    Something I'm sort of confused over: what's stopping a random person from learning all 4 basic forms of bending?

    Nothing confirmed but i would guess this fall or winter. Because it would be shitty of them to release a new season next year when we only got a pilot season with 12 episodes this year.

    It's a combination of genetics and spirituality that defines whether someone has the ability to bend (Fans speculate anyway.), the Avatar is just special in that they can bend all four inherently; the creators have never gone into real detail about the nature of the avatar and the "why" they can do it other than the excuse of being the avatar. This doesn't mean that other benders can't study techniques of other elements and apply them to their own element. Iroh developed Lightning Redirection from water bending techniques.

    They only had animatics at Comic-Con, i can't seem them have fully animated by the fall, then again if the animations were being worked on at that time. Then maybe.

    But I don't think we'll see season 2 until 2013.

    Funny, cause he did the Joker's voice for Scooby Doo Mystery Inc's first season two episode. But there it worked more as a joke...

    No solid plans for one. Paramount is simply expanding its animated division and Nickelodeon properties like Dora The Explorer, The Legend Of Korra and Monkey Quest are just one of their many IPs that they may work on

    I think having a Legend of Korra film right now would be weird. The current story would be going on some kind of weird tangent.

    As an expansion of the series after its TV run is completed would make a lot of sense to me though.

    Why not do an animated movie of the original series? That storyline is almost entirely over (once The Promise: Part Three is out), so there's plenty of room.

    Would be even more awesome if it took place when everyone's an adult, because we haven't seen a lot of that yet.

    We already saw what was basically Roku's life story in an ATLA episode, I don't think it would work with Roku. Kyoshi however would be interesting.

    Momo was going to be Monk Gyatso incarnated, but they scrapped that idea. You can definitely see it throughout the series, though.

    The original series was better than Korra has been so far in several ways in my opinion, so I'd start with that.

    Why did anyone push for a second book. Shit I hope its good because Korra's been somewhat disappointing so far.

    Really if they had the books/seasons to 4 in the first place. They would have time to think. The whole bloodbending thing wouldn't have felt so cheap to accept in my opinion.

    I get the feeling with the Korra series, they spent more time focusing on it looking amazing rather than building characters and storylines, i mean they just kept showing off loads of art of the backdrops and items throughout the story saying "oooooooh yeah republic city looks so amazing with the lantern night backdrop" rather than going "well we're going to develop x character here and z character there so they become integral to the plot and the plot is going to be related to point b here and is going to develop into a series finale noone sees coming!"
