    An interesting strategy. I’d have paid to go watch it at the cinema. No way in hell am I getting a sub to watch it though.

    I was just looking yesterday to see if they finally gave the original series a proper remaster for blu ray. Nope. Still a shitty HD upscale.

    From all the stuff I’ve heard about this new Avatar series and having recently watched an hour plus long video on Kora, it makes me want to rewatch all of Kora again because I’m genuinely excited to see if this Seven Havens series is gonna be good.

      Honestly I tried rewatching Korra recently cause my partner had never watched Avatar so we were watching the whole thing. We couldn’t make it through Korra, it was just painful. The Korra’s dynamic with pretty much all the villains were fucking shit. The Equalists and Zaheer easily being the worst. Zaheer was the worst in my opinion. The Equalists felt entirely unresolved, and Zaheer just felt like an inconsistent strawman. It sucks cause the Equalists in particular were an interesting villain with a lot of potential, but they just dismissed it all by being like “oh the leader is a liar, so I guess we can just ignore the valid concerns and problems that birthed the movement in the first place.”

      I’m hoping the new show does better.

        The one plus side to the Equalists not feeling resolved properly means that I now have a very solid writeup for my Avatar Legends campaign that I’m running where I can make the Equalists the primary antagonist and my party can basically do what the avatar forgot to after the Water tribe civil war started. Seriously though, even if they weren’t the primary villains anymore, that movement wasn’t founded from nothing A on just helped it along, there’s no reason it couldn’t keep showing up in small ways throughout the series.
