Avatar (film)/Headscratchers/Characters: Difference between revisions

*** IIRC, James Cameron was trying to make a point about Grace not caring about her own body, and taking better care of her avatar self than her human self.

*** The most annoying part is that ''they rely on air purifiers and filtration systems'' to get their own oxygen in Hell's Gate (and, presumably, in the mobile uplink pods.) By smoking, she's just wasting the precious oxygen they need to survive. Heck, does the mobile unit even have filters, or does it rely on good ol' fashioned oxygen tanks? Because that would be even worse.

*** How is smoking a waste of oxygen? The purifiers are only removing excess carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. Beyond that, Pandoran air is practically the same as Earth air. And purifiers can be used for decades given you wash the thing (by scrubbing and water, no less) every two weeks or so.

**** It's a waste of oxygen inasmuch as it puts an unnecessary strain on the filters. True, it's possibly a negligible effect at the Hell's Gate base, but not so much at the mobile units, which don't appear to have any maintenance crew other than Grace's own staff.
