Movies:

Publicly screened for the first time at the Sundance Film Festival, critic Andy Bailey billed Darko as a "Sundance surprise" that "isn't spoiled by the Hollywood forces that helped birth it."Although critically acclaimed, the film debuted in U.S. theatres in October, 2001 to a tepid response. Shown on only 58 screens nationwide, the film grossed $110,494 in its opening weekend. By the time the film closed in U.S. theatres on April 11, 2002, Darko had grossed $517,375.Despite the poor showing at the box office, the film had attracted a devoted fan base. Donnie Darko was originally released on DVD in March, 2002. During this time, the Pioneer Theatre in New York City's East Village began midnight screenings of Darko that continued for 28 consecutive months.Strong DVD sales led Newmarket Films to release a "Directors Cut" on DVD in 2005. Bob Berney, President of Newmarket Films described Darko as "a runaway hit on DVD," citing U.S. sales of more than $10 million. That same year, Darko composer Michael Andrews and singer Gary Jules found their piano-driven cover of the Tears for Fears' hit "Mad World" at the top of the U.K. music charts.

SMURFSFirst of all, Papa Smurf didn't create Smurfette. Gargamel did. She was sent in as Gargamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the Smurf village. But the overwhelming goodness of the Smurf way of life transformed her. And as for the whole gang-bang scenario, it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual. They don't even have... reproductive organs under those little, white pants. It's just so illogical, you know, about being a Smurf. You know, what's the point of living... if you don't have a dick?======================================================= ====HUNGRY HUNGRY HIPPOS!!!!

Heroes:

===========================================================R OBERTA SPARROW (Author of "The Tangent Universe") Chapter OneThe Tangent Universe ....The Primary Universe is fraught with great peril. War, plague, famine and natural disaster are common. Death comes to us all. ....The Fourth Dimension of Time is a stable construct, though it is not impenetrable. ....Incidents when the fabric of the fourth dimension becomes corrupted are incredibly rare. ....If a Tangent Universe occurs, it will be highly unstable, sustaining itself for no longer than several weeks. ....Eventually it will collapse upon itself, forming a black hole within the Primary Universe capable of destroying all existence. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Dear Roberta Sparrow, I have reached the end of your book and there are so many questions that I need to ask you. Sometimes I am afraid of what you might tell me. Sometimes I am afraid this is not a work of fiction. I can only hope that the answer will come to me in my sleep. I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to.Donnie Darko
