    I would be shocked if Bolin didn't at least make an attempt at Bolin/Eska. And when that failed, making an attempt at Bolin/Desna.

    The Futurama dvd commentaries do a lot to explain the animation/voice acting process. They are a great listen to if you have the time.

    Simpsons too.

    FOr the Simpsons they devote each clip show to describing a portion of the production process in detail.

    I'm sure that this show takes a long time to make, so I'm not surprised that we're still waiting.

    I'd wager that the new book will air in 2014, when the first book did, from April to June.

    They've said that they're working on books 2 and 3 at the same time. Hopefully, we won't have to wait as long for the following books.

    My understanding is they didn't expect to get a Book 2. So it's no surprise it's taking so long, but I want more Avatar now! :(

    They are apparently working on B3 and B4 at the same time as B2, so the whole process is even longer.

    Did Last Airbender get released on blu-ray? I'm trying to find it but I'm not seeing any of the seasons.

    They'd have to reshoot the animation cels to do a bluray release, it's not super easy.
    Maybe they could just have one bluray disc with all three seasons on it in SD?

    That was actually kind of my next question, did they release a set with all three seasons for Last Airbender?

    It's so weird that air bender apparently did well enough to justify a movie but not well enough to justify good DVD releases

    Although I don't know how movie production works maybe nick didn't assume a lot of financial burden on it

    The odd thing was that S1 got a special edition release (the DVD case looked like a book), but S2 and S3 didn't. I think Nickelodeon just doesn't know what to do with Avatar. You'd think they would, but alas....

    Not at all; they just weren't HD/Blu-Ray.

    I think the special edition of the first season came out right before the movie, so it may have just been marketing.

    The first series wasn't created in HD, so the DVD sets are fine.

    The box sets of each Book are definitely worth owning.

    Wouldn't that only be the case if the original frames were drawn digitally at an sd resolution

  • Options

    I'm sure the series itself only exists in SD

    They'd probably either have to do a frame-by-frame touchup to release it in HD, or actually rescan the cels at a higher resolution

    Unless they did all that work in HD originally and just scaled it down and then threw away the original files, but who would do that right

    At least each complete season of Last Airbender on Amazon is $13 before taxes. Not too bad.

    The "special edition" season one of TLA was literally just the regular season one box set inside another box with an extra bonus disc in a separate sleeve.

    I heard at some point from a friend that the creators didn't want to keep going with the series. I have no sources or anything so it is a rumor.

    The soundtrack is really good.

    The order seems a little odd, so I might play around with it on subsequent listens.


    We finally Avatar music!

    Ragtime is going to make a triumphant return!

    It has been a very biographical avatar lately.

    The Legend of Korra is the third soundtrack I've purchased in a week. Pacific Rim and Remember Me being the others two.

    All three are amazing.

    Ragtime?

    Shameless music that'll drag your son, your daughter into the arms of a jungle animal instinct massteria.

    It's trouble.
