THE HYENA Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 one of the best movies. its not really about donnie darko at all. he's just a pawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeedependency Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 i think you mean one of the best fifty of this decade... way over-rated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE HYENA Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 nope. under rated. maybe over rated amongst scenesters, or younger, " in the know" people, but slept on by a lot more people out side of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeedependency Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 it has an enormous cult following that doesn't even understand the basic themes, yet insists that you see it at once. it's ultimately disappointing when people build it up.

26SidedCube Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 so... someone explain it to me... because it seems like it's just some over-the-top flick that some dude wrote when he was feeling really lonely and regretful about shit he's done in his past. then he threw in time travel, god, schizophrenia and jake glynnenhol to make it accessable to 'disenfrancised' youth. i mean... i didn't hate that shit. i just never thought it was worth putting that much thought into.

26SidedCube Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 so.. is anyone going to tell me what the hell it's really supposed to be about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Wallbanger Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 If it's impossible to understand what the director was trying to do without having him fucking spell it out in the commentary, I don't think he did a very good job. Maggie Gylenhall is insanely hot, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26SidedCube Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Yeah, I sorta feel that if the average dude can't explain the point of a movie and you have to listen to an hour and a half of a director's contrived commentary to 'get it' that just means it's a clusterfuck of poorly arranged ideas that never really hit the target. Unless you're David Lynch.. because that dude's the Salvador Dali of movies so he gets a pardon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Of Hell Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I dont think that just because the "average joe" doessnt get it, that its bad...i just think that people need to fucking think more. its not about the girl. donnie isnt a superhero. its about Frank. The rabbit suit guy, using donnie to save his own life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
