The Ending : As simple as this

[Milk]

Donnie darko goes beyond religion, beyond words


God did not create words, man did

just as man created religion, he had the sense of something greater, but could not grasp on what it was

therfore he created his made a word, god.

god was loving, and god was true

god created man in his image


and yet god did not create religion, nor words

god simply is

god is an entity of thought, god is not of flesh, or earth

god simply is

god is aware and god is feeling

god is the name given to him and he will never know of his name

we are all god, as we are all living, created from the universe, god is not you or i, god is

words created us, evolved us

once we spoke through feelings, and emotions

but feelings and emotions are just words

we once were

we are

and we always be

each of us has the capability of thought

some of us dont

some stars are alive

some dead

with thought we understand what we truly are

with thought we cannot know who we truly are

i am god

therfore god is me

words have a million meanings

and mean nothing

ok basically the movie could be interputed 2 ways. one is the idea of time travel and the tangent universe. the philosophy of time travel states that if a tangent universe is created then the world will become unstable and will shortly be destroyed hence 28 days.donnie creates this tangent universe whenever he follows frank instead of staying in his bed. to undo this he must find a way to travel back in time and reverse all the events that had happened in the movie. another viewpoint is that donnie does all this in the search for god and to make sure that everyone doesnt die alone. the scene where donnie had traveled back into time and he is laughing in his bed suggests that he has come to terms with the afterlife and that death is sometimes better than living, especially if you lose those you love. by staying alive and following frank donnie had lost his mother,younger sister, and gretchen, not to mention the trouble he would be in if he were to be caught. so either the world will end refers to the actual universe collapsing or simply donnies world falling apart. either way its a kickass movie which makes the viewer think
