Avatar Season 3 premieres Sep 21
 

Proof

No, it's not a trick. It's going down in aprox 56 days.

Stay tuned to this thread for updates on the season 3 panel that takes place at San Diego Comic Con on Saturday.

(56 days. 56 days. 56 days... What? I'm not obsessed.)

Also, spoilerific recap of where we last left the Gaang here.

The Wandering God

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Really, I don't think there's much more to say.


This is going to be the last season, right?

Interview
RM (interviewer): I'm not supposed to talk about Season Three but do you have any thoughts as to what the future of Avatar might be other than the live action movie that they're talking about, which will be a little off on its own?

MDD (Michael Dante DiMartino): Well, we'll be pretty involved with that, so that'll keep us very busy the next few years.

RM: So any future for the cartoon?

MDD: Well, we don't know yet. We've got some ideas.

BK(Bryan Konietzko): We've always got tricks up our sleeves.

RM: Well I know shows often continue on into OAVs and movie events...that sorta thing.

MDD: We love the avatar universe so we want to keep telling stories in it if we have the outlet for it. We're just not interested in watering this storyline down, or filling it...keeping it dragging on. We try to make it as potent as we can. That's our big priority. Still, we'll do some other things. (laughter) We're not retiring.

RM: Can you talk at all about what you're thinking of in the future?

BOTH: (Laughter) Hush hush...really secret...

So, it's still up in the air. But the original idea was to take place in a three season (book) arc.

The Wandering God

Finishing in the third season as always planned you say? That sounds extremely good, it's always good when a series keeps a succinct and determined pace and endpoint, rather than dragging it out or worse killing it early.

As far as OVAs go, I would love to see an Iroh from childhood to the aftermath of the siege of Ba Sing Se where he lost his son and Ozai subsequently took power. Assuming such isn't covered during season 3, which considering how the last season ended isn't unlikely.

Between this and the reboot news I'm going to..Oh I don't know.

Never be sad. At all. For the rest of my life.

I hope I understand this correctly. That they are saying even if the avatar story arc ends, which it will when the time calls for it, then they will still make things set in that world.

Who knows, maybe we will even get a more violent avatar.

I'm going to go convince them to hand Avatar over to the writing staff of Naruto and turn Reboot into a Jack Thompson-produced morality tale on how video games inevitably turn children into cold-blooded murderers, just to see if I can make you actually cry tears of blood.

I could easily make a self-defense case if you did that after I murderize you...

Yess........yeesssss...

Okay thats it Fifthfiend.

You.
are.
my.
GOD!

ALL HAIL OVERLORD FIFTHFIEND; TREMBLE BEFORE HIS FURY AND BOW TO HIS MIGHT!!!

EDIt: To stay on-topic, I've only seen a few bits of Avatar but it doesn't look have bad. Probably watch the third series too.

Oh please, let's not derail this thread into a Fifthfiend is a fucking god orgy. He already gets one of those once every three months.
