Bob's feedback:

"This is an important and interesting topic, and by tying it into a popular movie, you've not only made your essay more interesting to read, but you've also provided a solid illustration to get your points across. Since your audience may not be familiar with the film (and you give a synopsis of the scene you're providing), be sure to identify the characters and factions involved. These include the RDA, the Na'vi, and Colonel Quaritch. Since this scene analysis has real-world implications, it may be prudent to draw some parallels with historical examples of differential power."
