Yep another post about Avatar. And rather than saying what's wrong with the film, I'm actually gonna say how the film (particularly the ending) can be improved. So I made this comic. Truly, this is how the movie really should have ended. Would have saved those soldiers a hell of a lot of time. 
 
For those who can't read the text very well:
PANEL ONE: These orbital images show the hostiles' number have gone from a couple of hundred to over 2,000 in one day, and more are pouring in. By next week it could be 20,000. Then they'll be overrunning our perimeter here. We can't wait. Our only security lies in pre-emptive attack. We will fight terror with terror. And how are we going to do that?
 
PANEL TWO: We will nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
 
PANEL FIVE: Damn that's good coffee.

I was saying it after the movie ended to my mates - What's stopping the guy from nuking it now that they lost. It's only human nature to nuke it, right?

That ending looks like a satire of how Alien vs Predator: Requiem ended.

@DarkGamerOO7: Never saw that one. Did they nuke something in that movie?

It would make all the alien metaphor for oil radioactive.

@Bones8677:

Yea. A town had an alien infection and a predator rampaging around.

The ending was "Nuke the town". Folks got away in a helicopter though and some pred tech was salvaged from their crash site.

I was expecting one of those "How it should have ended" videos.

 
But this is just as good. Infact, this SHOULD be made into one of those HISHE videos. Seems perfect for it.

Maybe they don't have the technology to nuke Pandora from space.  I'm sure there are a number of reasons that could be given for it...  Really, the only thing I found stupid about the movie was that the huge robot the 'bad dude' (name not significant enough to remember) was riding in, near the end of the movie, also had a giant knife attached to it.  For some reason, that just seems really weird to me.

Apparently unmanned drones don't exist in the future, but they sure as hell have unmanned bulldozers?

For real. They have unmanned BLUE PEOPLE. 
 
Could have used those instead.

well avatar two can be something like that. in the beginning they nuke the avatars and then two survive and makes a casino. they reproduce to make more to work at the casino. the armory people end up getting a gambling problem.
 
the avatars make an AAA for gambling problems. they make more money.

I really hope Avatar 2 is set on a different world and the orbital bombardment of Pandora is mentioned. I also hope Avatar 2 doesn't suck like the first one did and five times as much money is spent on animating purple dog people.

Actually the thought had occurred to me that a nuke wouldn't have harmed the unobtainium, seeing as how the huge deposit they wanted was under the giant tree. At this point in the story, they had already blown down the tree, and all the Na'vi had refuged at that sacred grove, away from the huge deposit of macguffin. So yeah, dropping a nuke would have made perfect sense.

If its anything like any other fuel, its highly flammable. And being some kind of miracle supercoal, I imagine its incredibly flammable. Avatar has a lot of stupid bullshit plot moments, I don't think this is one of them.

@ryanwho: I don't recall the mineral being used as a fuel source, the movie did a poor job at really explaining anything that happens. ^.^  
 
But like I said, the Na'vi were away from the deposit so there wouldn't have been any minerals to be harmed. ;P
