1/10.

Hint: Never say "not trollin!" because then I think you're trolling.

Go watch Transfomers 2

You should watch S. Darko

>OH SHIT THERES SHIT COMING OUT OF HIS CHEST OH SHIT


PROTIP: Donnie Darko was not a horror movie. No need to freak out.

i agree with his guy, 6/10 , i saw it on showtime (stealing cable at the time)but it didn't make a lick of sense but it looked cool, and a cool performance by Patrick Swayze as a pedo, and the the whole scene with jake whacking off that was hilarious.

i agree with OP's points though he needs to get his words out better.

He's trying to state that the film's integrity was lost through purposefully "wierd just for the sake of wierd" moments such as the bunny suit.

While the plot may have been a good one, the only real reason people praise this movie is for the sake of the purposefully "wierd just to be wierd" parts. The true hype is not from its plot, it idealogy or message, its from the hot topic kiddies who think it is dark and edgey for serious and mature kiddies like themselves.

Film was trash, so trashy people hype it up. Makes sense, move on. You are basically speaking to the bottom of the barrel (or dumpster) by posting this here.

>>5922144
yeah. Movie would've been way better if, instead of a bunny, it was an old, pipe smoking indian.

While I agree this movie isn't deep, I think it's just the fact that you watched it with a bunch of bros.

It's a good movie with a decent plot. It's actually a bit entry level dude. If you can't get the plot of this movie, I'd hate to see you try to understand something by, say, Charlie Kaufman (Elementary Level) Stanley Kubrick (Intermediate level) or David Lynch (Sophomoric level). I've yet to see something in the master level, but I hear someone like Godard is supposed to be at that kind of level. Never seen anything by him though.

It's only confusing because of how much they were forced to cut it. If you watch the director's cut it makes perfect sense.

>>5922168
Oh shit, everyone pay attention; this guy sounds like he knows what he's talking about.

>>5922200

Doing so.

>>5922168

OP here,

you got me all wrong. I love David Lynch and Stanley Kubrick. Especially Kubrick, because those fuckers actually, you know, try and SAY something with their weird fucking films. Some actual meaning to it is there.

And Lynch and Kubrick have actual genuinely weird fucking shit in their films, like, weird fucking shit. Not guys in bunny suits in the mirror. That's not weird, and that's not profound.

>>5922168
Watch some Godard bro, seriously.

>>5922323
Where the fuck do I start?

Dudes directed something like 92 films. And he's still going, christ!

I agree, fuck this movie. It creates its mythology by making you read pages of that goddamn book. And then it uses that book as a basis for all of the supernatural shit that happens.
I think the reason most people think it is very deep is because they don't understand the supernatural shit.
And of course when they don't understand something that looks cool it must be cool.
Its just a lame teenage love story with really shitty time travel in it that people HURR DURR on and clap at.
FUCK THIS MOVIE

>>5922364
His earliest and latest are his most accessible. Just watch the classics first, Breathless, Band of Outsiders, and Alphaville to start. Then watch his early lesser-acclaimed (better) films like La Petit Soldat and Les Carabiniers. His newest film Notre Musique is pretty entry-level too. STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM THE LATE 60'S/EARLY 70'S FILMS until you've seen those.

This is actually one of my favorite movies

>>5922487

Sorry faggots, it's on the list,... if you like it you suck

Sage, because this movie came out in 2001. The only reason you rage at this movie is because some emo kids liked it. If not for them then none of us would bother talking about it at all.

Those kids grew up years ago and you didn't.

The Dark knight had some interesting ideas, and I wouldn't call it a bad film (it's not great, but not bad)
Eternal Sunshine had more going on, but again not a great film

otherwise, I totally agree: rest shit; do avoid

>The Dark knight had some interesting ideas

Are you referring to idea of producing a film that panders to man-children?

>>5922533

why is the whole top list even there? all of them are at least good (besides American History X that one is shit) I guess this is the "HURR TOO POPULAR TO LIKE ANYMORE" movie lists?

>>5922631
See
>>5922594

You know, I went through about a six month period freshman year of college where I thought this movie was AMAZING. Now I realize that it's one of those movies that's blown way out of proportion by its fan-base, kinda like Fight Club.

I agree OP. I saw this movie years ago in my teens, since everyone talked about it.

Needless to say, that was the day I came to understand why no one likes teenagers and their opinions are automatically invalidated.

The Dark Knight - The joker was a rampaging philosophy major.

lol, no

the great panda adventure and three ninjas are better

the first half of american history x is good, i usually turn it off when he goes to prison.

>>5922674
It's trash

The worst part is, most teenagers, and people in general, don't have the patience to go through fuckawesome and deep movies like pic related.

>>5922641
not that, that's all the pretentious bullshit

I meant the stuff like the idea of the two boats; sure it's preposterous, but it's actually kind of a neat riff on the idea of making the superhero be in two places at once

I agree with the OP, I liked this movie better when I was called "Harvey"

>>5922674
only easily excitable man-children can tolerate that shit

>>5922698
You only need patience to watch the shitty redux version. There was no reason to add all of those pointless scenes

Original version is a masterpiece though

>>5922712
lol, that made my day

>>5922674

its good if your planning jihad on crime

>>5922727
yeah, I agree with this
the Redux version had some meaningless scenes, whereas the original is consistently entertaining with its craft and ideas

>>5922698
Exactly what is wrong with fast pacing and action movies? Not everyone is interested in sitting through methodical "deep" movies, some just want to have a good time without having to get all emotionally involved, its just fuckin entertainment you fags take trivial shit way too seriously, hence why /tv/ is one of the worst boards on 4chan.

gonna have to agree with the op...

>>5922727

Didn't mean to post the Redux poster. Original all the way.

Y'know OP, I feel similarly about The Shining.

Goddamn that movie sucks. It's neither scary nor suspenseful. It tried too hard to be "disturbing" and just wound up being stupid. It's mind numbingly dull. The kid can't act, Shelley Duvall is a horsefaced bitch. I enjoyed Nicholson's performance as much as the nexy guy, but he couldn't save this movie from sucking.
You guys need to get Kubrick's dead dick out of your mouth. He's made some fantastic movies. This wasn't one of them.

in before too deep for you

Cool concept, but I kinda failed to notice it until someone on /tv/ posted about it later. I was raging pretty hard at that point.

(wasn't it a dog suit?)

all work and no play makes YOU a douche bag

I fucking hate this movie.

Fucking HATE it.

Not trollan' either.

The plot is so idiotic and purposely confusing, and worst of all, I had to watch it with a bunch of idiots who spent the rest of the night trying to analyze this bullshit film.

There's nothing to analyze because the writers didn't GIVE you anything except a boring movie, a nonsensical plot, and a bunch of scenes that tried way too hard to be trippy, but just ended up being "OH GOD THERES A GUY SHOOTING JEWS" or "OH SHIT THERES DEAD JEWS EVERYWHERE SHIT"

Fuck this movie, and fuck anyone who likes it.

>>5922825
the point is, It's creepy as fuck

>>5922897
I agree 100%

Its the Inglorious Bastards of its day. What was PC was different back then, and the only rule jewporn follows is be extremely PC.

And bash hitler in a childish, passive aggressive way.

They should have put up more of a fight when 6 or so million were supposedly rounded up.

>>5922897

that's basically how most people reflect on the movie now

fuck you

Fuck this movie, and fuck anyone who likes it.

>>5922794

yeah well you just don't GET it

I liked the Director's Cut less.

I had an alternate mythology for the film which still managed to work. It's actually centered around Frank.

I don't think it was ever really explored, but Frank the Bunny had Donnie target those people and things which tormented him while alive.

Think about Frank taking a turn or ten in the "kiddie porn dungeon" -- no wonder he's so fucked up and full of rage. Then he goes to pull some dumb shit and gets KILLED by this Darko kid for accidentally running over this girl, which is bad, but maybe not Shot In The Fucking Face bad.

So this rift opens up and Frank sees his chance ... what if he can lead Donnie around? Donnie's the perfect stalking horse and, if he pulls it off right, Frank lives ...

Just a thought.

Mostly I liked it because it was a good period piece. Those fucking cheesy counselors in that time period were all over the place, just as an example, and it was nice to see a movie pay attention to the kind of that kind of bullshit we saw so much of in the late 80s.

>>5922934

I don't care if it was jewporn, Inglorious Basterds was hilarious and awesome. Schindler's List is as preachy and pretentious as any other Spielberg film. I personally think Spielberg is an overrated hack.

Donnie Darko wasn't bad. I think it was an excellent example of a writer-director with a grand vision that exceeded his actual abilities.

Also not being an underageb& and remembering the 80s means I nostalgia constantly when watching it.

Does it have plot holes you could drop a 747 engine through? Oh yeah. Is it as good as Darkofags keep screeching it is? Of course not. But it's gotta be one of the most perfectly atmospheric and interesting movies I've ever seen. (especially when you haven't read the godawful little booklet that explains everything, and it's a fucking stupid explanation, robbing you of the mystery that makes it so much fun.)

this movie was meh. if it did well commercially, it wouldnt have been praised so heavily by its "cult" audience, true story.
