You take this 1 idea and focus the entire season around them with no breathing room to focus on characters or world building.

ATLA had a sense of adventure to it but the ending was set we just needed to see how they got there

hot dam this is succinct. It never dawned on me that one of Korra's weaknesses was that it was all over the goddamn place .

Okay let me explain what I meant.

Avatar by the 1st couple episodes told you how it will end. Aang needs to learn to bend the other 3 elements defeat the firelord and save the world. Most of the episodes are well episodic most getting an ending and the gang continues on. Korra introduces a villain that needs to be defeated by seasons end and then we get to the next season with yet another new villain.

It's not perfect (It is dam near close)
It just had such attention to detail and level of care that anything by comparison seems lazy

Understood. The character designs on Korra were on par with Avatar, but how it was executed in the animation made it seem a lesser quality. Plus, LOK's writing was all over the place from the start.

I honestly believe that just about everything bad about Korra is because of the futuristic setting
The worst parts of every season, except 3, came from something about the setting
Season 1, the villains shitty goals come back to wanting to take over the city for no real reason
Season 2, the villains goals revolve around disliking the future setting. Also, Wan was cool but ruined the idea of the avatar. Dark avatar was shite and so is the idea of wan.
Season 4, the spirit bullshit from season 3 comes back and makes it possible to build a mech in 1920s China somehow

Korra could have been good if they decided to make her grow up in any real way, like, just fucking learn airbending holy fuck
And if they decided to make more flashbacks than just the one

>mechs

this honestly pisses me the fuck off they had fucking TANKS,IRON CLAD SHIPS AND JET SKIS in the original I mean yeah the gigantic fucking drill but we have gigantic fucking mining saw right now (Bagger 288). I would have loved to see some plot where technology and the military do not need benders anymore with inventions like a WW2 tier tank,welding tools, or even regular airplanes

A drill tank isn’t any more far fetched as a regular tank, imo
It was basically a train with a drill
You could have replicated the drill in the 1800s

This is why I hated Amon he was pissed off a benders but the writers were to stupid to realize bending is becoming obsolete it went from you being set for life as a top of the line soldier or some other high up position to nothing more than a street performer who has a neat trick

Not trying to say I'm a fan of mech bullshit, but some of the inventions in ATLA was pretty stupid too. Like the tanks that could scale a mountain with a grappling hook, or caterpillar tanks that can crush stuff by squeezing it. It really wouldn't have surprised me if the Fire Nation one episode just rolled up in mechs.

I think the biggest problem is that it’s a giant leap to get from tanks and trains to a mech, which isn’t even possible today
Yeah the OS tanks were wonky, but they were at least believable

Well the B1 mechs kind of made sense, they just looked like building vehicles designed to be more like armor. They moved on treads which I can appreciate. I could see the Fire Nation making something like that even if it'd be dumb. But than the show introduced BIPEDAL mechs of all things and all little sense of believably they had is thrown out the window, and this isn't even mentioning Kuvira's mech that looks straight out of fucking Pacific Rim.

Benders would still be able to help in military situations. It is in itself a discipline and a way to keep the body healthy and active, and they can use the technology too. There would be no downside, and nonbenders in the Fire Nation military were not treated as less in ATLA.

The tl;dr version: Remember all those writers that worked on ATLA?

Yeah, like literally none of them worked on Korra. It was like George Lucas writing the prequels. Like Bryke they’re great at world building and rough character outlines, but none of them can write plot or dialogue for shit.

The idea of Wan is fine. "The First Avatar." The reality of Wan is where they fucked up.

Scheduling. They got jerked around by Nick so hard they had no idea how much time they actually had. First it was a miniseries at 7 episodes, then a 12 episode season. Then two. Then four. But wait the latter half of the last season won't air on TV.
You try writing a show with a cohesive narrative under those conditions.

Venture Bros didn't have that problem. They turn on a dime and land on their feet when problems come their way and they’ve had their fair share.
