~/Coolio Prime\~ Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I'm aware of that, but from the brief interaction Korra had with that guy giving the speech, the whole anti-bending movement seems to be taking a jab at the idea of rejecting authority and the privileged, which is kind of a disappointing concept if it's left as is.

Fusion X. Denver Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 [spoiler=Episode 3] Hot damn, that was good. I like Mako more than I did before, so he's not just an angsty teen. And I just realized it's Stephen Blum voicing Amon. Love that guy.[/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grunt Issun Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 One odd thing I've noticed, something I noticed since episode one, but became even more apparent now, is that a few of the characters have REALLY visible irises. Korra and Bolin especially, have extremely bright Blue and Green eyes, respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're broken down by nation/bending. (Most) Water Tribe people have blue eyes (few exceptions being the Foggy Swamp Tribe and Hama) (Most) Fire Nation people have golden eyes (few exceptions being Ty Lee) (Most) Earth Kingdom people have green eyes.

Most water benders (in the original series) also had Inuit features too, as does Korra and her parents. Their clothing though probably fits the trope better. The only time they don't is in the third season from The Headband until The Day of Black Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Earthbenders still had green eyes. New episode: I thought some of the dialogue felt a little forced/unnatural. My otp is being canon-shipped, excellent. Mako is batman.

Vairocana Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Episode 4 was leaked. No spoilers, but [i]oh my god fancy Mako just take me now[/i].

He explicitly states why he does it [spoiler=]because if he stopped her bending now, she would become a martyr, uniting everyone to her cause. He wants to destroy her to the point where no one supports her as Avatar first, so her "death" will have no meaning.[/spoiler] Little details like that are why I love Mike and Bryan.

Fusion X. Denver Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Ah. Right. I missed that small detail, was watching this in a rush before going out to work. So this is a series you need to watch with 100% attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made it pretty clear during his big villain speech. And yea, Amon is badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
