I won't be buying either of them, I'd never do such a thing. But I don't look down at those who do.

Just my opinion.
Exactly my opinion...

I don't mind because people who want it will watch it, people who don't like it will soon enough forget that it even exists. To some people, they DO consider the Na'vi attractive and there is no harm in this.

Also, there is plenty of rule 34 around, some of it very bad, some actually fairly good - there has been since Avatar was released - how does a film make things any different?

It's not the people who buy this stuff that get to me, it's the people who make it in the first place.

The people who make these things - how do they harm anyone? Aren't they free to interpret the movie as they like?

Oh they don't harm anyone (theoretically )

It's just that being a fan and all, and seeing as how I feel about it, seeing it reduced to nothing more than a sexual fantasy is a little annoying.

Because one is physical?
What about couples roleplaying then? Is that wrong?
Sorry, but single people are entitled to pleasure too if they want it.

This changes nothing for me.

Also, to many people, Neytiri (or Jake) IS a sexual fantasy - indeed, for me, any (female ) Na'vi is.

True enough, but i'm assuming what you're talking about, and what they're portraying is an ever-so-slightly different ballgame. (So to speak...)

Well, it IS just a trailer...

I won't be watching the full version to find out though.

It's the same thing though... Some people use their imagination, others can't as well, or just prefer to actually see something themselves.
