It's all something to do with that [sp]fucking tree[/sp]
Look, it's a movie with a liberal message and, NOT being Dances With Wolves, couldn't end on a sad note.
Thus, several deus ex machinas later, [sp]the evil corporation is defeated and the impossible lets Jake live the life he's always wanted. Pie in the sky, but fuck, it's a movie. They'll do what they want.[/sp]
Superconductors actually can make things levitate.

I just saw avatar.
Oh, my
FUCKING
GOD.
; Your theory makes fuck-all sense, there will be two more sequels, and with a main character with no [sp]legs[/sp], wouldn't you think that would fuck it up a bit if he hallucinated [sp]the moving of his animus into his avatar's body?[/sp]
It was a theory, I know it's just a goddamn movie. James Cameron doesn't think things through like that, it was just some fridge brilliance I managed to hack together after learning about that kind of extreme electromagnetism.

What dumb ass came up with that retarded name
It was all Jake Sully dreaming what Pandora would be like. He is still in cryo on the way to Pandora.
Popular Science magazine had a small article on the movie Avatar and in the sidebar they interviewed James Cameron about the film.
A question they asked him was about the science of Pandora and how close it was to reality. Cameron responded that whilst they tried to keep close to actual science, they had to bend the rules a little bit. For the floating mountains, they did the math and determined that any magnetic field strong enough to hold up the massive structures would rip the hemoglobin out of your blood stream (like Magneto did in that X-men film).
And, as others have said, there are sequels planned that rules out the possibility of such a thing. The final "nail in the coffin" is that a multi-million-dollar sci-fi action-adventure movie doesn't need to rely on cheesy twist endings like lower-budget films. [I]*cough*M. Night Shyamalan*cough*[/I]

And boobs.
[quote=http://www.playboy.com/articles/james-cameron-interview/index.html?page=2]PLAYBOY: How much did you get into calibrating your movie heroine's hotness?
CAMERON: Right from the beginning I said, "She's got to have tits," even though that makes no sense because her race, the Na'vi, aren't placental mammals.[/quote]
So if the last parts of the movie was not all real, then a sequel might make sense.

Cameron's a furry.
The Magnetic field of those mountains would rip the iron out of your blood.
So please, let us remember that movies can be a little unrealistic.

In all seriousness, it's a movie. Don't worry about the logistics. Enjoy the sight of a flying lizard tearing marines out of military gunships.
