Oh of course, plus you'd save packet on DVD rentals and cinema tickets that way. :-)

But it still wasn't an actual fuck. IMHO. A pash maybe...
The sex scene didn't make the cut, so hard to say what it is, no?, but every indication is that it's indeed based on the braids.

I thought it was blindingly obvious that it wasn't their sex organ, by the fact that they were sticking them into animals. It was a means of communication.
Not so. Here's what Saldana said about the deleted sex scene, which will be in the DVD extras presumably:
If you sync to your banshee and you're syncing to a tree, why not sync into a person? I almost feel like you'll have the most amazing orgasm, I guess. It was a very funny scene to shoot because there were so many technical things that sometimes you have to keep in mind that paying attention to all those might disrupt the fluidity of how a scene is supposed to take place.

You are not meant to ponder these points. You're meant to directly experience them. If you can't or won't, fine. Don't. Be critical, it's really, really easy.
Actually I think you'll find that the imperative is that you should enjoy it and if you don't there's something wrong with you - read the comments to Calder's review. Pardon some of us for having differing opinions.
But Avatar isn't a videogame, it's a film. If Cameron wanted to make a really kewl videogame, he should have made a damn videogame.
I'm having flashbacks from the discussions following The Matrix, which was also a film you *had* to enjoy.

Coupla things: the wormy fibres in the French braid were Na'vi nerves I take it? Growing out from their skulls???
That was one of the interesting bits I thought, if you combine it with the idea that the whole planet is a big bionetwork. Like Sigourney says, they upload and download information at will... not that it makes a blind bit of difference when wartime comes, but hey.

I believe you'll find the word is "pendant". (Plural: pendant's.)

I love that they just keep touching the sign up instead of changing it.
Old folks were taught the proper use of the apostrophe, so they know it's not at all ambiguous.

I suppose.

(Also, now that someone has pointed out the whole Anne-McCaffrey-rip-off thing to me I sort of want to poke him in the eye.)
I think the scene is too ridicolous to warrant a lawsuit from McCaffrey. This thing has happened what, three or four times in the history of the Na'vi? White fella comes and says look, the dragon is such a badass it will never expect to be attacked from above. Easy! So much so he doesn't even bother to do it on screen.

I want "bogan wordplay" to feature as word of the year, somebody please write it down.
