That's not knowledge of the future, or a group of angtsik would have killed Quaritch the moment he landed on Pandora.
It's intelligence, but not anything special.

It's a bit like that in the scriptment, I guess.


What does everyone make of this as an analogy:

Eywa: superorganism.
Humans: invading pathogen.
Jake Sully/Grace Augustine: antigen.
