Yes! This is so exciting! Though I can't help but be a bit bummed because naming his son Iroh seems like something Zuko would definitely do.

Spoiler:  

And I have heard speculation going around based on this image

that Iroh is related to both Aang/Katara and Zuko/Mai. I think it would be really interesting to see and even if not, I think this theory is really cool.

He's a CABBAGEBENDER.

Not only that but he's also a PRICEBENDER! Watch the prices drop, so fast you'd swear it must be bending!

The Avatar might bend all four elements, but she can't bend prices! Watch as we bend prices down - 400, 300, 200, 99 YUANS! Your jaw'll drop just like the prices and you'll need a bloodbender to put it back!

(this should totally be advertising for Cabbage Corp.)

All these years of cabbage frustration must have lead to some weird kind of light chakra unblock.

They ARE opressing benders.

You completely managed to avoid the post that shows that LoK is not anti science.

What is that? What even is that? How is that a thing?
And plus, it's a show.

And the whole job of the Avatar is to promote peace and balance between everyone.

But seriously its a cartoon on Nick. If you over think it why watch it.

Thank you. Andross is a person who likes to ruin good things for no reason. I think he's just miserable in real life.

as for the pro-bourgeoisie slant, again, i don't really see it.

You do realize that the first series is where most of the things in LoK start, right?

Hell, Sokka even mentions the word "science" multiple times.

If so, it'd be on the DVD commentary. So you'd have to watch to find out.

Perhaps Zuko didn't have a son? (Note that I have no idea about this, as I haven't been paying attention to any supplementary material the trolls creators have mentioned.)

Epic. Although people would not appreciate the bloodbending joke as bloodbending is taboo and illegal.

Hi guys. Stepping in as an administrator here. Comments like this:

Is a no. Don't do that. If I see any personal attacks like this, I, or any other mod who comes across it, will issue an infraction. You're obviously allowed to disagree, but do so in a civil manner without resorting to things like this. If you have a problem with this, PM me and do not carry it on here in this thread otherwise that'll be considered worthy of a spam-fraction, too.

True enough.

It'd still be awesome though.

HAHA I have a strange desire now to see Amon sipping out of bendy straws during the finale.

Pics galore!

Spoiler:  

sometimes I really really love the korra fanbase <3

I don't know why they make videos of Amon telling jokes, but I like it.

hidden for the children! lol
