Understanding someone doesn't necessarily mean you agree with them. Also, as you mention, resources are finite, so no matter how good your empathy is, someone is going to lose out.

One of the many jokes I heard just after watching in 2010 was that the Toruk is noticeably bigger than ikrans. Apparently, this means that Jake is compensating for something.

Reminds me of the horrible brain bleach inducing moment from when I went and saw Avatar with my family.

Jake rides in on Turok-Mother (59 at the time) turns and whispers in my ear.
"Is it just me or did Jake's loin cloth get longer now that he has the giant red dragon?"

MY BRAIN! I can't KNOW these things!

That watches and receives.
