I just want to say I am a fan of the original shows of Avatar the Last Air Bender and The Legend of Korra and I am absolutely pissed off about the way this series and IP have been treated by the execs at Nickelodeon and Paramount. This series is by far the most amazing and profound IPs to ever come from this production company and they treat it like it belongs in the dustbin of failed nickelodeon ips. I have been watching ATLA and TLoK from the beginning recently and the depth of storytelling and animation that exists in these shows can only be found along side the heights of Eastern anime. Why is it that TLok wasn’t even broadcast on TV all the way though to it’s last season? Why wasn’t Aang: The Last Air Bender given a guaranteed theatrical release? Paramount and Nickelodeon are absolutely trashing their own golden IP due to marketing bullshit. Please will anybody say they understand how good these shows are? How they are better than 99% of the garbage produced by these companies?
