The Legend of Korra Official Trailer

I am so relieved that the live action travesty was not the last Airbender thing we would get. This trailer for The Legend of Korra looks absolutely amazing. It takes place 70 years after the original series. I’m looking forward to the technologies found in what looks like a big ass metropolis. Already in the original series, we saw examples of some fairly sophisticated tech.

From the Avatar Wikia, Korra is from the Southern Water Tribe. By the time the show starts, she has mastered water, earth, and fire bending and must learn air bending from Aang and Katara’s son Tenzin. Yes please. Toph’s daughter is the head of the metal bending police force of the United Republic which is also a big FUCK YES!

I am so excited for this! We’ll have to wait until next year before the series starts, but I have a feeling it’s going to be well worth the wait.

    SOooooo very glad Shamalamadingdong’s Failbender didn’t kill the franchise. This looks like it has all the awesomeness of the original.

    Here’s a new vid Link Since Viacom is not liking free PR from fans?

    According to an inside individual I can only identify as Joaquim “2-Cents” (http://2-cents.deviantart.com/journal/42616367/) the video we have is at 120% speed, and the following is at the intended rate:

    I want this show so much! I want it now! Crunchy pants indeed.
    That said, I just hope they don’t make it TOO dark and edgy. For me, one of the great points of the original show was how optimistic it was (Except when Katara indulged in a touch of wangst).

    The original show was a little to late to hit the hd format for everything band wagon. This one looks a good deal ahead of it’s predecessor in production values. I am very excite if the series proper looks this good.
