I've been hearing rumors lately of it getting picked up

>>88115677
Nonsense. Viacom/Nickelodeon doesn't have shit on Netflix because they're super greedy, so them selling or even letting a property like that come into Netflix would be an issue.

>>88115738
Korra is on netflix

>Netflix reviving old series to stay relevant

Probably

I seriously doubt it because the fandom is dead except for a fraction of very vocal tumblrites. Even if Netflix actually do it, it'd be a lesbian drama with almost zero bending

Just out of curiosity, if they did do another timeskip like they did with Korra, how far do you think they would go? another 100 years? That would place them firmly in the future.

>>88116254
I dunno, wouldn't it place them about right now? Or just a tiny bit into the future? Slightly-futuristic avatar would be cool. The world stays spiritual and slightly ancient, but with a tech twist

>>88116254
I want them to do something in modern day republic city

>>88115677
The rumor said that it will be a 3rd series, not a new book on Korra and that Moi will do the new series 100% due to Mir rejecting it due to stress (and doing Voltron:LD for Dreamworks).

It's Doug all over again.

>>88116254
I would rather see them go back into the past. The fantasy setting and overall world building in ATLA was more fun than big city setting in LOK.

>>88116217
No, thats NEET pandering.

>>88115877
Why must you lie?

>>88115677
Bryke doesn't want to do it right now, so it would have to be done without them. Which is a good thing, honestly, but I don't know what rights/contract shit they have. That might hamper production, if not outright halt it.

I don't know exactly how this stuff works, but I imagine they'd have to buy the rights to the franchise from Viacom. And they would certainly charge significantly more than it's worth simply because Netflix is a direct competitor to their business format.

The one possible factor making it more likely is that Nickelodeon drove down the price due to their poor handling of the series. Remember that the first season had fantastic ratings.

So the question is whether Netflix believes the property has enough potential to be profitable when it costs a premium, and also whether they should do it without the involvement of the creators, as dumb as those creators may be.

Whatever you heard is probably just fan rumors though OP, I've heard nothing of this.

>>88116254
They'd actually have to go even more than 100 years, because people live stupidly long in the Avatar universe, and they'd need a few years to make the new protag at least a preteen. Aang died young because he lost some years to the Iceberg. So the skip would be at least 110 years, if not more, setting it in the mid 21st century. Also the timeskip was only about 80 years from TLA.

They could, of course, just keep going with Korra, have Korra just die young, or my preferred option, skip ahead to the firebending Avatar and make it cyberpunk. They can't really go with mid-21st century because that's just an awkward time.

I'd watch it

>>88116254
I want cyberpunk Avatar.

>>88116254
It doesn't matter what they do. They've written themselves into a corner.

What good would bending be in a time frame with assault rifles and artillery?

>>88117489
No, kuvira attacked the city, which was an unrecognized imperial regime that aggressively took over the Earth Kingdom and then tried to expand. It would hardly be fair to charge the republic Wu set up with those crimes.

>>88117580
That's not the same at all. The people in control of Germany at the start of WWII were officially recognized as the people who should be in control of Germany, not a group of individuals who illegally seized power and then tried to expand.

Legond of Korra specifically?
Not a chance, it did so bad the second half of last season stopped airing it on television and had to be posted online.

However the Avatar franchise is so huge that'd I doubt we'll see the last of it.

>>88115677
Probably just nosense desu.

But even if it came to be i doubt it would bring that many fans back to it. I can't speak for others but i wouldn't watch it, not without some major retcons to book 2 and 4.

So as much as i would love to see more of Korra, i doubt it could get enough viewers to be worth the effort, and even if it got made it would be a continuation of what we got and that kinda killed the hype for avatar.

>>88118168
I'm talking about a new series, not a continuation of Korra.

>>88118168
>Not a chance, it did so bad the second half of last season stopped airing it on television and had to be posted online.

Is that true? Damn, that's actually a shame. I like Korra's world a lot.

>>88118400
Earth Avatar

>>88118817
Not him, but i actually think it's worse than that. If i remember correctly it was taken off air halfway through Book 3 not book 4.

I don't know why though, but it was losing viewership rapidly at that point. Wether it was due to Nick or the show i'm not sure, personally i think it was both, though mostly show writing.

>>88116666
>skip ahead to the firebending Avatar
great idea
>make it cyberpunk
horrible idea

>>88116475
This.

The world didn't feel fantastical when they had radios and planes and shit. They should just drop the focus on the Avatar cycle and set it while Aang was in the iceberg, and make it about a bunch of dumb fucking kids who think they can find the Avatar thus giving them a quest.

As nerdy as this would be, I would only be interested in an else-worlds version based on the "Scorched Earth" fanfic.

Please no more shitty Korra series. Just start fresh with a different era.

>>88120371
Adventures of Roku series when?

Hows about an Avatar show set in a 1980s setting?

I would be okay with a fifth season of Korra too.

>>88116666
Advancing the timeline in nonsensical ways was part of why the Korra setting felt worse.
The other part was shitting all over past lore.

These two are Kimiko and Poi. Kim is a fire noble, tasked to find and guide the Avatar. I forget if Poi was a servant of the family, or adopted, but she's like a sister to Kimiko.

>>88115677
From what I gather Netflix okays the revival of shows that have rabid fanbases which are vocal on the interwebs.
How have the LoK fans held up post-show and outside of /co/?

>>88116475
Prequels are a writing landmine and I wouldn't trust Bryke to write my Christmas cards.

>>88115677
It's an unsubstantiated rumor. The show is over, the franchise continues through the comics. Yeah, I'm sorry, too.

>>88116784
You're saying that like writing yourself in a corner isn't an Avatar tradition.

>>88117600
None. They couldn't even follow through with having planes and replaced them with impractical tech to make bending look good.

I loved the idea of the Cold War-style setting but hated almost everything that /co/ came up with. I just didn't like it very much at all and it was too reminiscent of A:TLA.

I've always wanted to give it another go, but completely disregard what we came up with before.

>>88127159
I thought the stuff co came up with was all rpetty good, but we all got bogged down with trying to add wierd shit in that didnt mesh well.
Which would be fine if it were only a couple of us doing it, but we ALL did it.

>>88127352
Like what?

>>88127554
The cyborg airbender who fights using soundwaves was a step too far and that came pretty early

But at the end of it all, as always, it was waifus that did the project in. Everyone wanted to argue about the female characters and what traits they should have, what their stories should be.

>>88127554
i tried to force a kaizo with a gf and my whole taxman origin.
sandsketcher forced his book 4 really hard.
there was a lot of other stuff that ic ant remember cause im drunk and it was 2 years ago.

But the main takeaway is we never truly learned to work as a gorup and there were just too damn many of us throwing in random ideas.

>>88127652
>The cyborg airbender who fights using soundwaves was a step too far and that came pretty early
That honestly doesn't sound TOO bad, considering the crazy shit that came around the second half of LoK. But then a lot of people don't really like LoK.

>But the main takeaway is we never truly learned to work as a gorup and there were just too damn many of us throwing in random ideas.

Don't. History repeats itself. Get a group of 5-6 people at best and work with them if you must, but DO NOT try to open source it.
