i am the last air bender!

LOL. I shaved my head today, thought about drawing an arrow for fun.

It would be cool if they did 2 or 3 episodes of Aang’s childhood before the war. He mentioned how he’s been to other nations and has friends in them (Kuzon & Bumi). Would be cool to see something like that.

Saw the final episode a few days ago and have to say it was pretty tight. I like how he combined all the bending techniques to fight.

I haven’t really watched the entire series, only an episode here and there but I know the big picture (I think). I was wondering how they bend other matter? Like how that girl bended steel and the water benders make ice.

I can see steel since it’s still a mineral and ice is just frozen water but how the flip do the fire benders use lightning?!

I never saw the episode that explained that.

Toph killed it in the last couple of episodes, from her appreciation of play in Ember Island players episode to the part early in the series finale where she was pretending to be the “Melon Lord” and of course metal bending in the airship.

With fire/lightening, I don’t know the exact explanation but I think it was some episode in Book 2 where Iroh explained it.

Oh. I get it. Never mind then.

Heres how it goes. Fire benders can use lighting cuz lighting is called “cold blooded fire”.Lightning generation is the ability to generate and direct lightning. Earth benders well not all only that earth bending master and toph can bend metal. Water benders like that old witch lady and katara can use blood bending and air benders well i dont think they have any.

Ha, figured it was some weird explanation especially since fire and electricity are completely different aside from the heat part I guess.

I thought only toph could metal bend since it seems rather pointless for the old man to fight the metal tanks when he could just control them.

Either way, doesn’t matter. GREAT EPISODE! Kinda makes me a little sad that I didn’t see the entire series.

They’re both pretty rare forms of energy, though. That’s the connection I think they have, though I missed the episode in Season 1 when it was introduced–I really have to watch the things I buy.

I still say Airbenders should have Sound-bending as a secondary.

Hah. I love your ad, man. That commercial never fails to crack me up.

I find it fucking funny that all the fangirls that wanted Zuko and Katara to hook up actually HATED Sozin’s Comet because their precious little Zutara ship didn’t happen. The tears are so, so delicious!

Last episode was godly, rocket boost Ozai was tight, lots of amazing stuff.

For the fire/lightning shit, I always assumed that bending was actually bending of the states of matter(except earth I guess):
Fire-Plasma, hence lightning as well
Air-Gas, yeah, they didn’t do anything else but I’d assume the could make vacuums n shit if they really developed their powers lethally, but they’re monks so that’s not happening
Water-Liquid, hence blood bending

But then there’s the whole water can bend ice too so I dunno.

i just assumed they pulled a pokemon and changed the rules of bending like how pokemon pulled shit out of their ass wit pokemon who were water types doing shit like fire or w/e it was they changed.

Speaking of all of the bending styles, do any of you remember the episode when Zuko and Aang had to seek out the last two dragons in order to help their firebending? I’m just wondering about all of the original animals that taught humans how to bend the elements. Toph already explained that she learned through the badgermoles and Aang said that airbending originated from the sky bisons. So where does this leave waterbending? What animal taught them to bend?

From what I recall, Princess Yue or Katara mentions in the North Pole their ancestors learned by watching how the moon pushed and pulled the tides.

Man, looking back, they missed a huge opportunity to have Zuko go more into his past in the Ember Island Players episode. They were in his old family vacation house with tons of pictures and artifacts from his family’s history and, according to him, a time when the family was actually stable and happy (ie. when his dad wasn’t treating him like shit. We see him on the beach with his arm around Zuko, but that’s about it). After Zuko made that comment, someone could’ve just asked him to elaborate and we might’ve got a good episode out of it instead of just filler.

On the other hand, there were a couple golden moments from the episode we did end up getting (Toph’s reaction to the guy doing the sonic wave is priceless), so I’m torn.

On an unrelated note, there probably will be an Avatar OST released at some point. The Track Team said things are looking pretty good at the moment.

awesomeness

Spoiler

Well, not really… It’s more of a final insult by Mike and Bryan to people who wanted Zuko and Katara to get together in the end.

THIS IS DELICIOUS!

Oh shit ~
:rofl:

“Excellent.”[/Mr. Burns]

Well, outside of that damned screamer right behind the cameraman. I couldn’t even hear what Azula (or anyone else half of the time) was saying.

Anyway, from that link, I found [media=youtube]YU5gF-Kkofc&watch_response[/media]

Anyone know off-hand how many shorts there are for Avatar? Or will I have to brave Nickolodeon’s website tomorrow?

That shit was hilarious.

That shit was hilarious, they were flip-flopping like a soap opera. :rofl:
