Mike and Bryan go fairly in depth on the movie during the Nerdist Writer's Panel podcast they did.

tl;dl - it was a mess, none of their input was considered, and they hate the movie. But they did get to meet some great people through the process.

Here.

Whole thing is interesting, but the movie part is somewhere in the second half.

Hey Mike, love both your shows and looking forward to your book series!

1) How different was it writing a novel vs. writing for television? Was it a difficult change to get used to?

2) I know you've also been writing the post-series comic continuation for Korra. Since the show's finale was written knowing it would be the finale of the show, was it difficult at first to figure out a natural place to take it from there or was it similar to simply writing another season?

Side note: if you like shows, and especially "kid's shows", like Avatar and Korra that tackle those issues effectively and don't do much sugar coating on reality, I'd HIGHLY recommend Steven Universe.

Thank you for the answer!
