allow me to play the idiot-younger-sibling of said devil's advocate and just point out you can absolutely touch electricity, which is why we use safety plugs to keep toddlers from licking electrical outlets.

in any case, I think the biggest problem with the movie is just how... meh... it was. Hive minds have been done before; and that was allegory for the interconnections inherent in a thriving biosphere. The Unobtanium was allegory for greed. (as was whale brains. maybe that explains RFK's antics...?) The capitalist douchenozzles were... well... if I said it was allegory, it was so they could beat us upside the head with it.

Electricity can be felt, but not touched.
