New Avatar series announced
(www.ign.com)
They will not name it Avatar: The Legend of »Name«?
Yes. So, people don't think it's blue alien people. Because normal people only know about blue alien guys.
How effective is the Avatar gonna be in a world with tech somewhere between the 1940s and 1960s?
Like I know the Avatar is a singularly powerful being. But tech advances. And part of that is weapons development. And that's bad news.
Everything changed when the Fire Nation dropped 2 Nuclear Weapons.
There is a lot to explore in society where a lot of the population has magic
Sadly I really hate the world building/magic system in Korra so i don't know about this
In one hand yeah it’s really exciting meeting another avatar but on the other hand… I’m not sure about the whole franchisation of Avatar, especially this massive announcement game. There are three movies in the making, two more seasons of Netflix Avatar and now another animated show.
I am certainly reading too much into this: twins are said to have a special connection and, post-Korra, Avatars have lost a massive connection because of the broken Avatar cycle. Maybe the new Avatar will be able to restore the old connections in some way as part of the cataclysm story line.
That’s a genius idea, and I love it
I wish I could unread it and forget about it because it makes too much sense
Konietzko and DiMartino are co-creating the new series together with...
And I'm sold, can't wait to see what they come up with!
Aaron Ehazs was the secret sauce in the original series imo.
How so?
Original series was a masterpiece. Aaron worked as head writer alongside the original creators.
Korra wasn’t as good. There wasn’t Aaron.
Aaron’s own series, the dragon prince, is also not very good.
So I believe those 3 together can make miracles, but separate they’re not quite good.
Personal opinion.
Nice. I was wondering how they would continue the story after Korra and I'm glad they decided to turn everything upside down with a huge cataclysm because that sounds a lot more interesting than just doing another timeskip and landing in the modern world.
Avatar - Seven Havens
I like the concept, sounds really cool. I look forward to more Avatar.
But I worry the concept shits on Korra's legacy even more, "It's just another one of Korra's failures".
Also Jinora better have been dead before the world blew up, otherwise where was her dues ex machnia world saving bull shit???
Makes me sorta sad tbh. "Seven Havens" sounds like there are seven places where it's safe and the rest of the world is destroyed. Sorta like how it was in Avatar Wan's time. This world that I grew up with has been shattered and the stories of the characters that I've loved now mean so little.
Please be good. I shall remain skeptical until then...
That would be amazing! I can't wait.
