Stars a girl. Uninterested.
Donāt know why, considering Aang is in touch with his feminine side a lot more than most boysā¦
I can see skyscrapers.
EDIT: Oh yeah itās a hundred years to the future.
Hotness. Zuko better be in this and somehow un-aged. The āanti-bending religionā stuff is something I actually kinda-sorta envisioned in my fantasy āAvatar 2ā drafts (though my idea was for a few anti-bending villains, not a whole movement). 
I guess thereās no point finishing them and sending them to the creators nowā¦
No idea who Korra is but being female sheās genetically attracted to Dr. B. Donāt feel bad, though: being male qualifies too.
Ha! Like I thought, Aang lived for a while AND bending powers are paternal (maybe).
You wouldnāt be saying if Toph was the main characterā¦
I think youāre just saying that because sheās a water bender and the last female water bender, Katara, was probably the most divisive character in the series.
Itās 70 years but yeah.
Yeah, cool at times, then just downright whiny and preachy at othersā¦
Might watch it probably. But this character sounds kind of anime-y, and I donāt want to deal with that shit.
Actually, since she does kinda sound like Tophā¦
I guess Iāll give it a shot.
You might as well. What else are you going to do? Watch the Last Airbender again?
seeā¦ if there was anything about the avatar movie that i wasnāt really confident was part of the show was that whole drivel about avatars not being able to have a family. i never really picked up on it during the show, but the movie really wanted to drive that shit home. yeah, this 12 year old kid ran away because it meant he would never be able to sex up a girl, spread his seed, and become a fatherā¦ realistic, right?
iām excited. the soon avatar can get back to doing things the right way the better.
If sheās anything like Toph she will be fucking awesome. Not at awesome as Toph but still awesome.
She isnāt related to Katara, so we should be fine. But she is hanging out with Aangās son Tenzin (who sounds more like Zukoās son with that name), and short of a plot twist, that means heās also Kataraās sonā¦so we will probably get some preachā¦
EDIT: I just thought of something. As of now, it seems this uprising of Non-Benders will be the major focus point for villainy in this series. Which makes me wonder how much of a threat they really are? Weāve already seen what happened when the baddest man on the planet took on Aang, so I give this questionā¦
What the hell can a group of non-benders do to the Avatar when Ozai, the most powerful non-Avatar Firebender in known history, powered up by Sozinās Comet got beat down like a child by an Avatar that wasnāt even willing to kill him, especially since it does not seem Korra would have those same inhibitions?
Iām going to guess some mix of technology and the spirit world.
Dr. B innately has 255% MBlock.
I know, just randomly make an area enter the Spirit World. Hah, no bending for you!
I would definitely go for something techie wise. But hell even characters with absolutely no bending powers like Ty lee can be a threat once they get into range. Imagine Dai Lee [sp?] agents agility with Ty Lee pressure point attacks.
The problem isā¦Korraās the Avatar. Ty Leeās a threatā¦but when did you ever see Ty Lee own Aang? Hell, the only reason she got Azula was because she was busy trying to kill Mai (or is it May? I donāt remember the correct spelling at the moment). And if I want ultimate agility, Iāll take Sukiās. Boiling Rock sequence where she got the Warden was just insane.
A human with no powers can still be a threat. There are fictional, superpowered villains that would shit their pants if they thought The Punisher wanted them dead.
As much as I hate to admit, I did like that one facet of the movie: how the Avatar couldnāt have a family, and how that seriously scared Aang. Granted, how youād explain that is beyond me. Automagic sterilization? Koh eating some faces? /shrug
The Dr. B esper gives +100 to all stats on level up and teaches Mad Sexy (Ted Woolsey translation: Maseshy).
The new series taking place only 70 years into the future mean Aang died pretty young. Especially by Avatar world standards.
13 (Aang ageās at the end of the series) + 70 - 16 (what Iām guessing Korraās age is, since thatās when they tell you youāre the Avatar) = 67. Compare that to Sozin or Bumi or especially Avatar Kyoshi (230!?). Guess Aangās time in the iceberg wasnāt free.
As for how non-benders could take on benders, well there have obviously been some technological advancements that could even the playing field. Plus, not all benders are on Azulaās level. Piandao could take down weaker benders with just a sword.
But remember, Korra has also already learned Earth and Fire on top of Water. Since she isnāt rushed for time like Aang was, Iām sure she took her time learning them. Sheās probably at least in her 20āsā¦at least I would hope so, or she was also told young.
i almost want to agree with you. it feels as if it was added to give the new viewer some perspective to why aang would run, but i think it took away so much from aangās character.
aang originally ran away because he didnāt want to be the avatar. he wanted to still be a kid. play around and have fun. he shirked the responsibility because he felt it was too much of him and the end result is that he paid for it. because all the airbenders get wiped out, this is a turning point for him that he canāt always be a child and that he must grow up and shoulder the responsibility of being the avatar,
but because the movie externalized his decision into something like āi canāt have childrenā you donāt get this inner grief and torment the original aang had. in fact, his running away didnāt get explored much since his excuse was so convenient. āi canāt have a familyā āoh well, iām out.ā you donāt get a sense of him being a kid that wanted to have fun for the most part, and its hard to show his change of character because his sole motivation for running away in the movie was because he couldnāt have childrenā¦
its hard for there to be any returns as a writer on something like that cuz unless he sexes up katara at the end and has a kid and puts that to rest, the idea of him never having a family is so inconsequential to everything that is going on. itās like he gave up chocolate or gave up picking flowers on a hot summer day or somethingā¦ it doesnāt matter immediately and wonāt ever matter unless you make a point of doing so.
as i saidā¦ i think it was an okay idea because its something easy to relate to, especially if youāre a parent of a kid youāre taking to watch the movieā¦ it basically said āhe left because he couldnāt have kids, so instead he lost his entire raceā. it has its own kind of impact, but i think they lost so much more character development going in that direction. the reason had 0 consequences and 0 bearing on the story. it was convenient enough to externalize and gloss over once and accept it for what it was. even if i liked the idea, it was just another example of things being simplified to move a story without any real development.
Good thing you get a twix moment with twix.
Iām excited for the new series, itāll help get that M. Night Shyamalan shit out of my head.
