Well this might be one for the future.

What's with the big fungi in the background? That thing is scaring the **** out of me...

An basically, it's STALKER online with the story ripped from The Happening, instead of radiation. They've even just taken stuff from STALKER.

Fail written all over.

With a name like suvarium it should do. Must be the same guy from Avatar who named the mineral Unobtainium.

I'd agree if unobtainium wasn't put there as a joke.

Isn't unobtainium a term used by engineers for when they need a material with properties that don't exist?

But they obtained it, he had a piece on his desk. It the context that it was delivered in Avatar it was wrong, had they been talking about an unknown or yet discovered element or material then yes, it would suffice and you'd be right, but they already had it, already on sale, already used etc...it just doesn't work, and sounded absolutely daft when delivered in the film. They literally could have called it anything else and it would have sounded better.
