Avatar on shrooms

Ok hello all, Ive been reading these forums on and off for a little bit and I finally decided to try shrooms later on tonight.

me and my buddy are going to see Avatar in 3d true Imax (already saw it, great visuals!)on shrooms. This is my first experience with the drug.

Is this a horrible idea for a first experience? i feel like i should try them in a more comfortable environment....

ive tried salvia a few time but never really tripped so im not sure what to do

any tips on making the trip a good experience (ie mental preparation?) if i decide to do it?

the movie is at 10ish pm Mountain time so ill make sure to drop by and let you know how it went

thanks for any responses
 
It is a good idea at a reasonable beginning dose (~2.0 grams).

By the way, welcome to Bluelight.
 
I would recommend against taking shrooms or any other psyche at a cinema for your first experience. Not necessarily a bad idea per se, but psyches can be uncomfortable if you have to sit around and act sober(ish) for 3+ hours ;)

Check out the recent Alice in Wonderland + Psyches thread and the Avatar on E thread over in ED for more discussion of such things. This thread may well be merged with the former or just closed as it's not really a PD topic. Till them, I'll leave it open and wish you well.

Welcome to PD and BL :)
 
Glad I'm not the only one who thinks this is a good idea ;). I've only seen an hour of the movie, but I've tripped before. I'm planning on doing it with a friend who's tripped off of 3.5 grams more than once, and he says it'll be ok. Just smoke a little pot after ingesting, bring water, and dress comfortably.
 
IMO, this is a terrible idea. You don't know how you are going to respond to the drug, and you don't want to limit yourself to being stuck watching a movie, staying quiet. You should do it in the comfort of your own home so you can truly experience the drug and have the option to what ever you are feeling in the moment. I know on psychedelics I rarely finish watching movies (besides at the tail end). I like to be able to watch some cool trippy scenes, then throw on some tunes, then draw some pictures, then run out side, etc. I've always found when you are stuck doing something on psychedelics it can easily turn for the worst.
 
Don't do it, a movie would just be a horrible distraction. Just lie down in bed in a dark room, maybe some tunes if you're that way inclined but I even find music distracting.
 
You find music distracting? I couldn't imagine tripping with out music going 100% of the time (at least inside). I actually hate being in a house with no music while tripping, it really throws my vibe off and makes me feel awkward.

I don't mind being outside with no music and tripping however. I enjoy the sound of nature while tripping, though I will always have an ipod at easy access.
 
if its your first time with shrooms or any psych, then for the love of your own sanity don't try to be in public. it's terribly stressful until you're comfortable with the mindstate. that being said, there is a lot to be said for timing.

buy your tickets ahead of time and print them out, and bring a woman friend who can tote sealed water bottles and m&ms into the theater. that way you won't get hassled by anyone going in, will not need to make more than cursory eye contact with 'officials'. a sober tripsitter to help you find seats is a good idea. dose early enough that you can enjoy the peak just shooting the shit with friends, and plateau as the previews are starting. this is why i'm starting to really love 2ce, its long duration allows flexible planning without losing precious plateau time.
 
LOL!!!!

After watching the movie avatar a few days ago, I decided that I should go and watch the movie Avatar on shrooms lol. This movie has a spiritual sense of oneness an energy that one can feel while on shrooms. Oh and the COlors omg sooo beautiful, I had a smile on my face while watching.

So YES just watched avatar ON SHROOMS!!!

By watching this movie I felt soo much energy coming into my being that I felt my consciousness expanding enormously!. I have entirely no regrets whatsoever watching this on shrooms!!! An incredible experience!

Oh yea something I noticed.... when the movie ended, I took off the 3D glasses and as I got up from my seat... I felt a little bit uncoordinated, in fact I had to hold on to the rail as I walk down the stairs. *You know the part in the movie where Jake 1st transfer into his Avatar body and how standing up for him was something to get used to and how he kept bumping into everything... Well that's exactly what I was going through lol

I only took 1gram of shrooms and thank GOD I didn't take more... I didn't want to do too much incase I end up not being able to control myself like if I start Breathing too heavily, or laugh and end up not being able to stop myself, or having to go to the restroom every 5mins... I wanted to be able to have a sense of control if needed so that I can maintain myself and not look fcked up to people around me.

If this is your 1st time shrooming I suggest u take less than a gram. Make sure your buddies are sitting to your left and your right because u will want to be comfortable at your fullest... oh and make sure u have good seats, so go there early and pick out your seats to where you are most comfortable in.

It's good to have water but that can also be bad. in my case I didnt have anything to drink, I wanted to avoid using the restroom... being on shrooms I didn't want to have to tell people if they can please move their legs and let me get through while the movie is playing... especially while everyone has their 3D glasses on, for me to do that I would feel soo much like an @sshole. I was really thirsty btw but I dealt with it... I was also really hungry and I dealt with that too. Like I said good thing I didn't take too much shrooms or else I wouldn't be able to deal with it and end up going a little bit crazy.

Make sure you have at least 1 or 2 friends who are sober... incase you do have to go to the restroom or need them to get something for you.


Other than that I really think this movie is made for one to watch specifically on shrooms, its an awesome *feeling* experience... noticed i said "feeling" =)
 
Being force-fed with someone elses imagination is not something I would want to do especially for my first trip.

YMMV though.

I totally agree with this , you want to experience the mushrooms , not a movie , I'd venture out into nature or stay inside listening to records.It might get you really stressed out being around all those strangers. Ive always like eating mushrooms in intamate settings with close friends :)

The movie is yet another product of the universe just like the tree you may love to stare at outside.
I think this sounds fun as shit, though NOT for your first mushroom trip.

This.

I love watching films on psyches, MDMA and many other drugs (maybe not stims though). For a first time it wouldn't seem such a great idea. Watching a film on your first time may or may not be "a waste" of a trip but watching a film in a cinema sounds like it could go very wrong. Or be amazing. I'd err on the side of caution and do something else for a first shroom trip though :)
