Mandy Moore = Madonna

Southland Tales if you are not familiar with the mythology that it is working with = stuff happens.
Southland Tales if you are = stuff hapens-- and why, how, for what purpose, and what happens afterward.

I need to watch that again, several times, after doing some reading. I'm not sure how I feel about that as a movie-- I think, in some ways, a piece of art can fail if you have to know a "secret" language to interperate it. On the other hand, that might very well be the point.

Whatever the case may be, I now know what I can say myself at any point I feel like shattering is despair:

I am A Pimp. And Pimps don't commit suicide.

Yes I have. It's interesting to compare the similarities and differences between the time travel stuff in both.

The comics reveal that Justin Timberlake's character played Donnie Darko in that timeline's version of the movie.

See, nothing really explained, just made weirder.
