Default Don't you hate it when...

...Avatar is expressed or advertised the wrong way or is made fun of with sexual themes?

It enfuriates me to see people not seeing avatar the way it is suppose to, esp. in a disturbing manor.

See an advertisement for yourself

Yeah. There's WAY too much hype around the "sex" scene.

Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if, during the commercials for the rerelease (assuming it happens) that right at the part when they say "6 additional minutes" we get a glimpse of that. Hollywood will be Hollywood.

Just try not to care, and appreciate Avatar for what it's really worth

Thats what I say, see the movie the way you want to and don't let anyone else tell you how to.

It happens. Sex is important to our survival, it sells.

Indeed, I really do dislike it when it's advertised like this.

But as Aiwha said - sex sells in modern society.

It's just extremely sad that many people only see Avatarians as people who only enjoy Avatar for the "Blue alien cat sex"... They can't see that people can enjoy it for other reasons.

I don't like it, but it's inevitable... just because not everyone understands like we do.

This is just what the society demands, that's why internet is full of these awful advertisements. People want to watch it, they need it, it's fun for them. As a real Avatar fan I really hate it.
