    Does anyone know when the "Day of Black Sun" episode will air in UK?
    The last episode they showed was the "Nightmares and Daydreams" one, and that was months ago...
    I REALLY need to see what happens during the invasion lol, how could they just leave it there?

    I disagree metal is purified earth and lightening according to Iroh is purified fire and so it could be concluded that metal bending is the equivalent if you care to remember no firebender outside of the royal family has been shown having the ability to bend lightening.

    lightning isn't purified fire. lightning is a different form of fire. metal isn't a different form of earth. you can turn (some) earth into metal, you can't turn fire into lightning.

    I think what he meant to say was that in the series, Iroh does describe lightning as a "pure expression of firebending" so ,for purposes of the series, it -is- purified fire, though not in the context you would think as purifying earth or water.

    actually, I think lightning is a pure form of energy, and that is what basically firebending is, control of energy and electricity

    heat, lightning, electricity, fire

    Well, we've digressed from the point. I think the original observation was that there was no highly advanced move or technique or style for airbending that had been introduced in the series.

    Alright guys, this is important (to me). I need to find a way to get my video, currently saved as a .wmv file, into an "uncompressed version." I also have the project saved in Sony Vegas, as a Vegas file. It's not one of the options when you hit "Make Movie." Any ideas? This is for NYCC, I do not want to let them down.

    Fine ignore my post in the other thread.

    Well it depends on what you used to make it. Video editing software usually has some options for finishing the video. The finishing compresses it and makes it smaller for internet use and whatnot. They probably what the uncompressed version for sizing and whatnot.

    I'm kinda a nub at this stuff, if any can explain it better help me out

    Hi there. I don't know if this is the right place but since this is a question and I need an answer and Spyke (Who seems like a guy who knows a hell uva lot of Ty Lee) is around...
    So my question is Why did Ty Lee said "I know you" to Zuko in the beach (Sorry if this has been asked/answered before) What does it means? Because I don't think it's a shallow dialog just put in there because it sounds nice. What do you think?

    I may not be Spike but that's my 2 cents.

    let's look at the whole picture

    this is after Zuko uses the family portrait to fuel the fire

    Ty Lee: But it's a painting of your family.
    Zuko: You think I care‌
    Ty Lee: (voice over) I think you do.
    Zuko: You don't know me, so why don't you just mind your own business! (He turns away from her)
    Ty Lee: (Close shot of Ty Lee, who looks down and speaks softly) I know you. ---------------

    looks like it means that Ty Lee at one time felt that she didn't care about what was happening to her family, specially after deciding to go to the circus; but Ty Lee now realizes that even thought she is happier outside of her family, on her own, not on their shadow(specially her sisters). She cares about her family. Probably she "would know about Toph" too

    Typically files whcih are commpressed have a specific file format which in turn has a specific file extension, wmv and avi are compressed file formats however I don't know what the uncompressed file extensions however i will try and find one for you if I can I will then try and find a converter, one last thing what is your file size? (alot of free file coverters have a max size they will convert)
