Oh wow, I had completely forgotten about the Lake Laogai leak. Was that really five years ago? I remember watching it with my younger brother and I schrunched up by our small computer screen, trying to tell what was going on.
...I think I also watched a leaked version of the Puppetmaster in our basement on the Wii Halloween night. Spooky stuff.
Anyway, all I've seen so far is the opening and some of the still images, and that is hardly the same as watching a whole leaked episode. This was just the right amount of hype that we needed.

Day of Black Sun was leaked too...
They really need to do something about their security.

I saw nothing and thus cannot comment or discuss along with those who saw it. OTOH it's good news that the series is alive and well in the eternal battle between piraters and producers. That's always a good sign. 2013 cannot come soon enough.  |

Huh, now that one I remember watching completely unspoiled. The giant Fire Nation airships coming out of NOWHERE ranks as pretty much the most epic surprise of the Season for me.
DON'T YOU EVEN JOKE ABOUT THAT MISTER. Lalalalala, Fall 2012, fall 2012...

/get ready for a rant
Ha maybe I'm a bad person but whenever there's a leaked episode aka fionna and cake from adventure time and targets(?) from young justice were leaked online and I never bothered watching it on tv. Why? cause I already saw it there was no need to watch it again even if the quality is a little better I still know what happened. That's why I feel like ratings would go down(also in regard to the fionna and cake that ep was highly anticipated and fan driven anyways which is why it got high ratings I assume. In regards to the YJ ep it was leaked on the cartoon network site so the quality was actually pretty top notch imho). That's just how I am with some things. Avatar though I would rewatch P: And even when atla was running I never ever remembered an episode being leaked so I guess yay me P:. I feel like a whole leaked episode would equal mass excitement and then when it finally comes we're just like oh um yay sawwwww itttt (aka excitement down), but you know i'll just watch it again just cause (unless you're a die hard fan. And no offense but I keep getting this feeling that most people on tumblr/youtube are those occasional/yeah it's cool fans. I feel like real fans would respect what Bryke want aka not having these leaks get out of hand which it already has imho). and then waiting one more week for a genuinely new episode...
Also I REALLY DO NOT WANT THIS GUY TO UPLOAD the whole gosh darn 1st episode of Korra.... whether it's pilot or not. Teasers are good yes but I don't want to spoil myself with the whole thing and then still have to wait for an official release. I'm getting really fed up with this guy's persistence. I mean if we finally see the first episode and then it's totally different from what this guy has I won't mind seeing it but as for now I just dont want any part of it esp. if it's the whole gosh darn thing....
He even said on his youtube account:
"Ummm, Viacom has got my IP address on watch,… everything that I upload that is related to legend of korra get’s blocked or deleted immediately.Tumblr has deleted the first preview clip and I’m sure that very soon they’ll delete the episode picture. Megaupload deletes it instantly and so does Mediafire. I’ve tried literally and almost everything and my best to upload it.So please be patient as I’m trying my best. But then again is there any chance?… :/"
Guy needs to learn when to GIVE UP... why so desperate to show us, are you trying to get famous? It's not worth getting in trouble. (also there are so many comments on his youtube ENCOURAGING him to upload it else where.. REALLY NOW REALLY!? JUST STOP....) Also another thing to note is that this is Viacom/Nicks/Bryke's work they deserve to do w/e they want with their material even if that means keeping it a secret. I forgot who but it was either Mike or Byran that commented saying they didn't want the leaked video reposted (yet it was all over tumblr...). Yes we fans "deserve" to see Korra since we've waited "so long"(can I note I HATE these whiners saying oh mai gawwd we've had korra delayed soo muuchhzz we DESERVE THIS . SCREW YOU VIACOM....) but not so much that we're going disrespect the official distributors/creators especially since they're the ones that brought us this amazing series in the first place... I just think some people need to learn a thing or two about respect even if it is toward this "evil" company named Viacom.... Also this guy posting the leak stuff doesn't own this material as far as I'm concerned and I'm sure he can get in big trouble for this especially if he work(ed/s) for them and somehow got a copy and is now distributing it with no official consent (I mean I'd think that'd be like violating a signed contract or something, blah blah I'm no legal person).
Ugh I'm sorry I'm coming off as this precocious female dog but this is vexing me so bad I'm even typing this in my boring bio class LOL

DON'T YOU EVEN JOKE ABOUT THAT MISTER. Lalalalala, Fall 2012, fall 2012... Sorry to burst your bubble, but it seems likely that it will get delayed another year. ( As referenced here) I know it's all just speculation and rumors at this time, but considering that the official staff have stated that they are as of now, UNCLEAR as to when exactly they will go on air, the delay seems more of a possibility as much as a Fall 2012 release. Here's to hoping the rumors and I are wrong though. |

Here's to hoping the rumors and I are wrong though. SIGHHHHH something else that's been irking me.... This is how I see it.... The ONLY MAIN source that said it was coming in 2013 was the Dark Horse Comics. ANY SITE besides DHC that said it was in 2013 got that info FROM DHC (and didn't bother to site it....)... Now to DHC's comment. I would really like to believe it's a typo and not to mention they were talking about the comic book so they might have mixed up dates and such. No one has also confirmed the date so I would like to believe it's false (also a site with the name daily gossip I would hardly think it's its a valid source). This is what happens when everyone goes into this panic phase of oMGGAWD NOOOO NOT ANOHTER YEARRRR and then spread rumors about 2013,2013, delay delay.... Also not to mention, correct me if I'm wrong, didn't they say at SDCC it'll be sometime in 2012? Anyways that's just my take on the 2013 rumor... I really wish people would stop getting their panties in a bunch when hearing a delay.... You'll like the show most likely no matter when it airs, just BE PATIENT.... I would like to say I'm a pretty hardcore ATLA fan, but I'm willing to wait for Korra because I know it'll be worth that wait, it'll just make everything worth while.... /I swear my blood pressure probably doubled.... |

Still havent seen it but I think that Nickleodean/Viacom is screwing the pooch when it comes to marketing the Avatar series again. Actually, its almost unbeleiveable that ATLA still ended up as good as it did.

I feel you there. Unfortunately, as written in the article when asked about the truth to the rumors, one official staff member stated that they are currently experiencing unspecified "difficulties" and are now uncertain when they will go live with the series. This news is post SDCC so this casts some doubt on the possibility of a 2012 release which is really what's got fans worried concerning the rumors. Regardless of whether or not DHC posted any news it would have been better if none of the official staff came forward with any news other than debunking said rumors. Since the news going around did nothing to the contrary, once again the release date has come into question. Here is the specific post of the article. Until we get more recent confirmation on when Viacom/Paramount will actually release the series, I'm afraid the rumors and doubt will persist. |

I think it just meant they didn't know when in 2012 they were releasing yet as people keep wondering if its spring or fall of 2012. But that's how I see it. I mean don't they have 26 of the episodes already produced I don't see how much complications could delay it to another year .___.

Did anyone else notice how the opening called the series "Avatar: The Legend of Korra" as opposed to "The Last Airbender: The Legend of Korra" like they have been previously. Maybe they were able to get that monkey known as James Cameron of their backs.

Maybe they were able to get that monkey known as James Cameron of their backs. I totally forgot about that xD I kept thinking if that intro was connected with the leaked 1 min teaser of the 1st ep, was like a pilot or something? but then I was like Korra looked exactly like how we saw her in the official nick trailer so .____. (and I think there was exactly the same scene from the leak that was in the official trailer...) I mean they can obviously change that one title card easily, but yeah made me wonder. In all honesty Cameron can take it up his you know what because from 2005-2008 he apparently had no problem with Avatar: The Last Airbender until his "cutting edge" movie came out.....  But sigh copyright issues can be so fickle sometimes. |

l didn't manage to watch the preview but l guess l prefer to wait for the actual opening of legend of korra. l like the element of surprise and l think that it's going to be exciting in 2012. after all, having the chance to see the life of the next avatar after aang is an awesome opportunity in itself.  |

I keep hearing about the leaks, I saw the opening at LJ a while ago. Avatar_Fans and Capslock_Avatar both kinda exploded.

Maybe they were able to get that monkey known as James Cameron of their backs. In some parts of the world...the UK for instance...it was NEVER called 'The Last Airbender', it was called 'Avatar:The Legend of Aang'...several of my DVDs bare that title, even though it didn't bare that name on TV here. And it makes little sense to call Korra the last Airbender when she's not. It could also be their way of distancing themselves from a certain movie... |
