Donnie Darko rerelease

Elijahfan · 24-06-2004, 05:11 AM

i'm a big fan of Donnie Darko, has anyone else seen that movie. it wasnt a hit when it first came out but now they are rereleasing it, the director's cut in theaters again this summer. i think it's already havent in the UK but not the US. if u've seen the rerelease, any comments (is it just the deleted and extend scenes from the dvd) and did you like it? or if you've seen the movie at all?

I've never seen the film before. Is it worth watching?

the whole rabbit thing (and even just the sight of it) scares the shit outta me

me too! i had to hide behind a cushion evey time it came on.

yeah it's worth watching...though there are parts that are a little hard to understand (time travel, Frank the rabbit) but just go with the flow, it's more about the message.

i think the rabbit scares just about everyone...i was reading entertainment weekly around 1 am and i turned the page and there was a full page picture of the rabbit face. scared the shit out of me. turns out the magazine was doing an article about the rerelease and how it's a cult film.

Pffft...Rabbit is NOT scary...and the movie is bloody awesome...everyone must watch it

Saw it at Best Buy the other day...I thought about getting it because of Jake Gyllenhaal, but then I saw the freaky looking rabbit thing, peed my pants and left it on the shelf. I bought Star Wars instead.

I LOVE that movie! We own it! no-no-notorious!

Elijahfan · 25-06-2004, 01:55 AM

what?!?! the rabbit's scary...the creepy teeth and big eyes! freaks me out everytime... and donnie darko was on sale at best buy where i live but i didnt get it cause i'm broke

Louie · 25-06-2004, 03:55 AM

The rabbit wasn't scary, I thought it was funny. Great movie, I really liked the whole time travel thing with the wormholes and stuff.

Elijahfan · 25-06-2004, 03:58 AM

okay, but i'm still freaked by it. it is a great movie and has tons of stars in it, for a indie/low budget movie. wonderful music too, Mad World song, but too bad they dont have a soundtrack cd for it

Richard · 25-06-2004, 04:04 AM

I actually saw this movie on HBO, but never really paid close attention to it. I am planning to buy it on DVD but not anytime soon. I'm waiting for the final release, I don't want to buy the version out now then later find out another is about to surface. Hate that.

Elijahfan · 25-06-2004, 04:07 AM

me too, Richard, i was about to buy it since i saw it at Best Buy. cheap price too, like 10 dollars US but i'm holding out for the rereleased version. lol....just thinking about the movie and remember the part when Donnie starts to pleasure himself in front of the therapist. funny everytime

Hazzle · 25-06-2004, 08:23 PM

Rabbit was pure comic genius...you lot are like people who find CLOWNS scary...

Pygmalion · 26-06-2004, 03:26 AM

I'm with Hazzle. Frank (the rabbit) was SOOO cool!!! Specially in the movies when he took his head off and the guy had no eye....makes me want to watch it again

Hazzle · 26-06-2004, 03:47 AM

This film is the dog's bollocks...all must watch it...now.

*5 month bump*

So I bought Darko for $10 at Best Buy last week. And after watching, I was really really really confused. Then I read the Philosophy of Time Travel, which is actually one of the DVD features. Then it all started to make sense. Overall, it's an interesting movie. The only thing that pissed me off is that my dvd always freezes on a certain scene...fucking Best Buy.

DefyingGravity · 01-12-2004, 11:07 AM

I like this movie... it took a while to understand what it was talking about though. :icon_redf

Need I say that I love this movie? No, didn't think so

Pete · 02-12-2004, 03:40 PM
