    Ah, i can just picture it

    Are we going need another Watching Avatar as an Adult thread when the show airs? >.> I lol'd though. Somehow I see Korra hitting on Tenzin, and him being really uncomfortable about it. She'd do it to get under his skin, mostly.



    ***SPOILER***



    haha just imagined massive catfight between Korra and Pema. Despite her being a non bender, it seems like she could kick serious butt (even while preggers) if she wanted

    yep
    i doubt he is going to be 74 probably in his 40's or 50's he could be the youngest of there childern because we don't know how many kids they had or if he was the youngest or oldest child but i guess we will just have to wait to get answers.

    True, Aang and Katara could've had tons of kids, like twenty. Hmm, if all people born into the Air Nomads were airbenders, does that mean Aang and Katara's kid have a higher chance of being airbenders than waterbenders? Or am I just really bad at genetics? Maybe I should make a punnett square...

    And, edmasterchaos, your signature made me smile. I just bought Red Dead Redemption last week... And I cried like a small child during Toy Story 3!

    According to what I've learned in my genetics course it's hard to see various ratios of gene distributions when it comes to humans. This is because we usually dont have many children.
    soooo....it could be just chance that Tenzin was an airbender. Do we know yet whether or not his siblings are benders as well?....wait, does he even have siblings?

    sorry,, im going off on a tangent.

    BASICALLY: Interesting question. But I dont think airbending is dominant. Wikia says:
    "The Air Nomads detached themselves from worldly problems and concerns; and finding peace and freedom was the key to solve their flaws in life. Airbenders continually sought for spiritual enlightenment, and, as a result, all children born into the Air Nomads were benders."

    If Katara and Aang chose not to raise Tenzin in the nomad lifestyle, maybe he wouldnt have been an airbender? i think bending is achieved through some sort of spiritual awareness...but im not sure. grr...this is pretty mind boggling for me because i use to feel as though all benders were pretty spiritual...but now im not so sure after seeing Lengend of Korra. Those game benders dont really seem that spiritual at all :/

    Great, I've just confuddled myself.

    Ignore my foolish babblings

    Its possible the creators werent even thinking about the effects of genetics while making this show

    I'm thinking that maybe the kids weren't raised entirely in an Air Nomad lifestyle since their mom was a waterbender and one of their kids is one as well.

    I guess that just goes to prove the genes and lifestyle have nothing to do with it. It's all like the lottery, random and often someone wins money. (In this case what kind of bender is born.)

    I think its actually part blood part spiritual? Bryke said that once, and someone mentioned it in another thread.

    Yeah I heard Sokka did have the spritual side to be a waterbender, he just never tapped into it. Makes me wonder even if is not a bender how do they know for sure?

    I though I needed to put that somewhere, but there is a scene between korra and mako kissing, I wonder if this is a part from a bigger trailer and there is another thing about mako's hair, being different after each seasons or maybe episodes, I don't know for sure. It has to do with the relationship with Korra, I suppose how chaotic she can be and it gives some stress to mako. o.o'

    Maybe more then 2 episodes, 5, 10 ? Idk, but I think they are going to change his haircut just like they did with zuko in the first books.

    I was hoping for a better understanding of the kissing scene, it's not really helping to get the mood of this. Damn nickelodeon

    We just saw a cute scene in episode 3, with Mako and Korra sleeping head to head. Cute.

    I don't know why but I still believe that the kissing scene between Mako and Korra is going to be a good bye kiss.

    Zutara fans, I know you are happy that Zuko lives as well as Katara.

    My bet is that both will be dead by the end of Korra though.

    Someone(Dang it, it on the tip of my mind who) Put a list of episodes for season 1 on here. Zuko is confirmed, Katara is still a mystery.
