So was Earth's Mightiest Heroes as good as Spectacular Spider-Man? Because I heard the finale was disappointing, whereas the finale of SSM was loving great and the only problem was that it was the series finale instead of the season finale because of Disney fuckery.

I finished my rewatch of Spectacular Spider-Man, and I'm sad all over again that it didn't get a third season. Or a fourth. Or a fifth.

Apparently, Saban wanted to bring over Jetman first (pretty much a live-action riff on G-Force/Battle of the Planets, and widely regarded as one of the best seasons ever), but it took too long to work out the rights.

I'd recommend Korra to people who have an unabashed love for the world of Avatar and who don't have an irrational hatred of r-r-r-ROMANCE.

Korra was a good show that everyone had different ideas about how it could realize its amazing potential. Toxxupation hated it from day one because he thought the lead female character having breasts was meant to appeal to pedophiles.

The thread was talking about Young Justice earlier, and that show was really good, but Spectacular Spider-Man was an even better show by Greg Wiesman that got cancelled far before its time.

It was always gonna take a miracle for a live-action ATLA remake to be good, and I'm glad it fell apart now rather than later.

There was a time when I would have been incredibly excited to see Korra on Netflix. But, over the last five years, I've really soured on it. While I believe that a large part of it is that Bolin and Mako being terrible characters, it's also true that I simply cannot ignore its politics. This video series does a really good job of explaining things, though I disagree with part of their interpretation of Book 4. TLDR: Korra is peak liberalism.

galenanorth posted:The video and these comments put into words everything that seemed "off" about the first book. I have thought for eight goddamn years now that an amazing twist would have been that Amon absolutely was given energybending by the spirits, but he was supposed to use it to give everyone bending, and he did the opposite because of his own personal trauma. Arist posted:the two latter seasons of korra are still good and the first two were never good People liked the Avatar Wan story when it came out but the Book 2 video of that series makes a pretty damning case against it.

To put a finer point on it: the concept of the Four Nations is essential to the world of Avatar, and any story in that world that attempts to apply modern sociopolitical thought to such a world is doomed to unfortunate implications at best from the outset.

Arist posted:I don't know about that, but the reason the third and fourth seasons are good is because the writing is good and the characters work, not because they suddenly master the sociopolitical implications or whatever It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that Mako and Bolin are never good.

TwoPair posted:I mean in the end you can trace almost all of Korra's problems to the fact it was planned to be one season/miniseries (and you can tell because of how cleanly everything got wrapped up with Korra unlocking airbending and getting a boyfriend and Aang saying good job) but then Nick wanted more and so the rest of the series was kind of flying by the seat of its pants. So, a little bit of trivia: A:TLA was originally only picked up for 13 episodes, meaning that The Blue Spirit would have been the series finale if it didn't get renewed. The creators went in with a 3-season plan and they stuck to it. With Korra they had to fight tooth and nail to even get Book One (even though it was basically guaranteed to be a success) and they didn't want to disappoint their fanbase by returning only to leave an unfinished story. I get why they did it but I feel like the result kind of speaks for itself.
