Re: Donnie Darko
[ QUOTE ]
I usually don't like "we've had this thread already" posts, but this one is so true. [/ QUOTE ] I've always wondered about this, maybe you can help me out TME.... Would you really rather have him bump up one of those old posts or would you rather he start a new discussion? Just seems like a discussion is more likely to spark again if he starts a new one. I'm not fighting for it either way but i have always wondered what peoples thoughts were...

Re: Donnie Darko
*spoiler alert?*
honestly, I wasn't looking for a 'who's seen it and do you like it thread.' I was kinf of looking to see what everyone thought of the ending and the whole time traveling-bubbles coming out of everyone's chest thing. Also, the last shot of his girlfriend waving to his mother after he got wrecked by the turbine engine. What's up with that?

[/ QUOTE ] Personally, repeating threads don't bother me unless it's something like "what kind of car do you drive" where everyone is going to give the same answer they gave the first time. In that case just read the old thread. I just remarked at this one because PJN's comment was so accurate it made me laugh.

They don't know each other anymore, since Donnie changed the past.

Re: Donnie Darko
Spoilers...
Someone posted an explaination of the ending that I will read after this post, but here is what I recall. Most of the story takes place in a tangent universe, an offshoot, which occurs when Frank saves Donnies life by waking him up and taking him out of the house before the stray jet hits. Everything in the tangent universe to some degree acts towards closing it, guiding Donnie back to that place and making sur ehe dies. He finally follows through on this when he realises that in the tangent universe the events lead to his girl friend dying. So he sacrifices himself for her to live. The bubbles pertruding from people's chest I took to be a manifestation of fate, since the bubbles moved ahead of the person.

Re: Donnie Darko
i think if a thread is a few months old, then it's ok to start a new one instead of bumping the old one
it's when there is a similiar thread in the past week that starting a new one shouldn't be done
