Well, Avatar: the Last Airbender was pretty dang complex on it's own. Mike and Bryan basically had to create an entire new world, on e that was alive, functioning, and believable, even with all the spirits, mysticism, and magic element kung fu. Even the Mix-and-Match animals have to make some biological sense. Then again, this is all just my prediction based on what info I've gleaned from the show, information from the old show, combined with my knowlage of history, politics, economics, culture, and human group psychology. I'm trying to connect the dots like everyone else here. I'm trying to answer the question of how a group of non-benders can pose a threat to a large group of people who can manipulate the very elements, including one who can channel the forces of what is essentially a god. You have to look at the evidence provided by the creators and in the trailer, you have to consider the setting of the story, which is a big city in a world going through it's own version of the Roaring 20's (and possibly the Great Depression too), and you look at our own history and what was going on then.
