Flojean week day 3: mystery/noir

Yo, the Korra Book 1 Poster is complete. Little alterations in the end can always have a great effect on the final image.

“Don’t worry Wanda!”

“My risks are carefully calculated!”

“Then again- I do suck at math!”

Im to tired to actually make anything of this so here it is 

Sarah: Can we go to a haunted house this year?

Krolock: What's wrong with the one we live in?

Sarah: Wait, what??

Krolock: Goodnight.

Oh boy glad I found someone who agrees (9-10 years before me haha). Rewatched Korra last month and this just struck me so much - "I needed to suffer because otherwise I wouldn't be able to have empathy for people like Kuvira".... PLEASE. Did we watch the same show? Did we watch the same Korra have empathy for Tahno in Book 1 (who spent his whole screentime being a jerk to her and her friends) AND Tarrlok (the one who bloodbent and kidnapped her)????

Sure, she did need some character development in becoming more spiritual, less impulsive and think of others more (it's almost as if she was kept locked her entire life and everything was served to her at a silver platter so she never really learnt to take responsibility and guess what? The whole book 1 arc is pretty much about that - she grows so much in mostly beautiful and organic way)

Her torture in the end of B3 doesn't feel like genuine wish to explore traumatic experiences it almost feels like a device writers used just to break Korra for no reason other than stupid belief that misery = maturity. Her healing isn't complete (Zuko got 3 seasons with 20 eps each (after 3 years have passed in universe) and Korra (the main bloody character) got barely 14 eps), she never truly regains her fieriness and fierceness and by the end is basically subdued version of herself (Zuko on the other hand did get to tame his DESTRUCTIVE anger but was still deeply passionate and fierce person).

Also, while Zuko was given dignity in the scene of his scarring, Korra is shown in complete agony, camera lingers on her painful expressions and muscle movements to the point it stops feeling like the show is doing it to communicate the feeling of pain/despair and starts feeling like it's straight up exploitative...

bryankonietzko that’s great but would you care to address you felt the need to put korra through hell and high water for her to “learn compassion” as if she hasn’t been remarkably selfless since book 1?
