Java, lol

I was told by a game developer at this seminar that if I want to learn how to program games, a good way to start is with Java and making cellphone games. I plan on learning C++ before Java anyway but around how long would it take a newbie to learn Java or when would it be a good idea to learn Java if not at all?

Your logic is stupid, and it's also American. It's very sad if you can only find fun in 3D games, and it's also American.

That's not to say 3D games suck; they are great, but 2D games can be great as well, all up to gameplay and tastes.
