Avatar the Last Airbender

[Dr.Epic]

You're only missing Level Up commercials. If there were Avatar ads or something, they aren't being shown much.

What?! That's not even the right channel. It's bad enough I hate Level Up and ever time I watch Cartoon Network (for the few good shows they have) it seems as though they play ads for Level Up every commercial break, they're also showing ads for it on different channels?

Level Up, please just die. You're basically Captain N: the Gamer Master except far worse and less accurate to video game culture.

Back on topic, maybe this is a good thing. There could be commercials for Korra on Cartoon Network.

Well the intro has been released. It's pretty cool I guess.

I think my brain just exploded from the awesome.

I am so frikken' excited about this series. It seems like it could be even better than the first one.

[dehro]

I approve of this.

Yes that is sometimes done to get around US copyright laws.

That's nothing new. I saw it awhile back. The animation looks REALLY good. Better than the first show and that's saying a lot.

Anyone else think that at some point that enormous statue of Aang will be destroyed during the show's run?

That or animated by avatar mode Korra similar to the water avatar Aang in the season 1 finale.

[dehro]

clearly it's nose will be chopped off

[Dusk Eclipse]

Holy Carp..... that was AWESOME!!!

[Hiro Protagonest]

Didn't anybody in this thread other than me and Dr.Epic follow my instructions to find it through Google?

I didn't link it directly because someone said earlier that the designers didn't want it linked. Meh, I guess it's fine now, I think this is a different website from the one I found anyway.

But then you have to worry about some kid with a magic glowing light sword attacking the colossus's weak points for massive damage. Or a former god of war fighting the thing through the streets and buildings of the city.

Metal-bending voice amplifiers and fireflash boxes?

Korra seemed to come across as a bit boorish and country, so maybe they only have all that stuff in Republic City and haven't spread it around to the rest of the world yet.

[Zeful]

We also got to hear Tenzin's voice. It was awesome.

We also got to hear more of Korra's voice. It was awesome.

Really nice voicework so far, but then that was true for A:TLA as well.

Well, I just drooled all over my keyboard.

Asura's Wrath

[Hiro Protagonest]

Me not get reference.

Don't worry, the game was only recently released in America.

The main character's also a dead ringer for Exalted infernals, ability-wise and somewhat in his goals too.

Edit: Ninja'd! My link was different though. It was to Wikipedia.

[Flickerdart]

After watching that trailer, it seems to me that Asura actually has no arms, which is six less than the amount of arms that I was promised.

[Hiro Protagonest]

Here's how it goes: Asura normally has two arms. When he's in a powerful state, he has six. When he beat back the finger of a god the size of a small planet, he cracked five of his arms into uselessness and they fell off. The sixth fell off when he punched another god. He then proceeded to beat that second god with no arms. Later, he grows them back somehow (I haven't actually played the game, just watched clips).

Asura's Wrath

That guy looked like the Homestar Runner. Is he a terrific athlete?

Short version: He's a god-level martial artist. Yes.

Forget photography! I do believe I saw her flip over a car!

Also, did anyone else notice an art deco theme to the city? I know people were saying Steampunk stuff before, but I'm definately getting an art deco 20s kind of vibe.

Tank-> Car is not a very difficult step at all. Especially since they already had the makings of a truck.

True enough. But the one in the video looked like a nice Rolls Royce or something like that. Rubber tires, not treads. I'm assuming internal combustion, too, not a boiler system like a lot of the old fire nation tech. Of course, either one is probable. I suppose I was just surprised by what was clearly recognizeable as an automobile, and not some parodied tech that pops up in the series occassionally.

"God-level martial artist"? So, this guy?

[Hiro Protagonest]

I don't have time to watch that since I'm loading the playthrough, but I mean he has human athleticism and martial arts turned up to 11, with some magical augmentation like the ability to make ranged attacks with his fists, grow an extra four arms, and unleash a burst of fire to harm things close by.
