Donnie Darko [10th Anniversary] [Unrated Director's Cut] [4 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray] for $4.99 + free shipping

Sep 17, 2012 3:40 AM

Donnie (Jake Gyllenhaal) is a bright and charming high-school student who also has a dark and willfully eccentric side; he does little to mask his contempt for many of his peers and enjoys challenging the authority of the adults around him. Donnie is also visited on occasion by Frank, a monstrous six-foot rabbit that only Donnie can see who often urges him to perform dangerous and destructive pranks. Late one night, Frank leads Donnie out of his home to inform him that the world will come to an end in less than a month; moments later, the engine of a jet aircraft comes crashing through the ceiling of Donnie's room, making him think there might be something to Frank's prophesies after all. The rest of Donnie's world is only marginally less bizarre, as he finds himself dealing with his confused parents (Mary McDonnell and Holmes Osborne), his college-age sister (Maggie Gyllenhaal), his perplexed analyst (Katherine Ross), a rebellious English teacher (Drew Barrymore)...more.

I love Donnie Darko and I've seen it a million times but I only watched the Director's cut once and that was one time too many. My advice, stick with the theatrical cut on this one.

@silveri: This, this, 1000 times THIS. The writer/director really got off his leash when given a free reighn and a budget for F/X. Sucked all the mystery right ou of the film. and du,ned it way down in the process. i dont know anyone who has seen both cuts and prefers this one. I woldnt but it if it were 50¢.

You know it really wasn't THAT great of a movie. I mean it was good, yes but to me the soundtrack is the highlight but some people's obession with the movies makes me question their motives.

@silveri: I'm torn on that. The director's cut explained the theory behind time travel a lot better and I liked those little snippets from the book. But one of the reasons I really loved the movie in the first place was the vague ending, which the directors cut changed.

...So yeah. I guess it's worth seeing at least once, but I didn't dislike it.

That being said, I'm wondering how much new stuff this has. I know the old BD had the two versions on blu-ray, and then the same DVD from the old special edition. If this is just that with a digital copy and a DVD of the movie...I can pass.

EDIT: Yep, that looks like what it is. Still a fantastic deal if you don't already have the movie on BD

Note that the original DVD release that was $5-$10 had all of the 45 minutes or so of deleted scenes omitted from the theatrical release. So even though the movie is better with the mystery in tact, a viewer could still watch everything originally filmed, albeit out of order.

In for one even though it's directors cut.

Everyone complaining about the director's cut, note that this Blu-ray includes BOTH versions of the movie!

What if Donnie really did need to move himself forward on the fear/love line in order to progress beyond death, but being a rebellious teenager he interprets the messenger as a pedo (ala holden caufield) and instead is presented with this alternate method to move him along? By choosing to go back and subject himself to death in order to save gretchen, he forwards himself to the love side of the fear/love line and thus progresses out of purgatory. This might mean that the opening of the movie, with Donnie Darko on his bike looking out on the dawn with that inexplicable smile, is actually the end: him moving on. Sparkle Motion!

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
