The Legend of Korra Episode 7 Review: Korra vs Equalist Super-Weapons
This week, Korra got yet another lesson in how tough the Equalists will be to get rid of. Super-weapons, betrayals – it is not a good time to be the young Avatar. The episode starts with Tarrlok talking at a press conference. He says the Equalists don’t want equality, only war, and that Chief Beifong failed them all and that the police need new leadership. I knew I hated that guy.
Korra rides Naga to go and see Mako and Bolin. The stadium, where they live, is being closed after last week’s trouble and destruction, and they have to move out. Korra has sorted everything so that they can come and live at the Air Temple with her and Tenzin’s family but Asami, the rich girlfriend of Mako, has already invited them to come and live with her,...

The Legend of Korra Review: Episodes 3 and 4; Amon's Rebellion Grabs Attention
With The Legend of Korra debuting two weeks ago, I thought I'd take a while before diving back into it. I read through my own reviews and realised that my childish excitement may have been taking over a little bit. A lot in fact. But in my defence, it is a good show, in it's early days; very much on its own road to greatness.
Episode 3 continued the early habit of developing the world except it brought a much more important element to the show than the world they live in. It brought the villain, the main antagonist, and it brought him in hard. Amon, leader of the Equalists, is a villain worthy of striking fear into both the characters and in fact the audience.

Nickelodeon Scene from “The Legend of Korra.”
Increasingly, Korra’s situation is becoming morally murky–after all, heroes are typically expected to be supporting populist revolutions, not trying to suppress them. In the latest episode of “The Legend of Korra,” the young Avatar is recruited to join a task force created by the ambitious Councilman Tarrlok that’s charged with putting down the equalist rebellion. To the relief and surprise of her mentor Tenzin, she at first refuses to join,...
