Donnie Darko

[Scream]

It may be a oldish film now but has anyone seen this?

 

I bought it under the advice from my brother. I must admit i really did enjoy the film. Good story line, which is hard to come by now in films, lol.

 

But what do you think to all this time travel business that it talks about?

[Louise]

neever heard of it

[Don]

I looked at the subject, and thought it read 'Donnie Dorko' and thought it was about me!

you never seem to heard of anything that i mention. this either means that i'm makin a lot of things up (which lets face it i could be, lol) or your to busy and have let the world rush by. lol

 

Don, how can that be, you're a star mate!

[Louise]

i let the whole world pass me by, i go at my own pace and only take note of the important things in life

 

like beer, food and men

[Chris Hutchinson]

has nothing to do with time travel

 

its about parallel universes...

[Chris Hutchinson]

also, I suggest watching it with commentary switched on.... clears up a lot of things and pointed a lot of things out which I missed (like at the start when donnie is on his bike, its frank who drives past him etc)

I love this film to bits. Think its one of those films that's better discussed en masse in a pub rather than on a messageboard tho cos I'd be sitting here all day typing if I tried to give you my explanation of it!

it has nothing to do with time travel then explain why the film talks about time travel (donnie actually talks to the science teacher and mentions TIME TRAVEL) and why on the dvd it says philosophy of time travel as one of the extras in the explination??????????

 

LMFAO fool!

 

I think what you might be gettin confused with here is that time travel has different forms. Similar to what could be the matrix, i.e. there are many different versions happening that are all planned out. But you see the problem with that is how do you know the one you are seein is the correct version and not just a fake version.

 

What the film talks about is that every living creature's path is projected infront of them and if we can see it then we can theoritcally see our future and hence time travel as we can see into the future. But it fails to realise that for the concept to be founded you have to believe in fate. But fate is has problems to because fate means that we have can't make choices as it's all mapped out for us. So how could we "make the right choice" if it's already mapped out.

 

So if you don't believe in fate you wont believe in this theory of time travel.

 

personally i prefer time travel using super-strings.

Fair doos pincho is a legend he has even inspired my dress sense

 

for everyone else. Pincho was our philosophy teacher, his room was this tiny box with no windows, he stank of BO and never changed his clouthes (thats not the sense he inspired me) and he had huge sweat patches, but he was the ultimate of retro because he hadnt actually bought new clouthes for the past 20 years.

Proper sound bloke, jus abit obsessed with philosophy
