In other news, Aang Jr. will be played by... J. "J.J." K. Simmmons?! And... series ain't comin' out until 2012 :(

[Kyanbu The Legend]

I thought we were seeing it Fall 2011. Ah well, the wait will be well worth it.

[Premmy]

You have absolutely no idea how happy I was when I first heard of it way back and that happiness hasn't gone away YET
J.K. Simmons
I'm gonna field a guess that Katarra did most of the raising for that one.

[Lumenskir]

Oh man, I briefly saw "Lieutenant" and "Lance" and got an immediate Lieutenant Daniels boner. Henriksen is an ok dude though.

Is this still going to be a 12-episode self-contained story? I have literally no idea where I first read that, but it's such a good idea I'm kind of hoping to will it into being.

apparently they extended it by another 14 episodes, which is why it got pushed back.

Well, that's compoundedly disappointing.

How is random unfunny fanart in any way 'obligatory'? Unless it's a veiled critique about how these new Avatar discussion threads without puns in the title are equally shitty? Because if so, that's just really strained.

[Azisien]

She's so attractive why can't she be real!

But seriously, even if there was an extension (source?), I was looking forward to late 2011. 2012 seems so far away.

[Pip Boy]

This user would like to express its excitement at hearing this news. It is so overcome with joy that it may continue making more of those bothersome noises it has been making over the last few moments continually until I am forced to punish it.

[Magic_Marker]

And I was making such great progress.

Whelp I have until the air date and then I it's balls to the wallz Avatar 4 evar again.

Shit.

DiMartino: Korra, we kind of describe her as a fiery waterbender. She’s very pugnacious. Kind of in your face. We wanted to create a new Avatar that was completely the opposite of Aang. So, whereas Aang was the peaceful, nomadic Airbender guy, she’s very tough, very headstrong, not scared to get into a fight, and kind of picks fights with people too sometimes. So she’s definitely totally the opposite of Aang so it has been kind of fun to write her character and put her in situations that Aang never would have gotten into.

Thread title accuracy confirmed.

Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, the creators of “Avatar: the Last Airbender” are readying the next chapter in the animated saga, titled “The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra.” The new series is due out mid-2012 on Nickelodeon.

Fuck James Cameron, M. Night: reconfirmed

Have you heard anything about whether there will be a sequel to the “Last Airbender” live-action feature film?

DiMartino: Uh, no. It’s definitely not up to us, so.

It pains me every time I have to read the series creators being asked about that fucking movie :(

these new Avatar discussion threads without puns in the title are equally shitty?

Does Korra look like someone with patience for any goddamn puns?

Does she?

(a: no she does not)

[Lumenskir]

But she’s also funny and has a lot of charm and vulnerability because she’s still growing up and trying to figure things out.

Yessir.

I have learned my lesson.

That seems forced.
What I am getting at is that you are not as funny as you think you are.

[Aerozord]

this is good, because I am actually getting sick of Avatar reruns. 4 hours worth of it a day is abit much

[Premmy]

Do they run reruns on nickelodeon or on their other network?

[Azisien]

Getting tired of Avatar reruns on a TV channel? You know you can change TV channels right?

Tons on Nicktoons, not sure about Nickelodeon

yes, but it saddens me that I even want to. I remember when even the re-runs I loved watching

I find too much of anything is a bad thing. Or if not downright bad, then boring I guess. If I popped in Avatar I would be on my seventh run of the entire series. But I'm taking a bit of a break and enjoying the art book on occasion!

[PCD]

So basically we should just spend the next year preparing puns for future threads I think.

What a Korrandry.

[The Wandering God]

The delay depresses me, but if it means more episodes, then I can wait. Interestingly enough, that post doesn't mention that Dante Basco will be voicing a character in The Legend of Korra. And since they got the same voice director I know the vocals will be top notch.

Until then, there will be the new comics from Dark Horse to tide me over.
