I don't think Jake is an idiot. I think he lived under the shadow of his twin brother all his life (which I got the impression he didn't mind and admired him just as much as everyone else) and became a marine to BE something and even the loss of the use of his legs didn't make him bitter toward life or put any blame on his choice of career. After his twins death he had an incredible opportunity to become part of an amazing scientific experiment to literally become part of and learn about the indigenous life on a soon to be strip-mined planet to save a dying earth and even though he KNEW he wasn't what everyone wanted him to be, he wanted to Learn and that's why he was 'chosen' to become an important part of Navi history...he was "pure" and "like a child".
And Col.Quaritch was a psychopath with a gun and nothing to stop his crazy ass. There was not an inch of honorable solider in that man.
This an almost a spiritual film and everyone should see it.
Everyone will have their own take on it & all will have a hell of a ride watching it.
The visuals alone make it worth paying theater prices.
