If only there was something in the trailer that would tell us whether or not this was the final season. And by the way, when Books 3 and 4 were ordered, Mike and Bryan said that that would be the end of the series. And that order was made before Book 2 aired to very disappointing ratings, so, as with the original series, it's ending when the creators want it to.

Thread title should have been Legend of Korra Book 4: They're All In Their Twenties Now. Also, there is no way in hell we could have seen Nickelodeon advertise a show starring a bunch of twenty year olds. I'm willing to bet the move to online-only was specifically caused by Mike and Bryan going "So we end the third season with Korra in a wheelchair and Book 4 happens three years later when none of our main characters are teenagers anymore."

MacBook Air Gamer posted:IGN has a clip of the first two minutes of the Book 4 premiere, which shows a bit about how Republic City and Asami are doing. I really hope they don't go in the direction of having the prince getting redeemed so monarchy is totally okay again you guys. Also we'd better get some real information on just what the hell happened in Ba Sing Se.

Guys maybe we should use spoiler tags. Kuvira also has the baddest-rear end fighting style there is. BrianWilly posted:I'm more worried that Kuvira -- who's really awesome so far -- will pull an Unalaq and ends up being the one who sent the bandits after Kai and Opal, just so the governor has no choice but to turn to her protection.

DutchDupe posted:It seems odd Bolin is working for Kuvira if she did something that really hurt Opal's family. I hope Suyin is alright. Anyway, it's clear that Su Yin is okay, it just seems that she seemed to think the Earth Kingdom being divided into dozens of sovereign states was for the best, while her son disagreed and went with Kuvira.

Sithsaber posted:That's why I jokingly abhor this show's message. I had 11 year old cousins who saw the equalists and just labelled them all "jealous". 3 years later and they labelled the ferguson protestors as a mob of jealous people. Back when I was a kid my superhero cartoons taught me to mistrust the powers that be. Seriously, watch "When Extremes Meet" again. A lot of what that episode does isn't followed up on, but you can't say it isn't there.

Sithsaber posted:That was a wasted opportunity. 70% of RC's problems were fixed by Raiko being elected and when it looked like the other 30% (along with duck off spirit vines) would do Raiko in it turned out that grumpy spirits just gave the political establishment millions of tourist bucks. (Along with looted treasuries the show will never talk about) One of the worst things about the ending of Book 1 was that it seemed like the three non-Tarrlok assholes on the Councils were all gonna stay in power and poo poo would still suck. I'm sure Mike and Bryan have learned their lesson and we're not going to end the series with Prince Wu on the throne.

Sithsaber posted:Missed Opportunity #102: Bumi was seriously mishandled. He could have retained his rank and headed a joint UR-WL escort service. Doing that would have given us real family tension (Bumi wouldn't be invited), a hint at what its like when the military does favors while going off the book and it could have given Asami a excuse to have purpose outside of bankrolling every single fieldtrip and playing Korra's PR assistant.

You can't stand Bolin whistling for five seconds but a Varrick, whose whole character who is jokes with that level of painful awkwardness is golden. Also he got Mako thrown in prison and has never apologized for it and in fact talks to him cheerily about how great his plan to frame him worked.

Raenir Salazar posted:Wu's portrayal I think definitely shows him as being well meaning to a degree. He has shown none of the arrogance that would immediately mark him as "Dickbag". Mako's from the slums and their extended family from Ba Sing Se are poors, and Wu has shown no inclination he cares about that, whereas a more unredepemptive character would certainly have shown some sort of contempt for Mako's station and how dare he mock him the Once and Future King.

This is probably best both Bolin and Mako have ever been. They both felt like identifiable and likeable characters during their argument. Also just caught the joke of the hotel being called "Four Elements" Also can I just say how awesome it is for a Nickelodeon show to have an incredibly tense scene where two women discuss geopolitics? Because that conversation between Su and Kuvira was basically Game of Thrones for teens. SpiderHyphenMan fucked around with this message at 16:42 on Oct 17, 2014 |

ShadowCatboy posted:Also, REAL mad props for how perfectly they portrayed Toph. The tone and inflections in her voice, the hardass attitude, and the casual picking gross stuff from her feet all really typify the Toph we knew and loved. I do hope she can go back to visit her kids and grandkids at some point. Bolin would totally freak out.

I actually like Prince Wu now, which is great. It didn't actually take that much to make him have his epiphany, which feels right, since he's never been malicious about anything, just sheltered and coddled. He's basically a child for reasons beyond his control, which makes him a great foil for Mako, the boy who was forced to grow up too soon.
