Cyberpunk with the avatar being reborn into an android. They already pushed on the boundaries of sexuality and gender (as much as could be done on Nickelodeon), so the next frontier would be to push on the boundaries of sentience itself -- do androids dream of electric sheep?
Can an avatar be reborn into an android?
Just when I thought you couldn't make a dumber post after saying that only the male audience hated The Legend of Korra, you suggest the Avatar being reborn into an android.

That's your angst ridden opinion with no reasoning other than you disagree with my opinions. Typical internet B.S. bordering on the logic of a troll. Do you have more than an opinion, Mr. Bioshock nerd rager, or are all of your posts this two dimensional?
I don't typically enjoy insulting a person, but that's all you've done so far -- but now that it's out of my system:
I think a cybrpunk world would be a logical progression through the technological ages -- age of steam power during the industrial revolution replacing water power (hence the conflict between the fire nation and older ways of the water nations), the electrical power which replaced the steam power, and then the next age which would be technologically beyond our modern days;
And, the Avatar being born as an android would be a logical progression in the civil rights issues that are written into each of the Avatar series. It would also bridge the gap between Ghost in the Shell audiences and Avatar. Something akin to the similarities between Keiko Nobumoto's Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Shamploo.
What is the nature of your disagreement?
An excellent story with a similar concept is Frank Miller's Ronin, in which a reincarnated ronin is born within an artificial intelligence. Quite excellent blending of dystopian cyberpunk and the romantic idealism of Bushido. I had almost forgotten about this DC limited series, but perhaps that is partly why I imagined it as the logical next step in, aside from the technological pattern in the Avatar series itself.
It truly is a great concept and there are many stories that merge the boundaries between science fiction and fantasy. These genre blending stories are both highly successful and profound in their storytelling; both plot heavy and full of both mythological and modern character development. Star Wars and the post-apocalyptic animated feature, Wizards, also come to mind as blending the idea of mystical fantasy with dystopian science fiction.

The creators didn't abandon it, sadly -- the fans did. And Nickelodeon did their damndest to make sure the fans did, with the way they released it. But if Korra had kept the ratings it had in S1, there'd already be a third Avatar series or an animated movie by now.

Pride is not the opposite of shame, but its source. True humility is the antidote to shame.
LoL. What a stupid idea.
