i thought it was based on real events, and i was totally freaked out

[XprennaX]

I've only seen the Directors cut. I think it's the saddest film I've ever seen.

i should have started by saying,
i agree, this film is a piece ofoverly self indulgent and gloomy chic crap.
...but i liked the fucking bunny costume.

I dont know about that, sure it was over hyped, but the most... I think thats a stretch of your imagination.

[veganedge]

totally agree that this movie sucked. Everybody made it sound to be the best thing ever to come into this world. Total disappointment. I can't help with the ending though, it's been a long time since I've seen it.

i guess there won't be a second part of that movie though. but this little take changes the whole story's conclusion

[xdaddydaycorex]

The first one was the only one that was over hyped, no one really cared about the second one. and even with the whole jar jar thing it was infinitely a better movie than darko.

[DcDuckee]

my boyfriend is obsessed with star wars movies...i think theyre boring and theyre hard for me to sit through

[DcDuckee]

another overrated movie :

The breakfast club

i liked it but it wasn't that special.

it was a product of it's era. and it was pretty great, but I think you have to remember how things were in the 80s for it to really appeal.

[straightXed]

i liked breakfast club.

[SgtD]

i liked the rock'N'roll detective guy, The Adventures of Ford Fairlane
many say it sucks ass
and one overrated film was interview with the vampire

Still, even if you just went with the first, the hype-content ratio was way higher than donnie darko. We've established that it was over hyped, but you still havent addressed your statement that it is the most over hyped. Absolute comments are a pit fall.

how many kids do you know that have star wars episode 1 and 2 icons and avatars? how many kids do you know that still jock episode 1 and 2? there was a lot of initial hype and as soon as the movie came out it all ended. the same is not true for darko. apples and oranges.

i think all the star wars movies were overhyped for no reason.

the orignial 3 (now episodes 4,5,6) were pretty much worth the hype they recieved at the time.
but the new ones seem pretty bad. and the acting is heinous esp. by that kid who plays the soon to be darth vader in attack of the clones. damn he's the worst! and the dude from trainspotting is hella lame too.

matrix was over rated to me.

the first one was good because you could keep up with all the bullshit
the second one was like "man what the fuck are they talking about?"
the third one was "alright, stop it. let's watch another movie shall we?" they tried so hard to make a cult movie they failed miserably
the action scenes were good, nothing more

[xaspirinx]

hmmm...donnie darko...it wasn't a hype here (perhaps because here aren't any depressive emo kids..:))..I watched it in summer at my English ghetto host family (it was the only of their collection which wasn't a porn or war or disney movie..:))..if you don't understand every word and focus a lot the pictures and the atmosphere..it's nice...a nice good night movie...:))

matrix..well..such a you-need-three-times-to-watch-it-completly-cause-you-watched-it-always-after-partying-while-hanging-out-at-friends-and-sun-is-rising-and-you-aren't-able-to-keep-your-eyes-open-and-to-understand movie....over interpreted....becomes worse and worse on every part....kills itself....sad

has anyone of you watched le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain
( I think it's Amélie from Montmartre in English or something like that...)...??it's just beautiful...like most French movies..

or...the life of David Gale...??

that is one of the most annoying hyphenates I think I've ever seen.

[xaspirinx]

hmm...I like it...

it's a really short and simple structured explanation or comment of "matrix"....actually it's just an adjective and a subjective..(ok in this case the adjective is a little longer than usual but esthetically linked by these nice hyphens)...that's not annoying...pah...:))
