So is this how Starwarsfags felt when the prequels ruined a pre-existing

I don't even think about it anymore. In my mind it's a separate thing from the original series.

>>91778008
Yeah but the shit they added with Avatar "wewuz" Wan completely fucks the entire series

Can someone explain what's so bad about this show without spoiling anything? I just finished ATLA and I'm wondering if I should download this.

>>91778029
Dude, the entire second season completely fucks with the lore, so you may as well consider it non-canon.

>>91778038
I watched the first 2 seasons and they were good so I have no idea what they are talking about

>>91778029
How so?
I felt that part was rushed a litte but over all Wan was the best part of Korra.

>>91778038
Real talk? Korra was perfectly average in every way, it had good points and bad points. The biggest problem is it was trying to live up to ATLA which is the best goddamn cartoon ever made.

If you loved ATLA, Korra ruins the setting, ruins the lore, ruins the characters, etc. If you just approach Korra as its own show it's perfectly watchable. It's just so different it's jarring.

>>91778038
Korra took things that were originally mysterious and interesting about the original series and fucked it all up. It also stars a Mary Sue bitch who accomplished everything the first series' main character did in the first four seconds of the show. It also ends with a forced lesbian relationship between two characters who have no chemistry for the sake of tumblr

>>91778038
The only bad season of Korea was season 2.Everything else was decent at worst. A lot of people on /co/ really dislike the show.

If I were you,I would watch the entire show and decide if you like it or not.

>>91778061
>over all Wan was the best part of Korra
Holy fuck.

>people on /co/ defending specific parts of korra and saying shit like "it wasn't THAT bad" just like prequelniggers defend episode 3 for being dark and edgy
It's like poetry, it rhymes.
now I see why /tv/ is so much better than /co/mblr

>>91778115
Yeah, we should start spamming /co/ with interracial porn threads and reddit memes so it can be as good as /tv/.

can korra fans reference one moment in which the show was self aware

>>91778102
E;R is an autistic edgelord. His opinions are just the hivemind of 4chan's regurgitated though a filter of /pol/-tier humour. That said, hes right about Korra being garbage.

>>91778223
There literally were two cuckposts on the catalog when I made that post /co/boi

It's okay to hate Korra without having to couch your opinion in reddit memes, anon. There's no need to seem trendy when talking about a cartoon that ended 3 years ago.

>>91778284
Korra is the second most reddit show (next to rick and morty) to have ever aired

>>91777957
For me first season was pretty good, then second fucked everything, thirs was partially redeeming and fourth was back to fuck. Wan and all the mythology fucked all the lore, I seriously hate this part.

>>91778038
I watched LOK and I liked it.

I now started watching ATLA, currently around episode 13 or so and I find it quite worse than LOK so far.

>So is this how Starwarsfags felt when the prequels ruined a pre-existing good story?

Pretty much exactly.

go fuck yourself you stupid fucker korra didnt anything to fuck up the show or the lore the only place that make shit like this thread is /co/

You know what I realised about Korra, that really makes it feel like the Prequels? Besides the obvious drop in quality and Raava=Midichlorians parallels, is how many characters they introduce to be main characters and then end up making a huge mess. There's too many people that are trying to be made too important, you really notice this by the end of S4 when the ending features a wedding by two characters that should have left the plot long ago.

Then there's the obvious points where they're trying to think of things for people to do and you can see them stood silently in the background (Asami for the entire show).

This isn't even mentioning the obvious fan pandering where every famous person is named after or related to an Avatar character. It really shows that they didn't have any faith in their product when they needed to keep reminding us of the last show.

>>91778726

This is either ascended tier bait, or the worst post I've ever seen

>>91778038

People will give you complex posts about how the problem was writing, S2, cast bloat, unnecessary lore expansion, whatever. But the answer is simple. The problem with LOK was Korra.

>>91778846
no you are a fucking fool you retards keep making this stupid fucking thread about how you hate korra and even if the thread is not even about her you crazy fucks try to make it about her the show was good the only place that keeps this shit up are a small minority of fools on /co/ the show ended years ago get over it

>>91778038
There's multiple problems with pacing, plotting, characterization and lore, but I think the core of it - it aimed above its standing. ATLA for all its praise was very simplistic - you are the chosen one, there's war of agression, go stop it.

Each season of LoK told a story that was more adult and morally complex, but halfway through they remembered that they are a kiddie cartoon made by kddie channel and the story broke down under its own weight.

If you're going to get this mad about it, then I would suggest just ignoring these threads. I get that it must suck to be on a board that constantly shits on something you like, but you just have to deal with it.

>>91777957
No, Star Wars was worse. TLOK isn't even *that* bad, and I give it a lot of respect for Korra choosing to leave the spirit portal open so the world can go maximum Mushi-shi, even though it's kind of just a side-ish thing

>>91778038
Season 1 is kinda bad, and if you had to wait for new episodes to come out, you'd get frustrated by the relative low quality and pacing of some episodes.
But it's worth watching and has some really good moments.

>>91777957
>muh prequels so bad

Grow the fuck up.

>>91777957
Are Star Wars prequels actually bad?

I don't like Star Wars at all, but prequels seemed like a fairly interesting story about rise and fall of a powerful space wizard, while original trilogy had very little interesting going on at all.

>>91779086
yea and some fag thats physically upset about a cartoon is fine then you stupid fucks stop shitting up avatar threads with your autism

Can someone explain why the opening continues to have the Avatars bending elements when they don't exist any more? Or why Toph called Korra "twinkletoes" when Aang's soul is gone forever?

Or why they set up that Zuko and his daughter could be in danger of Zaheer but then it never happens?

Hey, why did they paint Amon's argument of benders preying on non-benders as false and then show roving and unchecked bending bandits attacking non-bending villages for the entire rest of the show (which led to Kuvira, by the way)?

Can someone explain to me why Amon was wrong in his arguments, or Kuvira wrong in her actions?

>>91779120

Did Mandela die in prison for you or something? Was Al Gore president?

>>91779120
What the Prequels were ABOUT was absolutely astounding. Plapatine's rise to power is probably, as a concept, one of the most terrifying villain origin stories ever made for children's media.

The only issues are that:
1. Lucas can't write for shit
2. Star Wars is not meant to be making profound statements about politics

Though it did give us "So this is how liberty dies: with rapturous applause."

I'll defend the central concept of the Prequel Trilogy forever, just like I do with the central concepts of a lot of LoK (and Chrono Cross). But the execution in all of them was so bad that it ruined the entire experience.

The nostalgia goggles /co/ has for what is essentially a mediocre shounen show is fucking ridiculous.
Nothing about ATLA is that original or even 'well written' to anyone who has watched something like Yu Yu Hakusho or Dragonball. In fact it's very bland comparatively but since its the only shounen show /co/ really has they pour praise over it.

Korra at least attempted to try new things, not having a road trip plot in the first season and keeping it in a centralized city was a start, so was doing away with Korra not understanding each element (since we've already seen Aang learn all the elements and it would be boring to watch a second time).
So was having different villains for different arcs and the raavu thing was actually one of the high points of both series since it actually presented an interesting world with a character that was discovering shit for himself instead of just being told shit constantly.

The problem with Korra was Bryce being bad writers and shoehorning in romance when it wasn't necessary but just because a show isn't as 'perfectly bland' as ATLA and it has its low points, the high points where it actually tries sometimes executes interesting plotlines and character moments as well as having music that compliments the show are great though.

tl;dr Korra>>>>>ATLA

Korra is decent show that had glaring flaws but it was still enjoyable. I can tell you if they knew they would get 4 season from the get go the show wouldn't be anything we got.

It's crazy because at the end of season 3 they set up season 4 to be pretty good
>Red lotus members still out there
>Korra injured as fuck
>Air nation becoming the world police until Korra got better

We could have gotten a season with red lotus members still trying to go after korra, instead we got a shoehorned lesbian scene at the end with a Hitler dictator

>>91780352
I think there is no website on the internet that will ever watch LoK with an objective mindset. 4chan is also way too biased too be objective.

This isn't remotely true. Bryke was the problem, not Nick.

But avatar is the better overall show. Season 1 is just extremely slow.
I liked Korra more.

>>91780393

I mean, bryke is a problem but nigga, It was Nick's fault.

Korra was supposed to be a one season thing. But they got renewed for more seasons without knowing it.

>>91780448
Again, Ehasz could have still done it well. Bryke just fucked up their own franchise.
Stop using the "didn't know how many seasons" thing to excuse their obvious lack of talent.

>>91778229
I hate how political correctness is all over /co/, to the point that even some of the most obvious shit gets ignored for being "/pol/".

>>91780413
Nick treated the show like shit after it didn't have the same ratings as the AtlA but had already ordered the next seasons. They then tried to cut costs by having a different studio making the animations, but had to went back to Mir when that fell flat. Nick was also responsible for us getting the diashow episode because they cut the budget for the final season and it would have taken to fire people to make that actual episode they wanted to do. That Nick treated the show like shit is a well known fact.

>>91780496
Great, but again the show would still have been awesome if written by Ehasz. Fuck off, Bryke.

>>91780464
You say that like that was an option. By the time Korra was made a lot of the old crew was on different projects. Book 1 was lacking in writers because Bryke were the only ones there.

>>91780464
It was still as much as Nick's fault as it was brykes fault.

>>91780464
>Again, Ehasz could have still done it well

this meme again

>>91780527
They chose not to rehire the old writers for the first book, and then still didn't rehire the Ehaszes for the later ones. And apparently, "they" was Bryke, not the Nick execs, though I could be wrong here.

>>91780506
Sure because he was the only thing that made AtlA good. You know that list used to be longer but when more and more of that list joined Korra it was suddenly only Ehasz.

>>91780542
>Ehasz as head writer
>ATLA is good
>Bryke as head witers
>LoK is bad

Really makes you think.

>>91780557
The old writers were responsible for some of the only decent LOK eps, particularly in Book 3. I will concede though that some of them seemed to have lost their talent, especially the guy who co-wrote the horrendous Beginnings two-parter.

>>91780567
>Korra
>Bad

Just cause it's not copy paste from atla doesn't mean it's bad.
It had flaws out the ass but was still enjoyable.

>>91780549
Nick's execs also kept Book 3 under lock and key that Book 4 was almost done by the time it actually aired. And it took fucking leaks for that to happen.

>>91780567
It's much worse than that: LOK didn't actually have any head writers. It's like they thought things would just work out fine without one.
>>91780599
Get the fuck out of here with that shit taste.

>>91780613
My tastes aren't shit. /co/s tastes are just unreachable.

>>91780600
And that's relevant... how exactly? I mean, >>91780425 still applies.

>>91780599
There were parts that I enjoyed, but on the whole I'd call it bad. It depends on how high your tolerance for bullshit is.

>>91780621
In the 2010s, perhaps. In the 2000s, they were very much reachable, as evidenced by the highly disproportionate amount of discussion of 2000s cartoons on /co/ to this very day.

Just face it man, it's not nostalgia. I know it's hard to accept that things have gone to shit.

>LOK didn't actually have any head writers
They weren't credited as such, but Bryke were very much in creative control.

>>91780625
You all scream how they should have hired Ehasz but maybe thought about that Nick didn't let them when Book 1 failed in their eyes but they still wanted to milk that sweet sweet Avatar money?

>>91780672
Bryke were technically in creative control of ATLA too. The credits reflect the degree of involvement.

>>91780705
I don't understand this post.

I liked it better when the Avatar spirit was mysterious force that helped keep the world in balance.

Amon had good points and did nothing wrong.

The moment they knew they were no longer going to be a mini-series why didn't they just focus all 4 seasons on Amon, or the second one on him and make the 3-4 on Zaheer?

Also why is Korra's mother hotter than her?

>>91780726
I think he's talking about that Nick might no have wanted to hire a dude that was basically coming straight out of Futurama at the time. With that on your vitae you could ask for quite a salary. Ans if Nick did anything it was penny pinching the project.

>>91780804
Nick wasn't penny pinching until Book 4 and the severe drop in ratings. Book 2 was treated like Nick's favorite child back then.

>>91780708
Point being, they were the sole heads of story.

>>91780795
well how much was done at that point? If it was done pre-reveal, having the whole series be about bender/non-bender inequality would have been interesting and be the kind of message show shit's like them love to make

>>91780817
Why did they hire Studio Pierot instead of Mir for 2 and had to be literally strong armed to take Mir back?

>>91780829
MY point being, creative control != head writing. The degree of involvement isn't remotely the same, and it really, really shows.

>>91780835
It was Mir that didn't want to animate it. They were completely overworked with another project when Nick decided to continue LOK, but they decided to come back after all in the middle of the season (probably thinking the show was actually gonna turn out like ATLA).

There was no "strong arming" or penny pinching

>>91780832
They knew for awhile they were no longer going to be a mini-series. This why Asami was no longer made a traitor to the group.

It was before Endgame.

>>91780836
I don't understand why you are making a distinction here. Bryke wrote every episode of Book 1, how could you say they weren't the head writers?

I don't think Mir really cared about the show 'turning out like Avatar'. It was a job, plain and simple.

>>91780884
Book 1 was a different story (quite literally, too). I'm talking about the later seasons when many of the old writers came back. You could tell there wasn't nearly enough oversight for a cohesive storyline.

>>91780897
Dude, they practically chose to drop everything they legally could to come back IN MID-SEASON. Sounds like they REALLY wanted to animate it.

>>91780906
And Ehasz was still writing for Futurama if I remember right, so he was out too.

>>91780906
Someone had to fill that role though. You don't just tell the writers to write whatever they want. I am assuming that Bryke, in particular Michael oversaw that process, even if he did a shit job.

>>91780880
okay than yea. they really should have considered doing more rewrites regarding the last few episodes, especially that ending where she just gets her bending back after crying for a minute

>>91780922
Yeah, because they saw what a shit job the nips were doing.

This. Season one was alright in the first half, romance aside. It all went to shit in the last 4 episodes.

>>91778908
The problem with LoK was the forced idea of Team Avatar. People tagged along that had no chemistry with each other because Aang had a team with him that was like a family to him.
If you remove that you get Korra, Tenzin, Lin, people who had a reason to be involved in things interacting with each other and meeting new characters to show how thing are developing.

>>91782041
Yeah, this was one of the big problems, but it's wasn't remotely the only one.

>>91778038
It has a tendency to take the lowpoints of Atla and focus on that. It also tries to out do Atla every season but somehow fails at it.

>>91780380
Not just the animation. It’s the pacing, too, with the show basically consisting of filler, unconnected one-shots in random places with a moral at the end of each episode, as well as the childish plots. Episode 11 The Great Divide was painful to watch.

I’ll continue forward, though. I seem to recall people saying that Book 2 was the best in ATLA?

>>91784213
The Great Divide is pretty much the only Book 1 ep that fits your description, hence all the hate for it.

>>91781662
he's a /pol/ack who criticize cartoons like a /pol/ack would do
the end

>>91784213
>Book 2 was the best in ATLA?
Yes, by far really.

Great Divide is the most boring, pointless episode in the series. Did you like The Storm/Blue Spirit at least?

>>91778229
But he's right

For people that hate LOK, you guys sure do make a lot of threads for it

>>91784309
Not that anon, but TBS is a pretty shit episode and I'm amazed at the constant praise for it (not just on /co/, either). It's not even in the same fucking universe as The Storm.

>>91779976
>>91780358
Yep

The prequels dropped the ball in portraying Vader's fall, which is the reason they were made and people were willing to endure all the goofy shit for. But the rest wasn't that bad, we got the old Jedi order and clones and droid armies and stuff.

TFA so thoroughly messed up ROTJ's ending and by extension the whole arc of the six films so it all feels pointless. Like it had no reason to be made except to make money. Absolutely cynical, and we all fell for it. Not like George biting off more than he can chew.

Sure you can say just ignore it, but it's harder to ignore or gloss over sequel shit than prequel shit because Disney will be hammering it into our skulls forever.

>>91784426
We like the Avatar universe.

>>91784433
The Storm is better, but Blue Spirit is solid. It's a simple episode done well. Great action, great music, great atmosphere, and a cool but somewhat predictable ending. What makes it 'shit'?

>>91778086
he's right

One of the biggest problems is that Korra's clique had zero chemistry with each other. Every single one of them was far more entertaining when they were off doing their own thing. Hell, even Korra had a more interesting dynamic with Lin and Tenzin than she ever did with her friends. Even Mako was briefly entertaining when he was being dragged around by the prince.

>>91784571
Aang "running like the wind" is such an asspull that we pretty much never see it again
The archers are a massive plothole for the overall series
Zhao only knocking out the "thief" is practically the definition of Idiot Ball
Katara doesn't start to hallucinate like Sokka does, fucking favoritism
The whole episode is full of childish, cringey "comedic" moments

>>91780393
It's funny how you say if they could plan ahead it would've been great. And then complain about season 4 which they had time to plan for.

>>91784666
None of those detract enough away from the episode. It was still solid overall. The Zhao thing was pretty retarded though, I'll grant you that.

>>91784308
I mean I agree that Lok is hot garbage but god, he sounds like that limp wristed dork in class in highschool. How can anyone take him seriously?

>>91784753
Asami: It's good to have the old crew back together.
Me: No it isn't.

>>91780667
You aren't wrong. Too bad no one will care.

Korra is still better than 90% of modern cartoons and season 2 was the only real bad season.

Fight me.

>>91785138

90% of modern cartoons are Chinese knock offs and direct-to-dvd shit for toddlers meant solely to trick old grandmothers.

>>91785138
That's exactly what I think. My friend of African descent

>>91786047
This. Sorry, >>91785138, you've been BTFO'd.

>>91784309
The Storm: the flasbacks were correct, although the present event with the storm itself felt kinda stupid, and I couldn’t help raising an eyebrow when the old lady appeared at the entrance of the cave. It was a nice touch that Aang has reasons to feel responsible for disappearing. On the funny side, it seems that Aang’s caretakers were just as retarded as Korra’s. I’m seeing that all mistakes and fumblings the avatars make are the fault of their teachers. By the way, has any avatar ever mastered/unlocked an element thanks to the help of these guys? Aang only learned the other three once he escaped the temple, just like Korra learned her first elements before entering their custody and only managed to unlock her fourth after she escaped from those retards.

The Blue Spirit: Correct episode for the most part, although the identity of the spirit was predictable, and the air-running and the scene with the ladders were pretty much retarded. The gambit the spirit used at the end to get permission to escape was good.

>>91790244
I would think most Avatars master the elements because of their teachers. The only exception would be Aang i guess since he had to learn it from other kids (though they could be considered masters themselves). Korra however did learn to master the elements from her teachers, she was only capable of very basic bending at the age of four.

kek people criticizing E;R by calling him an evuhl nahzee and ignoring the legitimate points he makes

I'm deeply triggered by your bizarre use of "correct"

>>91792147
Star Wars fag here, burying legitimate points under long-winded tangents spent memeing about identity politics is a great way to make your thesis inaccessible to people who don't inhabit your internet hugbox.

I counted over a dozen times where his TFA video could have made legitimate points about hollow virtue signalling, but just spent the entire segment spouting equally hollow memes instead.

He needs to stop shilling beloved /pol/ "talking points" and keep his fucking videos on topic for more that a minute at a time.

>>91792344
He's not memeing, he's making his videos for redpilled people only.

You know what a "meme" is, right?
>he's not propagating a specific cultural thoughtform using repetition, he's just pandering to a like-minded subculture in a repetitive manner

But hey, here's an anime girl reaction face to make it easier to disregard my post on the grounds of differing subculture

>>91793347
Again, he's not "pandering". He knows most people won't be receptive to his deep critiques (as opposed to the bullshit you see on most LOK sites), so he doesn't bother trying to target them.

>>91792150
Yeah, my fault. I was trying to say that there are no big flaws in those episodes, but I think my overall problem with ATLA so far is not only the episodes themselves but the lack of mid-term objectives.

When watching LOK there usually were several arcs going on simultaneously with objectives in the horizon for the next 2 or 3 episodes (even if a few of them were trivial like getting on Mako's pants) plus the long term objective of beating the season's villain, making the story flow quite dynamically from one goal to the next. ATLA, on the other hand, at least for season 1, feels like a collection of random episodes with no major connection, only linked by the one abstract, very long term goal of mastering everything and beating Ozai.

So, even if the episode is "correct", I fail to get engaged. I keep forgetting where they are going and why, and I end not caring for any of the random places they visit.

>>91794572
But LOK suffered because of that. The focus was on progressing the plot, and not actually making a good episode. Many episodes became extremely unremarkable, if not outright bad.

>>91781088
It's realistic, honestly. Shame that no one called them out on that shit.

>>91778038
The Korra x Mako plot felt like they were trying to get Zutara fans to like the show, imo.

>>91781088
Mako was such a horrible person.

Bolin deserves better than this jackass as a brother.
