Wake up, Donnie.
Welcome back to Day 2 of the S. Darko marathon. Okay, I've been getting a lot of criticism comments (that I removed) saying I suck because (at the bottom) it says S. Darko is a movie I want to see. Incorrect. Those are just some new "good-looking" (i.e. CGI, special FX) movies coming out. (DVD/Theaters.) Now, I never said I want to see them at all. I mainly want to see Astro Boy. And S. Darko just seems cool, but doesn't look good... like, you should never try to make a sequel to a classic. (Like Donnie Darko)
Now, this S. Darko marathon is just so people can understand Donnie Darko clearer with my middle schooler brain.
Okay, here you are:
The Main Explanation
Problem: The problem is that the main explanation is a very, very confusing concept and they are right. It produces many problems for one's mind to comprehend.
Answer: Okay, this is gonna be long.
Before I explain the time periods, (days), I will explain the main concept.
- Main Concept
* A living receiver (lr) must guide the artifact (a) to the original position it was in in order for it to travel back through the primary universe (pu). The person most affected by the (a) is chosen to be (lr) and so the person must be the center of the tangent universe (tu) and is the only one who can close it. (a)s are made of metal, always, and the (lr) must, always, and will, always, retrieve it with great interest and curiosity. The (lr)'s job is to send the (a) back to the (tu). If a person is deceased somehow in the Tangent Dimension (tu/td) the become the manipulated dead (md) and have special powers in which allow them to contact the (lr) via the fourth-dimensional construct (fdc). The (md) will normally set an ensurance trap (et) for the (lr) to ensure the (a) will easily and properly make it's way back to the (pu). At the focal point in the time paradox (tp) as the (tu) begins to disappear, a wormhole (tear in the universe) will appear. "If the Ensurance Trap is succesful, the Living Receiver is left with no choice but to use his Fourth Dimensional Power to send the Artifact back in time into the Primary Universe before the Black Hole collapses upon itself." If the (et) is not successful, the (tu) will restart from the beginning of the creation of the (tu), and will continuously repeat itself, until the (tu) is closed.
- What Donnie Goes Through...
* Donnie is the living reciever and must retrive the artifact from inside the tangent universe. The part of the movie from when Frank guides Donnie away from the crash, to when Donnie creates the crash is in the tangent universe. Everything else is the primary universe. Frank is the manipulated dead. He was deceased in the tangent universe somehow, and can now contact the living reciever via fourth-dimensional construct; the mirror. Donnie's worst fear is dying alone, correct? Well, the ensurance trap is him dying alone because when Gretchen is murdered by the real Frank (not the manipulated dead one) Donnie becomes alone. And in one of the earlier time loops (there have been more then one) he obviously found out how he would have to die alone, and Gretchen would live in the next time loop, never knowing Donnie existed, or Gretchen would die, and Donnie would live on in his life, knowing he is alone forever. (THE ENSURANCE TRAP WAS EITHER HIM REALIZING HE MUST DIE ALONE OR GRETCHEN'S DEATH.) When the real Frank (again, not the manipulated dead Frank) is shot, he dies in the tangent universe, and thus, he is now the manipulated dead. So the old (md) Frank disappears and a new one is made. If Franks do not complete the tasks, then the tangent universe will restart again.
Examples:
-Time Periods
October 1st - Donnie wakes up from the "restartion" of the new time loop. He laughs because he realizes he just survived his previous time loop.
October 2nd (TU)- Frank wakes Donnie up, and saves his life from a crashing jet engine.
October 30th (TU) - Donnie uses a wormhole to shoot the jet engine back through time in the primary universe to October 2nd.
October 2nd (PU) - Donnie laughs as he realizes he is about to die alone, but happy, knowing he saved the universe.
I will add some new examples next time.
