The Next Avatar Television Show Called 'The Legend of Korra'!!!

[Rebecca Congi]

Creators of the Nickelodeon television series Avatar: The Last Airbender are making a spinoff series called Avatar: The Legend of Korra. This follows a girl in her teens who is the next Avatar from the Southern Water tribe. Her journey takes her to the Republic City which is kind of like the Gotham City of the Avatar world. AND! Her air bending teacher is Aang's son, Tenzin. Which I am not entirely sure how that will roll out, because this is supposed to take place 70 years later, and obviously Aang must have married Katara, so that means if Aangs son is in his teens then Aang had him when he was in his 60's or 70's... and by that age Katara would have been obviously infertile... unless they make Tenzin an older father figure to Korra, kind of like how Iroh is to Zuko. 

What do you guys think will end up happening in this new Avatar series?!

SO EXCITED. I kinda wish they had just continued with the old characters (my, how terribly I deal with change), but I'm just glad they've decided to continue exploring what they can do with this stuff.

THAT IS SO AWESOME. ^_^ (I would type out my actual reaction,but it mainly involves a lot of spleeing,squeeing,and other such expressions of YUS!)

The preview picture they released is amazing.

YAY!!! horrah, and other celebratory words! finally more Avatar, it kinda sucks that they discontinued the other characters though. i hope that there will be lots of references to the first series.

There is a rumor that this new series is directly related to The Last Airbender series, and apparently there will be flashbacks to the series too. Also we may see Korra speaking to Aang in the spirit world, like how Aang spoke to Roku. :DD

[xetia]

yes!victorious!

I'm going with the whole Iroh to Zuko thing. I think Tenzin will be in his 50's. I also really like the idea of embracing the steam-punk aspects that they introduced in the first series, the fire nation vehicles, including The Drill.

Well, Tenzin will hopefully be more like a father figure, because with the whole reincarnation thing, it's be like hooking up with his dad. i just really hope we fin out what happened to all the guys in the fire nation. Zuko obviously married Mai, ( because the writers follow canon like crazy.) and his kid is probably on the throne, or maybe even his grandkid, but whatever happened to Zuko's Mom!? Poor Uncle Iroh, he's gone! *Sniff Sniff* ):

Did Azula stay in jail or did she get psychological help? Did Ozai die in prision? What about Toph? did she make up with her parents, did she get all girly, or did she stay Toph Norris? Haru, Teo, The Duke, even Longshot and Snellerbee I'm worried about. They'll definitely show Katara, so I'm not too worried about her. The shows writers are good at what they do, so it'll be good, but I hope they focus on the main character and not try to make this all about the Gaang again. It was a good series, but there were almost no loose ends(except the thing about Zuko's mom, but it's not bad to have a few loose ends.) so there's pretty much nothing else for them to talk about with the last series, except tell us: "Hey, this is who's still alive, this is where they are, this is how their life went." then they move on, maybe mention them a few more times. It's awesome that they're gonna have more technology, because the Fire Nation had the most advanced technology in the Avatar world, but they mainly, if not only, used it for war. It's good to know that the Fire Nation helped the rest of the nations with developing technologies.(Which they probably did, because Zuko would stop making weapons, so their resources would go into other things.)

The plot makes me think of a very well-developed fanfiction.

Still really freaking excited! let's all hope M. Night Shyamalan doesn't make a shitty movie of this one....

XD Gotham City of the Avatar world....
