The movie Avatar continues to break cinema-going records as it proves to be the equal of the former fantasy blockbusters Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. As one of the many millions of viewers, in my mind Avatar gets an "A" grade for original biology and graphics. But only a "C" grade for logical plot and anticipated changes in weapons technology over the next 150 years.
The plot was similar to a modern war movie, with the usual cast of characters The weapons were still using gunpowder-propelled projectiles. Surely a new technology will be perfected by the time humans can reach another planet.
