For other reasons, I have just saw Avator the last week of May with my wife, and REALLY enjoyed it much. The last time I was so taken in by a show was Jurassic Park with that dino eating leaves from the tree scene at the start of the show. It was just amazing to see. That is what I thought of with this show from the very start. But I do have a question about it.
Now, I do seem to have a somewhat disconnect with some of you "hard-liners" out there. I do view and enjoy S/F as escapist entertainment, but still do enjoy a good fantasy storyline. I like to be drawn into the story and enjoy all of it for just what it is, entertainment. I do try and put aside all political, cultural, and religious intent and just enjoy the show. I don't care if panthesim can be gleened out of Star Wars, for example, just enjoy the show.
Now that all my disclaimers are out there, my question has to do with the avators of the crew, just as if it WAS REAL!! I know what these things are in a computer generated world, and how some people could like to be that person instead of themselves in the real world. But according to the storyline, how would this work on that planet? Their "real" bodies would be in that incubation like chamber while their avator roamed the planet, with just a mental link? Is there a book out about that as well, to look for the answers?
Another question that comes to mind, their "real" bodies would be in rest mode while their avator was running around, and just the reverse when out? Then they could really be on the go around the clock, and never run down. But what about their minds, when would that part rest? But, PLEASE, don't take it so serious.
Now, like I said, this is just entainment, but I was wondering these things about the show. I also really enjoyed the details the CGI part included. That really made it so real. Thanks, Henry
