
>>152795108They’re nomads, all airbenders move between the same temples
>>152795391Aang
>>152795649They really didn’t go to any lengths to show the people were indoctrinated. They sort of tried and then they undermined all of that by just having the entire population go along with zuko pissing all over their 100 year empire
>>152795413ozai by a wide margin
>>152786774Oh fuck yeah he's hot
>>152786768>Who wants to watch Avatar get ruined a second time?!LoK did enough damage I can't handle another plane
>>152795935It’s already well past fucking over for the avatar franchise
>>152788009>yuen instead of BascoI am going to throat punch Steven. This guy is just grabbing every dark haired wasian 2d character in the last decade. And he's just using his normal voice.
>>152795234it wasn't a single day
>>152795893the terrible comics and korra showed that conflict with the colonies eventually led to the United republic forming, at least. And Fire Nation superiority eventually turned into into bending superiority
>>152788611>as foretold
Still the best version of Toph that can never be topped
>>152795893There are comics that go into it a little bit. Azula's whole shtick right now is actually about grooming Zuko to be ruthless enough to stick to his convictions because he was facing dissent back in the Fire Nation.
>>152796114
>>152791598We are in the Worst fucking timeline
>>152791598>>152796149>Katara watching Aang take off his shirt, glancing at his ab and thinking something like "Wow, Aang is so grown-up now...!"they're already having sex at this point lol, bumi's gonna be born soonish
>>152796114>>152796140Uoh
>>152788292>Despite actively being villainized, Mai ends up being the only character who comes out of this atrocious fancomic looking good and is even remotely sympathetic
>>152795234They didn't kill them ALL in a single day. But they were able to get a majority of them in that first day, and those that were not at the temples were later hunted down. The Fire Nation used relics looted from the temples to lure Air Nomads to their dooms. They'd decorate caves up in the mountains or small little huts with air nomad relics and spread rumors of surviving air nomads in the Earth Kingdom, eventually luring the remaining survivors out and killing them. There's a comic about this called Relics, originally released for Free Comic Book Day 2011 where Zhao employs the same tactic to try and capture Aang
>>152795391Zuko by his dad
Fire Nation raping Smellerbee
>>152786774Jin Kazama/Sasuke Uchiha/Byakuya Kukichi level twunk.
>>152786768Is this a reboot?
>>152787373>Toph is the best characterReally? Being effortlessly powerful and one note doesnt scream best character, tells me she's just a overrated plot device for people who enjoy cheap brain less cool stuff, at least Sokka has flaws and grows with depth. Toph has none.
>>152796901no it's a move set 10 years after the show ended
>>152796965Literally all the main characters except Sokka and Zuko are effortlessly powerful.
Will there be forklifts in this?
>>152796965Toph is the Kramer of ATLA. She's not the deepest character, but she may be the most entertaining.
>>152796965she's fun nigga
>>152796763So they were all just dumb as a 12 year old boy then.
Sex with Toph’s voice actress
>>152797142Ehh not exactly, there's plenty of reasonable explanations for how they could have been tricked. They were a highly social culture despite being nomadic, imagine you hear that one of your friends survived the purge and is hiding in a hut up in the mountains. You'd probably go investigate and get killed
Do zoomers embrace Korra like the Star Wars prequels or is there intergenerational solidarity on LoK ruining the setting?
>>152797227Zoomers never watched Korra. There’s a reason the latter half of the third season and the fourth season were only available online.
>>152797227>Fuck up so bad with the tech creep you have to nuke it into Mad Max for the third series
>>152797276Season 3 leaked several episodes early, had almost no advertising, and then was hastily rushed to air. It had no chance of having higher viewership based on that.Season 4 started out all online but they eventually started airing it on TV tooPart of the issue is that Korra was basically the "odd one out" of Nickelodeon's programming at the time even more so than ATLA was when it came out. The other thing is just that Korra was a streaming beasthttps://web.archive.org/web/20140727201129/http://io9.com/creators-of-the-legend-of-korra-explain-the-shows-not-c-1611119124/+nathangrayson>So obviously there's been a big shakeup. We wanted to address that quickly but we don't want to take too much time because we're here to have fun and we have stuff you guys haven't seen yet. But pulling it off the channel and moving it to digital exclusively is part of the huge sea change in the whole industry. I'm sure you've seen articles about cable numbers and streaming and companies doing their own content and all sorts of stuff. So obviously we're in the middle of a huge change. And things have changed just for us since we did in Avatar in 2005-2008 and then when we came back in 2012. And when Book 1 of Korra came out it did pretty good on TV but its online presence was just insane. Not only the chatter from all the fans but the actual numbers in terms of digital downloads and streaming, it's just been huge. And as the show's gone along, by Book 2, the numbers in the digital streaming greatly outweighed the channel . >It's no secret that Avatar, especially Korra, is not typical Nickelodeon fare. And so they've had kind of a hard time fitting it into their programming. But basically the Book 2 finale, the numbers were insane when they streamed it, when it went on Nick.com. It was the biggest event they had that year. And that show, digital downloads for that season was amazing. And, as you've seen, not so much on the channel. So it's just part of this shift over.
>>152797370I don’t know man. Sound like cope. If it was that big they wouldn’t have slept on the franchise for a decade.
>>152795164Get off 4chan, Mike and Bryan
>>152797408>If it was that big they wouldn’t have slept on the franchise for a decade.They haven't been sleeping on it. There's been the past Avatar novels, the comics, MTG shit, probably a lot of other collabs I'm forgetting. Then there's the Netflix and the opening of the new studios. But even back when LOK was airing the general consensus was that Nick didn't know what to do with the franchise because it doesn't fit their brand.
>>152786768Sokka and Zuko were grown men already but yeahanyway what the hell am I looking at? Who's the OC?>>152786866Well he's Asian.. he probably can't grow a really good one til he gets old, as we saw him wearing in Korra.
>>152796095>>152796119Comics aren’t canon
>>152787243It's so fucking... if 'hot' didn't already mean sexy, it would mean this feeling. Not regular anger, but instantly like 'touched the stove' anger. This writer needs to be slapped in the face, for her own good.this also reminds me, any future animated stuff is gonna have everyone recast because caint have whites, thas offensive.
>>152797452You're not canon
>>152797452Bryke like money so they say they are :^)
>>152787436you just know some exec was like WE NEED MORE VISUAL VARIETY nevermind there's a brother and sister here who are part of the same tribe and would look and dress in similar colors.
>>152796149>>152796180"Wow, Aang. You're so mature now... An adult, really! So adult they could make a movie about it."
>>152797520Aang can say damn now.
>>152796180I hope they adapt Aang's disappointment at Katara's firstborn not being an airbender. Then have him go back to breeding her so she can pop out more to roll the air piglet gacha.
>>152797227>>152797276Zoomers were the primary audience for Korra. We grew up with ATLA and then watched Korra as teenagers.>>152797346>tech creepNatural progression you mean? The Fire Nation was well into 100 years of industrialization. Korra is set over 70 years after the Fire Nation has been helping the world rebuild and spreading their technological advancements with them. And the Colonies became a melting pot of people from all walks of live and naturally bred innovation.>>152797408They never "slept on it for a decade"? Korra ended in 2014, but it's not like they just stopped releasing things. Art books, comics, and other tie in novels/books/guidebooks were releasing pretty steadily. What really led to the franchise skyrocketing in popularity was when both ATLA and Korra released on Netflix in 2020, since then we've gotten more novels, comics, the various crossovers with video games and stuff like MTG, and the tabletop game as well. 2021, merely a year after the Netflix surge in popularity, Nickelodeon announced the creation of Avatar Studios which now managed the franchise.>>152797439>But even back when LOK was airing the general consensus was that Nick didn't know what to do with the franchise because it doesn't fit their brand.Exactly. They greenlit the first season as a planned miniseries. But then it did insanely well when it premiered, I think like 3-4+ million viewers per episode. Bryke pitched Nick an ATLA movie at the time based on what would eventually become some of the Gurihiru comics, but Nick weren't interested and instead gave them another season for Korra. So they had to dust off some old ideas and cobble together another season of a show that was initially self-contained and rush it out in Nick's time frame, and a bunch of production issues like another studio botching the first half of the season's animation and MIR had to take over because they feared Pierrot's slop would hurt their own reputation.
>>152797614I know the real lesson is that the writers didn’t want to separate them but at any point did Aang think that katara wasn’t popping out airbenders because they were living together and not a continent away in gender-segregated monasteries?
>>152797673That would be a good adult joke to sneak in and I do wonder if they're ever going to explore how Katara and Aang both felt.
>>152794079Kyoshi and her mom are freaks of nature though
>>152794779what if she fucking died
the legend of unc
>>152797189Michaela is stupid hot
>>152797370The irony here is that it now a days it's ATLA that's the streaming juggernaut and nick can't even give LoK away. Seriously, ATLA is lme of netflix most streamed animated shows while LoK was so ignored that netflix didn't bother to renew it's streaming contract and let it get removed from it's platform.Korra only got such high numbers at first because it was riding off the goodwill of ATLA and there was always hope it would get better. Once the show finished and people had time to process the fact it was kind of shit it's popularity plummeted But once ATLA hit netflix back in 2020 and a new generation of fans discovered it and older fans could rewatch it people re-evaluated it and realized it was always the better show.
>>152798197It's not really ironic when back in the day Nick wasn't especially kind to LOK either after awhile.
>>152797108>>152797121I rest my case, ig I wanted to watch a cartoon for junkfood invincible character slop, Id watch anime especially dragonball. Avatar is supposed to be real and character balanced
>>152786964Toph
>>152797213>You'd probably go investigatesure>and get killed Nah man not me, I'd be parkour flipping people into vacuum choleholds.
the fire nation being able to take out all of those flying targets and bison literally never made sense
We need to prepare for the movie by getting into Zuki, like REALLY getting into it. That way it can’t be used to hurt us.
>>152798419All while launching attacks on everyone else at the same time no less.
>>152798419I’m not sure what changed Bryke’s mind, because the pitch bible ending was aang leaving to go find the survivors, but during the actual production of the show they shot down every idea for a surviving Airbender
>>152798419It didn't make sense for a massive army to sneak up 4 separate mountains at the same time without being spotted miles away and then for none to evacuate and seek refuge and blend in elsewhere
>>152798197Korra was doing great on Netflix. ATLA was obviously leagues above, but it is the flagship of the property so that lines up. But Korra also received a big boost in 2020 alongside ATLA, it wasn't just one or the other.Korra didn't stay on Netflix because Paramount is consolidating their flagship brands for exclusivity on their own streaming service.https://www.reuters.com/legal/transactional/ellison-outlines-vision-new-paramount-with-focus-content-technology-2025-08-07/>Ellison said the company would prioritize growing its streaming business, increasing investment in high-quality exclusive content, which he called the "single biggest driver of subscriber growth."The only other reason ATLA got its license on Netflix renewd besides being the flagship property is that Netflix has the live action show and they want to keep using that as a gateway for as long as possible.
>>152798482Where can I read the pitch/story bible and episode scripts and shit?
>>152798419>>152798470Did you retards forget there was a COMET on that day that specifically enhances the abilities of all firebenders, allowing them to shoot firestorms from their fingertips? We see even your average joe firebenders were able to shoot torrents of flames.
I hate how hard they’re pushing jeets in the series now. Bautista’s character looks jeetish which makes no sense considering they recast all of the gang so that the voice actors resemble their characters, and last time I checked Bautista is filo not jeet. Also to do it during peak jeet hate. What the fuck are they thinking? I wish guru ligmashitma was just a dark skinned chink or something. I swear you can’t even escape jeets in fictional media it’s that bad. Feels like they didn’t exist in the OG series minus the guru, then in season 4 of Korra onward they just started springing up out of the nowhere.
Aang better be a fucking goofball I swear to god.
>>152792884The last dude looks like a Voltron side character. Everything about that new show seems terrible.
>>152798599all the fire in the world wouldn't let them catch up to the heights the sky bison reach. It's a plothole and relies on literally every airbender being dumb as hell in every location
>>152798685It was an ambush, most of the sky bison wouldn't have had much time to react before getting hit
>>152787119>Black airbender pre LoKHow?
>>152798705>nobody saw a gigantic army climbing up the mountains>they also didn't run when they saw their intentionsthey didn't even have their heightened level of metalworks back then nor the balloons. This is straight up something they thought was cool/necessary for the story but didn't really think it out
>>152798647I think the airbenders survived by moving to India, the timing is bad but the series set it up with pathik, so I don’t think it’s an awful idea
>>152798733He may be an ancient Airbender or a mutt.
>>152798599>>152798685The real question is how the fuck did 5 people in the white lotus take ba sing se back aloneIroh, Bumi etc are strong but I don't buy they were strong enough to take an army of firebenders all powered up from the comet
People are still coping that Korra will get a prequel-trilogy-style redemption arc? Maybe only if that new show ends up being even worse.
>>152798733>In the years since the defeat of Fire Lord Ozai, Aang, the world's last Airbender, learns of an ancient power that could save his culture from extinction. With the help of his friends, he embarks on a global quest to find it before it falls into the wrong hands and threatens to upend the peace they sacrificed everything to achieve.Seems like they weren’t all wiped out. Maybe some assimilated like those theories about Ty Lee, but with a Pajeet instead
>>152798780>an ancient power that could save his culture from extinctionWhat's the point of this when we all know this is going nowhere.
>>152798780>The key to save the world lies in India Welp the world is doomed then I guess.
>>152798734>nobody saw a gigantic army climbing up the mountainsThe Temples exist at the cloud level, could have been a particularly foggy/cloudy day. There are footpaths that lead up to the temples, one of the Kyoshi novels establish this as a way for pilgrims to reach the temples other than by bison>they also didn't run when they saw their intentionsSome did run, others stayed to try and defend their temples. The Eastern Temple was decimated, Western was relatively untouched, Southern and Northern seem to have had some damage but not a ton relatively speaking.
>>152798805Maybe they invited the fire soldiers in before they were attacked? They didn't know they were going to get attacked I presume.
>>152798805The Eastern Temple pre genocide, for reference
>>152798822Yeah. I think it's possible the Fire Nation could have even visited under the guise of putting on some kind of show with the armor being ceremonial, then once they were in they unleashed their comet enhanced firebending to wipe out those at the temples.
>>152798799aang destroys it so bautista can’t use it, and we get decades worth of memes about him being a retard
>>152789564>>Plot revolves around an ancient airbending staff that was created by a previous Avatar named SonamBros?
>>152798933did Sonam eat his sky bison?
>>152798945He WAS the Sky Bison
>>152798933Bryke already confirmed months ago that they will "retcon" the past avatars. They didn't elaborate but they probably meant "We will asspull a brand-new past avatar in the next movie instead of using one of the established avatars that were in the background in the two shows, so don't expect Sonam to be the cool fat Airbender avatar that showed up in Korra"It's funny because it implies that they aren't capable of giving depth to established designs.
>>152799059No, they said they would continue to explore past Avatars in the upcoming movies and shows, which I thought to mean that Seven Havens is probably going to be about restoring the Avatar State.
>>152786768So, this is the period where they are screwing their children up?
>>152798805They didn't just spawn at the bottom of the mountain , a big caravan of fire military would be observed by flying people constantly traveling
>>152799086no, none of them have fucked yet
>>152799078Yeah, but they also said they will retcon some of them.
>>152798647Some funny unrelated to avatar lore is that both Disney and dreamworks had jeet movies in the works about two years ago at the same time and they both cancelled them around the same time which was the reason behind those massive layoffsEven those studios aren’t retarded enough to go through with jeetmaxxing meanwhile Bryke are doubling down, just shows how fucking dead this entire franchise is
>>152799160>just shows how fucking dead this entire franchise isNo, it just shows bryke need to go. Netflix is raking in the big bucks since those two jews walked
>>152799168And that show was complete fucking dogshit just like literally every other piece of avatar media since the season 3 finale
>>152799160trust Bryke, there’ll be a kino fight scene of aang beating the jeet into the ground
>>152799175still nowhere near as bad as it could have been had bryke stayed, and did so well for netflix that they greenlit the rest immediately.
>>152799187>trust Brykekek, after the giant kaiju kite fight and the literal mech? heavens no kek
>>152799190Bryke wanted LA to be more like original pitch where Iroh was evil and Toph and Azula were boys. It would be shit sure but it wouldn't feel redundant at least.
>>152799208understatement of the year.... do you know how shit of an idea that is for fucking netflix to tell you "nah lets just stick to the orginal plot"? being redundant isn't worse than being awful. at least some changes in natla like zuko's crew being the battalion he stood up for dont nuke the whole plot.
>>152799107Again: clouds obscuring the Fire Nation on the ground.Plus, the Fire Nation at the time still had dragons. Sozin had started the dragon hunts at the time but those were still small scale, we do know at least Sozin and Roku had dragons within the short time before the genocide, and Aang encountered a Dragon and, along with his friend Kuzon, saved its egg from would-be poachers.Dragons could have been used to at least transport a handful of soldiers to the temples quick and establish air superiority while the other soldiers marched up the footpaths to the mountains.
>>152799132>10 years since series startedAang and Katara have done every position + waterbending = birth control
>>152786768James Cameron Avatar betta
>dude, the airbenders secretly survived and are camping out in India and laying low>aang: hmmmm…to protect my people I shall keep their secret from the entire worldIf this is what ends in happening I’m gonna be fucking livid because poor tenzin spent his entire life stressed out , pumping kids into pema and maintaining airbender traditions all on his own, to one day restore the air nation, and all of sudden it turns out he didn’t need to and Aang was not only too much of a faggot to restore the air nation himself but he couldn’t even tell his son that he didn’t need to? That is unless they pull the mother of all retcons and pretend Tenzin secretly knew too and was just pretending not to in Korra to protect the airbenders.
>>152798482There is an alternate timeline out there where instead of abandoning the series after book 3 in favor of the jeet movie, they worked on book 4: air like originally planned
>>152789564>aztec/hindu aestheticWhat would that even look like?
>>152787040reminder this toph heavy is canon, she is a big ass slut
ATLA with GoT brutality.Aang gets seduces by Meng who is an Earth Kingdom prostitute and knocks her up.Zuko learning the from Iroh that his HOnor is something he gains himself, stage a coup against Ozai, putting his head on a Pike.Azula escapes from coup to ally with the Gaang. Sokka rape Azula while she is restrained as a hostage.Toph rapes older men and younger boys with he Earthbending
>>152799611Katara marries Pakku so he can teach her waterbending. Katara weeps as her virignity is taken while Pakku yells her grandmother's name
>>152799548Probably something similar to the Sun Warriors from ATLA. They were a blend of Mayan and South East Asian cultures
>>152788289Korrasami should have been an enemies to lovers thing from the start.
>>152799424The main villain probably survived by camping out in the Spirit Realm, kind of like how Zhao looks exactly the same 70 years later.I can totally see the twist of this movie being that Aang assumes the guy is an Air Nomad because he has tatoos but then it gets revealed he's actually an Air Crusader, from an era where it was the Airbenders who had supremacist/colonialist ambitions.
>>152799208Is this true or is the source just "trust me guys"?
>>152799915It was from Knight Edge Media, the same news site that leaked and broke Seven Havens months before it was officially announced
>>152799918I'm still a little dubious because Bryke knows one reason why Avatar is so praised is its variety of female characters. Turning Azula and Toph back into guys feels weird even for them.
>>152799949 (me btw)I wonder if by the time they agreed to do the Netflix show they were kind of over the idea of live-action Avatar and decided to treat it more as an experiment. I could see "evil" Iroh needing to go through his own arc and learning how to be the father-figure Zuko working, but it'd also have huge ramifications for Zuko's arc that would probably require huge parts of the show to be rewritten. Unless Iroh keeps it a secret until like Book 3 and Ozai blabs to Zuko. Changing characters' genders, even as a "just for fun" thing though would really damage their reputation with fans.Kind of funny that Netflix still fucked it up in their own way. Nobody talks about the show.
>>152799424>tenzin spent his entire life stressed out , pumping kids into pemaOh no, what a nightmare
>>152799978>Kind of funny that Netflix still fucked it up in their own way. Nobody talks about the show.It was just really stilted, and the episodic structure of the show was probably difficult to turn into a 8 hour series (so we got like frankenstein mashups of different ep stories). What One Piece Live-Action got right was bringing in the fun energy and pacing of the manga, even if it did condense and tone down a number of stuff as well.
>>152799978>Nobody talks about the show.Katara's actress has no talent, something about her feels really stiff and cold, especially compared to how bold and energetic both Zuko and Aang's actors are.
>>152797658>Natural progressionFrom temples and tribes to 20s new york? Fuck that.
>>152800028Republic City is a completely new setting but we see that previous nations like the Water Tribe or Earth Kingdom remain sort of the same albeit slightly more urbanized.
>>152800028>From temples and tribes to 20s new york?You see in LOK that the rest of the world doesn't look like Republic City which was basically a collaborative effort on all 3 nations' part. Even today the idea of visiting a super modern city, hopping on a plane to go one country over and ending up in a place with considerably less technologically advanced isn't unrealistic.
>>152800028*hong kong
>>152800028fire nation had metal ships, zeppelins, a giant drill, when do you think those things were invented exactly?>>152799208i'd believe it. bryke were hard carried by the writers room
>>152800417Republic City should have been more like Hong Kong in the first place, but Bryke are white dudes so they just copy and pasted New York (down to the citizens having Boston accents) when they had to conceive an asian themed steampunk metropolis.
>>152798933Sonam is a girl according to the leaks
>>152799059That's not a retcon. They already established that the avatar line is hundreds of generations old in ATLA and we've never seen the full line up. Going to a much older avatar isn't a retcon because nothings changed, the fat avatar is still there they just don't need him.
>>152800530There's a female air nomad named Sonam in the Yangchen novels but that obviously isn't the same character as the Avatar who shares the name
>>152789920It might just be a master craftsman tool meant to be used in advanced airbending techniques and additional esoteric uses. From a very cliche point of view, I would expect like>oooo this staff is the key to restoring the air benders>we shall fight over it now>whoa it's specially crafting so that blasting air through it lets you do advanced technique>these techniques are only good for FIGHTING and VIOLENCE and whoa it's BLOOD cuz it's no longer show for kids!>haha avatar actually it's more than just that as well>by inserting it into this notch and blowing the right sequence, I can open this esoteric wind lock to the inner sanctum>with this, I can finally get inside, restore the air benders with the special thing inside>you shall see now that peace is DUMB and previous air avatars knew we needed to FIGHT>my family knew this and that's why we're not extinct like YOUR temple>BEHOLD!>...>what's this, the secret special thing was just works that say "Actually peace is cool">damn Avatar, I see error of my ways, I kneel>I will see if I can find other airbenders and go out on my journey (evidently, this will never come to fruition)>credits roll
>>152786897I thought they had peace up until Amon tho
>>152800600I imagine a lot of people in universe are named after past avatars. Especially the popular ones.
>>152800703There was no large scale conflict like the hundred years war that killed a lot of people. That doesn't mean there weren't smaller, Korra level incidents. The comics are proof enough that there were still people stirring shit up after Ozai Also LoK was frustratingly vague about what happened to the gaang and the world at large between the ATLA finale and the premiere of LoK. Part of that was that they wanted to focus solely on Korra and her world and did their best to ignore ATLA and it's characters so it wouldn't overshadow LoK. That turned out to be a blessing in disguise because now they have like spme 30-40 odd years of Aaang's life to explore and fill in with whatever they want.
>>152800858>Also LoK was frustratingly vague about what happened to the gaang and the world at large between the ATLA finale and the premiere of LoKWhat was there to know? They mostly managed Republic City until near the timeframe of Korra when they either passed away or retired. The only known significant events inbetween relevant to the series was when the bloodbending godfather nearly killed the entire city council and police force with just his fingers had Aang not intervened, and a terrorist cell attempted to kidnap Korra but was prevented by her father, Zuko, Sokka, and Tenzin.
>>152800934Yes. That is frustratingly vague. Thank you illustrating my point
>>152800958Not sure what's frustrating about it
>>152786768>>152786964Are they legitimizing that fan canon about sand benders being secret air benders?
>>152800998No this is an actual airbender
>>152786768I'm gonna go draw toph, I've been inspired!
I wonder if we'll see Koh. He was always a bit of a dangling plot thread. If they end up killing him, that's also a way to retroactively make Korra look like less of a terrible person.
>>152786768Who's the other Airbender?
>>152801057Dave Bautista
>>152800985People want to know more about characters they like and less about characters they don't. How is this hard for you to grasp.
>>152801115That's fair
>>152799548Supposedly it's based on Machu Picchu
>>152786774Oh yeah. He's made for (Me).
>>152799560Reminder she had boulders full of milk
>>152801156>>152799548>>152789564>Maachu Picchu>AztecThis is like calling the Romans an Indian civilizationAnyways, not Aztec, but the Maya are at least also Mesoamerican and Maya and Khmer architecture can look quite similar.>>152799671Which has potential as an idea as I explain above, shame they did a bad job
can't wait for E;R to make a shitty content farm series milking this movie and then go back to making cringe streams
>>152800998That would be cool but they would definitely botch it.
>>152799190It was awful. It really couldn’t have been much worse. And it doesn’t matter how much money it made. Star Wars makes a lot of money and it’s still a dead as fuck franchise
>>152801870>it couldn’t have been worseWe now that it could have had bryke got their way. The fact that you wont even attempt to defend evil iroh says it all. natla was bad but id take it over the slop bryke have been doing for years
I fucking knew it!It isn’t that Korra is a bad show. The Avatar fandom is dogshit!
>>152802191Until the premiere we'll see it...
>>152802191>>152791341
>>152786972Stop crying Korra chode
