The First 80 Seconds of the New Airbender Series Legend of Korra

For the unaware, Avatar: The Last Airbender is a legitimately great show. And when it was announced that a new series called Avatar: The Legend of Korra would be a direct sequel to the original, there was (quite understandably) a lot of excitement. Though for fans, anything to get the sour taste of the live action adaptation out of their mouths would have been welcome. Now, the first 80 seconds of the first episode have been leaked online.

New Airbender TV Spot: Appa’s Creepy Face

Avatar: The Last Airbender (A. K. A. the real Avatar) is nearly upon us, and so we’re down to the final few TV spots to pour over. Unnervingly, we haven’t seen much character dialogue in the released footage, leaving many fans still in suspense over the quality of the acting in the movie.

Even I, who have been pretty relaxed in the knowledge that if the movie is awful, it will still be pretty, and I can just go home and watch all four Sozin’s Comet episodes to make myself feel better, am getting a little worried.

The Other Avatar: Why You Should Care About The Last Airbender

Aang fans, we give you: the Superbowl spot for The Last Airbender. Go ahead. Take a moment. We needed one too. We cannot express our feelings about this in this shoddy medium of language and electrons. We watched it here at a table full of other interns who had no idea what’s going on, and couldn’t keep the big doofy grin off our face. We don’t want to talk about whether it will be good or not, we just want to appreciate this.

So in lieu of trying to shoehorn overused terms like “awesome,” “incredible,” or “speechless” into some run on sentences, we will use the rest of this post to try and explain to people who have not watched Nickelodeon‘s Avatar: The Last Airbender why they should stop associating “avatar” with ten-foot-tall people with arrows and bows, and start associating it with a twelve-year old monk with arrow tattoos.
