Donnie Darko?

Has anyone seen this movie?

Dh and I have been debating...is he a paranoid schizophrenic or a time-traveler?


I'm leaning towards time-traveler...

Hmmm, I thought he was a paranoid schizophrenic but now you got me thinking.

We may have to rent it again

I'm think that he sacrificed himself - so that everyone else lives...

in the end - right before he is hit - he laughs...like he gets it...


but then I think - those drugs in the 80's could be pretty powerful...

Saw it, didn't get it, liked the music tho'

OMG I saw it awhile ago .. but I constantly try to get FH to watch this movie with me (I saw it myself) because I have some of the same questions!

It was so affecting, but creepy. I need to watch it again, but I remember thinking at the time that he was NOT schizophrenic .. that was what they wanted you to assume. I actually lean towards the time-traveler opinion... hmmm...

I love that song! I think maybe even more than the original…

I also thought that “Love Will Tear Us Apart” was a good song for their moment in the bedroom… and that “Head Over Heels” was perfect for the opening…

GOOD SOUNDTRACK…I guess it makes up for how baffling the movie is!

I definitely like it better...I'm not a big Teras for Fears fan...

I thought each song was chosen so well!!!


Joy Division, Echo, the Church, Duran Duran

It just brought me back to my music days in 80s!!!

just found this link if anyone is curious about others theories...



it seems to be revolving around time travel and what role God plays
