Corrected entry: At the end of the big battle, the survivors are lined up and are leaving Pandora but to where? All the ships from earth will be full and it will take at least 5+ years for empty ships to arrive to evacuate the survivors.

Corrected entry: In the Extended Edition of the movie, we have Tsu'tey's death scene in full near the end. Jake comes in and the whole scene plays out. but Jake is in his Avatar body. Not moments before, we saw the entire trailer holding the pods in which Jake connected with his Avatar body wrecked by Colonel Miles. So how did he reconnect with his Avatar body after that? It couldn't have been with that trailer, nor could it have been at the original base considering the company should still be inhabiting it and the scene seems to take place at most a few hours after wards.
Correction: The trailer was damaged, sure, but it wasn't totally wrecked - it still appeared to be, for the most part, structurally intact, for example. Slap a quick patch on the windows and any leaks (any installation designed to work in a toxic atmosphere is going to have repair equipment readily to hand) and it's not remotely unreasonable that at least one of the interface pods would still be functional.

Corrected entry: In the final battle, Jake and Norm access their Avatars from the same portable bunker. Midway through the battle, Norm's Avatar is killed and he exits his 'tanning bed' inside the portable bunker but isn't seen leaving it. He isn't seen again for awhile, not even when the Colonel breaks the windows in the bunker or when Jake starts suffocating inside.
Correction: After being disconnected from his injured avatar, Norm puts on a mask, picks up a human-scale gun and goes out to rejoin the fight in his human form. This is shown in at least two shots.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Jake is looking at the photographs of the Na'vi on the refrigerator, the photographs are three dimensional. They should appear flat. (obviously only visible when seen in 3d.).
Correction: Given the advanced level of technology displayed throughout the film, there's no reason why they couldn't have 3D photographs.

Correction: Simple logic would state that any ship doing the Earth-Pandora run must have sufficient capacity to evacuate the entire human population in the event of a disaster - it would be insane to have a situation where any possibility of rescue would take five years to get there. A significant number of the base's military personnel, likely the vast majority, would have been lost in the battle, so the ship returning to Earth should have more than ample capacity to take all the survivors back with them.
