Yes please

J:
yay

Emaline:
J, I see the point you are trying to make, however, your linked thread is about the film which is only slightly related to the series. The is nothing wrong with posting a thread about a television series.

JD:
The movie is like the inbred cousin of the series anyway

I was a big fan of this idea until I saw that the girl is aangs sucsessor. This raises a whole lot of problems firstly if this is only set 100 years after the defeat of the forelord that seems a pretty short amount of time for the world to get sufficiantly fucked up to warrent a series. Especially as they won't want to discredit aang as someone who let trouble brew under his watch. Which means at most you've got  is the ten or so years between aangs death and korra's awaking as the avatar for what ever (we can assume) war is going to be the focus of the series to get going, and considering the fire nation had been leading their war for over a century and in that time all they had done was take out the air nomads and take over the smaller earth and water nation settlements, I have trouble seeing how this will have as much of a sense of real impending doom as the last airbender had

Leading on from that 100 years isn't really long enough to repopulate the air benders. Which I suppose could be a story point, so maybe not so much of a problem.

Also I see aang being her guide as a bit iffy. Long time fans of the series will want to see the aang we know and love, young, quirky, funloving, but he will have matured 90 odd years worth by then and people will expect to see this come through in his behaviour and way of talking. So again not impossible, it's just a really fine balance to hit.

And I suppose all it needs for my first point to be wrong is for there to be some clever and inventive writing and not simply a copy paste of th first series. Maybe korra's problems will spring from trouble in the spirit world. So I now seem to have returned to a place of "hey this could be pretty good" and for the moment I'll allow myself to be optimistic about it
