| dave_is_slick 12/21/19 11:52:09 PM #67 | AceMos posted... you are factually wrong its not a retcon at all it was confirming what fans had said at the time it airedSince the show did not actually build anything up, it is indeed a retcon. You're the only one mentioning a first date. Nobody else has. Varrick and Julie already had a strange relationship that you could tell was oozing with sexual tension. Again, real buildup, proper buildup is what they did with Marcie and PB. AKA, something substantial from the get go that left questions but had people immediately wondering if they were a thing before with subsequent episodes dropping more and more real clues. They didn't start with something that is easily dismissed as something just friends would be doing. --- The most relaxing version of Aquatic Ambiance I've ever heard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl61y1XM7sM |

| dave_is_slick 12/21/19 11:39:40 PM #60 | masterpug53 posted... He quite is. The 'that just means they're good friends' stance is not only the most tired and easily-debunked attitude towards Korrasami, but also one of the most tired attitudes towards homosexual relationships in general. The showrunners stated that Korra and Asami building towards a relationship was their intention starting in Book 3, and the foreshadowing is there. His willful ignorance / resistance towards it doesn't change this. There is no ambiguity because it was the showrunners' explicit intent to plant these seeds, and Korra and Asami did in fact end up in a romantic relationship; to continue to deny this is to quite simply deny the reality of the situation.Marcie and PB is buildup. This wasn't. I don't know why it bothers you so much. --- The most relaxing version of Aquatic Ambiance I've ever heard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl61y1XM7sM |
