“That’s why we’re drinking tea: To calm the mind.” – Uncle Iroh

When I noticed Adagio Teas sold Avatar-branded teas, I knew I had to pick up one in honor of everyone’s favorite wisdom-deliverer. Looks like they have flavors for Aang, Zuko, Toph, and more. Happy to see Iroh’s flavor recalls the Jasmine Dragon, although his favorite flavor was Ginseng. Still, I can’t imagine he’d turn down a fresh cup of tea, regardless of herbal origins.

What tea are drinking today? Did you know tea pairs perfectly with past episodes of Republic City Dispatch? Little known fact.

“I am Wan Shi Tong, he who knows ten thousand things. And you are obviously humans. Which, by the way, are no longer permitted in my study.”

I’m not sure Wan Shi Tong will be thrilled with an Airbender back in his library….

Listen to Two Exclusive Clips From the Legend of Korra Soundtrack

Was happy to bring the Korra love to New York Magazine’s Vulture. Head over there to hear samples from the music and an interview with composer Jeremy Zuckerman of The Track Team.

Plus: They’re having a soundtrack signing at Comic-Con! I am super jealous if you’re going to be there.

First look footage of The Legend of Korra: Book 2.

Nickelodeon’s abrasive graphics and muzac don’t really set the tone here — but I like what I see. While it doesn’t have the majesty and unexpected elegance of Book 1’s Republic City setting, Book 2 promises a Miyazaki-style fantasy arc. Maybe that’s why it looks a bit more “cartoony” than Book 1. The spirit animals are bubbly and the backgrounds play to that aesthetic over the hyper-detail of RC. I’m glad their taking risks rather than replicating what worked in the first season. – Patches

Legend of Korra Season 2 Arriving in Fall 2013

That’s what Nickelodeon bigwig press releases suggests. Here’s the quote that was attached to Nick’s upfront:

“For the 2013-14 season, the network will also roll out new episodes of returning hit animated series, including season two of The Legend of Korra, SpongeBob SquarePants, The Fairly OddParents, Winx Club, T.U.F.F. Puppy, Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness and Robot and Monster.”

I need to go unlock a Chakra that will allow me to be at peace with this news. – Patches

How are you dealing with the lack of Korra in your life?

Some days I remember that Wang Fire is dead. And those are sad days.

Live Action Yue is Asami is Lourdes?

June 10, 2012 /

Yes. That is correct. She is redeeming herself.

And she’s on TNT’s Falling Skies as Lourdes! Season 2 of that show starts next week with a 2 hour premiere and after that I’ll be a guest on The Idiot Boxers breaking that show down in a nice, half-hour episode. 

Let me know in the comments if you’re interested in Falling Skies and I’ll try to cross-post the podcast when it goes up.

Wait so the girl who plays Asami played Princess Yue in that failure of a movie, The Last Airbender.

Fear not, Makorra’s, yumiko27 has it figured out:

My sister and I were just discussing how Mako is totally not Zuko 2.0, but Katara 2.0.
Which means, with all the previous Avatars’ track records, Makorra is endgame!

This is exactly how I felt discovering the shippers and crack shippers over the past week.

Many thanks to avatar-etiquette for taking the time to field this rumor.

Who is Amon? 

This question is most likely the second most bothersome issue to LoK fans (the first being, without even blinking, “What happened to Ursa?”)

Now, there have been quite a few theories floating around concerning his identity and the one presented here is the newest: Is Amon Lee from ATLA’s episode 207, Zuko Alone?

Many people had made the connection in “The Revelation” when Amon told his audience of his past. He and his non-bender parents lived a humble life on a farm; one day, a firebender had attacked his parents and burned his face, forcing him to conceal his scars behind his mask.

It should make sense, right? There are two pieces of compelling evidence, however, that will disprove this theory. They are concisely listed below:

  • Lee’s family was harassed by earthbender thugs, not a firebender.
  • The episode “Zuko Alone” had taken place in spring of 100 ASC, an entire 70 years before The Legend of Korra. If Lee were alive, he would be at least 80 years old.

Rendering this week’s podcast!

Here’s an interesting tidbit that hit during Episode 3’s podcast….it seems Zuko is alive.

We’re unsure if this is a spoiler or not, but with the unveiling of the Zuko statue in Episode 3 “The Revelation,” we figure we might as well mention it.

Fire Lord Zuko is still alive and well! Traveling the world!
