The movie should have ended with the aliens being slaughtered and Jake being shipped back to Earth for trial. Now that would have been depressing.

The movie was amazing, anyone who says it was over-hyped doesnt know what they are talking about, Cameron doesn't come out with movies often but when he does they are amazing.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

The ISV Venture Star is one of a twelve vehicle fleet which provides commercial space transportation between Earth and Alpha Centauri. As with the other ships of the “Capital Star” class, it was designed to carry a large payload of cargo and passengers to the worlds of the Alpha Centauri star system, especially the rich world of Pandora. The ships of this class are not exploration ships, they are commercial freighters. The ship's mission is to be part of an endlessly looping supply chain which enables the exploitation of the indigenous resources of Pandora. The ISV Venture Star, and the other ships of its class, represent the highest technological achievement in human history. Only the great need for unobtanium and the energy which it allows human civilization to produce could justify the cost of creating these vessels. In fact, the unobtanium itself enabled the creation of this class of ISV’s. It is used in the superconducting magnet arrays which contain and direct the energy of the matter-antimatter annihilation which propels the ship. Without unobtanium, interstellar commerce on this scale would not be possible. Unobtanium is not only the key to Earth’s energy needs in the 22nd century, but it is the enabler of interstellar travel and the establishment of a truly spacefaring civilization.

I listened to a James Cameron interview and he stated that it was never explicitly stated in the movie, but the unobtainium was needed to solve an energy crisis on Earth. He could done better to flush this part out of the story because I didn't notice that at first. I also have friends that believe the reason they want the unobtainium was because it was worth a lot of money. This is one of many gripes I have with the story, but I'm probably gonna get crucified speaking ill of THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE!!!

The reason they want unobtainium is because its worth allot of money. The reason it is worth allot of money is because its the salvation of earth.

And a lot of the meaning as to why they're there is lost when you only go part way with the explanation is what I'm saying. It could very well be a valuable mineral and yet not be the salvation of Earth.

Well the reason its so vital is that it is nessesary for interstellar travel. Without it humans are stranded on a crumbling Earth.

Personally, I thought this was the best movie I've ever seen, but when I looked up what other people thought about it, (Most agree that it's 10/10 ofc) I found someone who wrote this:

It's a shame that few people are willing to look beyond the oh-so-pretty planet and special effects and see what this movie is all about. It's an indictment of America as a power-hungry, cruel and debased war monger. This is pure Anti-America Propaganda. It made my stomach turn.

WTF!?

Whoa, what the fuck, hold on a second there. They're making an Ender's Game movie?

edit: oh shit, they are http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ender's_Game_(film)#Film (well...sort of, it's in pre-production now it seems)

Or the only one that starts wars.


America is just a really good example of human nature. Hence the tie in with the movie and references (Vietnam, Iraq etc..) If James Cameron had made this movie in Roman times you could bet there would be some Pax Romana references.
