    It might have something to do with lava or firebending. But I really think the boiling rock is going to Mai once she finds out what the letter from Zuko says!

    Let's take a look at it from a symbolic perspective. Rock is the chief tool of Earth benders. Toph and Bumi are Earth bender. Boiling is a process used in cooking one's meal. Therefore:

    BR part 1: They cook Toph!

    BR part 2: They cook Bumi!

    Yes, that is what will happen. An hour of cannibalistic cooking goodness !

    I mentioned this in another but very obscure thread. Technically, a comet, such as Sozin's Comet, is a boiling rock. A comet consists of ice and other debris and its tail is material "boiled" off of it by solar energy.



    I think you might be right

    that's like giving into the demands of a kidnapper, it's an admission of failure, it's like cancelling a sporting event because of a betting scam that went on, you're admitted that the bad guys won, so no, they won't stop because of illegal downloads.

    You know what? Nick needs to figure out what they are doing wrong-namely, airing it in specific countries before it airs in another major country.

    i assure you nick does not lose any money from pirating, i'd think about 100 people out of the thousands that pirated it had nielsens in their homes, so nick (and more importantly the advertisers who fund it) won't notice any ratings droppings.

    It isn't anywhere near the amount you think it is, the only way they earn money is from sells and the amount of people WITH a rating device (can't remember the name sorry) on there TV, if you don't have tracking device (most of whom for Nick are 12 or less so aren't likely to download) then the only way they are going to get money is from you buying the DVDs which there is a level people download most of whom aren't going to buy it anyway.

    i highly doubt that ratings are low because every fan in bulgaria is obsessed enough to watch it online! ratings are low because bulgarians don't watch the show, that's all. besides i'd say about 99% of people who watch it online also watch it on TV.
