Am I the only one that didn't know there was another Donnie Darko movie, and that there is another one being worked on by the original writer/director? Looks good man. Should I bother watching this one? Discuss.

No. General consensus is that S. Darko is a pile of utter crap wrapped up in a piece of shit.
Oh well that makes me sad. I saw half of a preview for it when I was watching a movie just now and almost jizzed on myself.
Well, you still might want to take a look at it. I haven't seen it, but I've lurked the boards for it and the consensus is it's just not any good.
I watched it just to see and how was going to be. Terrrible. Just plain terrible. You should still watch it to see how the story kind of moved forward, but I wanted to punch people in the face after that movie.
Quite possibly the worst movie I have ever made myself sit through. It was actually painful to watch, just because it was so terrible. you find yourself just wishing it would end so you can leave and never think about ti again. Also, it doesn't do jack shit with the original Darko storyline except make it retarded and impossible to follow. The actors are terrible, the plot is god-awful, the story makes no sense, and the writing is laughable at best. Worst movie ever.
Well in all fairness the original Darko storyline was already pretty close to impossible to follow. Maybe I'm just retarded but it took me watching the movie twice before I figured out what was going on exactly.
Plus there was a whole meta-reality-website-book tie in that you needed to read to completely understand the movie.
FUN FACT!
Richard Kelly is from my area, and Donnie Darko's high school was based on mine. The neurotic SPARKLE MOTION lady was based on the gym teacher I had sophomore year.
The Donnie Darko storyline was weird and hard to follow, S. Darko is actually impossible. Nothing is explained, nothing makes any sense, and it is far more confusing. It really is a terrible movie djwolford, normally, I watch terrible movies anyways, just to see them, and sometimes I still enjoy them, even for their terribleness, but no fucking way would I ever watch S. Darko again. Seriously, you couldn't pay me enough.Quote:

I read the back of the dvd in a supermarket and merely lamented at how Daveigh Chase did not, as I had hoped, grow up into a fine piece of sex. Then I put the dvd back on the shelf and bought something much more worth watching. Like Battlefield Earth.
rofl oh man if i had that woman as a teacher we would have ribbed the utter shit out of her all yearQuote:

If you mean, made fun of, she was such a goddamn hardass. I'm lucky I didn't have her for Driver's Ed. She had such a goddamn high fail rate. She was a complete and utter bitch. Family life was pretty fun, though, because we had another teacher come in to help out, and they were much friendlier.
