There were several season 4 trailer, looks, and interview clips for season 4 so I figured we'd just have one.
Looks like Zelda wasn't just a tag-on character at the end of last season. I do wonder though, if she was that awesome of a fighter, where was she during the Red Lotus take over? Anyway, wow. That button on the episode. Why Korra?!
The episode was a catch up episode so there was a lot of exposition to get out of the way and not much meat. The villain... Kuvira. I'm just seeing a re-hash of the conquering lands villain from the original series. What is most interesting, and what I'm most excited to see is Korra's development in this season, especially with the way the last two episodes ended.
While I do think they missed out on the challenges of her rehabilitation physically, I think the fallout from it, the scar, with her emotional rehabilitation will be more interesting. So I can forgive the time jump. It does look from the trailer as if they'll be re-visiting those moments in flashbacks.
The villain at the moment seems lackluster and repetitive, but it's only episode one. If the last two seasons are any indication, they kind of slow burn into an exciting series. -- But the villain for book two was evil-incarnate. How do you top beating evil? Maybe they should have saved that for last? We'll see. I should trust Konietzko and DiMartino more.
What are your thoughts?
