Every single movie tells a story of a world 10 times as stark, exciting and romantic as the one we live in, and every time I watch one, I feel like shit for living like I do, where I do.

How does anyone ever feel good after watching a movie?

Uhh, because you enjoy a good story? (Or in Avatar's case, because of the kickass special effects)

I dunno man, I'm a sucker for holocaust movies. The topic has been such a cliche for a long time, but it never ceases to leave me..probably cause I met a holocaust survivor on a field trip in grade school.

..and I've read Viktor Frankl, beautiful.
Once you play starcraft, everything else in life seems alot easier.

Thats just the thing, though. I love good stories, eat them up, but it just makes me feel like shit afterwards, be it a sci-fi, action or comedy, book, movie or whatever.

How does anyone ever feel good after watching a movie?

if the real world was as cool as movies we wouldn't watch movies. the purpose of film, tv, etc is for us to see stuff that's entertaining. if you feel like shit or feel crappy after watching a movie it likely stems from your disappointment with your life, not from the world in general being worse than the movie world. edit: i apologize if this comes off as an insult, i say this with as little judgment as possible, i don't mean to say your life is shit or something. but if you really feel this bad after movies, you are probably unhappy for other reasons.

for example, after avatar a lot of people became depressed (there was a thread on a forum with hundreds of pages), and its not because avatar was so awesome or something, but more because these people were just unhappy and avatar helped to compound that already existing depression.

Hot_Bid already posted my views. I think you need to make a list of shit you want to make happen and get some of it done. You'll feel better.

I hate movies because it is psychologically impossible for me to sit down and concentrate on something for over fifteen minutes. I can't fucking do it, no matter how hard I try. 9 times out of 10, I will play the movie, watch the first 10 minutes, start up a game of SC and play WHILE the movie is still playing on my computer so that I'm just basically listening to it while I'm playing. I don't know what's wrong with me.

popculture is made to be mindlessly consumed. u better be thinking big things about the world itself if you gonna ignore the mindless distraction otherwise your statement is worthless and you're just like a person depressed over the movie avatar OO!

I hate romantic movies only, because it's almost always guaranteed to end with a "happy end" , you know the sloppy nerdy guy finally becomes the hero what the film's most attractice woman always wanted and etc...

No bullshit, I just watched Avatar last weekend (finally out on dvd, 3D movies are all dubbed in japanese here) and the only thing I took away from the movie was how stupid it was that the mech suits had big knives.
