    The first was an ok movie, but not one I wouldve thought for Jake Gyllenhal to have broken out in. I wasnt impressed much by it.

    Yeah, it's an utter abortion of a movie, and it also completely destroys the credibility of the first film (which was good, actually quite better than the book).

    American Psycho 2 is also directed by Morgan Freeman. Here's the trailer. Although it appears to be as awful as a fan-made trailer, I assure you that Morgan Freeman REALLY made this movie. I wonder if Donnie Darko 2 will be as reviled as American Psycho 2.



    Spoiler:Not THAT Morgan Freeman

    Gotta disagree with you on that one. Though the film was amazing, and I am a huge fan of it...I personally enjoyed the book more than the film, and think it did a better job conveying itself than the movie did. Both are absolutely wonderful works, but again I gotta give the nod to the book in this case.

    Now as for a sequel to Donnie Darko...yeah, pretty much what everyone else has said. I enjoyed the movie, and a sequel is just so beyond unnecessary its ridiculous.

    American Psycho 2 broke the rules of its own predecessor when BATEMAN DIED IN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF THE FILM. >.<

    And yeah, WTF?? More hope lost when the original director is unattached...ah well.

    Why would this terrible sequel ever be "groundbreaking"? I'm confused...???

    This could be even more pointless than Terminator 3 and the Neverending Story sequels...

    I don't see a point either. Then again, I couldn't fathom the point of the first one either. Seriously, I was (kinda/sorta) following it right up till then end...then...what?

    I watched s. Darko yesterday, and I wish I could tell everyone here it was good, but the movie really was a steaming pile of nothing special. It was a boring story that threw in elements of the first film and tried to pass it off as a sequel. Samantha Darko, kinda sorta stuck in a time/space paradox just like her brother.

    Personally, I blame the parents.

    Traditional family values distort space/time, you read it here first. ;) 

    I saw it. I agree with everything you've said - especially the part about the "nothing special". There isn't enough going on to hate, the plot sort of meanders around, bumps into a couple of visual setpieces the director dreamed up and then just wanders off again. It didn't even have the courage to be bad.
