So, Donnie Darko. I was warned a mere couple of hours before the show that it was creepy. I am sorely perturbed that no one told me how fucking scary and strange that movie is. One might think the bunny would tip you off, but gods above. It was a very strange and intense theater experience, and perhaps moreso as this was a director's cut. It made me very nervous.

Is it love? Is it fear? Is it self sacrifice? Is it the absolute frailty of our lives? Is it just that we are all alone when we die? I can't sleep for thinking.

To try and take the edge off, I watched O Brother Where Art Thou?. That happens to be another movie I had never seen. Shockingly funny, and I think the parallels to Homer were well played.

Did you see the director's cut or the original release version of DD?

Yes. I started off with the OTR (Original Theatric Release) -- then got the Collector's Edition DVD. When the Director's Cut was released, I got that DVD and passed on my Collector's Edition to a friend.
