QUOTE: After reading though all 50 pages and debating if I should say anything, I have decided that I will step up. I too have felt...different after watching Avatar. When the last scene finished it felt like I woke up from a wonderful dream. At first I was excited and full of energy but then I started to realize that none of it was real and that I would never be able to visit Pandora or the Na'vi. I have been feeling rather down every since and not much seems to make it feel better, I just hope that it will leave in time. I am somewhat relieved to see that I am not the only one. It was embarrassing for me to feel this way about a movie when no one else around me felt the same. I constantly think about the movie wherever I am, and doing so just makes everything seem so gray and sad. As dorky as this sound there have been times where I just want to cry ><
QUOTE: do you guys also get the thoughts of sucidal? i dont mean to sound creepy or emo...
but i kinda felt that humans are pathetic and my life don't mean anything anymore after checking out how good the Na'vi lives are.
QUOTE: I have the same feeling. but I also have the same feeling about Neytiri i want her not a girl on our earth.
Son Joseph responds: "All creation groans under the curse. Being presented with utopias--even if we know they're not real--is always going to make that more pronounced. The Matrix did something similar to people. Interestingly, the second movie revealed the dark underside of the utopia, which is rare. I never watched the third movie."
