I love the movie for personally reflective reasons of the chaos, disorder and such and just the overall morose tone that was embodied. the storyline of timetravel to prevent the end of the world just so everyone else could live... yeah that's alot like something I do.

Only bunnies piss me off.
Actually in the movie, the point wasnt that time travel could save the world for everyone else but Donnie. It was actually about parallel universe's.
Donnie was psychotic and he died from getting crushed under a jet engine, THIS HAPPENS FIRST, but they dont tell you that. After he dies he ends up in a parallel universe but he doesnt know it and since he was psychotic when he was alive he keeps seeing people and places and events in this parallel universe, in the wrong order. Finally he figures out that he is in another universe and decides to go back to the one he died in to make sure he died but did not end up in the parallel.
And at the end how all the characters wake up and some are crying
and freaking out, its because when someone is in a parallel universe,
everyone he/she encountered is in that parallel too but they think they are just dreaming, so really they way they show the characters throughout the whole movie isnt really them, its the OPPOSITE of how they really are.
We are watching the movie through Donnies eyes.
And Frank btw; was actually Donnies sisters boyfriend and he was a tattoo
artist who was commisioned to do a tattoo of a bunny [Donnie's version of Frank]

The first time i ever watched the movie i also
thought the point was time travel,
but after a few times things didnt exactly click
with that theory.
