              Pro-bending was incredibly bad considering the potential of the concept. Earthbending was reduced to throwing frisbees.

          But it had that terrible romance subplot and probending was somehow an even worse version of Quidditch, which was already the worst part of that series.
          And Korra never even learns the lessons which she is obviously supposed to learn. She just gets past her problems without changing

      It will probably be better than Korra.
      Korra was subpar, but most of that was due to production issues, not incompetence.
      Some of it was incompetence, but not all of it anyways.

      Korra was really rushed since, contrary to popular belief, it was greenlit for four books (two seasons) from the get-go, so basically the whole show was produced around the same time, which meant quality control was often less important than getting the product finished and in an acceptable state.
      It also had a huge lack of writers compared to the original series, which held it back.

      This movie is unlikely to have either of those issues and so should be at some medium of quality inbetween the OG show and Korra

          It's true dude.
          Things are almost never bad just because the people making them were idiots.
          Making a tv show is hard, you need the right time, the right ideas, the right resources, and the right people. And if you don't have one or some of those, the show will probably not turn out good.

    Hate how they're keeping Sokka using a sword instead of his war club. He's not gonna cut anyone with it so you might as well have him bonk fools with a club. The war club also has cultural significance to him. Besides Zuko already has the sword thing covered.

        Not all fire nation soldiers were bad. The captain (I think) didn't hesitated to talk back to zuko in order to protect his men from the storm.

        He has a story reason to use a sword, but if the movie is still going to be family friendly, or if it doesn;t want Sokka to on screen murder people, then the sword is a big drawback.
        A club can be used more often since it doesn't obviously maime in the way a sword would

    I disagree with this take. Korra sucked but I also don't want ATLA to end up like Star Wars where the only stories ever told is about how epic and based the Skywalker family is and every major plot point somehow has people end up in Tatooine despite the whole point being that it's a dull backwoods planet in bumfrick nowhere.

      Well with Star Wars the universe of the setting was actually never interesting with little world building or really anything unique which separated it from other sci-fi settings other than the force.

      Avatar, while still not having the most compelling world building (having only four nations and having them be color coded and coded by element isn't exactly the most creative thing ever) but it's a lot more compelling and interesting than Star Wars.

      They might do that, but it would be a bit out of place since the original show indicated that she had a crush on Sokka and Korra had her become a mother.
      Granted we don't know if she ever married a man, so they could make her gay and have that be the explanation why she never married in TLoK.
      And then I suppose she would have just artificially inseminated herself to have children.

        She also had a crush on Zuko. Toph being a lesbian make no sense, which is exactly why they will do it.

              They can't literally bend blood or at least it's never shown, what they actually do is move water inside the body

              I would guess that the sperm cells would just be left behind if someone tried to bend semen, but then again I think they've shown people bending muddy water so that would include some earth particles

    Call me when they get Aaron Ehasz back as head writer. Bryan and Mike are so far up their own ass, they might have come up with the idea but they can execute it for shit. Korra was a smorgasbord of writing frickups with barely any overarching plot. Some of that was the nightmare that was Nick not telling them how many episodes they had but even after they it was fumbled like crazy. Ehasz kept the through line of the plot in all 3 seasons and was responsible for writing most of the best episodes. Byke can suck a dick.

    Because the Shyamalan movie from 2010 was a huge flop (even people who didn't watch cartoons made fun of it) and I think Nick was worried that the public was going to be sick of the "bald kid with the arrow tattoo" character so so they put Aang on the back burner and let Bryke experiment with a different project in the same universe to keep the brand alive.

    >Why did they decide to do that moronic generational time skip series with a completely different cast in the first place anyways?

    You know, despite what you see on this website Korra is actually quite a popular show and it has a very dedicated fandom.

      Yeah that's very true. People here have demanding standards that include a solid plot but the fact is Korra despite it's writing still has incredible animation that is Disney-level, which is to say the best, that makes it appealing to anybody who cares about that thing from 12 to 70 years old. I've met seniors who love Korra because they love Disney and Korra is basically the only fix for that sort of quality outside a few Japanese or French productions.
