Trivia: When Quaritch gives his "You are not in Kansas anymore" speech, the window in the background resembles an American flag. The horizontal window slats are the red stripes, the spaces between them are the white stripes, and the piece of machinery in the corner is the union (the blue part with the stars). This is a subtle reference to the film Patton, in which Patton gives a speech standing in front of an American flag at the beginning of the movie. (00:06:45)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Neytiri is showing Seze to Jake, Neytiri's ponytail changes positions between shots twice. She puts it over her left shoulder as Seze is landing, it's at her back in the next shot of her, then when she says "Ikran is not horse" it's over her shoulder again. (00:58:15)

Deliberate mistake: When Selfridge says "Pull the plug" after Hometree is destroyed, two soldiers, one male and one female, go to shut off Jake and Grace's avatar links. The female soldier goes straight to Grace's link and terminates it, but the male soldier gets delayed (punched by Norm) before he can terminate Jake's link. This is deliberately shown out of sequence - we see Jake's link terminated before Grace's. The result is that we see Grace's avatar fall unconscious when Jake's link is terminated, and Jake's avatar fall unconscious when Grace's link is terminated.
