What would you do with a kilo of unobtainium?
>>
>>63660111
Nothing because I wouldn't know how to sell it or forge it
>>
>>63660111

It would need a market and without that who do you sell it to?
>>
it's pretty shitty that they actually used that word in the film, it's a placeholder word to describe a substance in the meta context of writing, it'd be like making a hero film where they're literally on a quest to find the legendary "macguffin"

For a while I thought that the name was something that people in the future just called it because the true name was too long to say so it became kind of a joke.

But in the movie that really is the scientific name for it, isn't it?
>>
>>63660111
Also a kilo is basically worthless if you can forge it. "make a sword" "make a gun" "make armor" Yeah, what can you do thats original? It would need some sort of scientific application which I'm not smart enough to tell you
>>
>>63660111
make a lightsaber
>>
Make it into a cockring that also covers my balls.
>>
>>63660298
Build a Gundam

>>63660111

Can you smoke it?

Why would they spend billions upon billions of dollars to travel to a whole other planet just to obtain something that is worth a lot of money keeping in mind money is a man made thing.
>>
throw it at you
>>
>>63660291
They never refer to it as anything else.
>>
Did anyone actually watch Avatar after seeing it in theaters?
>>

Cape that shit lmao
>>
>>63661665
Sure did. Saw it 2 times in the theaters i bought the Bluray and then i bought the 3D bluray when i got my 3D tv
>>
What is it even used for? They just say it's worth so much... and that Earth is a hellhole because it has no resources to mine anymore... even though that would make it a paradise since air quality levels would skyrocket.
>>
Break out tha baking soda, whip dat work in the kitchen and stretch it into 2 kilos ya feel me?

>>63662247
its expensive cus its hard to obtain
>>
>>63660298
probably something with technological applications similar to silicon
>>
>>63660111
Two chicks at the same time.

>>63663361
Its hard to obtain because its expensive

Calling it "room-temperature structurally-stable crystalline superconductor" sounds gay

This is NATURALLY OCCURRING ROOM TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR. It's mere existence would turn the entire field of materials science completely on its head, and it allow for unHEARD of advancements in electrical engineering and electrical/quantum physics. Universities would drain their endorsements and corporations would empty their coffers to get their hands on what would be the only kilo in existence. Scientists would messily sacrifice their children to Ishtar to study it for 5 minutes, and 11 out of 10 ethicists would agree that they're actually getting too good of a deal.

What I'm trying to say is that if you really couldn't find a way to turn an absolutely disgusting profit with a kilo of this stuff, you are literally an autistic mouth-breather who is stealing someone else's oxygen just by existing
>>
>>63660111
Sell it and buy two kilos

Almost walked out of the theater when he said unobtanium

But your fine with Americium, Californium and Einsteinium?
>>
>>63660111
Trade it for same amount of californium.
>>
Put that in Bongzilla and smoke it!
>>
>>63660111
Bury it so more grows (obviously somewhere secret)

Most people don't realize that crystals can grow by budding underground which is why we never run out of metal ores
>>
>>63664027

Your explanation is fine and all. But if I'm the only person in the world who has ever had any quantity of unobtanium before, we have no idea of its actual properties.

Sure, there is speculation -- but I have to prove its worth before I can sell it.

How do you plan on doing that?
>>
>>63664875
Literally walk into a uni lab and have a professor look at it for an hour. This isnt the stone age anon

>>63665217
Then he kills you for the shekels

probably change the card color to red
