    Countryman is right (except for the completely unnecessary question marks). I left the film wanting more: more 3D, more Pandora, more action, and more blue boobs.

    I also felt that the movie touched on the themes that are so prevalent today: alternate realities (video games, online personas, etc) and Earth's destruction (lack of natural resources, global warming, etc). Combined, I can see how people would want "more" of what was being shown. An alternate reality where resources are plentiful and nature is preserved, combined with the ultimate videogame (controlling a blue alien) is appealing. It almost gives a false sense of hope to those people locked in their basements, stuck to their computers.
