Another trailer, an official one from Nickelodeon, is now available. This one can be watched in HD and was far better quality.

AK2 just called to tell me that The Legend of Korra Book 3 will begin airing tonight at 7pm EDT. Nickelodeon will air the first three episodes tonight; then, next week there will be a break; and then the following week will see the airing of Episode 04. It's obvious why they would release a) so many episodes at once and b) at such a shitty time of the year television-wise. (The end of June? Seriously? ) Although really, I think it's kind of silly that they rushed it when the damage was already done. May as well have had us wait until the fall. Well, whatever! If you're a huge fan of Korra, then you're not going to want to miss the episodes -- catch 'em tonight or tomorrow and join in the discussions that are sure to follow.

So apparently there's a Korra video game coming out. Developed by motherfucking Platinum Games. As in the guys behind Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising, etc. Holy shit a potentially good tie-in.

There's also a 3DS game coming out for it that's a turn based game where you have to correctly position Korra and allies on the battlefield. |

Yeah, and both are supposed to release this fall and we haven't seen any gameplay footage at all. Plus, the 3DS one is being done by an Activision shovel-ware developer and the console one is being done by Platinum, which is currently working on Bayonetta 2, porting Bayonetta 1, and a new IP for Xbox One, so they're really busy.
I'd say treat it like the rest of the Legend of Korra - sounds good on paper but wait until the reviews trickle in before you get your hopes up too high. |

Totally should've couple my review of 1 and 2 up, then had a separate review for episode 3. Meh, this isn't much of a review anyway but rather some passing comments on how the series is progressing so far. I hope someone else watches these episodes soon so I can see what they think
Spoiler: show

Any idea where I might be able to find the episodes? One of my siblings cancelled the recording on the TV, and I was out the night they aired. I checked the Nickelodeon site but didn't see them.

I wanna double check but did Combustion Wkman say she was locked up for 17 years? Cause I think she did. And I'm also pretty sure Korra is 17.

It's still early, but thus far I'd say it's been pretty great. Though it's still not A:TLA level, it's been giving off a similar vibe lately and the bending battles so far are pretty sick.

As of Episode 04, I was on the fence and would've toppled over onto "No." As of Episode 05, I'd still be on the fence but would topple over onto "Yes." There are some things the season has done which reinforce my decision to approach the series as a fanfic with no actual bearing on Avatar: the Last Airbender canon. However, the vast majority of these things were already done in previous Korra seasons. (If you like, you can think of it as Jar Jar Binks showing up in Attack of the Clones.) Then there are other things the season has done which make me glad I'm checking it out.
Spoilers for the end of Book 2 of Korra (and technically soft spoilers for Book 3 as well but ehhh): Spoiler: show If you have the time to spare and are willing to risk the heartache, I would suggest watching Episode 01. If you despise it, then that gives you all the information you need to know. If you don't and if you think you want to watch a little more, then the episode you'll probably need to reach is, I guess, the latest one. At which point you should be able to tell for yourself whether you want to watch this series or not. For what it's worth, Korra will be airing two new episodes a week every Friday from here on out, I believe. We got 4 and 5 yesterday. Next week is 6 and 7. If they don't take a break, then the week after that would be 8 and 9. I think AK2 told me that he read that Nick's plan is to finish broadcasting the series by mid-August. Do with that information what you will.

So far I feel like Season 3 is all over the place. Not entirely happy about it overall.
Spoiler: show Sorry, but it's been fairly disappointing for me. I hope they somehow pick it up but that's how most of Korra has been going for me... I hope it gets better... |

Stealthy, you need to put your posts in spoilers or I am going to report you. Cut that shit out.
