I refuse to go see it simply because of the money spent to produce it. Sure,I would enjoy the special effects.........but give me something real.

It depresses me that I'm not in a world of 24-7 38DD's, blondes and threesomes.

I think the real problem is that all these cry babies grew up in a world where everything was handed to them. I grew up in a a Star Trek/Star Wars world. We didn't have games and toys that did everything for us, WE HAD TO USE OUR IMAGINATION! So when it came to distuingishing reality vs fantasy it was pretty damn easy! Kids nowa days watch so much crap on vidoe games and tv from age 1 they never have to use thier imagination to DREAM.

If people are going to start legal action because of depression due to something they've seen or heard, Leonard Cohen is in deep sh**.

Cameron himself believes 3D viewing 'is so close to a real experience that it actually triggers memory creation in a way that 2D viewing doesn't' and that stereoscopic (3D) viewing uses more neurons, which would further heighten its impact."

Well I went into the movie yesterday thinking I was just going to see a sci-fi romp. Little did I know it would change my life forever. I sat in the theater after it was over just stunned, and then I began to cry. I was ripped apart with feelings I had never had before, hate for myself and my species, hate for my capitalistic and worthless society, and a feeling of such despair that I would never be able to know the Na'vi or their superior culture and way of life. I was there just thinking and crying for about 15 minutes before an usher asked me to leave. I told him I never wanted to leave and he was confused for a second. Then he said I had to go and if I wanted to see this "crappy movie" again I'd have to pay for another ticket. Well to cut to the chase it got a bit heated at that point and we ended up in a shoving match. The police officer who took me out of there didn't seem to care either. When I told him he was a tool of an oppressive society that is destroying the world he laughed at me. Now I've got a charge against me for public disturbance but I don't care. Hopefully that jerk usher got fired.

The next day I saw it at a different theater in 3d. All of a sudden the world was as real as my own. At the end I stood up and started telling the people that they were the bad guys and were killing the Na'vi everyday with their western society. I said look at Afghanistan! I got cussed out and had a soda thrown on me but I wore those like a badge of honor, I felt like a Na'vi standing against human oppression and sickness. I just wished I had a weapon at that point and could have fought like Jake did. Jake was so strong. I began to wish that I could be like a new Hitler, only instead of exterminating one race I'd do the whole human race then shoot myself at the end. My mom always said I get too wrapped up in this stuff but she is an idiot who is just as much part of the problem as every other American. I told her when I got home and she cried but I don't care anymore, I'm 23 and I can do what I want in my room and don't have to take any "medicine" if I don't want to. Did the Na'vi take pills to "get better" Did the Indians? Nope. I just wish I could stop thinking of this; it's more than a movie. My Mom used to think I was too into WoW but that was just a game. I quit playing and told my guild wife there to just forget me. This feels real, that is just stupid now. I don't even really want to go into work.

Sorry for a long post. I'm in an emotional state right now and just wanted to vent with other believers. I wish I could wake up and be in a real world, not this hell hole we have created on Earth. I don't know if I should cry or be mad anymore.

Maybe you can make your avatar ride one bike while you close your eyes, and you ride the other, and maybe elf girl can ride the blast?

No really the movie was ok. It makes you think of the careless consuming of all resources that stand in our way of progression.
But depressed? come on people it a movie
