Do you think it is wrong to be in love with a movie character?

[Reel]

I am in love with Sam from Garden State. I wish I could find a girl like her.

 

[zanieladie]

Not if you ARE a movie character.

FTW.

 

[UglyCasanova]

Such a terrible and cheesy movie, but such a good soundtrack lol.

Yes, not only is it wrong, but you make baby jesus cry.

 

[DainBramaged]

I'm currently in love with Kim Bauer, does that count?

I had a crush on Jasmine from Alladin for the longest time.

It may be wrong but it was never my intention to make baby jesus cry. Please accept my sincerest apologies.

Don't apologize to me! You better get on your knees....



























...and pray to god for making his baby cry.

It's definitely wrong to be in love with that particular movie character . . .

i don't think many would have hated on you if you said [a character played by] Jessica Alba

 

[Lola]

well that is certainly an interesting thought, isn't it? I guess not any worse than liking a tv character, etc.


PS, there are girls like that out there.

 

[Looney]

Wow, the movie wasn't that good.

 

[NaOH]

Do pornstars count as movie stars?

Entirely too many if you ask me. Hell, one would be too many. She may have been the most irritating movie character I've ever seen.

Sam from Garden State is cute as a third party observer, but could you imagine actually being with her? She'd drive a man crazy.

If you're going to fall in love with fictional characters, pick a less compulsive-liar-y one.

Plus, yes, it's wierd.

Chicks like that are not fun (in the long run).. That quirky\moody crap gets old real fast. Trust me, I know what i'm talking about.

BTW, it's wrong to love a movie character.

 

[Adica]

It's not love, it's lust. That said, it's not wrong, it's natural. That's exactly what the media wants.

but see.. you idealize the character type. I think it's more common than we'd like to admit. If I met the Scarlett Johanssen from Lost in Translation, I would be in love. Any other movie of hers I've seen? Eh.

It's easy to develop an emotional connection to a fictional or limited access character. Read a book, watch a long tv series, play a role playing game for a couple hundred hours. You can develop just as much connection with the intricacies of a fictional character as you might with a real person. We like the nice neat distinction between whether someone is 100% interactive.

For those naysayers - consider these scenarios:

1. An extensive collection of videos made by a girl down the street.
2. Personal writings collection detailing someone's experiences and emotions.
3. A picture that you see every day that somehow strikes you emotionally and you develop a connection with seeing it.
4. An completely inanimate, non-human object which plays a significant role in your life. You use it, see it, interact with it, trust it, or count on it on a daily basis.

Wrong?
No.


Weird, pathetic and a little sad?
Definitely.

What an insightful response. I'm obviously satisfied with my human interactions sufficiently to 'put myself on the line' and question some of the more difficult types of relationships humans form.

If you don't want to entertain the discussion scenarios I proposed, you don't have to.

This post made me laugh. Not because I don't believe in these but because the last comment was great. I like how the inanimate object came into play, can anyone say fleshlight?

:laugh:
