The cartoon one, okay? We know you were asking; it’s the natural consequence of this bizarre—and frankly asinine—situation we all find ourselves in, where pop culture is playing host to two completely separate, successful running franchises named Avatar. It doesn’t help that Steven Yeun (you saw his name in the headline, right?) is exactly the kind of guy you could see popping up in either James Cameron’s Avatar movies or the long-running animated series; he’s a successful and prolific voice actor, but also an Oscar nominee who’s done big-budget science fiction films like Mickey 17. This whole thing could really have gone either way, so nobody gets anywhere by yelling at us about it. Christ!
