I was just watching this again yesterday and decided to rip up one of the songs from the OST. Tears for Fears, Head over Heals was the song of choice. So here is my little remix of it, in its beta stage. There are some more things I want to work with (like the ending) but all in all its coming together well. http://168.9.26.28/Tears4Fears_HeadOverHeals_GNAT.mp3 |

How modest of you to say so. I would question your definition of "well" |
||||||||
|
|

|

Well that would be my opinion, all others are welcome and encouraged. I'd love to hear what others may have to say about it, and I would love to hear any advice your or anyone else would care to offer. |

I saw this movie this saturday and was impressed. I don't know why but this movie never made it to the cinemas here, so I don't know much about it. Is it "based on a true story" or something since it takes place in 88? |

I bought the dvd just about a week ago and I was mighty impressed too! I think the eighties is a perfect backdrop to the story. I don't know why though... it's just something about the feel of that time.. Maybe they chose the eighties to best suit the the people they aimed this movie at in the first place. Did you watch it on dvd morsto? |

I downloaded it. I have been working in psychiatric institutions, and I was really impressed by the guy playing Donnie. The way he looked, moved, and talked, sometimes manic and sometimes sleepy because of his medications. It was like watching the people I've worked with. Very impressive. |

Yeah its a great movie, I picked up the dvd at best buy for 10$ so if you don't already have it you should be able to find it cheap. I'm not too sure why it never made the theatres either, but its well worthy of it. There seems to be a large following of the movie though, so thats good. "so exactly how does one suck a fuck?" "I'm beginning to have signifigant doubts about your dedication to sparkle-motion" |

"Why are you wearing that stupid man suit?" Fuck, it's a good line. |

yeah, great movie, great quotes. i'm pretty sure it's not based on a true story. |

No, it's not based on a true story. It's just set in the 80s because, damnit, more films should be. |

It didn't really seem like the 80's |

one of the best movies of the past years. Really quite good especially considering it was the directors first film. Its almost a cult classic allready |

I felt the same... |

how in the hell would it be based on a true story? Here is what was in the book, its a good read http://www.tangent-universe.org/dump/time_travel.html |

Well, why should they put it to 1988? I thought maybe there were something about that airplane-engine, that something similar did happen (or at least a newspaper story) that year. |

Apparently they made a few mistakes. I found this on some site on the net: Anachronisms: The movie is set in 1988, but vehicles have late-'90s-style license plates. Anachronisms: Prof. Monnitoff refers to the then-current 1988 edition of "A Brief History In Time" by Stephen Hawking as he suggests wormholes as a method of time travel. However, the chapter on wormholes was not added to Hawking's book until the 10th anniversary edition released in 1998. Anachronisms: The bottle of Old Spice in Donnie's medicine cabinet has a picture of a modern yacht with a tri-cornered sail. This logo didn't appear until the mid-90s; in 1988 the logo was a clipper ship. There is also a stick of Suave deodorant featuring the label designed during the '90s Crew or equipment visible: When Donnie and his dad are talking in the car - just before they almost run grandma death over - a clapperboard is reflected in the window behind Donnie's Dad's head. Continuity: When Donnie first talks to Prof. Monnitoff about time travel, the slinky is inside his collar in one shot and outside it in the next. Anachronisms: When Donnie grabs the keys to the car on the last day, there is a Blockbuster card. The style of card shown is not one from 1988, it is a much more recent one. Continuity: In the scene where the students are being asked to write "They made me do it" on the board Donnie writes after Sam Bylan his and walks past the police/principal. The principal pulls a pen out of his top pocket and writes a question mark next to Donnie's name. However, the two names previous to Donnie's were already crossed through. It's unlikely that the principal would get his pen out after every signing. Anachronisms: In the school play scene, a lantern called an ETC Source 4 PAR can be seen. ETC did not introduce the Source 4 lantern until 1992. |
