(CNN) -- James Cameron's completely immersive spectacle "Avatar" may have been a little too real for some fans who say they have experienced depression and suicidal thoughts after seeing the film because they long to enjoy the beauty of the alien world Pandora.

snip

"Ever since I went to see 'Avatar' I have been depressed. Watching the wonderful world of Pandora and all the Na'vi made me want to be one of them. I can't stop thinking about all the things that happened in the film and all of the tears and shivers I got from it," Mike posted. "I even contemplate suicide thinking that if I do it I will be rebirthed in a world similar to Pandora and the everything is the same as in 'Avatar.' "

snip

"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."

Kinda makes you wonder if this was the desired effect from making the movie, and these dummies fell for it.

After watching Avatar, I viewed Terminator and Aliens. And wept at the loss of talent Cameron has obviously suffered.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

It’s called “I voted for Obama’s hope and change and all I got was Hoax and changey”. Get a sex doll, libtard.

These people are truly insane. And dangerous when they’re all wee wee’d up. Maybe this guy’ll commit suicide and solve his own problem.

I don’t really know how to respond to this except there must be an awful lot of unhappy people out there who can’t appreciate the beauty of this earth and this life. Geesh, it’s a MOVIE!

Gee, does this mean that James Cameron is guilty of mass psychological abuse? Nay, even “torture”?

Oh, if ONLY he would turn this talent to profitable use making crazed jihadis feel that their lives are equally pointless.

That's a excellent point.

I would bet a vast majority of these libtards never experienced any real "oneness" with nature by actually leaving their mommies basement

A walk though the deep woods, a climb up a mountain, a canoe trip down a stream
