New Avatar TV Show?!?!?
Yes, you read that right: there is going to be a new Avatar tv show! I almost crapped when i read that myself, but guess what? I has pictures!!
First off, the name (for right now, because its still in development) is "Avatar: The Legend of Korra." Oooooo, sounds promising, right? Evidently it will follow Korra, one of the great-grandchildren of Aang, the main character of the original show, and his wife Katara, also from the original show. She is now the new Avatar, from a waterbending tribe from the looks of it. It takes place 60 or 70 years after the original.
So this first picture is of the main character, Korra, standing on a...thing, looking out at Republic City, as its called. The story is that the city, while being a veritable melting pot for all nations and tribes and people, has become overrun by crime and stuff. My guess is that Korra becomes like a Batman type figure in the city, all while learning that shes the new Avatar and coming to grips with all that jazz. But there has to be more to it than that, so here hoping. I have another picture, but im not sure it is an official picture from the actual show, but it looks like it could be.
It looks like Korra is meeting Aang, long after hes dead, while hes a spirit. Like i said, could be just a fan made picture, or maybe it could be real, not sure. But it sounds like it could be a solid show, just like the first one.
All in all, im excited. That show and the world it created for itself is waay too cool to just let die with the original. Besides, with the failure that was the movie and because it was such a slap in the face so to speak, there has to be SOMEthing to lessen the pain from that disaster. So i guess us fans of the show can take comfort that M. Night Shaymalan didnt completely kill our beloved Avatar.
Now for the bad news: the release date for the show has been set for late 2011. Im talkin like November 2011. Thats the only info i could find about its release. But hey, if thats the ONLY bad thing, then im okay with that. I can be patient.
Heres hoping that 2011 will surprise us all with this new incarnation (or REincarnation haha! Get it?) of the series and be as awesome as the first.
