Visually stunning... So-so plot.... Pandora and inhabitants are still too earth-like.... The Navi are too human-like based on earth's tribal society.... Human so advance for inter-galaxy space travel, yet some of the weapons and scientific equipment very outdated

A planet with earth like properties will produce almost, it may not be entirely the same but similar creatures. Scientific equipment wont really change much over time, just look at the glassware used today and 500 years ago. However, FTL travel within a century and a half maybe slightly too fast.

Pandora's solar system is 4 light years ++ away from our solar system. The  humans need 5 years to reach, so it's not really FTL. Maybe it's near-light speed.

Agree with you that it doesn't need to be explained in this movie. Look at Pulp Fiction, the "stuff" in the briefcase was never shown too. Maybe when unobtainium has something to do with the main plot of the next few movies, they will gonna explain it.

Sorry, that I din't check that if the ship is FTL or not.

I think Cameron named it with a generic term - unobtainium for a reason (it just means stuff that is physically quite impossible (massless, frictionless)) from wiki.

No lar. There's no actual sex scene, they just kiss, then cut to next morning.

I don't think Finas have the tech to censor it...cuz it is digital.
