Tellus Explorer Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 So there's talk about a possible spin off film or show. Yakone will possible be featured, and Korra and Asami's relationship is rumored to be a main focus in this Netflix project.http://www.vcpost.com/articles/59244/20150420/the-legend-of-korra-movie-spin-off-updates-film-spin-off-features-yakone-netflix-set-continue-series.htmHonestly I like that they are together but don't care for a drawn visual, though the people want fluff so.....:idea: What are your thoughts?

The Drunkard Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 LoK's quality has been all over the place so I'm not sure how I feel about more of it. I couldn't see why/where Yakone was being considered, and I'm not sure how interesting he could be compared with villains like Amon or Zaheer.

red snow Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I'd be up for more episodes/animated movie. The show wasn't as "final" as Avatar was so there was more scope for additional stories. I also think they'd do better with Netflix regarding budget as that was a factor in the final season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, without his bloodbending there isn't much to the guy. Though he could become this group leader or something, with an army of bloodbenders? idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrim Fox Cauthon Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I would rather the show focus on a new avatar (or even a non-bender) and storyline. Korra and Asami's relationship ended well in terms of being open-ended for the series. Having additional episodes focused on their relationship is just begging for even more teenage relationship melodrama that can muck up the excellent way that LoK ended.

the hound of sansa Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I agree, they should focus on the next Avatar instead of showing more KorraI mean i liked Korra as a character but i never really cared for her Avatar group, Asami Mako and Bolin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is this is the first venture with Netflix so I can see why they want to play it safe. Even safer may have been to do a film about Aang and co as young adults but I do think their story ends much more than the Korra characters do. If it works I can imagine Netflix may approve of a new spin-off as then it would be something they'd be able to call their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malik Ambar Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Nooo! please don't ruin ATLA ! As for Korra, it ended like it ended too (hurried as it was). It wasn't a really consistent show, but they should let it rest in peace.If they're really eager to continue the franchise, a new avatar is the way to go.

All they have to do is slap "Avatar" on the title, and the entire internet will watch, consume, and blog it like there's no tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Fake news. Netflix being an online streaming service somehow guarantees that the movie, if ever it will be produced, will be accessible to a mature audience only.What?!Nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King in Black Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I eagerly await Shyamalan's live-action version starring Chloe Moretz as Korra, as she and her white friends beat the evil brown Indians who are after our jobs in a magnum opus of abysmal acting, bad special effects and some of the worst recorded lines in history such as "We were trapped under the water of the ocean.","It is time we show the Fire Nation we believe in our beliefs as much as they believe in theirs.","From my raid on the great library I have acquired this scroll which will lead us to the location of the ocean and moon spirits."

dog-days Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 If Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino and other people from the show's writing and design team turn out to be more than superficially involved, I'll be happy. Otherwise a little sceptical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Anti-Targ Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I don't like the idea of any LoK stuff angling exclusively to the "mature" audience, particularly based on Korra and Asami's relationship. This is a cartoon series and any spin offs / movies should be appealing to the entire Avatar fanbase. So while it is fine for any continuing story to openly acknowledge Korra and Asami's relationship the focus of any continuing Korra story should be her role as Avatar and her adventures in the world in that context. I wouldn't mind revisiting Aang and crew if the comic books of post Legend of Aang adventures are any good. The Aang crew are much more fun.

The ones I've read capture the characters and tone really well although the storyline's aren't everyone's cup of tea. I'd prefer something "new" but wouldn't mind overall. I think if they followed Aang, I'd prefer it was when they were the adults and the grown-ups from Korra are the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
