This is kind of pathetic.
"When I woke up this morning after watching Avatar for the first time yesterday, the world seemed ... gray. It was like my whole life, everything I've done and worked for, lost its meaning," Hill wrote on the forum. "It just seems so ... meaningless. I still don't really see any reason to keep ... doing things at all. I live in a dying world."
People are getting clinically depressed and feeling like killing themselves over this (or any) message film?
I am reminded of the first Matrix film, and how the crew of the Nebuchadnezzar tells Neo about the people who could not cope with the reality they truly lived in.
I bet this person quoted above, never spent more then a few hours at a national park or other natural area or wonder. Most likely spends most of their non working hours in malls, movies, or man made amusement ares such as Six Flags, Disney, or Vegas. There is a huge wonderful world still out there folks. You just have to look for it. Stop looking in corporate published travel information for travel ideas. Take a look at Google earth and pick as remote a spot you can find and enjoy The Earth while you are still alive.
The other thing is that It's Winter stupid. As a rule, this time of year in the northern hemisphere things are kind of on the gray and brown end of the spectrum, and there is not as much color in the environment. Duh!
Anyway, the quote is from an amusing article over at CNN on how people on mass are experiencing "depression and suicidal thoughts after seeing the film".
A very politically motivated story about "Avatar" over at CNN...
