Yeah, I know. This photo is stupid. Ironic B-boy posturing is rarely amusing to me, but I came back from color correction to find the studio empty, closed early for Memorial Day weekend. I put this hat on Kevin Coppa’s puppet, and one thing led to another…
RANDOM END-OF-THE-WEEK MUSINGS
–Sorry, it is true that there is no new episode airing this weekend. But a new Korra will be on next Saturday, June 2nd. And it’s a doozy. A REAL DOOZY. In the meantime, Nick.com wanted me to let you all know they made a playlist where you can watch the first seven episodes online, in case you need to catch up, or convert friends, family, babysitters, family pets, etc. Here’s the link: http://at.nick.com/Lv4P9O
–As some of you may know, Korra has been the number one show with teen audiences in the U.S. for some of these first seven episodes. As previously mentioned, I don’t put too much stock in ratings, but this is mind-blowing to me. How is a Saturday morning “cartoon” beating out prime time network shows like American Idol, Glee, The Voice, and Family Guy with teen audiences? We’re all surprised, honored, and baffled. My guess is that the 12-year-olds who were growing up on Avatar are now 16-year-olds, and Korra has sort of aged up right along with them. Whatever the reason, thanks!
–Mike and I love you guys, but we don’t take requests. We make the best show we can, telling the stories we want to tell, and then we put it out there in the world. By the time you guys see it and have “all the feels” and/or get all mad at stuff, we are working on something far, far ahead of that. It may not always go the way you want it to, but at least it is honest art, straight from our hearts. And a lot of these reactions may turn out to be knee-jerk ones in the long run, once you see where the stories and characters go. I’d rather do that than make some watered down “design by committee” thing that attempted to please everyone. If it were up to the majority of the audience, we’d probably have a show where Tahno and the Cabbage Merchant play beach games on Ember Island for 500 episodes… In short, as you guys say, I REGRET NOTHING.
–This is funny, but it never happened. I’m vegan.
–And lastly, my favorite quote from Mike this week, commenting on a cool, momentous shot from the Book 1 finale, addressing the whole fandom: “GIF that and put it on yer Tumblr.” HA!
Have a great, long weekend!
Love,

This is actually heartbreaking when you remember Lilo tells Stitch her parents went for a drive, and the bad weather caused them to crash.
I always thought this scene was adorable
Wow thanks guy
Right in the childhood.
i never made that connection
Oh my god. That’s why it’s so important to her. Oh my god
this is tragic.

:D congrats. You have the next 24 hours to get in contact with me before it goes to the next person.
Results where chosen with a random number generator.
If you didn’t win, but think you still might want a doll, keep in mind I still make but charge a little for my time. I wish I had the time and money to just make free dolls for everyone, but I don’t :/
“They might all be dead by now.”“Seventy-Five thousand homes were destroyed.”
Perfect.
“Every entry after that was the same way.”
Yes.
“And anyone?” I ask after a moment.
Oh, okay.
“Over the centuries, wine has been drunk out of a variety of glasses, ranging from heavy beakers to delicate crystal flutes.”
I don’t drink, so I can only assume this is a metaphor. …No, I still don’t know what this means.
” ‘But this one was walking, I tell you; and there ain’t no elm tree on the North Moors.’ “
welp.
“So well intended, and yet so insulting,”
Lol wut.
There are no words on page 45.
“There’s that evil word again.”
“Who are you?’
OH GOD
“What’s all this trouble? Who has been knocking my people out?”
oh
“There was no doubt about it,” He swallowed.
Well shit.
A guy with sandy hair in a polo neck and jeans is waving at me.
I guess that’s how it starts…… =p

Why can’t it be next Saturday noooowwww.
Thanks for all the entries you guys. I was late getting back home.
So, everyone who started following after my initial post is entered once.
Everyone who sent an ask also gets an entry. Two got you both. Be on the lookout, results up in a few minutes :D I’ll alert you through a message and a post.
My official backstage title is “artistic director ” … Gracie likes this title… sucks being too old to actually be in the summer show… darn. I’m only 21…
To end the contest and do my drawing…
SO REMEMBER!
A follow gets you one entry.
A message in my ask telling me what doll you want also gets you one entry.
So, up to 2 entries per person. :D
Keep going, keep going :D
Amon and Lieutenant waiting for Saturday
Whoever made this gif wins the internet.
