I personally thought, for Avatar, that a much more complex story would have gotten in the way of everything else. I don't usually say that, but I am now. There are four types of story; Milieu, Idea, Character and Event. Lord of the Rings (the book, not the movie) would be an example of a Milieu story, as JRR Tolkien was concentrating more on the world his events were taking place in, not the events themselves, because that is what he cared about. I really think James Cameron, intentionally or unintentionally, made this a Milieu type story, and actually, now that I think of it, I think it was intentional. Why on earth would he develop a whole language for the Na'Vi, and come up with whatever else he put in that Pandorapedia or whatever it was called, if all he cared about was the story?
Seriously, if you guys only go to the theaters for a good story, and nothing else, you will be disappointed. But if you are willing to take in all aspects of the film, you will enjoy Avatar.
