Quote:That doesn't track. Aang showed no special resistance to bloodbending in the flashback. He only broke free by going into the Avatar State.Originally Posted by Vitality
Amon is Aangs son who was thought to be a non-bender...however, he is actually able to energybend...therefore, able to take away other peoples bending.
I would assume his relation to Avatar Aang is what makes his resistance to bloodbending possible...or simply that energy bending is the most power bending there is...allowing this resistance. -

Well the actress, Rinko Kikuchi, is 30ish but Asian women generally read young. They are probably shooting for young 20s, just out of the Academy.

Wow... I have to wonder if just one response means that moving out there I would double the number of Idaho CoH subscribers.

Quote:DMoA also has great theme music. I could listen to the opening theme all day!Originally Posted by Dr_Illuminatis
Really liking this one. Also The 5th episode is interesting because the title of the episode doesn't refer to the title character in this case.

Wait, wait, wait...
This won't feel right if the mechas aren't piloted by spirited 15-year olds! Only they can save the universe! -
I'm on board if Puffy Amiyumi does the theme song.

Well, let's see about tonight's premiere....
Tara is now a vampire... albiet a possibily ****tarded one, to use Pam's awesome lingo.
The Rev is back, and also a vampire. And he's hot for Jason.
Hooray for werewolf politics! Let's all eat a dead guy!
I'm guessing Eric's cell phone isn't as untraceable as he thought it was...
Did I mention Pam is awesome? -
I live down near Boise, so I can't speak much for what is upstate. Safari Pearl Comics is in Moscow, which is as close to Lewiston as I can find. If you're ever down in Boise, look up the Boise Comic Book Company, which is where I did all my shopping when I still collected comics.

Quote:Aang was physically 64-69 when he died. Chronologically, he was 164-169.Originally Posted by Oathbound
Aang was much older than 66.
He was 13 at the end of the original series. 70-75 years have passed between the two series. When he died, Korra was born, and she is now 19. -
Quote:Problem there is it's been stated by Word of God that Aang died younger than usual because he spent 100 years in the iceberg in a perpetual Avatar State. That took a big toll on his lifespan.Originally Posted by Mandu
New crazy theory with no basis what so ever. Amon is Aang. Most Avatars live long lives. As in the 200 year range. Aang died at age 66. My crazy theory is that he didn't really die but rather turned to the dark side like Vader. As was said, if you attempt to bend life energy you have the potential to become corrupted.
As a result his soul was torn asunder. So Korra isn't a true reincarnation of the avatar but rather a partial reincarnation minus the part of the spirit that was Aang. This is the reason she can't bend air. It is also the reason Amon can't be fully blood bent. He continuously exists in the avatar state which is what is keeping him alive, but also limiting him.
Eventually it will be discovered and Korra will lead him back to the light. At which point Aang will give up his life force to Korra and the avatar will become whole again and able to bend air.
And there's still no explanation as to why Tarrlok can bloodbend at any time except during a full moon. -
Thundercats: Wow, Tygra is being dumb today.
Young Justice: So, who called it that Aqualad was deep undercover? The "murder" of Artemis admittedly had me fooled at that point, until the reveal at the end.
Legend of Korra: Whoa, so awesome to see and hear grown-up Aang, Toph and Sokka. I think Sokka had the same voice actor, just doing a more mature version. I could hear some of Teen Sokka's voice in there.
Everything is coming to a head pretty fast, and the season finale is already upon us... or it will be in TWO WEEKS! Argh! I want it NOW! -
A childhood in the 80's spent in video arcades has prepared me for this movie. Get here now, November!

Who, in their right mind, would trust a guy like Joss Whedon to do a superhero movie? Let alone, a superhero movie with a strong female lead. Pff. Preposterous.
Wait, maybe I can do one with River Tam... hmmm... if one killed him with her brain? -
Joe and Anthony Russo, the directors and producers of NBC's geek-tastic sitcom Community, are in final talks to directs the Captain America sequel!

The last suit on the right is the Mark VII first seen in Avengers.

Something Amon and Tarrlok have in common, they both possess powers they shouldn't have.
Amon can take away bending permanently (though it remains to be seen just how permanent that is). Something previously established as a skill only the Avatar can do (and even Aang was unaware of it until the original finale).
Meanwhile, Tarrlok can bloodbend, something only the most powerful of waterbenders can do, and only during the full moon. Tarrlok did it outside that constraint. -
Yeah, after that thing in Florida, this was a dumb thing to do.

And to think Avengers has yet to open in some countries.

Quote:Actually, last night's episode made it pretty clear the general public is unaware of just how lethal DW is. The audience at the race seemed to think all the deaths were just special effects.Originally Posted by Dark One
Death sentence for jaywalking. Overkill...but effective. You'd think there'd be no crime whatsoever in that country.
It kinda reminds me of the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episode where Skinner and the rest of the teachers turn into cannibals with the students. -
Now I'm sad. Someone please tell me Running Man is streaming on Netflix. I need to watch it again now.

Quote:DW is Japan's only prison in the show's setting. So, yeah, all Japanese criminals get sent there, regardless of what their crimes are.Originally Posted by Dark One
Wow...Deadman Wonderland is a seriously messed up show. They must sentence every criminal on that planet to that prison, given the high rate of turnover of convicts.
-
Quote:I'm not so sure of that. I more believe that Amon and Tarrlok are working together. They could be brothers or something.Originally Posted by Mandu
Korra: Tarrlok is Amon. I'm now convinced that he created the Equalist movement so that he could make his current power play. Great episode.

Ridley Scott doing an Alien prequel? I'll be there next weekend.
-
Thundercats: I always get a kick out of Jeffery Combs voice work. Probably because I'm a big DS9 fan.
Young Justice: Good episode. Fun to see Impulse introduced.
Legend of Korra: Wow, now this was a great episode! Tarlokk has some big bad revelations!
