I love movies, but this is ridiculous…

Via Cinematical.com, here’s a link to an online forum that addresses a desperate social issue I never even suspected existed: the depression that sets in when some people realize the world of AVATAR is fictional, and they’ll never, never be able to really go there.
.
Sample advice:
.
“Start living like Neytiri: in touch with nature, the environment, and not being greedy and wasteful. Pass on the burger, for something more healthy for you and less cruel to animals. Spend your time on this forum, or volunteering in your free time, instead of getting high or drinking, twiddling your thumbs, being apathetic and complaining about how bad the world is. Don’t get swept away by the wave of negativity, live your dream. Your life has only two switches, to shine or not to shine. There is no “apathy” setting.”
.
“I went to cinema and watched it again for the second time to relieve the depression and hopeless feeling. Now I listen to the soundtrack and share my views in this forum. It really helps.”
.
“Im starting work on an RPG (anolog type similar to D&D) which has helped me. also doing some fan art”
.
Odd? Maybe. But it’s nothing compared with the folks over at My Life is Twilight. Hooo boy!

How about convincing one’s self that they are going to see a movie based in fiction, and that after the movie is over (within a few hours), it is over, and never really existed, except in media entertainment.
People that get that attached have lost total grasp of reality.
