Donnie Darko did not impress me much either. Although Emwah would say NOTHING does (movie wise).
but to prove her wrong I say! I SAY! that The Butterfly Effect (or similar genre to DD [not the breasts, but alas the movie.]) was fairly enjoyable and engaging. I also enjoyed the fact that it showed Ashton Cutcher could play a character other than a d**k for brains. I agree in an ambiguous sort of way.
I enjoyed Donnie Darko, but I don't go orgasmic over simple philosophical ideas and social comments that are so ******** obvious that it loses its realism. It lost point for trying to seem deeper than it was. Funny thing is, so many people fall for it.
OMH LIEK DONNIE DARKO IS LIEK THE KEWLEST MOOFIE EVAR
Butterfly Effect was good.
I really wanna see that new Exorcist movie. It looks 'l33t' in every sense of the word (if you could call it a word).
Don't u guyz realised that u've just been brainwashed by hollywood into liking a s**t movie betta than the one they COPIED?!
gonk Seriously. The Butterfly Effect was a well dressed, complete and utter ******** rip-off of Donnie Darko!!!
stressed Let's have a look at this shall we?
DD dealt with the obvious theme of time-travel. This was the first thing TBE stole. Then they gave this power to a better looking actor and let him have more control over it.
2nd point. The words in TBE that say sumthin along the lines of "...so that she may live or wateva." this is the dickhead writer's stolen motif from DD. Donnie goes back to save Gretchen's live in exchange for his own. EXACTLY LIKE THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT.
eek Which was made first?
confused My point exactly.
biggrin And finally how did these two plagerists manage to not get sued like a mutha ********? 3 words: "THE CHAOS THEORY." All they did was base a DD rip-off around the theme that a tiny ripple could cause tidal waves. (Metaphorically.) This was of course an engaging idea but was also a nice little cover up by the directors so that the critics wouldn't dub it: "A Donnie Darko re-make." but instead: "A great theory to base a movie on."
Sure the basic premisis of TBE was pretty kool but in MY PERSONAL OPPINION (Which you're free to disagree against!) DD was and still is the better ORIGINAL movie.
biggrin Holy ******** s**t that was long!!!
