Donnie Darko "Sequel" = WTF

[potatobroth]

Faith in what? Why not make a sequel to Goodfellas? Shawshank Redemption? Magnolia? Donnie Darko was a good movie that told its story well. At the end of the movie, some characters' futures were explained, and some were not. Heck, every movie ends with characters going about their lives but that doesn't mean there is a story there that is ripe for a sequel.

I'm sure a team of writers could continue the story for any movie out there, but what's the point? Sequels are used as money makers, and in the case of a non-franchise movie, tend to be quite poorly developed.
