Why would you think that?

Don’t give money to the same people who gave you Korra.

But The Last Airbender was legitimately good

its not coming out till June

May at Best Buy actually
And the creators said they went back to the masters but if it's the same ones they used for the digital HD release from a couple months back then it's gonna be a pretty average upscale (better than the original DVDs by a mile, but nowhere near real HD)
It definitely wasn't originally exported in hi-def, it's possible that they still have the original animation project files and can re-render it in HD like they did for Samurai Jack but it's looking like Nick probably didn't put in the effort

I mean Avatar is great but I'm just wondering why Nick never put out a Spongebob bluray aside from the movies.

Season one is the only classic season that could be released in full HD on Blu-ray as it was finished on film, two and three would need a major overhaul. And who gives a shit about the rest

I wouldn't be surprised if Nickelodeon cut corners and stole the fan upscales for the BDs.

I agree the rest are shit but it seems weird that they have this thing against bluray even for the show they used to spam so bad they got mainstream criticism for and had to dial back. You'd think back when all that spam was happening and the merch was hitting highs, they'd have put out blurays.

Technically the fans that did that couldn't even fight it since they didn't make the series and just used copies from Nick to make edit/changes to it and spread them around illegally.

It's a terrible upscale. Don't bother.

>Season one is the only classic season that could be released in full HD on Blu-ray as it was finished on film
Citation needed. That sounds like bullshit.
The fan upscale is horrifically bad. The first 4 episodes are literally unwatchable, and there are halo artifacts well into the second season.

It's only very recently that western kids cartoons on Blu-ray beyond DC shows is a thing at all period.
A:TLA is likely being done as response to Samurai Jack and Korra (which debatably wasn't marketed to children at all for most of its run) doing well and Batman the Animated Series being on the way (along with all the Spielberg 90s shows if Warner Archive Q&A user is to be believed). It's possible they could bring out the Sponge next but Nick themselves seem to have realized the peak is past them, they unbelievably actually removed SB reruns from Nicktoons completely about a month ago.
We don't know that for sure as no one has the discs yet, but it's a damn good chance. If your main concern is owning the show physically these WILL be better than the DVDs (it'd be hard to be worse for S1) but if you feel like you'll feel ripped off if these are upscales definitely wait for reviews.
>Citation needed. That sounds like bullshit.
That's how traditional animation works user, any time you see real ink & paint in a cartoon it was captured on film as that was simply the workflow, filming cels and backgrounds one at a time on a 35mm camera, and with SB season one it's extra apparent if you have the web HD copies, which although appearing upscaled have noticeable film grain.
Now, a lot of classic Nick shows were shot on film but then edited on video locking them at videotape resolution forever without a scene-by-scene reconstruction from the elements (like Friends, Seinfeld, and Star Trek: TNG got) but for SB I'm not sure that's the case and a real HD source might just exist. For sure a lot of the classic CN Cartoon Cartoons were completely finished on film, see the copy of "Dexter's Rude Removal" that [as] released which was clearly real HD

>The fan upscale is horrifically bad. The first 4 episodes are literally unwatchable, and there are halo artifacts well into the second season.
To be fair, the upscalers did acknowledge that there were problems that couldn't be fixed.

On the other hand, such problems would also prove if Nick were to steal that footage.

On the third hand, Pic Related.

user... I already know what you're talking about.
I don't see any significant difference in the ink-and-paint between TLA seasons at all. Can you post an example of what you're referring to?

>vid related
>looks worse than the original
That's what happens when you fall for the upscale meme - literally creating something out of nothing.

That's just stupid. Just because they fucked up with one show doesn't mean you should boycott the good product they made.

Well, we don't have an original against which we can compare this clip, now, do we?

I'm talking about the original from the DVD set, which is already of very high quality in season 3.
Upscales do "okay" for sweeping distance shots, but make any details look muddy and blurred.

Oh I was talking about Spongebob, context user

I'm pretty sure it has the same shitty upscale that was released on Amazon recently. They managed to fix those horrible halo effects in first episodes but otherwise it's way worse than that fan upscale.

God that cover art is really fucking weak.

It's the case art, the slipcover looks like this
And both are original pieces done specifically for this set, I dunno they're not the best but also display a lot more effort than is typical nowadays

Does it at least come with more/better extras than the ATLA dvds?

That actually sounds good.

A friend of mine bought book 3 but since all it had as extras were a bryke commentary for Sozin's Comet and a really shitty 5 minute documentary about the women in ATLA I never tried buying the dvds.

I know. I just wanted more Ty Lee in a two-piece.

why does sokka look so handsome?

>they unbelievably actually removed SB reruns from Nicktoons completely about a month ago.
what the fuck i have nicktoons just for the SB reruns at night when I dont wanna watch adult swim

Yeah honestly fuck those pieces of shit, after Korra Avatar isn't that good anyway they ruined it, Fuck them all forever

>5 minute documentary about the women in ATLA
what the fuck, why?

Fuck those fuckers all to hell and die for what they did

>he didn't buy the first 100 episodes DVD set a decade ago
The first four seasons are also included with Amazon Prime, and it's not like the show didn't get its fair share of airtime over the years...

Anyone who does at this point needs to be purged

This, destroy all Korrafags

Eh, since I have the regular complete series I guess I'll buy the blu-ray then compare them side-by-side

Theyare going to pay forwhat they did..

I have a fucking huge collection of cartoons on DVD, but I prefer watching TV, I can't explain it, I just enjoy watching what's being broadcast and other people are watching it. I have SB on DVD

I'm going to I'm going to be so mad if anybody does

korra was a mistake. Aang wasn't

The fact that Korra even exists absolutely enrages me, that they could ruin something so perfectly good as Avatar and just fuck it up that bad.

I miss all the Toph cosplayers...

>Posts all disappeared
Looks like he's banned, thank god

I'm hyped

Probably trying to wank over how they did stronk female characters when it could have easily been included with a general character documentary about how they feel like actual kids and teens and not just generic anime munckins

They're literally the exact same features as on the DVDs. Compare the lists if you don't believe me.
It's not nearly as bad as you're making it out to be. Remember, that was way before the SJW era.

In fact, as ironic as it is the Katara segment of that documentary provides some of the strongest evidence for Kataang from her side that we have before the finale, meaning that's it's basically anti-Tumblr.

Just watched it for the first time. I agree with the other user it's actually not that bad. Except the narrator sounds like shes trying to teach an infant how to talk and is really annoying. The intro talks about "girl power" but once it actually starts talking about the characters its actually pretty good. Feminism isn't mentioned once. They do interview an "Avatar Mom" which is pretty dumb but also kind of funny. Especially when she describes what she admires about Azula.
