I like "Legend of Korra" ... I really do. All the pro-bending stuff really gets me pumped, and it's pretty damn beautiful to look at. I love the addition of more "modern" technical advances to the "Avatar"-not-James-Cameron-universe - like the radio, and the fifties style cars. And, I'm likin' (almost) all of the characters I've been introduced to so-far - Korra's a little spit-fire, Mako's hotter than hell (no pun intended), Bolin reminds me so much of a certain boomerang-chuckin' carnavore, "Kataang"'s grand kids are beyond cute, and ... even though, it took me a LONG time to comprehend how AANG - Mr. Lighter-than-air, Mr. Joyful - could possibly father someone so stiff, stern, and humorless ... I'm starting to warm up to Tenzin (although, Lin Beifong make take some more getting used to ... she's much too ... reserved - to be Toph's daughter).
... I miss the old Gaang so damn MUCH! Korra's team doesn't even have a cool name. *pouts* Through losing them, I feel like I've lost an entire group of really close friends. I even found myself tearing up at certain moments during the show's premiere. I'm starting to forget what YOUNG Katara looks like, and when her elderly counterpart told us ... or told KORRA point-blank that Sokka was ... gone - I swear to all that is right, I almost fipped my snitz. (Snitz (n) - ... I ... really have no idea what it means).
I mentioned before that Bolin reminds me a lot of Sokka - he's got plenty of girl's chasing him (even though Mako's clearly the better looking one), and he's clearly meant to be a new comic relief for all us Avatards. But. He's. NOT. Sokka. Nor is Lin Pole-up-her-butt ANYTHING like her butt-kickin' mother! (I'm begining to see a lot of Katara in Tenzin, so I'll leave him alone).
Anywho, as much as I'm beginning to like Bryke's little spin-off ... ya can't beat the classics (I don't think the old show really qualifies as a classic, being only a few years old but ... I don't care)
Tell me what YOU think, fellow deviants! ('Cause I'm SO confused)
