Clever remake of The Emerald Forrest.

On a serious note, if certain variables line up, a lawsuit may emerge.

i didnt like avatar... but gotta admit thats pretty cool

You would think that a doctor would know better

And the Golden Globe for "Best Director in a Film That Makes People Shoot One Another and Makes Middle-Aged Men Stroke Out" goes to... James Cameron, yaaaaay.

Probably died from the sudden shock of when the movie stopped being boring. so like 2 hours in.

well I thought i was going to die while watching It's Complicated

what a horrible movie!

LET THE BACKLASH BEGIN!

I'm 42 and I saw Avatar in IMAX and my brain still works.

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED:
100 GP - Survived Avatar

Eh, I give that 7/10. Good effort.

First someone gets shot, now someone has a stroke.

Looks like Avatar...*sunglasses*...is a killer at the box office.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

I wish I could have hit the "like" button another 20 times. Seriously cracking up.

Damn, that's a good one. :D

Although it's a human being that died here i must confess I laughed out loud.

Doesn't that statistically make avatar more harmful than marijuana?

No, because marijuana obviously is the gateway drug to creating movies about blue cat people.

I wonder when the FDA will step in and have warning ads placed at the beginning of Avatar 3-D stating "this movie may be addictive and hazardous to your health".

I'm sure JC will be horrified by this news, but some part of him is probably very pleased.

at first i thought JC stood for..well JESUS CHRIST...i was confused until i realized it was cameron...although it did add a whole new layer to the humor in the situation

Me too. Then I thought John Connor.

Don't you find it odd that the more people go to a movie, the more weird shit happens in the theater?

This a sarcastic remark right. Like someone above said, statistically this is bound to happen. And with a movie as big as Avatar it will surely be reported. I'm sure this isn't the first guy, or the last, to die from a stroke during a movie.

I can't believe the comments here. This is a human life and you guys don't care and are making fun of the fact. This is terrible, the man was 42...sad news indeed.

107 humans per minute die around the world.

1.78 per second
107 per minute
6390 per hour
153 thousand per day
56.0 million per year
3.9 billion per average lifetime (70 years)

Life goes on.

I doubt you or anyone else here would know, or even care if I dropped dead tomorrow. With or without seeing Avatar. At least this guy is now famous and that's more than can be say for the 17.8 people that died just while you were reading this post. But, if you feel that bad about it, you can always pay for his funeral, or send him some flowers... maybe send his family a copy of the Avatar DVD... since he's not going to be available to take them to go see it.

1.78 per second?

A part of me died when I read that statistic.

Well, about 3 other people died while you were reading it too.

He is one with Eywa now.

Are they sure it wasn't bad writing that killed him?

That guy?

James Cameron really is GOD!

Only in his own mind. :P

To bad a tree of souls doesn't actually exist that way they could of transferred his mind into the body of an Avatar.

Joke aside its kind of sad that had to happen. The guy was only 42.

interesting story. that's too bad though. that's terrible to hear.

this reminds me of the story of a man watching a Pulp Fiction that, I believe, had a heart attack while watching the film during the "syringe" scene. He was diabetic and he was low on sugar but the scene put him over the top. He was fine once he had some sugar though, thankfully.

Alright, seriously, what the fuck?! Avatar again? Really? Every piece of non-news bullshit about this movie has to be reported on? Was one day without Avatar news is too much? Really. Really?! REALLY?! Some dude had a stroke in a movie theater, it may or may not be related to the actual movie, and because it involves Cameron's cat people it's worth an article? It's driving me insane. I see those goddamn blue faces in my sleep now. they haunt me. Those little jellyfish seeds have taken root in the depths of the internet, wriggled their nerve endings into everyone's brain and taken over the entire fucking world.

U mad, brutha.
U mad.

We all know Jay Leno is what really killed that man. That's right people! I'm making it about Leno. I'm THAT guy.

Fuck Leno!

I salute you sir.

I'm glad you exist.

Haha, I'm gladd Jesse has resorted to this too, it's become pretty funny.

fyi - NOT sarcasm! I applaude you, sir.

a human died. there are more important things here than complaining about a movie you didn't like.

please try to be constructive to the conversation.

It has nothing at all to do with my opinion of the movie. But do we really need to hear about it every 8 hours?

And I was obviously exaggerating. I'm annoyed at the excessive non-stop coverage of this movie for the past 6 months.

Other people might like people dying?

Hmm other people might like this, haven't you thought about this, concretelogic?

Aww, forgot you're the one that doesn't do that.

I don't think that came through in your initial post and I think that this could have been any film and we would have gotten this news.

grow the fuck up

Can i say LOL?

WAY HARSH, TAI.

Death by Avatar!
