01:58Oh
02:06High stakes have true but it's but it's frequently derided frequently derided as boring as
02:13boring because things because it's contemporary and
02:16Contemporary and things don't blow up and things don't blow up blow up
02:21And that was the problem and that was the problem for the for a lot of people for a lot of people for a lot
02:26of people a lot of people in regards to this season in regards to this season season the first half the first half has a
02:34Lot of things has a lot of interesting things, but when they get
02:39Interesting things but one thing it didn't have
02:44Have was a lot of bent was a lot of bending fights
02:48One thing it didn't have was a lot of bending fights post beginnings post
02:53Post
02:55Beginnings beginnings the season is nothing but bending fights
03:00Bent is nothing but bending fights hell at the very end at the at the very end. They stop bending entirely
03:08Entirely and start and start shooting Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z lasers
03:15From their chests
03:17At the very end they stop bending entirely and start shooting Dragon Ball Z laser Dragon Ball Z lasers for their chests
03:29The stakes keep rising and they don't stop rising
03:31They won't stop rising the stakes keep rising right into the stratosphere where there where the air is thin and they fucking suffocate
03:41It's the stakes the stakes get so fucking high
03:46High like next see
03:48The stakes get so fucking high and they don't need to be this high all the time
03:58All the time just you had a good idea
04:01You had a really good idea to start with to start with but because it was but because it was a quieter
04:09quieter and more meditative and more meditative idea
04:12Medit but because it was a quieter and more meditative idea dia about an issue issue the avatar couldn't just punch
04:21Punch they just couldn't just punch really hard
04:27They just threw it away
04:28Threw it away core isn't like Cora's entire arc Cora's entire arc is about learning learning. She can't just
04:36Punch every problem away every problem away, but the story
04:41happens with her punching her problems away
04:45Ah
05:03It's this idea that they have to one it's this idea that they have to one up it that they have to keep
05:10Keep one upping themselves
05:13One upping themselves avatar ended with a ended with a big with a big explosive bending fight
05:20Bending fight bending fight two of them actually
05:24Then actually but those fights were but those two of them actually actually no three
05:30three of them actually
05:31but all of them were basic but but those fights were the were the cap were the capstone of a with a capstone of a
05:39Capstone of a multi-season long of a multi-season long character arc
05:45Long character arc arc for everyone in for everyone
05:50Everyone involved in one case. It's just fucking tragic hell in one one case. It's just fucking tragic
05:58Tragic Cora tries to end end on an even bigger fight on an even bigger fuck bigger fight
06:05Fight but the person she's fighting cheese, but the person she's fighting has has their motivate has their motivation and character
06:13character change more freak more
06:24More frequently than Sylvanas Windrunner under the pen of a sexual predator
06:29Post endgame problem. Well, our heroes have already saved the universe
06:32Post endgame problem. Well, our heroes have already saved the universe. How about we save the multiverse? What are you gonna do after that?
06:37Well, I was supposed to I was supposed to think that far
06:54Cora tries to end on an even bigger fight Cora like Cora tries to end on an even bigger fight
07:00But the person she's fighting has their motivation and character change more frequently than Sylvanas Windrunner under the pen of a sexual predator
07:11Furthermore we've now reached the point of we've now reached the point reached the point the point of a big of a it's like of
07:19a big colossus
07:20stomping around
07:22Stomping around stomping around a city stomping around a city. What are you gonna do?
07:27What are you going to do next next bright break make it bigger make the
07:33Colossus bigger. Oh wait
07:36Giant robot. Oh wait. Oh
07:40wait
07:43Make the giant Colossus bigger make its
07:47Make its titty make its titty. It's like make its titty cannon. It's like
07:52Make its make its spirit
07:55Laser beam even bigger bigger. Oh wait, that's exactly what you do
08:03If a certain streamer whines about you in defense of Cora, I'll be laughing yeah
08:08What are you going to do next break make the Colossus even bigger make its spirit laser beam even bigger oh wait
08:18Wait
08:20You know for all of for all of seasons for all of for all of season ones flaws
08:26Flaws one thing I commend one thing. I commend them. I commend it on on still even in the face
08:33face of a terrible of a terrible ending terrible ending is the fact that is the fact that this this was supposed to be the
08:42To be the only season and they went okay
08:46Okay, let's let's let's do a film noir thing thing a kind of kind of detective
08:52kind of detect a kind of detective crossed with
08:59Political sabotage crossed with
09:03Occupy walls a kind of detective kind of detective show detective show crossed with cross with political sabotage. It was good
09:12It
09:15Was a it was a risk going so low stakes so low going so low stakes sure
09:21They take over Republic City take over Republic. Sure. They fight for Republic City
09:28Republic City, but Republic City, but that's one city, but that's one city
09:37And they still fight and they still fight with
09:40Guerrilla tactics
09:51But that's one city and they still fight with guerrilla tactic guerrilla tactics
09:57Lowering the stakes like that
10:00Like that lets the audience lets the audience come down come down from the adrenaline high from the adrenaline
10:06Adrenaline high if they kept the entire story the entire story this way this way it
10:13It would have been real
10:16It would have based it would have it would have been really healthy long term
10:21Long term then in the next season next season. They they go back up. They go back up to where they were
10:28Were
10:32We're at the end of avatar at the end of the last airbender airbender and then go even bigger
10:38And then go even bigger for no reason
10:48Again like season 1 again like season 1
10:52Season 1 season 1 you had a really cool thing going going here
10:58Why did you go back? Why did you not carry? Why did you not follow through?
11:06Every everything like every route route you could have taken you could have taken with Unalaq
11:14and
11:15with Unalaq and the Civil War and the civil
11:19Every route you could have taken with Unalaq in the Civil War and you drew in a and you drew in the worst
11:26Possible possible and you drew in the worst possible route in a fucking crayon
11:39Put the
11:40How about time travel new avatar for new avatar first avatar team up team up?
11:46No, don't you do that you put that dodgeball down
11:51And you drew and you drew in the worst possible route in a fucking crayon
11:57you
12:09Here's a smaller level a smaller scale question
12:13Question why should I care at this point at this point?
12:18Why should I care about should I care about anything about anything you set up?
12:27You know
12:31If I could change it to World of Warcraft for a minute
12:36Minute hang on. Hang on. I'm going somewhere with this
12:43In the present day in the present day
12:45Wow is actually doing is actually doing a lot of a lot of interesting things with things with a lot of its characters
12:52with a lot of its characters
12:57Characters, but it's very difficult to get it's very difficult to get excited about any of them about any about any of them
13:05Because because it's already been established
13:10It's already been established that no matter no matter what interesting thing interesting thing
13:16They do with a character they do with a character they can and will go back on it
13:22Go back go back on it and retcon everything in a heartbeat
13:27Heartbeat
13:29Heartbeat with the way that with the way they utterly rewrote rewrote sylvanas sylvanas over to expansions
13:39Mansions betraying the care betraying the character they had been setting up up
13:47To that point to that point
13:51To that point the trust is gone the trust is gone
13:56How am I supposed to get excited?
14:00About your cool new about your cool new about your cool new
14:05Arathi lady when I know for a fact for a for a fact she has an equal chance of equal chance of getting
14:16The villain batted next
14:18next expansion
14:20That's how I fit that's how I feel about Cora about Cora after two expansions of
14:26Two expansions after two seasons of this you set up something cool
14:32Cool you set up interesting characters
14:36Characters and then and then right at the moment at the moment you have to pay it off
14:43Pay it off pay it off you snap around you retcon everything
14:48Everything and it turns out and it turns out they were a look they were a liar the entire time
15:00What reason what reason does anyone have to trust you at that point?
15:08You'll do it again
15:10You'll do it again, and we know you'll do it again
15:18The
15:21Next two villains they do the same thing the same thing
15:25Every interesting thread every interesting thread set up with either of them
15:30Set up with them with them is abandoned in favor in favor of the least interesting
15:38in favor of the least interesting
15:43In favor of the most boring
15:46Ideas possible possible all in the name all in the all in the name of not having to make
15:53Not all in the name of the characters not having to think about things too much
16:15Cook
16:45You
17:15You
17:46At this point it's just
17:50Shit or get off the posh
17:52Shit or get off the pot either stop making such pull like after stuff either stop making political stories
17:59if you're just gonna fucking
18:01political stories if you're going to fucking
18:03Oh
18:17Ren doodled Miva while beginnings was going on
18:34You is it okay if I show the stream run
18:47Sure look here
19:03You
19:14It's really doodly hey, I like it
19:33You
19:43Either stop making political stories if you're going to just shown in your way out of them
19:52Out of them or
19:54Go ahead and make go ahead and make a political story, but make a political story
19:59story, but stop being a but stop being such a
20:02Goddamn teenager about it
20:11My wavy sleeves are now for intimidation yeah
20:31You
20:48All right, let's carry on
20:52Must close the spirit portal before harmonic convergence, which is only weeks away
20:57Meanwhile
20:59In my mind's eye I see this very fluid movement to Niva's clothes that I can't portray properly yet
21:05It comes across
21:07and yeah, I like it given that Niva 10 given that Niva connects more with airbending like
21:13No doubt that dress is billowing in the wind a lot
21:16Superstar and saved Asami's company Mako is the only one who suspects that Beric is up to no good, but can he prove it?
21:33Gotcha
21:46You Nora there you are come on everyone's waiting
21:51Were you playing with someone? Oh just some
21:54imaginary friends
22:02Stop telling lies. It's true. I once beat an earthbender in a rock-throwing contest
22:08I have the trophy to prove it all right who's ready for an exciting tour of the Eastern air temple
22:13You've got a lot to see today including ancient statues ancient gardens and the meditation hall used by ancient
22:21airbenders yay old things
22:34And how did you know where to find us
22:37Tenzin's itinerary we went over it like a hundred times before we left Republic City
22:41See this is why schedules are important
22:44It's so great to see you all again. It's great to see you too, but why are you training at the South Pole?
22:51Wait you don't know about the Civil War what no we've been out of touch with the outside world since we started our vacation
22:59Tenzin's idea what happened so much. I don't know where to start. Just tell us everything
23:05everything
23:07Okay, I
23:09Opened a spirit portal at the South Pole
23:11But then Unala turned out to be a bad guy and wanted to take control of the south so I sort of started a civil
23:15War but when I went to find some help
23:17I was attacked by my cousins and then by a giant dark spirit
23:20And then I forgot who I was and then I met the first avatar
23:23And then I realized I shouldn't have opened the portal in the first place and now I need to close it again. I
23:29Knew this would happen
23:32So avatar one
23:34Imprisoned this dark spirit Vaatu in the spirit world yes, and now I think my uncle is trying to free him
23:41I knew Unala was hungry for power, but never realized how far he would go to get it. This is all my fault
23:47No, don't blame yourself. This is Unala doing now. We must focus on setting things right before he can do any more damage
23:55Thank you, so you need to close the southern portal
24:00But if Unala's army controls the south how are we going to get to it?
24:04I thought about that my best chance to close the portal is from the inside. I have to enter the spirit world a
24:11Journey to the spirit world all my years of spiritual training have prepared me for this moment. I
24:18Will help you today?
24:20We enter the spirit world
24:26Father what are we doing here?
24:28You're here to straighten out the mess you caused when you failed to capture the avatar
24:32I told you it wasn't our fault. You're right. It was my fault for trusting you
24:38Harmonic convergence is almost upon us. This is my opportunity to change the world
24:44We'll make it up to you father
24:46good
24:47Because I'll need your help to open the northern portal I
24:51Thought only the avatar could do it. I believe there is another way
25:03This way
25:08There it is the northern portal
25:23Cat okay, that's lunch everyone
25:30Hello anyone
25:32Knock-knock still up here
25:38Assami hey, what are you doing here?
25:41Varric invited me to watch some of the filming
25:43Are you filming right now right now? Nope? We're uh we're at lunch
25:49Assami there you are is bowling around up here good. I've got something to tell you both
25:55I
25:58Gotta stop doing my own stunts. I found out who's been stealing from future industries
26:04Varric
26:05What no he attacked his own ship? Yes, it was a ploy
26:11He wants Republic City to go to war and he wants control of the businesses that stand to profit the most from it
26:16He already had all the shipping all he needed was future industries Varric helped save future industries
26:23He's my business partner now not an evil mastermind
26:26Mako you seem stressed. I am stressed see this is why I had to move out you guys aren't living together anymore
26:34Nope, it was time for this Eagle Hawk to spread his wings and fly
26:39Sounds like you've had a pretty busy week. Maybe you just need to relax
26:44Wait a minute are you two? Oh, you're dating again. What dating?
26:51No, that's crazy. Korra just left a week ago
26:55Guys, listen to me
26:57Varric is up to no good and I have proof the detonators he uses in his movers are
27:02Exactly like the one I found at the cultural center attack and those explosions were exactly like the ones the captain reported when Assami's shipment was hijacked
27:10Don't you see anyone could have gotten their hands on one of those detonators? Yeah, let it go Mako. Let it go
27:17No, I'm not going to let it go
27:25Varric's been looking for you
27:31You're lucky this temple is the most spiritual of all the air temples
27:35By this very garden is where my father met Guru Pateek Wow
27:40Spirit world here we come
28:00Are you in the spirit world?
28:03Are you in the spirit world I would be if Milo could ring his bell at the appropriate intervals
28:13Let's try something else. I thought your bell ringing was just fine
28:18I
28:27Just stop for a minute like the water tribe twins like Desna Eska and Desna
28:34So fucking like
28:36There's so fucking creepy
28:41Yeah, I haven't really like I've written down like a few notes but like
28:46It's still fucking boggles the mind that Eska drags Desna around everywhere and he doesn't even say anything
28:53He's just like a colossal doormat. Wait a minute
29:10Please
29:16Hmm
29:33Kaya this is too much smoke. You set it up wrong. This isn't going to work. I'm sorry. I did what you told me
29:40Well the moments ruined
29:46We could have tried a little longer
29:59Come back furry foot. Hey Jinora, what are you chasing? Nothing?
30:06I
30:17Am focusing no talking feel the energy of the universe
30:22Okay, I feel it Cora. Really? I'm trying to concentrate here. I don't think this location is going to work either
30:29What's going on with you first? You're blaming me low then Kaya now me. Well, nothing is feeling right to me
30:35I don't want to rush your feelings, but we're kind of in a hurry. How did you first get into the spirit world?
30:40Let's try that
30:42well
30:44Actually, I've never been into the spirit world
30:53You've never been into the spirit world, but you used to spend days in the temple meditating trying to get in
31:01It never happened it's my greatest shortcoming as an airbender spiritual leader and son of Aang
31:10Welcome to the I
31:11Disappoint dad club if you've never been to the spirit world, how are you planning to get Cora into it?
31:16I've spent years studying the techniques and theories of ancient spiritual leaders now that the Avatar needs me
31:22It must be my time Tenzin harmonic convergence is almost here if Vaatu escapes from the spirit world
31:28You have to trust me. I can help you
31:32There might be another way
31:35Jinora, is there something you want to tell Cora?
31:37Jinora, she is too young and untrained to have any knowledge about spiritual matters
31:43Actually, I think I do know where Cora needs to go to get into the spirit world
31:47And how would you know that my spirit friends showed me?
31:52It's okay. You can show yourselves
31:54Oh
32:00How did you do that Jinora
32:06Okay
32:24You
32:54You
33:24You
33:54You
34:24You
34:43I'm just nuking some chili over one second
34:54You
35:24You
35:54You
36:24You
36:54You
37:24Hmm
37:31Okay
37:54I
38:01Knew it looks like she does know something about spiritual matters
38:13How long have you been able to do this, I don't know I guess I've always kind of had a connection with spirits I
38:21Think this one likes me
38:23Are they here to help? I think they want you to go down there
38:27I don't know the spiritual energy is historically strongest near the temple
38:32No offense, but I'm guessing the spirits have actually been to the spirit world
38:36So I'm gonna follow them if we need to go to the Tenzin world. We'll call you
38:40You
38:45Father haven't the spirits had 10,000 years to open this portal if they could not succeed
38:50What makes you think we will by entering the spirit world through the portal we bring with us something the spirits never had
38:57our bending
39:06Join me together we can open this portal
39:10Oh
39:25Leave him keep bending
39:30He needs a healer at once this is more important Oh
39:34Oh, oh man now now I feel bad for being mean
39:53Terrible player. Thanks for following
39:59Leave him keep bending
40:03He needs a healer at once this is more important
40:13I'm taking him back
40:33I
40:58Hear you've got some ideas you want to tell me about them
41:03Go ahead torture me all you want. I'm not gonna talk torture. The only thing I want to torture is this pesky foot fungus
41:17The burning means it's working I
41:21Heard you've been investigating the recent attacks on my ships
41:25And I think you know that I know that you know, you know
41:30Know what?
41:32That the world is a dangerous place and that's exactly why I want to offer you a job on my security force
41:39I have a job. We need you me Asami Bolin. We're all on the same team here
41:45We want you to join us. You wouldn't want anything to happen to Asami
41:49Would you I mean I heard you and her were kind of a item again, or what about your brother?
41:55What are you saying? I'm saying I want your help to protect them without you
42:01Who knows what could happen?
42:04Thanks for your concern
42:06But the answer is no
42:18You are just so cute I'm gonna name you boom June it's short for boobie jr. Don't you think he looks like me?
42:26The resemblance is uncanny. I
42:30Think dad's mad at me
42:31Your father's not mad his pride's just a little bruised since he isn't able to see spirits like you you have a natural gift
42:39That's pretty lucky
42:40You're the lucky one. You actually got to meet the first avatar
42:44I know about a lot of avatars, but I don't know anything about him. Is it even a him or is it her?
42:50It's a him avatar one
42:53He was amazing. I
42:55Saw how he became the first avatar by fusing with Rava the spirit of light the avatars part spirit
43:02Of course just like the statue what statue when we were at the southern air temple
43:09I was drawn to this old carving. I couldn't figure out what it was until now
43:13It was the first avatar. When did this happen? It was on the solstice. That's the day I opened a southern portal
43:25Are
43:28You sure these spirits are leading us to the right place, of course, I just boomed you with my life
43:41Look
43:43There are carvings on them this is an ancient airbender meditation circle
43:50Oh
43:52There's a lot of spiritual energy in this place
43:56It feels really strange. We'll have to perform a spiritual cleansing ceremony. What are you talking about?
44:03Dad taught it to me this
44:11Wait a second, I think this is where like yang Chen was doing something with her sister
44:20You
44:39Yeah, see right here like it feels like a giant is about to grab me or let you go
44:44I hand either opens or closes, but I can't do either of those twice in a row
44:49I
45:04Like Jetsun
45:09Where are these pics from some I don't know some some game I think
45:19Unfortunately Jetsun died shortly after this
45:35Look
45:38There are carvings on them this is an ancient airbender meditation circle
45:45There's a lot of spiritual energy in this place
45:48It feels really strange. We'll have to perform a spiritual cleansing ceremony. What are you talking about?
45:55Dad taught it to me. This site has been neglected
46:14You
46:44You
47:14You
47:44You
