I don't know, not to be nit-picky, but how am I supposed to believe a future human society can fly special forces to a far away planet and mind-control a genetically modified species, but still can't get a paralyzed dude to walk again on the cheap?
Maybe health care just sucks that bad in the future?
- anigbrowl 17y agoThat's like asking why the people in Star Wars speak English :) Although this obvious plot query is nominally handled in the film, the real reason is that Cameron is using his epic canvas to present an exciting metaphor for how he sees the world, hence the object of desire (over which the conflicts take place) being dubbed 'unobtainium'.
- mtalantikite 17y agoWell, yes and no :) Characters aren't motivated in Star Wars to defeat the Empire so that they can be rewarded with the ability to speak English again, but one of the major motivating factors of this story is giving the protagonist the ability to walk again if accepts and succeeds in his task. I don't really know anything about the plot, but it seems like I should be expecting a plot turn where the protagonist is faced with the dilemma of turning on his peers and his mission for love's sake, or doing something morally suspect so he can walk again. Just a guess, I really know nothing about the movie.
