    That's dumb. Avatar was avatar before avatar was avatar. Now that avatar can't be avatar anymore, will casual fans still know it's avatar?
    I don't have proof, but the way it went down.. I believe James Cameron said he'd made claims to "Avatar" years previous with something written already or..something equally stupid, so the people making the new series had to go with a title change.

    Yeah.. just looked it up, he had it trademarked, and actually came up with it in 95-96 with the script.. so yeah. I think it's retarded as fuck he did that to Avatar: The Last Airbender and what not.. but alas. That's why the movie (terrible as it was) didn't have "Avatar" in the title.

    But yeah, I'd say casual fans will still know based on Mike and Bryan.

    I have a new found dislike for James Cameron for being a total douche now. Seriously? He thinks something called Avatar: The Legend of Korra would get confused with his Avatar? ...Douche.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Technically not as they didn't make Katara Leia, that's Padme, so the Han and Luke roles make sense.

    Especially silly comparing a good-but-forgettable-movie in which the "Avatar" played mostly a surface role, to a wildly popular running animated series in which the "Avatar" plays a central role.

    I'd argue that more people (the average joe) know James Cameron's Avatar than the Airbender series, and they could potentially leverage that to keep the name being used elsewhere as the prominent title.


    Even M Night's horrific live action adaptation of the series didn't sport Avatar anywhere in the title.
    Spoiler: show
    Why the fuck is it getting a sequel?

    Are they really doing a 2nd book? This would be... uber bad. Unless someone else directs it.

    A new director, and a new cast/crew.

    Told bf the 'bad' news and he said "No, that's actually good news. There's no way it can be worse than the first one."

    Silly. Of course it can be worse than the first one. The first movies of a 'trilogy' are typically the best ones.

    :>

    But yes, that abomination should be forgotten forever.

    There's actually something floating around that we may get to see the first episode on March 24th if we got 100k likes and what not on a korranation website (which I believe we've already gotten lol).. the fanbase for Avatar (the real Avatar).. while rabid with shippers is absolutely amazing.

    They better not screw this up.

    Don't get me wrong, I've got a lot of faith in this team, but I don't want to build my expectations to the point where they can't possibly meet them.

    One thing though, one thing that I really hope gets resolved.

    I hope someone finds the sword Sokka lost in the finale. That would be badass.
