i have to say ii rooted for no one. Since this movie was terrible imo. I thought WOW this movie is beautiful but wheres the GOOD plot, characters and everything. Oh yeah that all drowned with titanic.
The humans were made to be unlikeable, genocide-loving, pricks. The Na'vi were made out to be a Mary Sue civilization. It really is unfair in that regard. Plus if it was a single company that was trying to obain that mineral, wouldn't that imply that the marines were mercs? I highly doubt that, if this was an actual military force that represents Earth, they would act the way they did and only be made up of Americans.
OT: I liked the Humanss more than the Na'vi, but I just wanted to see both sides be devastated beyond repair. Sadly the movie failed in that regard, and instead of showing a truelly horrific sight of the consequences of invading another planet, we get a generic hollywood ending.

All hail the human overlords!Demented Teddy said:
OT: I didn't really root for anyone. The humans were sometimes assholes, and at the same time I found the Navy(or however the fuck they're called)somewhat annoying. Keep in mind I saw this movie on a 16 hour bus ride to Panama.
Agreed, the humans should have been the ones on top and I know this may be going too far but thinking about it the response from earth isn't suddenly going to become more reasonable they are going to get pissed and come back. If Sully had been less eager to strike back maybe he wouldn't have just doomed them to a larger response.MrDeckard said:
The humans. The movie actually pissed me off a little bit. Not so much right versus wrong though. More about how the humans have much better technology but since the movie makes them seem evil, the alien equivalent to cavemen somehow prevaled. It made no sense, but hey the audience is happy! I wanted them to bomb the hell out of the Navi. I wanted those .50 cals to rip their blue flesh apart.
They definitely need to make a sequel where humanity comes back with a bigger army.

In a way, I sort of wanted the humans to win. Maybe, it was because they had the awesome gunships and other technology (which I thought was cool). But that was just because it was a movie. Really, the humans were in the wrong; they attacked the Na'vi for their resources; and even if the humans did need it, I don't think that it (attacking the Na'vi) was justified.
The Na'vi - maybe - weren't technically human, but they possessed feelings and emotions, just as we do.

What she said.Demented Teddy said:
Humans looked way cooler than the Na'vi too, in my opinion. How can you argue with the massive 5-foot-long-knife wielding 10 foot tall mechs they had?
I'm pretty sure humanity needed it to survive. And besides, humanity offered them a peaceful resolution and the Navi were the ones who wanted war. They didn't even need it for themselves, they just believed in bullshit religion (the cause of more death and destruction than anything else in the universe) so the land was sacred to them.Jedoro said:
I don't think what they did was wrong, that's how the world works. And in real life the superior technology would have easily won. If they kept resisting, genocide would have possibly occured. And there is not a single damn Marine that would turn on his country and the human race just like that.

Oh, wait, wrong Avatar . . . I don't care enough about James Cameron's new creation to take sides.
