pharkwar  Were there police dirigibles there as well? I thought all the flames were the destroyed police boats that we saw in the water around the stadium earlier in the episode.

I hope "The Boy in the Iceberg" play is still popular in this world. I could totally see Toph just screaming at people and saying, "there, I got a pretty good look at yas"

Murc I am always bothered by that trope as well. My fan waving of it for ATLA is that they live in a fairly small, pre-modern world so it's possible that very few people have relationships before their first marriage. Yue was betrothed at 16, for instance, and Katara only met multiple prospects like Haru and Jet…

I actually think those were the police boats, not dirigibles. We saw the boats in the water surrounding the arena earlier in the ep.

Murc, you have just made me legitimately sad.

I love how guns cannot be used on Nickelodeon, but terrifying images of people getting electrocuted is a-okay.

Yeah, she hosed a girl in last week's episode. I didn't think about it that way.

LoveWaffle But the machinist was basically paying for his and his sons freedom by building those weapons for the FN, so in his mind he wasn't against the Avatar. Sato, on the other hand, is the richest person in the city, so I doubt Amon has any leverage over him. If Sato is helping Amon it would have to be because he…

Isn't this what happened in Moneyball? That's why it was nominated for Best Picture, right?

It's possible, but I don't understand why he would sponsor the Fire Ferrets and/or let his daughter date Mako. Is it an act so people don't suspect him? Is he the greatest actor of all time?

Lincoln: The Last Airbender coming to a theatre near you Summer 2013

Wikipedia has "The Aftermath" airing next week. I hope it's right.

Asami: Daddy, you're breaking my heart. You're going down a path I cannot follow.

He can be the anti-Knope!

Not only is she crazy strong, but she's also believably strong. She keeps doing stuff that maybe most humans could not actually do, but I find her as believable in her strength as any random action dude who does the same stuff. It also is nice that the show pays so much attention to the physics of motion, so that a…
