:!:
A heads-up: For the next Xixax Home Film Festival (of One), we'll be sitting down to visit our good friend Donnie Darko.
Date: Sunday, September 14th.
Time: 9:00pm (central time)
i leave you now with a re-run of our other explanitory thread, already in progress..
:arrow: :arrow: :arrow:
QUESTIONS:
• I don't have (film name). Can I still participate? If you don't have the movie we're going to watch, there's probably still time for you to purchase, rent or borrow it. Everyone is welcome, whether you're watching the film with us or not.
• I don't understand. Are you watching the movies online? No. That would be public exhibition, which would be illegal. The way it works is that everyone watches DVD or VHS of the films in their own home, on their own TV, in their own DVD player or VCR. The films can't be shown online legally.
• You're a freak. Why are you doing this? Because someone at xixax.com suggested it, and I thought it would be a lot of fun.
• I still think you're a freak. OK then.

See you there!

Excited 'cause this is one of my favorite movies, not-so-excited because Conan O'Brien's 10th Anniversary Special is on that night as well. So yeah, torn and stuff.

and in nyc and wash dc at midnite on fridays and saturdays.
The banner is nice. Maggie Gyllenhaal, in the movie, is nicer.

I'll be there. I just hope it's not one of those insanely scratched-up Netflix DVDs.
i think i'll be there. i'll be starting at 5in the morning and catching the bus to school arounf the end of the film.
*tucks away a little nugget fo safe keepin'*

with the black wig shes super hot!
Sunday Sept. 14? That's Conan O'Brien's 10th Anniversary special! I wouldn't miss it for the world! Especially since I never cared for DD anyway....
But if there's ever a festival for any Martin Scorsese, Oliver Stone, or Stanley Kubrick films, I'll be there. :-D
i'm getting a little anxious. i was away from xixax during the pta fest, so i'm looking forward to this one.
yeah me too
This is gonna be awesome! I'm really looking forward to it.
feel free to hop in early for pre-show festivites...gates are always open.
I'd probably be in on this tonight, 'cept for I lent the dvd to a jackass a couple weeks ago and still haven't gotten it back.
god, ihave a cold and i drank over 20 cups of joe today and now i cant sleep, what time is it central time now? someone?

Right now it's 8:50 central time.
okay, thanks.
Good Show....
I liked the idea of Office Space next. nay or ney??
Quote from: aclockworkjjnay or ney??
that's some choice you've got there.
aclockworkjj's right, let's watch roccos reverse gangbang or something.
no seriously let's watch big lebowski, everyone loves and own that movie.
sorry i had to bail so soon. i got an ultra important phone call from my pops (im broke u see) and then i remembered that i had to read a 300 paged book for the morning and i hadn't even started. (stupid 300 paged book)
i did have fun while i was there. did anyone save the text from the chat room? i was laughing my ass off when we were having trouble getting the thing started at the beginning. picolas and his countdowns, hah.
big lebowski sounds fun. i think sundays r the best day for these things, although is there a better time we could do it at as to incorporate more members, the european ones in particular?
Quote from: ©bradpicolas and his countdowns, hah.
I am still laughin' bout that...
3....
2....
1...
*start*
PoooooFFFF!
:::mixes a white russian::::
When should we do this thang?...thou, I am still leaning on Office Space. Didn't we nominate that into the xixax hall of fame or something awhile back?
i'm still laughing at when homer is obsessed with going to klown kollege and doesn't notice that ppl are on fire..

Quote from: mogwaihow about lord of the rings (first one)?
splendid idea mogs. it would be nice and long. and we could do two towers shortly thereafter. this would be a good one to do closer to christmas, when return of the king comes out.

i like that idea too, let's do that for christmas. but let's still watch big lebowski, that movie is just begging for one of those chat things.
i would like to propose that we do it in the afternoon though (central us time that is), i don't know if i can handle one of those 4-6am shows.
We should really watch some porn:
Picolas: 5
Picolas: 4
Picolas: 3

you mean people like me who were watching Conan's 10th anniversary?
Last night was a lot of fun. I expected more people than what we got, but there was still plenty of conversation going about. I'm really looking forward to the next one!
I didn't log it because frankly, I was bored during the chat itself - let alone reading it after the fact...
It was more like a Xixax chat-together, which was great.
The movie took a backseat. I'd have enjoyed the movie more without the chat. But, if it takes a movie to get us all together, I say we do it again soon!
i enjoyed it
i dont see why we cant do it more often
OK...I mentioned this during the screening, and no one knew what the hell I was talking about. Sorry it's taking me so long to get back about it, but I just watched this again with a friend for halloween.
Donnie's dad mentions a high school friend dyin', named frank. I am under the impression that it's Frank's (the rabbit) father (tho maybe too young to be, cause he died on the way to prom...but I feel there is some sort of significance no doubt), that he is referring to. Anyone care to think about this idea with me...sorta a foreshadowing event?
the scene I am speeaking of is...in the 3rd chapter...total elapsed time: 14:20.
on the commentary RK says it was just about keeping the Name frank in conversation and thoughts
yeah, I suppose I should listen to the commentary sometime huh?
yeah listen to the Jake and Rich one because the cast one kinda sucks. Drew Barrymore Blah Blah Blah Blah
Quote from: Bankyon the commentary RK says it was just about keeping the Name frank in conversation and thoughts
Yeah, but I was just fuckin' with ya
Is there a official Donnie Darko thread here? Can't seem to find it with help of google.
