What about that no one, in a society where everyone flies, thought "Hey maybe trying to fly above the big flying thingy" before him?
How about the "oh no he's running out of air, but his girlfriend saves him at the last possible second!"
The plot is my only reason for disliking this movie. The characters were, if a bit cliched, well done and the visuals were better than anything I've seen but the plot was horrible.

As I've said, they weren't military, they were mercenaries. Mercenaries are usually the scum of the ex-military and tend to act like morons, or at least that is the popular conception. The charges were to destroy the tree for shock and awe, not to destroy all the na'vi. The ground troops were to mop up and kill the actual na'vi. Umm, they didn't try because they didn't want to die? Why bother? He released it at the end, it was one of those desperate measures things. They had never been threatened so badly before. And we don't know why or the circumstances surrounding the previous 5 who had done it. Ok, so you named 1 moment in a 3 hour movie that was predictable. I can do that with every single movie.
