@topic: why am I a fan? Because I'm a frustrated punk rocker type who obsesses over politics and who has never allowed himself to indulge in such nerdy things as Star Trek or LOTR. When I first saw Avatar I was like "WTF this is just so GOOD," and I started to read everything I could on the movie. When I discovered that there was an actual language, I about had a conniption fit! I learned my first sentence (kaltxì, oel ngati kameie. ngaru lu fpom srak.) and used it every chance I got. A friend of mine on my high school paper (who is going to Brown University in RI for cognitive neuroscience and linguistics) called me obsessed for wanting to learn; she saw the movie and is now currently trying to learn the language as well. It's an exciting thing to be a part of something like this, I've found, and not always so easy to judge my so-called "nerdy" friends anymore.
