Donnie Darko creator Richard Kelly is dropping a true sequel to his masterpiece in novel form! We are finally getting closure!

I'm not the only one who is hyped, right?

You're the only one who's hyped.
>>
>>25628013
Why aren't you?
>>
>>25628010
It isn't necessary. It will end up being trash.
>>
>>25628017
He has been doing nothing but writing for 16 years! How can it be bad!!!?
>>
>>25628010
It's 20 years too late. That era is over. Whatever the resolution is going to be so far from what DD was getting at.
>>
>>25628032
Eh? The film itself wasn't set in the present day so why is it a problem?

I am a decrepit millennial, I'm 33 I fucking need this!

>>25628050
Because it was a piece of art, created for an era. That era is over, and we can't go back. A novel sequel would be made for now, and not then.

We already know that period pieces aren't about the time they're set in, but the time they're made. Why would you think it would be different for a novel?

>>25628053
It's over for the early 00s art.
>>
>>25628256
The Hagakure talks about this
>>
Will there be negroes in the movie, or it will look like Clinton's America?
>>
>>25628735
that would be hispanics and indians who would

be non existent
>>
>>25628010
It's just "An Occurrnce at Owl Creek Bridge" with a Gen X soundtrack lol, why do people shit their pants over this movie?
>>
>>25628977
You wouldn't get it Lil zoom zoom
>>
>legacy sequel 20 years later

Why would anyone be excited about one of these today? Haven't we seen this idea fail often enough?
>>
>>25628981
I'm 40, I saw it in theaters, and a few times since. I'm sorry that you think it's something elevated, but it's about as deep as The Sixth Sense. If you need any other proof that Richard Kelly isn't some genius, you can watch Southland Tales.
>>
true sequel already dropped, sweetie
>>
>>25628010
>>>/tv/
>>
>>25628997
>filtered by Southland Tales too
lol lmao even
>>
what do you fellas think about the theories that don darko is predictive programming for don drump and do you think the book will expand on that
>>
>>25628013
Someone tell him
>>
Donnie Darko is a shitty movie. Only emo kids liked that crap.
>>
>>25629023
It's getting a NOVEL.
>>
>>25628010
What was wrong with the first one?
>>
>>25629842
not enough diversity
>>
>>25628010
I still haven't watched it
