UK gets episodes before USA

As you may know avatar season 3 was released to the UK on monday. They (including me :mrgreen: ) are getting 2 episodes a day for the whole week.

On friday nicktoons are airing Nightmares and daydreams + Day of the black sun part 1 : The invasion. After that in the weekend classics from book 1 and 2 will be shown.




Miscellaneous Avatar Updates

Just a few updates that have surfaced over the past few days, but I haven’t been around to post -

Turbonick has a 1 minute, 3 second long preview of The Beach up, check it out if you feel like it.

Newsarama recently interviewed Mike and Bryan, beware of spoilers.

Animation World Magazine posted an interview with Mike DiMartino, and although he mainly talks about what has influenced Avatar, the Avatar Live Action movie, and other things, it’s still a pretty good read :) Not much Season 3, so for those of you who like being spoiler-free, you’re pretty safe.




Avatar: The Burning Earth

The second installment in the avatar video game franchise went on sale yesterday. You can view lots of information, screenshots, and other things on the official website.

If anyone wants to submit a review of the game, it would be much appreciated :grin:




Countdown Craze

You can now add a countdown to the next episode of Avatar on your Google homepage by clicking on this link. Woot! I don’t know how or if it will update when each new episode airs.

There is also just a plain countdown file here if you’re interested.

Or, if you’re really weird (like me :lol: ), there is a book 3 countUP available here, keeping track of how much time has passed since Book 3 premiered.




A Few Random Notes

Just a few random things I wanted to put on the main page-
First, I can confirm that the feedback is now definitely working, having received several emails in the past few days, and replying to them as well.

Second, the Avatar DVD to iPod guide has been working fine for a couple people who have emailed me, so that works too.


Third, congratulations to Jeremy for beating the Pong game in the Waterbender Arcade (you can see the full size picture of the final score that he took with his phone by clicking on the thumbnail). For those of you who’ve been coming to this website for a while, you might remember this news post, where I dared anyone to beat the Pong game, thinking that it was impossible. So congrads again, and maybe I’ll think of a prize or something.

Fourth, character bios are just about done, I have a few characters from season 3 to add, and the Y’s and Z’s from the entire show, but those will be up once I finish cleaning my computer of spyware (not fun).

Finally, the episodes page is now complete through Book 1, and has nifty drop down menus to help you navigate through all episodes. It should be updated through all known Season 3 titles, if it doesn’t appear updated to you, refresh your page. Individual pages for each episode in seasons 2 and 3, in addition to special episodes, are under construction.




Episode 311 and 312 Titles!

Dongbu Feng has revealed the titles of Episodes 311 and 312!
They are (drum roll / spoiler alert)

Book 3, Chapter 11: Day of Black Sun Part 2: The Eclipse
Book 3, Chapter 12: The Western Air Temple

The episodes page will be updated with this information soon. In the mean time, start speculating!




NOOOOO!!!!

Well, I have some really, really, really, really bad news, and some ok news that starts to make up for it.
The bad news: My feedback form doesn’t, or rather, didn’t work for the past month or two, and I had no idea. When you sent a message it forwarded you to the thank you page and said that it worked, but it really didn’t. This is due to nothing more than my total stupidity.

The ok news: It works now. Turns out I had forgotten to assign the variable that the form read as the email address to send to. Basically, the email you typed up was submitted and worked just fine, but the form had no idea where to send it. But that’s fixed.

So in summary, if you sent an email to me through the feedback form sometime over the past month or so, I didn’t get it. I’m sorry for the inconvenience I’m sure this caused, feel free to send me an angry email in all caps. And, if it’s not to much to ask, if you remember why you sent your email, and especially if you were submitting something, please re-send it.
Sorry!




Avatar on your iPod

I recently figured out how to rip the Avatar DVDs to my video iPod. If this sounds cool to you, click on “Avatar on your iPod” near the top of the left navigation. If you have any problems with my instructions, email me via the feedback form. Enjoy!

Edit: Speaking of iPods, Avatar is absolutely dominating the iTunes Kids TV category. Its three episodes are the #1, 2, and 3 downloads individually, and its three seasons are the three top season downloads. Check out a screencap of that here. Avatar Season 3 is currently the #8 overall top download for whole seasons on iTunes. View that here. Also, “The Headband” is the #25 most downloaded single episode, and “The Awakening” is #42. Congratulations to Nick, Mike and Bryan, and the whole Avatar crew!




Book 3 Volume 2 DVD Announced


The Book 3, Volume 2 DVD release date has been announced, it’s January 22nd, 2008. Along with the release of the DVD comes the titles of episodes 306 through 310. 306-309 were already known, but 310 was new. The title is (spoiler alert!):
Day of the Black Sun

For full details, click here.

Edit: TVShowsOnDVD has added a new page about the DVD, available here, where they talk about the extra features on the DVD. Also, they say that Episode 10, Day of the Black Sun, will air on Thanksgiving weekend.

Also, as a side note, a new “Book 3″ category has been added to the news system. For those who don’t know, below each post, it says “Categories:” a little ways across the line, which refers to which category a news post was filed under. You can now view all posts about Season 3 on this page. To get to it, scroll down the right nav bar, or click “News Categories” at the top of the page.
