Not quite. Avoiding Potter because one thinks it will turn one to witchcraft is being both ignorant of the story's message and point as well as being foolishly superstitious. Not feeling inspired or drawn to see Avatar because one has no interest in neon alien hippy Smurfs is simply personal taste. Some people are inspired to go see certain movies, others are motivated to see others. I recently greatly anticipated the release of Boondock Saints II. Does that give me a right or reason to criticize those who did not find Boondocks an interesting draw and accuse them of being stupid? No, of course not, because not everyone is required to be pulled into the anticipation and excitement of the same things, even when those things become societal fad du jours. In other words, avoidance due to ignorance and opting not to partake due to lack of any interest at all are two entirely different things, and the latter is a completely innocent and respectable situation.
