Donnie Darko was an impressive film.

I watched Donnie Darko on the weekend and it kicked ass! Then I went onto DonnieDarko.com and played their little 'game'. Very original concept. Who else enjoyed this movie?

I saw it. It was pretty good, very imaginative. I think it would have been a bit better if it had been more clear in the movie, but the amount of information on the website is pretty good.

A beautiful film, supposedly the director wanted the message of the film to be a little unclear in order to make it more mysterious seeming. I loved it.

I thought it was fairly pointless actually. What was the message? Everyone's better off if he's dead? Good soundtrack, apart from Gary stupid Jules slaughtering Tears for Fears.

At my school many of us have formed a cult like groupe who worship frank, and we all have shirts that say "why are you wearing that stupid human suit?"
and our favorite insult is 'go suck a feck" :twisted:

This is very strange
Why would you write a haiku
for Donnie Darko?

though yes, I tend to agree- except for that "in my opinion" part. I take it for fact

Yeah, it is a great movie.

Did they re-release it or something...that movie came out three years ago. It seems that alot of people have been recently talking about it for some reason. :?

I thought the movie was pretty impressive. Though its a little difficult to understand if you miss a part. It was a great film concidering the it was the directors first film. I've watched it many times and I kind of like how everything ends up relating to something that happens later in the movie. Like when he finds the walet on the ground and when he was reading about that in their mental/phisical ed thingey. I thought that the music was great and all the songs sounded good...except for that wierd song that the the kids did at the talent show. The actors all worked well and it had very witty humor but alsow sad parts and its cool how he can get all of that to fit into one movie. The only thing I dont like about it is the stuff about space travel and stuff. I found it really confusing because i've never studied the subject. It was an all out great film and its in my top favorites.

Neon Genisis Evangelion is, in my opinion, a superior mindfuck, but that's just me.

It seems that alot of people have been recently talking about it for some reason. :?It was nixed post 9/11 cos of the plane crash theme, but came out on video and DVD and sold by the buttload, and the Gary Jules song was the Christmas number 1 in the UK
