I am completely obsessed with this movie.

I've watched it sooooooo many times and yet I don't fully understand it!!

What do you all think of it?

I'm obsessed with this movie too! (Proof of my obsession? I made a t-shirt... a photo is in the attachment... on the back it says "This is when the world will end")
I watch it a lot... I think I understand most of it, as much as it can possibly BE understood... even the writer/directer can't say EXACTLY what it's about.

Anyone been to the official website? I think it's http://www.donniedarko.com but I'm not entirely sure. It's alsmot as fun as the movie!

It's not scary... well, I guess the music and images could be, but if you've seen the movie it's just intriguing.

its good, but it sorta cashes in on peoples emotions using stereotypes. ie donnie darko is the cool main guy that is easy to love, patrick swaze's character is easy to hate, the sparkle glitter coach etc. adaptation beat donnie darko that year if you ask me...

Ok so i wrote a big thing in response to this, but then I realised that there is no point since each person has their own opinion.

So I deleted it, and shall instead share some Donnie quotes...

"That's what's so illogical about being a smurf... what's the point of living if you don't have a dick?" -Donnie

"What's a fuckass?" -Samantha

Donnie: I made a new friend today.
Dr. Lilian Thurman: Real or imaginary?
Donnie: Imaginary.

"I'll tell you what he said. He asked me to forcibly insert the Life Line exercise card into my anus." - Ms Farmer

"A famous linguist once said that of all the phrases in the English language, of all the endless combinations, 'Cellar Door' was the most beautiful. " - English teacher
