Here's the funny thing about Avatar, there's nothing the Navi can do if the RDA just decided to glass the planet from orbit and harvest the minerals afterward.
@Kevin Warburton You need more energy to send a space ship to the next stellar system at 90% of lightspeed than to change the orbit of and asteroid. they just had to dismantle one cargo ship and strip its thruster on an asteroid, actually just a cargo ship throwing random rock from orbit would be enough to cause destruction on scale similar to nuclear weapon.
Guys you don't need to go anywhere to do it. Stay in system, find big space rock, shove big space rock into pandora at moderate(by cosmic scale) speeds, profit.
@n00bMaster69 The mountains float because they're electromagnetic, not because of the atmosphere. Unobtanium is a superconductor which is why the humans want it.
Anyone who can travel at even a fraction of the speed of light (Like the RDA) is capable of 'glassing' a planet, fly your ship at the target and release a projectile - Then slow down. Atmosphere / Magnetism would not be able to stop the projectile. The atmosphere of Earth couldn't stop the meteor that killed the dinosaurs, a projectile going a fraction of the speed of light would be even more powerful than that. Magnetism wouldn't be a problem either and if it was you could just launch a non-magnetic projectile anyways. This is actually a big plot hole in any sci-fi work that portrays the use of light-speed travel, a good example being Starwars (Which is why it was weird to see them acknowledge it was possible in The Last Jedi, when Holdo sacrificed herself). Light-speed travel is stupidly easy to weaponize and stupidly hard to defend against. If you are capable of it, you can completely shit on anyone who isn't. This is one of the many reasons why the human race wouldn't stand a chance if a hostile alien species ever attacked us.
I always liked that the colonel, even tho kind of a cliche villain, is very skilled, cares for his men, is not afraid to be on the front lines and presents a legit threat to main characters. Jake always seemed like a traitor to me. He had one job and fucked it up.
And jake did it all to taste an alien, he is not one of the bros anymore. Side rant, you think that one day in the future (if we get off this planet) some kind of new ideology will rise? Something like starship troopers (facism with a twist of technocracy, yes like national socialism) or maybe something like the empire (super advanced and alien hating government that has loyal members and a immortal leader to never stray his leadership) because I feel like we might progress to one of those governments, which both are quite enjoyable to live in thinking of their success and prosperity
@@daimyo1178 I would anyday, free food, free training, if I survive long enough I’ll be as dangerous as the colonel, better extreme work and taxes in todays day and age just to live
Jake betrayed EVERYONE. The Avatar program team, the Na'vi and the security team 😂 all this because clapping blue cheeks while pulling on a tail was more important to him than anything
Which was, after all, his JOB on the planet. I mean, he was security at the start, but then after they accepted him, he did have a new job to work on. You had ONE thing....
Yes! Thank you! I remember thinking that the very first time I saw this movie. Why in the hell didn’t he ever tell them about the humans wanting to mine? You had one job, dumbass.
As neil degrasse tyson say it.. "If we became too inteligent enough and advance that we can teraform other planet, why not teraform earth to become earth again.."
While a possibility in the _far_ longterm, terraforming is not viable for even interplanetary settlement; there is a lot that goes into a biosphere and creating a stable one from scratch takes both the time to just get the full set of organisms in place and the time to balance them all sustainably. Just because a planet can be colonized quickly does not mean it can be terraformed quickly, and on top of that the energy required to purify an atmosphere with too much of a fatal chemical in it is far more than that required to simply dump some new chemicals into a shortage (as if it were that easy to begin with).
At the end of Avatar, Eywa actually directs the wildlife of Pandora to attack humanity and drive them off. Scarier still, it does so without directly connecting with them. That’s a Gravemind level of intelligence.
So Eywa is the colonial brain of the planet? In a sense, it's like microbes trying to mine a human brain for molecular metals. I say we mine it anyways.
The craziest thing in Avatar is that humans had body production technology and saw Navi having permanent mind transfer technology. And NOBODY realized that it literally means physical immortality.
Yeah because their quarterly statement did not include a line for "Making humans immortal", so they didn't give a shit. It's a minor theme in the movie, with Grace even pointing out how they can't see the ACTUAL wealth of Pandora, having their noses literally stuck in the ground.
@@cannonfodder8252 I loved the first, but the second movie was trash. What wolandrew said should've been the reason they came back. They even did the "hunt for immortality" narrative but completely overlooked what was already there and invented a new one... (just because he wanted water) The humans trying to understand and claim ey'was mind-transferring powers should've been their goal. Could've easily made it work too, by simply having the underwater trees be unique and central in understanding it. Sigh...
If you can afford to have a new body made to transfer your consciousness into. The procedure would more than likely be outrageously expensive and only reserved for the richest/most influential humans, and you'd have to give the new body time to grow, and what if something happens to you in the meantime? What if you die or experience brain death while waiting for your new body to be ready? The Avatar bodies must've been injected with some compound to stop the accelerated growth rate, what longterm effects does that have on other bodily systems?
When I first this as a young child, I was actually upset that humanity was the bad guy, I told my dad that it was stupid and didn’t want to watch it again. Makes sense that I am a 40K fan now!
" whenever i suspect someone is evil, i also consider thr fact they might just be incompetent, and thats usually closer to the truth" By far the best quote to live by

one of the coolest scenes in the move is when the general kicks opens the door and walks outside without air supply and just holds he breath while firing a rifle.
SPOILER ALERT. This comment is interesting now, because they actually kind of did nuke them. When they arrived they completely destroyed everything where they planned to make their base. But they say they actually are here this time mainly because earth is dying and they need a new home. So they probably don't want to just randomly throw nukes at their new home.
It’s not actually a theory- James Cameron pattented all the tech made during the movie and sold it off. He’s not focusing on making movie off the movie itself, rather it’s simply a demonstration of their capabilities. Some movies made today have some piece of James Cameron tech
The sequel no-one will ever make is that after the RDA were ousted from Pandora, the military shows up and bombs the planet to ash. Because if Unobtanium was as important as it's stated in the movie, that conflict would not have ended where the movie did.
The conflict didn’t end it’s just that the forces they had in place were not powerful enough so they were sent home. Don’t forget that it takes about half a decade to go there so I’m pretty sure a larger and more organized force is on its way.
That wouldn’t be smart and here’s the reason you really think dropping a nuke would solve the problem Good idea if you wanna risk contaminating the mineral you were after you idiot it’s very valuable to them and I don’t think they’re even going to risk that
Why not orbital bombardment in the first place, then send in the ground troops to cleanup the rest. Well why play on their ground if you could just beat everything with superior firepower
@@許進曾 could be because the magic metal (since it has such a high energy capacity) could be destroyed or cause even worse explosions if hit with bombardments.
The fact that humanity was on it's last legs did kind of skew the point. If we couldn't get the unobtanium, we were fucked and doomed to die. Not to mention that the Na'vi shot first. We asked nicely and they spit in our face. Well, we had the giant robots and guns, so don't say we didn't try to do it peacefully
Exactly! So many people skip over the fact that it is brought up that the humans tried to be peaceful at first and the Na'vi went straight to violence. Even at the point that the movie starts humanity is still trying to be peaceful, by the time they have decided peace is no longer an option they try non-lethal methods and to push the Na'vi away from them. Their whole plan is "give these giant blue psychos a reason to leave the area we are in"
The fools tried to use over-complicated combined arms operations tactics. Any true servant of the Emperor knows that shovel-armed human wave attacks trump those e'ry time.
My biggest complaint with the movie was that Jake had one mission, negotiate a fair mining treaty. However, as soon as Neytiri shows up, Jake completely forgets his mission and never once brings it up again. He gets his pony and his flying dinosaur, he gets his alien "strange", and winds up going native and betraying everyone at the base and back on Earth. He had one thing to do and he fucked that up.
@@@charissawilkinson9270 first off, your two comments contradict each other. If it was just so he could walk, he could have completed his mission and gotten the surgery. That being said, his reasons for betraying his species have multiple possible motivations. There was the romantic relationship with the tall blue hottie; there was his desire to walk again, which he was able to do as a Na'vi, and then there's the motivation for revenge against the establishment for discarding him after he was paralyzed in the service of the military. Each reason individually would be a powerful motivator... put them together and it's no wonder that he chose to do what he did. But that's all beside the point. The real reason is "white man bad, native good." Hollywood's overarching motivation for everything is politically correct environmentalism and social justice, which they laid on so thick in this movie you needed one of those SCBA's to breath in the movie theatre. It's kinda funny that native Americans would be offended by this movie... James Cameron bathes himself and movie-goers in his racial guilt over the settling (conquest?) of America.
@Alexis Versa Seek professional help. I get that your life went the wrong direction at one point and youre desperate about finding something to direct your anger onto to give yourself some sort of purpose
The biggest problem I had with Avatar wasn’t the Dancing with the wolves in space storyline (although that did make me roll my eyes quite a few times) or the Anti-Humanity theme (it didn’t even feel THAT Anti-Human upon rewatching it, more Human critical then anything) it was the naive idealization of Nature and severe Vilification of Science and Technology, many people have gotten the idea in their heads that Mother Nature is beautiful and fair and that we need to live in Harmony and Balance with her when in reality “Harmony” and “Balance” are Human concepts and Mother Nature is an ugly and mean and hateful bitch who’s only goal is to weed out those she deems “unfit” to survive (and usually they’re the ones who deserve to survive the most), but Technology let’s us spit in her face and say “fuck you bitch! We’re doing what we want from now on.” and this movie pretty much says that we should give that up in favor of going back to living as Hunter-Gatherers who rarely live to 20 and have to have 10+ kids because most of them will die before they reach walking age, fuck that I would rather put up with Climate Change.
- "(it didn’t even feel THAT Anti-Human upon rewatching it, more Human critical then anything)" I know right? I'm tired as hell of the "HUmaNiTy bAd!!!" narrative, but Avatar (in the MANY times i've rewatched it) *never* gave me that vibe. They are made the bad guys, sure, but they're still the most badass depiction of humans i've seen (while still being fairly grounded, which is why i enjoy it), and it doesn't feel like some blatant political message. (they're simply the bad guys of the movie) Don't even get me started on the second movie though... It took every mistake the first DIDN'T make and doubled down on them... Even forced in an evil white guy (with a good brown assistant) the anti-whites could rub one out to... At least Quaritch was badass and depicted respectfully, and was by no means used as a political or racist statement. Quaritch is still great though, and his relationship with the wild kid (his son) showed a lot of potential. (and showed some nuance with the kid being scared of an enraged neytiri) And yeah, the "nature is wonderful" thing has to stop, haha. I love nature, but nature is chaos. Pure evil, in many cases. These people know nothing about nature.
Just watched a Joe Rogan clip with Forrest Gallante. He said they visited a village in the Amazon and the village asked for medical assistance from the medic in the group Long story short, they gave a 3 year old kid with bad asthma an inhaler. But after it ran out he would probably wouldn't live to see adulthood
"Mother Nature is beautiful and fair" exactly! mother nature and cruel and savage and that you have to be equally cruel and savage as her to survive it, that's what tree huggers fail to understand
Nature doesnt have a goal. It just is. You can have a fucked up genetic disease that makes you unfit to survive after 30s but if you survive until you reproduce you "won" in the genetic game. Also climate change entails more than just climate. If it changes too much and youre not able to adapt you die so yeah equilibrium is the best choice
Not to mention that the protagonist never actually tried to accomplish his job in establishing negotiations about mining with the Navi - he was too busy falling in love. The avatar program was created to try to avoid conflict, not to create it. While he was having the time of his life on the personal level, the time for using negotiation to avoid conflict was being wasted. Imagine if he had instead helped negotiate peaceful co-existence, before things went bad... Humans did not need to move en mass to the inhospitable Pandora, they just needed ores, and potentially could have traded other goods and services, which would have saved not only lives on both sides, but would have been cheaper than war and thus please even cold hearted bean counters.
@@paulbeen459 Humans in this fictional story could have wiped them out from day one, but didn't, instead investing in schools, and then in the avatar technology, specifically attempting a peaceful co-existence. Humans needed the mineral (in small quantities which could be shipped via expensive interstellar transport), but did not need the planet or it's life. Since it's fiction, there is no "true" or "false" answer to your assertion. Your assertion is what in the real world would be called a counter-factual, the path one can only speculate upon since it's not the factual path our history followed; in a fictional universe, this 'alternate history' is even more vague - the author could have written in any other way one can name. But it's more logically consistent with the fictional universe as presented so far, for humans to co-exist with the Navi. I think that in essence you are saying that if you had written the story, your humans would have wiped our your Navi, and we cannot deny that.
Also, there are a couple of things the movie fails to recognize. 1- They wouldn't need Jake to do anything if the RDA would opt for shaft mining instead of pit mining, which they obviously had the tech to do. 2- Any civilization that has the capacity for near relativistic speeds will likely have the tech to no longer need fossil fuels, like nuclear fusion or at least miniaturized nuclear fission. The Earth and any tech they employ shouldn't be power by fossil fuels which would be costly to ship to Pandora. 3- Early in the movie it mentions that Pandora is smaller than Earth and has less gravity. Although the Na'avi were taller, they should be weaker than an Earth-born human who grew up in stronger gravity. 4- Because of the difficulty of getting support from the Earth, the colonists of Pandora would need the support and friendship from the local population. So, instead of killing them all, the humans would need to learn to coexist so they could survive and would be far more proactive than is even shown in developing their relationship with the local population. All in all, this movie is simply James Cameron's attempt to rewrite the history of colonization but exposes his own severe lack of understanding of the subject. He deifies primitavism, forgetting that modernity has made his whole career possible. I'm sorry, but I like AC, modern medicine, and streets not reeking of manure. Humanity is a young race that yearns for greatness. We're just going through our awkward adolescence. We won't always be stuck in this same place. We will advance beyond this.
if they had so much antimatter then they could use tiny and mostly safe amounts of antimatter for power generation Also i highly agree with point 3 humans vs navi would be dwarves vs elves and I imagine a human just carrying a navi like a barbell squat
Giant blue smurfs: yay we beat the humans with bows and arrows. Humans sometimes later: uhhuh okay cool. Here look at this, it's called a thermonuclear warhead.
All the humans would have really needed to conquer the smurfs was a commanding force that didn't consist of incompetent morons that relied on brute force tactics over competent leadership. Besides, the only reason the aliens won the "war" in the first place was because the plot was under the assumption that the humans would have immediately buggered off after their leader was killed. And instead of getting the more logical and satisfying ending of a larger military force showing up and bombing their dung huts into oblivion the evil Earth forces piss off and the main character gets to bone his overrated alien waifu. How absolutely boring.
With antimatter-based energy production, you can just fling a few stellar pebbles at the moon at relativistic speeds. Makes harvesting the metal afterwards easier too.
Even easier and less destructive just make a non nucleic bioweapon. Apparently on the wiki they have no nucleic acid which forms their cells, and just virus that attacks whatever mechanism it is, bingo bongo everythings intact except a bunch of savages.
Na'vi teaching the final battle of the movie - The largest and most important battle in the history of our people that shall never be rivaled. Humanity teaching the final battle of the movie - Alright class, today we will learn about the minor skirmish that preceded the full scale invasion of Pandora that led to the lobotomization of 90% of Na'vi to work in the Unobtanium mines.
That's not how lobotomies work. If unobtanium is really humanity's last hope, generally, the military would be leading because thats usually how inter-national relations work. Private companies aren't allowed to controlled certain markets that could lead to military intervention. Either the military attacks in the movie are illegal and no one is gonna be sending more forces or there is no proper military to send in the first place and that physical forces sent was the most that could be sent.
@@noconaroubideaux9423 Its never expressly stated, and forgive me if I'm wrong I've only ever seen the movie so if there's comics or books that clarify my apologies, that the RDA is just a company. Even now groups like Amazon have amassed an immense power in our day to day lives to the point that they could easily evolve to being treated like nation states. And the lobotomy thing was a quick joke about the removal of the Navi's free will.
@@paulzuk1468 My choice of words was more so to express the fact that by human standards this "conflict" wasn't very large. My apologies for not being more specific.
lol i remember my main thought after watching the film 'uhhh... why are they celebrating, they just pissed off a civilization with weaponry 100x more advanced than theirs. the sequel can't be anything but a complete massacre of these people.'
What gives the humans the right to mine anything there? Again - golden rule - wouldn't we view it as "evil" if some alien force did the same to us? etc.
@@adeimantusglaucon9732 Humanity takes their shit or all humanity dies. The moral is "I'm starving and you look tasty". Humanity tried peaceful coexistence and it failed so the Navi are gonna get Rolling Thunder'd when the cavalry shows up.
Actually agreed, just saying "War is hell" is an understatement. But the situation in the movie was more about colonising than "war". But it fails at that because I couldn't figure out Wth the RDA exactly wanted their approach to the Na'vi to be.
@@r7ahtesham885 by well written I mean showing the motives of both parties, not just the BLUEGGERS, justifying both actions, not just the BLUEGGERS for sympathizing with victims of muh colonies whole movie is a cashgrab for minorities and victimhood """people"""
Yeah but aliens aren't people, you can't have a 'no good side in war' if the enemies are actually legitimately abominations that need to be exterminated. Both sides have to be human.
Jake Sully: This is how it's done. When people are sittin' on shit that you want, you make 'em your enemy. Then you're justified in taking it. sounds familiar
It kind of seems like that's the way the film series is heading. The Na'vi are getting more and more aggressive and immoral. I believe that in the last film they'll use human weapons against the humans.
I have heard some say the most ethical war is the quickest. So if you have to go to war, go in dominate your opponent, then come to a peaceful agreement.
yeah if i where the rda ceo id ship as many antimatter and cobalt salted gigaton hydrogen bombs there as my ship could carry and erradicate every single lifeform on that rock with all consuming radioactive fire.
When I first watched Avatar, I never understood why I was expected to cheer for the Navi, the entire reason that we had even bothered contacting the Navi was for the survival of the entire human race. When the humans were all leaving to board their ships and go home, everyone was supposed to be glad that the Navi survived against the evils of man, but I was sitting their confused, thinking "The entire race is going to die and you want me to be happy?" It never made sense.
The people who made this movie firmly believe that there is no value in the human condition and the best thing we can do for the universe is die. These are the same people that took Star trek, a story about humanity overcoming its shortcomings and elevating themselves as a people, and made it about how humans be evil. I can't stand these kinds of films because they lack nuance and are as subtle as a machete to the face.
@@dudesomebody13 the avatar movies reveal that the Na'vi share the human condition. They're exactly like us as a people in every way, as far as the shared internality of personhood goes - except they also have a relationship to an actually existing planetary superconsciousness. The point is that we could be Na'vi if we wanted. We don't even need Eywa to do it, all you have to do is internalize the ideology presented, which is actually based on material principles.
Na'vi: Yay the sky people are gone! Commander Shepard: We don't know how many marines they have killed, dozens, hundreds, it's not important. What matters is this, NOT ONE MORE!
The idea that commander Shepard would endorse a private company genociding native people offense me. Like really, if human can only find the mineral there, the military would be in charge of the place, not a private corporation. As if humanity would let one company be in charge of all the oil in the world. Obviously it's not the only source, just the richest source. . Also energy crisis really? They have fucking anti-matter and nuclear fusion for power. Crisis my asses. More like mining super oil is cheaper than actually build shit. The plot and conclusion of the movie was weak, but the amount of 'and human totally shoud massacre the barbarian' HFY butthurt over what amount to greedy corporation trying to genocide native for profit and fail surprise me.
@@Zergking100 I apology for not conflating a fictional humanity that is either too stupid or wasteful with the actual humanity I am a part of. I cannot betray something I was not a part of or ally of. They have fucking anti-matter. If there is an energy crisis that converting matter to energy 1-1 cannot solve, Unobtainium would not save them. Nothing generate more energy than their mass converted into energy.
@@Miikudo I identify myself as a human of the real world, not a fictional one like the idiots in a movie I watched for fun called Avatar. Sorry for not conflating reality and fiction. Now, granted, one can sympathize or project themselves into a fictional humanity, but it's by no mean a requirement or obligation. If you read/watch enough fiction, you'd have realized how many fictional mankinds were evil POS or terminal stupid. It's just not possible to identify with such thing. P.S: Also it's not 'humanity'. It's just a corporation. It's not existential crisis, just 'I have to be content with fusion and anti-matter powerplants'.
@@Riverlia Remember, too, that the antimatter reactors aren't actually energy *sources* , they're glorified battery packs. The antimatter for them has to be produced using an actual source, meaning that Avatar's humanity not only mastered using antimatter for power and starship propulsion, but have the gargantuan energy generation infrastructure needed to actually deploy this tech on a mass scale. The idea that they can possibly be having an energy crisis is completely and utterly absurd.
I love how HISHE called this film out over how the ending would've been less bloody if the main negotiator wasn't a horny and procrastinating jackass and actually did his job and engaged in negotiation with them.
He was convinced there was absolutely nothing he could've possibly offered them *in exchange for their ancestral home* . It was perfectly logical for him to procrastinate at that point. That's how actual people act.
@@ottersirotten4290 First, he didn't "go straight to war". If you somehow managed to miss it, it was the *RDA* that started slaughtering civilians. They went to war, Jake just switched sides. Second, yes, he "didn't even try" (he actually tried really hard, hence the despair we see in that video log where he concludes there's nothing he can offer them) because he knew that admitting to his real task without having a proposal the Omaticaya could accept would make them cast him out, and he didn't want to be cast out. But he also knew what would happen if he didn't, and had no idea what to do. He was caught in between a rock and a hard place, with no way out, and it's a perfectly natural human reaction to withdraw and run away from the problem. It was 100% fitting the character *and* the stage of the hero's journey he was at.
I honestly consider both sides shades of grey, the humans are desperate, while Aiwa and the Na'vi just want to take care of themselves and their environment and are fighting against a threat invading their ecosystems
Na'vi in general will be fine it's the Omaticaya (forest people) who are antagonizing the humans and harbouring that treasonous Jake Sully who are looking to escalate this conflict into something global.
"ODST, ready to drop!" "You want a piece of me boy?" "Reactor online, sensors online, weapons online. All systems nominal." "Rebel one, standing by!" "Come on you apes, you want to live forever?" "RIP AND TEAR"
With that advance technology and the ability to travel through space... You would think they could just dig a hole under the forest and not deal with the Na'vi
It would be complicated and expensive ; Why would the company want to bother, if they thought they could just exterminate the locals if the need ever arose?
@paulzuk1468 What's more expensive? A war that costs human lives that have families so the company and government will have to pay money to like retirement pay or service pay. And all the expensive military trinkets and ships. Or Just dig a fkin hole.
It's curious that this story is like almost all "alien invasion" movies where humans win the aliens with the help of an alien. Man of Steel, Transformers, Thor, etc
In Superman's case, I'd say it's different because Clark was raised by humans as a human and he identifies as a human more or less. So it makes more sense in Superman's case because he is Human before he is Kryptonian.
Yea I dont really see humans as the good guys in this... we messed up our own planet... now we gotta take over this new one with sentient life already living on it, sure they aren't super advanced, but they have their own cultures and even today on earth we have relatively primitive groups of people living in places like the Amazon.... also... could they not have found the mineral on any of the other billions of planets or meteors without life on them? And if aliens just showed up on earth and said they needed literally every ounce of gold we had (or whatever else) to save their planet... people would go batshit... so nah I dont think we're supposed to be good guys in this
Jay Bee You assume that they would find Unobtainium on those other planets, or moons, or asteroids. How do you know they would? Why would the company risk the lives of the entire human species on the slim-to-none chance that they MIGHT find other sources of this incredibly rare resource, when they have an enormous source for it already found? They tried negotiating with the Pantorans, but the natives weren’t willing to do so in good faith and sparked the conflict. As far as mining a planet with sentient life on it, I personally don’t really count the Pantorans. They were never going to become more than they were in the film, and they would never evolve any further. Eywa would make sure of it. Are they sentient? Technically. But they were never going to do anything with that sentience. If you have a shovel, but never use it, then you may as well not have a shovel at all. In priorities, this is probably where we definitely differ, it I absolutely put the survival of the humans above that of the Pantorans. And that’s assuming that the Pantorans would necessarily have to all die for humans to get the Unobtainium, which is never established, or actually argued. There’s also the numbers game. Which should be saved, assuming that the Pantorans would need to be wiped out: a few million, or several billion?
@@a_channel2545 you ask how I know they would find unobtainium on one of the countless other planets, stars, meteors or comets in our universe... no clue... but for them to be able to find it on Pandora they obviously have a way to track and find it... But how do you know Pandorans wouldnt evolve on their own? Its taken humans millions of years to get to the point were at now and we have no connection to our surroundings or other living creatures... Pandorans... they're connected to all life on their planet... they seem to be a primitive form of a hivemind... like the collectors in Mass Effect or the zerg in Starcraft... a bunch of different species collectively working together to benefit all life under their Overmind, Eywa... that itself shows they are much more unified than humans could ever be... in fact us invading them brought them together even more... you bring up the point about shovels but they are already using complex tools... and they accept Jake and all the things he brings as well... they are willing to learn and adapt... that's evident by the way they started using guns/explosives later on in the movie as well as uniting all the individual tribes to fight off their invaders... and then they prove they aren't savages and are willing to come to peace by letting the invaders return home... I'm not saying that the company should or shouldn't have invaded... I'm just saying humans in this film... are not in the right... this is like watching War of the Worlds and being like... Welp it's not like humans could ever build machines of war that travel by lightning bolt so why not just give up the planet to the superior alien race... I mean who knows how many of them were relying on their invasion of Earth to go smoothly... You're assuming Pandorans will never become anything more than they are, but throughout the film there is multiple instances of them getting over their issues to take on new tasks or adapt to new situations...
What always confused me is why didn't humans mine in places without the Navi? There's only a few million of them and they live in tribes in specific regions so there probably vast regions of Pandora without any Navi in sight for hundreds of kilometres.
If i remember correctly the specific location they were trying to mine was under the massive tree and the reason why was because their was tons of unobtainium underneath the tree. They were mining in other places but they couldn’t pass up a massive deposit. Plus it was only this single tribe that they wanted to leave, it was pure coincidence that the other mining operations destroyed some random spiritual location. The massive tree wasn’t even one of these spiritual locations, it’s just a random tree the tribe decided to make their home in.
yeah buddy you are intentionally twisting the info from the movies. 1)all flora and fauna on the planet can and need to communicate via those large trees 2) reason been that their roots are the foundation of the planets entire neural network which appears to record and balance the evolution of the planets life 3) that unobtainium was what is responsible for said network 4) destroy network life dies there aswell, so humans would have destroyed 2 planets so they could have fancier ships, @@assaultghost00
I would assume that since unobtanium has such strange properties, the Navi would detect this and over hundreds of years indirectly build their spiritual faith around the unexplainable phenomena associated with unobtanium. This would cause Navi civilization to be generally centered around unobtainum deposits.
Since it is set in 22nd century, plastic would have been lighter and stronger than steel and add with matrix composite, you'll get light enough body armor resistant to their arrow's kinetic energy while pulse weapons shoots caseless ammo and have higher capacity. If those humans were Colonial Marines, the war will be even shorter.
Avatar 2 plot in a nutshell: Na'vi: Yay we finally won and there won't be war anymore! wait why there's two suns in the sk- Humans: *fortunate son intensifies*
Humans spend enough resources to re-terraform Earth, recycle all their waste and move a major portion of the population offworld to take petty revenge on some stone-age natives in another solar system? You know...that actually sounds about right.
CNN: "BREAKING. A small skirmish erupted on the planet of Pandora. The local Navi population has refused any diplomatic discussions." CNN 2 days later: "BREAKING. Navi defeated. Unobtanium mining set to begin in 1 month. "
The amount of effort and resources the RDA put into communicating with the Navi and reaching a peaceful resolution is insane. They built 100% functional Navi bodies and developed technology to remote control them. Keep in mind that even their mechs needed to be controlled by an actual human inside, despite that being very dangerous, so contorlling the Navi bodies was likely an extremely new and expensive technology. Humanity was basically dying, and they still invested so much for the comfort of an alien species. A species that instantly started killing them as soon as humans did something unusual to them.
Before that, he has linked to the alien planet-wide neural network, with processing capacity far surpassing his mind... for all we know, he might've got his mind hacked all the ways to Sunday at this moment.
Gabe Schmidt I mean to be fair his dick probably wasn’t working before having a fully functional body would be enough for me to betray my species if it means I can walk again
They were going to tear the tree down regardless. His job was to negotiate terms but he realized they would never leave. But he did not even try. He abandoned his mission
Honestly. Once Jake made the connection with Ewya. He realized it was impossible for them to Leave. The Value it holds is too much for anyone to leave.
So what ? The point of his job was to prevent deaths. If they won't leave, find another way, instead, he made a useless revolution that caused countless deaths
@@arnowisp6244 The spirit tree was not the same thing as Hometree which is the one they were trying to convince them to leave. Once Hometree was destroyed they sought shelter at the spirit tree and found a different home.
Covert Ranz In either legends or canon,the Empire had this thing called the World Devastator,which used strong magnets to rip apart a planet to collect resources.Theoretically,the Humans had enough technology to make something like that.
And back on earth written in the sky "test to see if humans are worthy of joining advanced galactic society of thousands of alien species results in failure. We could've solved all your problems but now we're going to isolate you in your solar system." Just like the space cash episode of South Park.
Bro, I don't care ... I just want the number of Avatars to increase to the level of humans and have them go to war with humans. It will be fun enjoy the war
Na'vi : We have beaten back the sky people, their millions of warriors are dead, although we have suffered too many losses, we may never recover- Commissar: Send in the next wave, With bayonets affixed.
Scientists believe that the cures for many diseases like cancer and alzhrimers could be found in the DNA of rainforest species. Agent orange, and the degradation of ecosystems in general, could have set us back centuries in medical science. Who knows what benefits to humanity could be found in the DNA of aliens. "Humanity first" is best achieved by preserving life wherever found, "purging xenos" hurts us much more than it helps, especially if they don't have the capacity to wage war on our home planet.
One thing that always stuck in my head when watching this movie is that it appears to be set in the near future where humans are finally colonizing the stars, that was always a happy thought to me while watching this.
It shouldn't. Humanity is colonizing the stars... to devour them. To repeat what happened on Earth. If these humans are allowed to continue, they will consume everything.
You know what would make Avatar's story a lot cooler, and move it away from being just Space-Ferngully? Have humanity realize we never really understood the symbiotic, controlling nature of Eywa and its relationship to the rest of Pandora's ecosystem. Not in an environmentalism-messaging way, but that Eywa isn't just a regulating system, but actively intelligent - and now it knows about us. In that scenario, the Avatar system means we were playing a *MUCH* more dangerous game than we realized. Humans use Avatars by way of a psionic link keyed between that particular human and that particular cloned Na'vi body. If Eywa does something similar with the Na'vi, then maybe the big blue cat-people aren't really a species of individuals the way humanity is, but are closer to semi-independent meat-puppets of Eywa. That could lead to some really interesting horror and paranoia-fueled thrillers as not the Na'vi, but _Eywa,_ a telepathic alien biological computer, starts trying to infiltrate the RDA and humanity in general - by using the same connection _we_ use to control our Avatars. Oh, that foot patrol that surprised the watch officer by returning after losing contact? That survey team that Search-And-Rescue picked up after their transport went down? That listening post that missed a routine check-in, and claimed a radio malfunction the next day? Physically they're fine - Medical cleared them to return to duty - but I dunno, there's been something just kind of "off" about those guys ever since they got back...
I would love for one of the movies to be a prequel to the first one explaining how the RDA set up their facilities and the initial conflict between the Na’vi, with Grace being the protagonist. That would be interesting…
Na'vi: "We won! We forced the humans off the planet-" Russians: *Playing Katyusha while firing Katyushas* Americans: *Fortunate Son with Rapid Insertion*
Fabulous Falcon I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t want to attract the covenant to that would you really want them to know how to make a planet that can literally be instinctually made the hate humans
*snicker* Ok, this may make me a bad person, but my thought went: Diplomat: "Alright, we're sorry. We shouldn't have tried to chop down your tree with machine guns. Here, have some blankets as repayment."
@@thebighurt2495 dude...too soon :-) But you know what...you are kind of right... I mean if we can replicate their bodies I am sure that creating a virus which will affect them and only them would not be hard. And we would still have very nice planet for our miners to work on. And I just want to point out that there is one person who would be responsible for their deaths...Jake. I want you all to consider that during his time with the Navi he never and I mean not once tried to explain why humans are there and that maybe they could move their tribe a bit to allow mining. His mission was to establish contact and he did...nothing.
Three weeks? Try three months, it's a planetary siege bombardment, it's not like the unubtainiem is going any where, scorched earth that shit then mine a dead rock, easy, not to mention, one jungle rock among the stars, probably means many more, not losing much except the aywa thing, which scientifically is significant in a "what the fack is that and where did come from" kind of way, after all, humans lost the initial battle due to aywa, literally psychic connection to animals. Just think about how useful such a power weaponized could be, truely the greatest prize was not the minerals. Humans definitely need to go back and conquer aywa, could very well be the secret to ever lasting survival.
"Spare us your pity, alien. You gush about your connection with nature, your primal wisdom, but what has it brought you? "Where are your marvels of engineering? Your voyages of discovery? Your great insight into the nature of the universe? Even at our basest, when we dressed as you do, dwelt as you do, hunted as you do, lived as you do, we did more than merely survive. We built wonders. We made great journeys. We forged epics. You have not. "You speak so proudly of the plugs dangling from your skulls, little realizing that they are but strings and you puppets. What little you have accomplished you attribute to the wisdom of your goddess, who is nothing but the voices of your dead echoing for all eternity.

"We have come to your world in search of resources. Whether your actions drive us back or we take what we want and move on, the outcome is the same. We will depart from your wretched planet, leaving you behind. And in a thousand years, you will not have changed from this contact with another world. You will remain in your trees, hunting your prey, communing with your goddess, until your sun burns out and your world dies. "And above your tomb, the stars will belong to us..."

What people don't realize is living off the land, hunting and gathering... it was not our destiny to remain that way. When people get all upity about what humanity did to the Indians you have to sit back and think, was the answer living in tribes, being decimated by drought, watching wolves eat your kids, watching other tribes attack and canibalize your people the answer? That was Indian life pre colonization.
In the grand scheme of things the RDA was incredibly restrained and even while under attack set up schools and tried diplomacy first before it escalated.
@@keithziegler8881 Ok, but the RDA _wasn't_ "in their house", they were occupying *unsettled land.* They purposely sat themselves down in a place that would minimize hostile contact with the Na'Vi. If they had begun with destroying the tree and harvesting the unobtanium beneath, (before exhausting other, more peaceful options,) then their actions could be considered on-par with those of Christopher Columbus. (Who was tried for his crimes after his return to Spain.)
@@keithziegler8881 Did the Navi rule the planet? Was there a worldwide government to whom the humans could apply for consent to land on the planet? No? Then, if there was no one to ask, no proper avenue for the acquisition of consent, no consent is needed. If someone wants to enter my house, there is a proper way; it's called a doorbell, or a knock on the door. Same thing for entry into a country - you apply for permission. In the case of the Navi, they had NO planetary authority, not even a local one. So being there violated no "property rights", since they didn't believe in such things anyway. And the humans tried the nice approach, they tried to integrate with them, they tried to teach them, etc. But the Navi were insistent on their xenophobic hostility, and so...in essence...they started it.
You might have missed the science guy who helped designed Pandora. He made it clear that both humans and Na'vi were bio-engineered for their respective planets. That's why the Na'vi have only one pair of hands, and no second night-vision eyes. I think you can still find his documents on the net.

@Ricardo Santos riiight. im gonna pull out my Adam Sandler quote card here because i spent way too much time trying to fathom the amount of wrong in your statement and found that... "i award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul"
@Ricardo Santos right and he said the humans can bring enlightenment or some shit. I have this same philosophy about african tribes or hunter gatherer tribes in general, they didnt ask to "advance" and if it aint broke, dont force them to fix it. I hate the fact that there's people out there that go," oh no, look at those africans. They're hunters and gatherers and are doing ok for themselves but they are so poor they dont have our technology " fuck off and leave them alone.
@Ricardo Santos Yeah, just tell a couple billion humans that despite there being a solution they have to die because they had a chance and fucked it up, see if you convince them. Living beings have the natural objective of self preservation of their species. If nuking some alien natives ensures that objective then that's the obvious route to follow.
@@jcdenton1868 Agriculture? As in the litteral domesticated version of nature humans made so they could live easier lives? That worse then the real deal?

I dont see why the humans just didnt use nukes and hidrogen bombs, do that and then go in and mine afterwards, but try and use them in a way that radiation isn't lethal
In an intresting way, the Na'vi will be in a "stone age" forever due to the three laws of Eywa they follow: You shall not set stone upon stone. Neither shall you use the turning wheel. Nor use the metals of the ground. I think #3 is why they got so upset...

Here's the funny thing about Avatar, there's nothing the Navi can do if the RDA just decided to glass the planet from orbit and harvest the minerals afterward.
@Kevin Warburton If the Alternative is the death of Earth, i dont see any Problems
@Kevin Warburton You need more energy to send a space ship to the next stellar system at 90% of lightspeed than to change the orbit of and asteroid. they just had to dismantle one cargo ship and strip its thruster on an asteroid, actually just a cargo ship throwing random rock from orbit would be enough to cause destruction on scale similar to nuclear weapon.
Guys you don't need to go anywhere to do it. Stay in system, find big space rock, shove big space rock into pandora at moderate(by cosmic scale) speeds, profit.
@n00bMaster69 The mountains float because they're electromagnetic, not because of the atmosphere. Unobtanium is a superconductor which is why the humans want it.
Anyone who can travel at even a fraction of the speed of light (Like the RDA) is capable of 'glassing' a planet, fly your ship at the target and release a projectile - Then slow down. Atmosphere / Magnetism would not be able to stop the projectile. The atmosphere of Earth couldn't stop the meteor that killed the dinosaurs, a projectile going a fraction of the speed of light would be even more powerful than that. Magnetism wouldn't be a problem either and if it was you could just launch a non-magnetic projectile anyways.
This is actually a big plot hole in any sci-fi work that portrays the use of light-speed travel, a good example being Starwars (Which is why it was weird to see them acknowledge it was possible in The Last Jedi, when Holdo sacrificed herself). Light-speed travel is stupidly easy to weaponize and stupidly hard to defend against. If you are capable of it, you can completely shit on anyone who isn't. This is one of the many reasons why the human race wouldn't stand a chance if a hostile alien species ever attacked us.

"If we became too inteligent enough and advance that we can teraform other planet, why not teraform earth to become earth again.."
Because that would require resources that are no longer abundant enough on Earth.
While a possibility in the _far_ longterm, terraforming is not viable for even interplanetary settlement; there is a lot that goes into a biosphere and creating a stable one from scratch takes both the time to just get the full set of organisms in place and the time to balance them all sustainably. Just because a planet can be colonized quickly does not mean it can be terraformed quickly, and on top of that the energy required to purify an atmosphere with too much of a fatal chemical in it is far more than that required to simply dump some new chemicals into a shortage (as if it were that easy to begin with).
@@LepidoliteMica I think Horizon: Zero Dawn has a realistic take on terraforming.
Because no Earth can sustain 20+ billion humans.
This is like a perpetual motion which is IMPOSSIBLE. you can't use the same resources on the same dying to planet to save it.
At the end of Avatar, Eywa actually directs the wildlife of Pandora to attack humanity and drive them off. Scarier still, it does so without directly connecting with them. That’s a Gravemind level of intelligence.
Nuke it from orbit it’s the only way to be sure.
So Eywa is the colonial brain of the planet? In a sense, it's like microbes trying to mine a human brain for molecular metals. I say we mine it anyways.

The craziest thing in Avatar is that humans had body production technology and saw Navi having permanent mind transfer technology. And NOBODY realized that it literally means physical immortality.
Yeah because their quarterly statement did not include a line for "Making humans immortal", so they didn't give a shit.

The humans trying to understand and claim ey'was mind-transferring powers should've been their goal. Could've easily made it work too, by simply having the underwater trees be unique and central in understanding it.
Sigh...
Human Can't connect to the spirit tree
If you can afford to have a new body made to transfer your consciousness into. The procedure would more than likely be outrageously expensive and only reserved for the richest/most influential humans, and you'd have to give the new body time to grow, and what if something happens to you in the meantime? What if you die or experience brain death while waiting for your new body to be ready? The Avatar bodies must've been injected with some compound to stop the accelerated growth rate, what longterm effects does that have on other bodily systems?

Because if Unobtanium was as important as it's stated in the movie, that conflict would not have ended where the movie did.

My biggest complaint with the movie was that Jake had one mission, negotiate a fair mining treaty. However, as soon as Neytiri shows up, Jake completely forgets his mission and never once brings it up again. He gets his pony and his flying dinosaur, he gets his alien "strange", and winds up going native and betraying everyone at the base and back on Earth.
He had one thing to do and he fucked that up.
Exactly. He abandoned all of humamity for a piece of alien ass.
@@jackie520 No, so he could walk again. Even when the colonel had his papers ready for the surgery, he chose to go native.
@@jackie520 no he abandoned humans because they deserved it
@@@charissawilkinson9270 first off, your two comments contradict each other. If it was just so he could walk, he could have completed his mission and gotten the surgery.
That being said, his reasons for betraying his species have multiple possible motivations. There was the romantic relationship with the tall blue hottie; there was his desire to walk again, which he was able to do as a Na'vi, and then there's the motivation for revenge against the establishment for discarding him after he was paralyzed in the service of the military. Each reason individually would be a powerful motivator... put them together and it's no wonder that he chose to do what he did.
But that's all beside the point. The real reason is "white man bad, native good." Hollywood's overarching motivation for everything is politically correct environmentalism and social justice, which they laid on so thick in this movie you needed one of those SCBA's to breath in the movie theatre. It's kinda funny that native Americans would be offended by this movie... James Cameron bathes himself and movie-goers in his racial guilt over the settling (conquest?) of America.

The biggest problem I had with Avatar wasn’t the Dancing with the wolves in space storyline (although that did make me roll my eyes quite a few times) or the Anti-Humanity theme (it didn’t even feel THAT Anti-Human upon rewatching it, more Human critical then anything) it was the naive idealization of Nature and severe Vilification of Science and Technology, many people have gotten the idea in their heads that Mother Nature is beautiful and fair and that we need to live in Harmony and Balance with her when in reality “Harmony” and “Balance” are Human concepts and Mother Nature is an ugly and mean and hateful bitch who’s only goal is to weed out those she deems “unfit” to survive (and usually they’re the ones who deserve to survive the most), but Technology let’s us spit in her face and say “fuck you bitch! We’re doing what we want from now on.” and this movie pretty much says that we should give that up in favor of going back to living as Hunter-Gatherers who rarely live to 20 and have to have 10+ kids because most of them will die before they reach walking age, fuck that I would rather put up with Climate Change.
- "(it didn’t even feel THAT Anti-Human upon rewatching it, more Human critical then anything)"
I know right? I'm tired as hell of the "HUmaNiTy bAd!!!" narrative, but Avatar (in the MANY times i've rewatched it) *never* gave me that vibe.
They are made the bad guys, sure, but they're still the most badass depiction of humans i've seen (while still being fairly grounded, which is why i enjoy it), and it doesn't feel like some blatant political message. (they're simply the bad guys of the movie)
Don't even get me started on the second movie though... It took every mistake the first DIDN'T make and doubled down on them... Even forced in an evil white guy (with a good brown assistant) the anti-whites could rub one out to... At least Quaritch was badass and depicted respectfully, and was by no means used as a political or racist statement.
Quaritch is still great though, and his relationship with the wild kid (his son) showed a lot of potential. (and showed some nuance with the kid being scared of an enraged neytiri)
And yeah, the "nature is wonderful" thing has to stop, haha.
I love nature, but nature is chaos. Pure evil, in many cases. These people know nothing about nature.
Just watched a Joe Rogan clip with Forrest Gallante. He said they visited a village in the Amazon and the village asked for medical assistance from the medic in the group
Long story short, they gave a 3 year old kid with bad asthma an inhaler. But after it ran out he would probably wouldn't live to see adulthood
"Mother Nature is beautiful and fair" exactly! mother nature and cruel and savage and that you have to be equally cruel and savage as her to survive it, that's what tree huggers fail to understand
Nature doesnt have a goal. It just is. You can have a fucked up genetic disease that makes you unfit to survive after 30s but if you survive until you reproduce you "won" in the genetic game. Also climate change entails more than just climate. If it changes too much and youre not able to adapt you die so yeah equilibrium is the best choice
That's what those street preachers want us to do, go back to living in huts and praise god all day.
Not to mention that the protagonist never actually tried to accomplish his job in establishing negotiations about mining with the Navi - he was too busy falling in love. The avatar program was created to try to avoid conflict, not to create it. While he was having the time of his life on the personal level, the time for using negotiation to avoid conflict was being wasted. Imagine if he had instead helped negotiate peaceful co-existence, before things went bad...
Humans did not need to move en mass to the inhospitable Pandora, they just needed ores, and potentially could have traded other goods and services, which would have saved not only lives on both sides, but would have been cheaper than war and thus please even cold hearted bean counters.
Humans would have wiped them out all the same.
@@paulbeen459 Humans in this fictional story could have wiped them out from day one, but didn't, instead investing in schools, and then in the avatar technology, specifically attempting a peaceful co-existence. Humans needed the mineral (in small quantities which could be shipped via expensive interstellar transport), but did not need the planet or it's life.
Since it's fiction, there is no "true" or "false" answer to your assertion. Your assertion is what in the real world would be called a counter-factual, the path one can only speculate upon since it's not the factual path our history followed; in a fictional universe, this 'alternate history' is even more vague - the author could have written in any other way one can name.
But it's more logically consistent with the fictional universe as presented so far, for humans to co-exist with the Navi.
I think that in essence you are saying that if you had written the story, your humans would have wiped our your Navi, and we cannot deny that.

@@CrashPCcz Your calling yourself shitty?
Also, there are a couple of things the movie fails to recognize.
1- They wouldn't need Jake to do anything if the RDA would opt for shaft mining instead of pit mining, which they obviously had the tech to do.
2- Any civilization that has the capacity for near relativistic speeds will likely have the tech to no longer need fossil fuels, like nuclear fusion or at least miniaturized nuclear fission. The Earth and any tech they employ shouldn't be power by fossil fuels which would be costly to ship to Pandora.
3- Early in the movie it mentions that Pandora is smaller than Earth and has less gravity. Although the Na'avi were taller, they should be weaker than an Earth-born human who grew up in stronger gravity.
4- Because of the difficulty of getting support from the Earth, the colonists of Pandora would need the support and friendship from the local population. So, instead of killing them all, the humans would need to learn to coexist so they could survive and would be far more proactive than is even shown in developing their relationship with the local population.
All in all, this movie is simply James Cameron's attempt to rewrite the history of colonization but exposes his own severe lack of understanding of the subject. He deifies primitavism, forgetting that modernity has made his whole career possible. I'm sorry, but I like AC, modern medicine, and streets not reeking of manure.
Humanity is a young race that yearns for greatness. We're just going through our awkward adolescence. We won't always be stuck in this same place. We will advance beyond this.
Cameron just reduced us to parasites. Smh
if they had so much antimatter then they could use tiny and mostly safe amounts of antimatter for power generation
Also i highly agree with point 3 humans vs navi would be dwarves vs elves and I imagine a human just carrying a navi like a barbell squat
you're telling me, edwin, that i could beat the shit out of a full grown blue monkey? THATS BLOODY AWESOME!
I mean, we know that now. But yeah, if they just went the diplomatic route, they could’ve gotten all the Unobtanium they needed.
@@JacksonVoetBut nah, really have to make human the stupidest and meanest thing in the movie just to make the plot even slightly viable
Giant blue smurfs: yay we beat the humans with bows and arrows.
Humans sometimes later: uhhuh okay cool. Here look at this, it's called a thermonuclear warhead.
Or drones. Lots and lots of drones.
All the humans would have really needed to conquer the smurfs was a commanding force that didn't consist of incompetent morons that relied on brute force tactics over competent leadership. Besides, the only reason the aliens won the "war" in the first place was because the plot was under the assumption that the humans would have immediately buggered off after their leader was killed. And instead of getting the more logical and satisfying ending of a larger military force showing up and bombing their dung huts into oblivion the evil Earth forces piss off and the main character gets to bone his overrated alien waifu. How absolutely boring.
With antimatter-based energy production, you can just fling a few stellar pebbles at the moon at relativistic speeds.
Makes harvesting the metal afterwards easier too.

Na'vi teaching the final battle of the movie - The largest and most important battle in the history of our people that shall never be rivaled.
Humanity teaching the final battle of the movie - Alright class, today we will learn about the minor skirmish that preceded the full scale invasion of Pandora that led to the lobotomization of 90% of Na'vi to work in the Unobtanium mines.
That's not how lobotomies work. If unobtanium is really humanity's last hope, generally, the military would be leading because thats usually how inter-national relations work. Private companies aren't allowed to controlled certain markets that could lead to military intervention. Either the military attacks in the movie are illegal and no one is gonna be sending more forces or there is no proper military to send in the first place and that physical forces sent was the most that could be sent.
@@noconaroubideaux9423 Its never expressly stated, and forgive me if I'm wrong I've only ever seen the movie so if there's comics or books that clarify my apologies, that the RDA is just a company. Even now groups like Amazon have amassed an immense power in our day to day lives to the point that they could easily evolve to being treated like nation states. And the lobotomy thing was a quick joke about the removal of the Navi's free will.
It wouldn't be that hard to selectively glass the resource nodes and mine the unobtanium wearing exosuits.

Yeah but aliens aren't people, you can't have a 'no good side in war' if the enemies are actually legitimately abominations that need to be exterminated. Both sides have to be human.
Jake Sully: This is how it's done. When people are sittin' on shit that you want, you make 'em your enemy. Then you're justified in taking it.

When I first watched Avatar, I never understood why I was expected to cheer for the Navi, the entire reason that we had even bothered contacting the Navi was for the survival of the entire human race. When the humans were all leaving to board their ships and go home, everyone was supposed to be glad that the Navi survived against the evils of man, but I was sitting their confused, thinking "The entire race is going to die and you want me to be happy?" It never made sense.
It doesnt
Well there are 20bil humans
The people who made this movie firmly believe that there is no value in the human condition and the best thing we can do for the universe is die. These are the same people that took Star trek, a story about humanity overcoming its shortcomings and elevating themselves as a people, and made it about how humans be evil. I can't stand these kinds of films because they lack nuance and are as subtle as a machete to the face.
@@dudesomebody13 the avatar movies reveal that the Na'vi share the human condition. They're exactly like us as a people in every way, as far as the shared internality of personhood goes - except they also have a relationship to an actually existing planetary superconsciousness.

Like really, if human can only find the mineral there, the military would be in charge of the place, not a private corporation. As if humanity would let one company be in charge of all the oil in the world. Obviously it's not the only source, just the richest source. .
Also energy crisis really? They have fucking anti-matter and nuclear fusion for power. Crisis my asses. More like mining super oil is cheaper than actually build shit.

Now, granted, one can sympathize or project themselves into a fictional humanity, but it's by no mean a requirement or obligation. If you read/watch enough fiction, you'd have realized how many fictional mankinds were evil POS or terminal stupid. It's just not possible to identify with such thing.
P.S: Also it's not 'humanity'. It's just a corporation. It's not existential crisis, just 'I have to be content with fusion and anti-matter powerplants'.
@@Riverlia Remember, too, that the antimatter reactors aren't actually energy *sources* , they're glorified battery packs. The antimatter for them has to be produced using an actual source, meaning that Avatar's humanity not only mastered using antimatter for power and starship propulsion, but have the gargantuan energy generation infrastructure needed to actually deploy this tech on a mass scale.
The idea that they can possibly be having an energy crisis is completely and utterly absurd.

Second, yes, he "didn't even try" (he actually tried really hard, hence the despair we see in that video log where he concludes there's nothing he can offer them) because he knew that admitting to his real task without having a proposal the Omaticaya could accept would make them cast him out, and he didn't want to be cast out. But he also knew what would happen if he didn't, and had no idea what to do.
He was caught in between a rock and a hard place, with no way out, and it's a perfectly natural human reaction to withdraw and run away from the problem. It was 100% fitting the character *and* the stage of the hero's journey he was at.

It would be complicated and expensive ; Why would the company want to bother, if they thought they could just exterminate the locals if the need ever arose?
People prefer to kill rather than to spend money on other solutions

What's more expensive?
A war that costs human lives that have families so the company and government will have to pay money to like retirement pay or service pay. And all the expensive military trinkets and ships.

Open pit mining is fairly simple. Shaft mining is not so simple. There's a lot of willful blindness on the technical side of anything.
It's curious that this story is like almost all "alien invasion" movies where humans win the aliens with the help of an alien. Man of Steel, Transformers, Thor, etc
In Superman's case, I'd say it's different because Clark was raised by humans as a human and he identifies as a human more or less. So it makes more sense in Superman's case because he is Human before he is Kryptonian.

Yea I dont really see humans as the good guys in this... we messed up our own planet... now we gotta take over this new one with sentient life already living on it, sure they aren't super advanced, but they have their own cultures and even today on earth we have relatively primitive groups of people living in places like the Amazon.... also... could they not have found the mineral on any of the other billions of planets or meteors without life on them? And if aliens just showed up on earth and said they needed literally every ounce of gold we had (or whatever else) to save their planet... people would go batshit... so nah I dont think we're supposed to be good guys in this
Jay Bee You assume that they would find Unobtainium on those other planets, or moons, or asteroids. How do you know they would? Why would the company risk the lives of the entire human species on the slim-to-none chance that they MIGHT find other sources of this incredibly rare resource, when they have an enormous source for it already found? They tried negotiating with the Pantorans, but the natives weren’t willing to do so in good faith and sparked the conflict. As far as mining a planet with sentient life on it, I personally don’t really count the Pantorans. They were never going to become more than they were in the film, and they would never evolve any further. Eywa would make sure of it. Are they sentient? Technically. But they were never going to do anything with that sentience. If you have a shovel, but never use it, then you may as well not have a shovel at all.
In priorities, this is probably where we definitely differ, it I absolutely put the survival of the humans above that of the Pantorans. And that’s assuming that the Pantorans would necessarily have to all die for humans to get the Unobtainium, which is never established, or actually argued. There’s also the numbers game. Which should be saved, assuming that the Pantorans would need to be wiped out: a few million, or several billion?
@@a_channel2545 you ask how I know they would find unobtainium on one of the countless other planets, stars, meteors or comets in our universe... no clue... but for them to be able to find it on Pandora they obviously have a way to track and find it...
But how do you know Pandorans wouldnt evolve on their own? Its taken humans millions of years to get to the point were at now and we have no connection to our surroundings or other living creatures... Pandorans... they're connected to all life on their planet... they seem to be a primitive form of a hivemind... like the collectors in Mass Effect or the zerg in Starcraft... a bunch of different species collectively working together to benefit all life under their Overmind, Eywa... that itself shows they are much more unified than humans could ever be... in fact us invading them brought them together even more... you bring up the point about shovels but they are already using complex tools... and they accept Jake and all the things he brings as well... they are willing to learn and adapt... that's evident by the way they started using guns/explosives later on in the movie as well as uniting all the individual tribes to fight off their invaders... and then they prove they aren't savages and are willing to come to peace by letting the invaders return home...
I'm not saying that the company should or shouldn't have invaded... I'm just saying humans in this film... are not in the right... this is like watching War of the Worlds and being like... Welp it's not like humans could ever build machines of war that travel by lightning bolt so why not just give up the planet to the superior alien race... I mean who knows how many of them were relying on their invasion of Earth to go smoothly...
You're assuming Pandorans will never become anything more than they are, but throughout the film there is multiple instances of them getting over their issues to take on new tasks or adapt to new situations...
What always confused me is why didn't humans mine in places without the Navi? There's only a few million of them and they live in tribes in specific regions so there probably vast regions of Pandora without any Navi in sight for hundreds of kilometres.
If i remember correctly the specific location they were trying to mine was under the massive tree and the reason why was because their was tons of unobtainium underneath the tree. They were mining in other places but they couldn’t pass up a massive deposit. Plus it was only this single tribe that they wanted to leave, it was pure coincidence that the other mining operations destroyed some random spiritual location. The massive tree wasn’t even one of these spiritual locations, it’s just a random tree the tribe decided to make their home in.
yeah buddy you are intentionally twisting the info from the movies.
1)all flora and fauna on the planet can and need to communicate via those large trees

I would assume that since unobtanium has such strange properties, the Navi would detect this and over hundreds of years indirectly build their spiritual faith around the unexplainable phenomena associated with unobtanium. This would cause Navi civilization to be generally centered around unobtainum deposits.

The amount of effort and resources the RDA put into communicating with the Navi and reaching a peaceful resolution is insane.
They built 100% functional Navi bodies and developed technology to remote control them. Keep in mind that even their mechs needed to be controlled by an actual human inside, despite that being very dangerous, so contorlling the Navi bodies was likely an extremely new and expensive technology.
Humanity was basically dying, and they still invested so much for the comfort of an alien species. A species that instantly started killing them as soon as humans did something unusual to them.

You know what would make Avatar's story a lot cooler, and move it away from being just Space-Ferngully?
Have humanity realize we never really understood the symbiotic, controlling nature of Eywa and its relationship to the rest of Pandora's ecosystem. Not in an environmentalism-messaging way, but that Eywa isn't just a regulating system, but actively intelligent - and now it knows about us. In that scenario, the Avatar system means we were playing a *MUCH* more dangerous game than we realized.
Humans use Avatars by way of a psionic link keyed between that particular human and that particular cloned Na'vi body. If Eywa does something similar with the Na'vi, then maybe the big blue cat-people aren't really a species of individuals the way humanity is, but are closer to semi-independent meat-puppets of Eywa. That could lead to some really interesting horror and paranoia-fueled thrillers as not the Na'vi, but _Eywa,_ a telepathic alien biological computer, starts trying to infiltrate the RDA and humanity in general - by using the same connection _we_ use to control our Avatars.
Oh, that foot patrol that surprised the watch officer by returning after losing contact? That survey team that Search-And-Rescue picked up after their transport went down? That listening post that missed a routine check-in, and claimed a radio malfunction the next day? Physically they're fine - Medical cleared them to return to duty - but I dunno, there's been something just kind of "off" about those guys ever since they got back...

And I just want to point out that there is one person who would be responsible for their deaths...Jake. I want you all to consider that during his time with the Navi he never and I mean not once tried to explain why humans are there and that maybe they could move their tribe a bit to allow mining. His mission was to establish contact and he did...nothing.
Neutron bombs the place, from high orbit.....
Avatar 2 should begin with said bombardment, with that corperate guy watching from his ship in high orbit.
Three weeks? Try three months, it's a planetary siege bombardment, it's not like the unubtainiem is going any where, scorched earth that shit then mine a dead rock, easy, not to mention, one jungle rock among the stars, probably means many more, not losing much except the aywa thing, which scientifically is significant in a "what the fack is that and where did come from" kind of way, after all, humans lost the initial battle due to aywa, literally psychic connection to animals. Just think about how useful such a power weaponized could be, truely the greatest prize was not the minerals. Humans definitely need to go back and conquer aywa, could very well be the secret to ever lasting survival.

(Who was tried for his crimes after his return to Spain.)
@@keithziegler8881 Did the Navi rule the planet? Was there a worldwide government to whom the humans could apply for consent to land on the planet? No? Then, if there was no one to ask, no proper avenue for the acquisition of consent, no consent is needed. If someone wants to enter my house, there is a proper way; it's called a doorbell, or a knock on the door. Same thing for entry into a country - you apply for permission. In the case of the Navi, they had NO planetary authority, not even a local one. So being there violated no "property rights", since they didn't believe in such things anyway.
And the humans tried the nice approach, they tried to integrate with them, they tried to teach them, etc. But the Navi were insistent on their xenophobic hostility, and so...in essence...they started it.
You might have missed the science guy who helped designed Pandora. He made it clear that both humans and Na'vi were bio-engineered for their respective planets. That's why the Na'vi have only one pair of hands, and no second night-vision eyes. I think you can still find his documents on the net.
