  • everyone watch the video donnie darko explained 100 percent by xxrr23. he did a bit of research and i can tell he visited some of the same sites as me. its a very deep and extremely accurate explanation.

  • you can sit next to the boy.... sorry didnt hear that part??

  • I always cry at that end scene :'(

  • is the gunshot loud in the movie? or not so loud, like in this video

    ps: i don't want it to be loud. i haven't seen the movie and also jump scenes and i will jump if it is loud

  • I'm really sad that he stayed in his room to die in the end. He could have just walked out and lived, like grandma death.

  • @zhafranTP Thats the point of the movie. He realized that he would only be hurting others more if he stayed on earth.

  • @JCHammer315

    no thats totally not whats happening on the ending

  • @menzoznem His GF dies because he's alive, frank dies because he' alive, his sister and his mother die if he stays alive. Thats just what I got out of it. If you have another explanation, please tell me. This is one of my favorite movies and I still don't fully understand everything about it. Maybe the 1st comment I made wasn't the WHOLE point of the movie, but is is crucial to his final decision.

    Let me know what you think.

  • @JCHammer315 hey I really like you enjoy this movie a lot. I know it is really strange to really like this movie but still dont know whats really going on. I had this feeling too.

  • if you wanna know more watch the video that says "Donnie Darko explained 100%" on youtube

    if you still dont get it, message me then, because I have a lot more sites, advice or other answers you might want to look at or ask.

  • :) I love jake

  • This movie literally had everything.

  • okay, this might seem creepy to say, but Donnie Darko is sexy. Jake Gyllenhall FTW!

  • what a brillant movie so different so strange just great

  • OMG 2:41

  • i love this movie so much so fuck anybody who doesnt like it

  • @misscrazyperson nobody, its impossible not to love this movie

  • @misscrazyperson i don't think its possible to hate this movie anyway in fact i don't believe it is possible to do anything but love this movie

  • frank is a bunny because he follows him like in alice in wonderland or if you look at it in a biblical sense frank is the holy ghost that shows donnie the way

  • 17 people are a prisoner of fear

  • good movie

  • jake gyllenhaal ftw.

  • i know this movies not a 4 star movie but its one of my favorites. never gets boring and for some reason i love the setting i dont why but it just makes the movie that much better to me

  • why is frank a rabbit?

  • @spanishlemon101 halloween

  • @spanishlemon101 SPOILER ALERT************ its the halloween suit donnie shot him in **** SPOILER ALERT***

  • @spanishlemon101

    frank being a giant bunny has no real significance, it is just a costume.

  • @spanishlemon101 I saw something on tv that rabbits are a symbol for going for something new or something like that. remember the white rabbit in alice in wonderland and the tattoo in matrix? there are other examples.

  • i totally agree this is a life changing movie + donnie darko reminds me of myself aswel and i do stand up for what i believe in and dont fall into a trap of lies and stupidity. and the song gary jules madworld is a song with so much meaning to it on its own

  • Any movie with a giant talking fluffy animal is good

  • i would just die if i ever saw frank in my bathroom mirror or lurking on my house, standing down the street.

  • I love you Donnie... kisses from italy. Italy loves you!

  • fuck frankie....

  • at 1:54 the cloud is definitely supposed to look like frank so the flood has something to do with him and plus hes from the future

  • I still think the best scene is where They're in the forrest and Donnie tries to kiss Gretchen, then she gives excuses, and one is that there is a fat guy staring at them.

    Love this movie so much <3

  • @meowjellymoon yeah was that fat guy suppossed to mean something?

  • @ianboy27 fat man is in the c i a

  • @swas60 the fat man is just watching over donnie

  • I love Donnie Darko because I can relate to him so much. ok yea sure I don't see a six foot tall rabbit but I've gone through the same emotions he's felt and experiences, and I guess I haven't met a single person yet who has gone through what I've experienced. he just makes me feel so much less alone.

    <3

  • story of my life

  • cellardoor...........

  • the most beautifull movie that i've seen in many years, something simillar happen to me, but i guess that i'm damn for all the eternity now for letting go the change of my life

  • what're you talking about ?

  • cant u all just like the movie for what it was and stop acting like u know everything

  • orrr eat a dick mrmaggot cuz in a particle accelerator when both atoms collide the speed they travel back is faster then the speed of light and im only 16.. read a fuckin book

  • You see that image at 1.54 was is that..i've never understood it. Is it just what the hallways look like when donnie floods it

  • the best scene for me was by far the cinema scene i love Frank's reply and the music, the atmosphere all in all great film. So psychological at first i barely understood it

  • I love the way he laughs before dying... he smiles because he's free... cause HE has CHOSEN.

  • When Frank started talking in this video I think I might have shit my pants haha. I was not prepared for that.

  • where is this song? this extended version?

  • Comment removed

  • thel fim and the song, is lit depress but was really very good film.

  • it's either a tangent universe, a dream, a mind fuck, or (and this is what i think) the director said lets make a movie that will make a pothead say woooooaaaaah! 500 times

  • Though Einstein said that nothing travels faster than light, he never took into account the speed of life.

  • That wasnt philosophical, that was retarded. Speed of life is relative. According to stephen hawking nothing can travel the speed of light because it something was to travel that fast it would stretch through reality because the speed would cause the front and the back end of the vessel to be in two different places far apart.

  • Seriously, there is no need to brag with facts you've learnt from a book, when you can think of other reasons why things are what they are. If didn't get it, I wasn't debating on laws of physics, but since your opinions are so anchored to reality, have you never put a thought of how fast life may seem, when you eventually see purpose in it? Ever felt that your life in younger times went incredibly slow, whilst now, days seem to pass by like nothing. Isn't that philosophical?

  • i get the weirdest feeling of nostalgia every time i hear mad world.

  • Just watched the film...one hell of a crazy hilarious mindfuck sad film..

  • Great video.

    I love this film!

  • twenty eight days...

    six hours...

    forty two minuets...

    twelve seconds...

    that...is when the world...will end...

  • Well Maybe The Guy Who Wrote the film wanted it to be different

  • Hang on.

    If he lived in this alternate universe and saw what would happen if he survived, couldn't he just get out of the way of the jet at the last minute and stop all the bad shit from happening?

  • but if he did the girl he loved still died.

    he didnt want to go on living if she died so he ended his life before she got to meet he and fall in love

  • But he knows how she dies, he just has to not tell her to leave the party and she'll be fine.

  • But Then Something Worst Would Happen, like the whole world ending. And Plus This Is a movie so it cant just be all happy with no death or twist.

  • Why not? Plenty do. What's the message of this film? That you can't change your destiny? Bollocks. Hell, every decision creates at least two tangent universes. Every one of them.

  • Your Right and Wrong, this movie is one of those movies you have to make your own answer for.

  • idk lol

    he wasnt thinking straight

  • no....because he was destined to die, you cant defy death and/or destiny....

    he just wondered what would happen....

  • Isaac Newton was never expected to survive his first night. Fuck Destiny.

  • wake up..... donnie

    best line of the whole movie

  • I Think the best line is "... plus your the Antichrist"(sorry if i cant spell lol XD)

  • I can do anything i want, and so can you

  • 28 days... 6 hours... 42 minutes... 12 seconds. That... is when the world... will end.

  • Best line... "Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?" - Frank...

  • thats when the world will end

  • holy fuck i found it!! someone please explain to me what that scene is supposed to mean at 1:53

  • it's from the director's cut of donnie darko. it's an abstract foreshadowing scene. you're looking at a disconnected school wall on the right and a couple of lockers on the left. and everything is flooded. it's a vision he receives preceding his flooding of the school.

  • cool.thanks...probably the best existential scene in the movie.

  • He was dreaming.

  • I love Donnie Darko!♥

    and the song.

    28:6:42:12

  • He is soo incredibly HOT!!!

  • good ending...

  • Donnie reminds me that guy from the movie American Beauty the one that everyone thought was a wacko and at the end turned out to be the most sane

  • Donnie reminds me of myself is many ways. Only I don't talk to a bunny and i'm against liberals and conservatives.

  • @lashkaretoiba much agreed

  • is this kinda like the butterfly effect

  • @arturocruz09

    Sort of, only It is much deeper than that piece of trash movie.

  • @lashkaretoiba really well i kinda liked that movie... so ima have to check this one out see how it is

  • @lashkaretoiba It much deeper but itdoesn't mean other one crap.

    Things can be in grey area lol.

  • @lashkaretoiba - ditto, only i'd say 'against liberals and respectable conservatives.'

    whitakeronline - org slash blog ; )

  • @lashkaretoiba ah. Same here, except i'm a bleeding heart liberal who hates Limbaugh,....

  • @TheSilentOne50 I think everyone secretly hates limbaugh deep down.

  • @lashkaretoiba what secret????

  • @stox500 Good point.

  • MEGA

  • i am from the future

  • Omg. Omg. I can't even watch this. Frank is so scary. Extremely. I can't look at his face without screaming.. omg.

  • aww. frank is awesome, he's not that scary if you watch it a few times :D

  • my favorite scene is the one in the batroom where Donnie stabs Freank's eye.

  • meh, i like the whole movie the most

    :p

  • I like it when they are at the movie theater.

  • In the special features on the DVD of "Donnie Darko" are pages from Ms. Sparrow's book. Each character in the movie has a special role to play. Reading this gave me a new appreciation of this awesome movie.

  • Are there pages in the special features that aren't in the directors cut version of the movie?

  • I haven't seen the director's cut but we only see the pages briefly in the movie itself (looking over Donnie's shoulder). But I think you can still see them in the special features on the director's cut.

  • frank scares the shit outta me.

  • literally kept getting goosebumps watching this.

  • i fancied jake thingy in this film(L)

  • frank is pretty XD

  • s. darko sequel comes out on dvd may 12th

  • the scene where donnie meets frank in the cinema is classic

  • i wanna be frank for holloween one year

  • everyones life affects anothers life, the outcomes are endless , what you do can change a million destinys

  • POR QUE SE PELEAN EN YOUTUBE?

  • I actually appreciate both films donnie darko and napoleon dynamite, although napoleon isnt a deep film and hasnt really any meaning its still an interesting film with its dry humor, I like it anyway...I just take it for what it is and have fun watching it but donnie darko is a deep film with alot of meaning and it has many different levels to it and its also a multideminsional film!

  • oooh i love this film and this music is very sad...frank scarys

  • how is he a rabbit or whtever

  • did u even see the film?

  • this movie has so much meaning to it, im not an emotiontal guy but this movie makes life have so much more meaning to it, so much purpose

  • Very awesome video. I like it.

  • the song is mad world

  • def. one of my favorite movies of all time (just saw it two days ago and i've seen it 3 times already) frank the bunny is def. my fav. character...humble but menacing!

  • Yeah i really love the film! i was the only one in my family who understood it, i really love the actor who plays Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal) to!

  • This song is really familiar..what's it called again?

  • How can you not know the name of this song?!

  • lol I forgot to post back...I remebered the song just a little while after posting. Best part was that it was in the title the whole time! lol

  • By the main sentence they say. Like in the song, the man keeps saying Mad world

  • This song was used on a trailer for 'Gears of War ' for the Xbox 360 . Great game.

  • First off, always re ad te description. Secondly, its called "Mad World", by Gary Jules

  • Yeah, I read the description.

    Ending with "Alternate version of Mad World'

    Didn't thinkl it was a song at first but later realized it was...I think I already made that clear.

  • i love how Jake does the whole, look over my eye lids to give an eeir 'im daragened' look.

    that look just makes me melt!

  • this is sorta stupid cuz u make it hard to hear the song and what the people r saying

  • this movie is different from others.. yeah.. love it...

  • iv seen this movie over 100 times now and i still find out new little bits of the movie everytime i watch it

    it is my favrote movie

    it will always be

    its just genus, every little bit, and jake played the role sooo well

    if you have never seen this movie go out and buy it because its just awsome and it WILL blow ur mind

  • yeah It's one of those easy to watch movies that never gets old like Fightclub, or nepoleon dynamite or Rushmore. I always keep this one in my dvd player for when I can't sleep.

  • no. you failed at life.

    napoleon dynamite was the worst movie ever made in the history of films and it will remain that way for eternity.

  • Not it was a great movie. If you've lived in a box for your whole life, or your the type of person to laugh uncontrolably when someone trips or makes a fart noise by their mouth, then you're humor is probably not logical. Life in general can be humorious, but the obvious humor is fit more for the unintelligent people that get bored easily and often have cell phones glued to their ears. So if you disliked it, you have a different type of humor than myself.

  • no you failed at life, as to assume your opinion is important.......

  • I'm guessing you agree with all these retarded napoleon dynamite fans and think it was a funny movie. I bet you even bought a t shirt saying "Vote for Pedro" just so you could prove you liked such a dumb fucking movie. That movie was the biggest waste of film ever.

  • i'll agree napoleon dynamite was (in my opinion) a big pile of steaming shit, but i don't knock people that like it..thats just idiotic and simple minded....but i wouldn't expect someone like u to understand (judging for your last comments)...so have a fun life talkin shit about napoleon dynamite and people that watch it.. (LOL how old is that movie anyways haha its 2009!! find something new to bitch about!!)

  • What? I like Napoleon Dynamite! I'm not one of those people who's totally obsessed with it and quotes it every second, but it wasn't a waste of movie, it's just weird, really weird, and if you're people who only like movies that are as phsychologically deep as this one, than you must not like that many movies! So leave Napoleon Dynamite out of this!

  • lol its not that i don't like movies (i love pineapple express, dazed and confused, 40 year old virgin, etc.) but as u said it was weird...to weird for my taste..if u love napoleon dynamite than by all means scream it from the roof tops..but if im asked if i like it im not going to hold back my real opinion.

  • can any1 summerise this film in a paragraph, im thinking of buying it but not sure. thanx

  • buy it. Immediatly. It's one of the stylished/innovative/best movies ever!

  • I don't mean to sound rude, but I'm not gonna summarize the movie for you because that would ruin the experience. All I can tell you is that it is about a paranoid schizophrenic who starts to see strange things after he stops taking his medication. It goes way beyond that however and I highly recommend that you at least rent it. Donnie Darko truly is one of the most innovative and interesting movies of this decade.

  • u missed the bit about time travel :D

  • why did donnie have a gun? did he kill frank?

  • Donnie got the gun from his father's closet - and yes he killed Frank moments after Frank killed Gretchen.

  • yes

  • LOVE this movie

  • HA! I love why are you wearing that stupid man suit! You kinda have to laugh at it or you wil be scared shitless lol. This is definately my favourite movie!

  • did that little kid say "fuck him" at the end???? seriously

  • "he got killed"

  • no at 9:01 he says "its my neighbour fuck him" or something along those lines

    btw i like ur tag lol

  • it actually does say the obvious of "my neighbour...got killed" lol... but you guys rock with those anyhow ^_^

  • im officially scared of guys in bunny suits haha

  • Fucking love this film.

  • "Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?" LOL!

  • I find that creepy, not funny. :P

  • I guess it IS a bit creepy, but in a way...Still a great movie, regardless.

  • lmao it doesnt matter how many time you saw it to actually "get it" read about the philosophy of time travel by the director or watch the dvd with the direc explaining it. you cant understand it without the commentary from the director

  • I just listened to that last night. Him and Jake are sooo funny! xDD

  • best movie ever!!! well not ever but its really good lol

  • Omg, what did you just say? lol

  • yo wagwan G, manz gettin in twisted like spring roll and ting, dis movie iz mor leik geraldina u kno wah im sayin, its not quite gerald but not really tina you knah wah im sayin cuz... aite man keep it G, holla at your boy

  • he knew? wtf that movie is great but confusing as hell

  • yea im a dude too and im not gonna lie i really started tearing up at the end... its a pretty powerful movie. he had to die alone in order to save everyone else

  • this is one of the best movies ever made in my eyes because when it ends it makes you think

  • im a guy and i felt like cryin when i saw this movie

  • i get depressed whenever i even think about this movie even though it's a great movie and i've seen it like 5 times

  • I think its cool.....Ive seen it many times and never have enough
