They were trying to fire him because he was over the department that made the defective parts. Even though, he would have been fired for sexual harassment, they could use him as the scapegoat, should the other company find out before or even after the merger. Someone had to take blame, and his hire ups set him up, because it was either them or him.First up:
SO WHY THE FUCK WERE THEY TRYING TO GET RID OF MICHAEL DOUGLAS TO BEGIN WITH?? It was never established (at least not in a way that I could pick up) what firing him would have achieved. And they went thru ridiculously complicated (tho the sex scene was hot) ways to do it.

This movie was based on a very short fucking short story, with no room to expand AT ALL. This movie was destined to suck donkey balls the minute some greasy idiot in Hollywood decided to green light it.

Anti-consumerism. Listen to what he says in the beginning and if you didn't pick up the clues throughout the film listen to what he says about the building they blow up in the end.

This is probably the only movie I truly did not understand.
After the airplane engine kills dude in the beginning WTF is going on. Did the movie revert back to a different time line where it missed him and he ended up dying in the end anyway or was he dead and the events that took place in the movie never happen?? I've watched this flick like 3 times and I still don't fully understand it.

The Usual Suspects (1995)
Roger "Verbal" Kint (Kevin Spacey) is being interrogated by Dave Kujan, US Customs (Chazz Palminteri) and Jack Baer, FBI (Giancarlo Esposito) about an exploded boat on a San Pedro pier where they discovered 27 bodies and $91 million worth of drug money. The only survivors are a severely burned and very scared Hungarian terrorist and Verbal Kint, a crippled con-man. Reluctantly, Kint is pressured into explaining exactly what happened on the boat. However, my question is what part(s) of his story were true and what was contrived (Remember, many of the names used came from the bulletin board and some if not all of the events were made up)?

Re: That makes no DAMN sense! Films that confused the hell out of you GO! (SPOILER AL
I think Keyser Soze was a drug kingpin/killer ala Pablo Escobar and master liar. The incident at the pier was just a drug deal gone bad. I honestly think "Verbal" made everything up. It was a drug deal gone bad, a lot of cats got killed, police rolled up and he had to come up with a story. The guy who played "Kobayashi" was probably his partner in crime.

The plane engine that crashed into Donnie's (Jake Gyllenhaal's) room came from a portal in the future. After the engine goes through the portal (at the end of the countdown), the whole world rewinds back a month to the beginning of the movie. This time, Donnie gets killed by the plane engine, instead of being led away from it.
A simple explaination of the movie and it's ending based on the DVD commentary is that Donnie had to make sure, with Frank the rabbit's guidence, that the chain of events that caused the engine to go through the portal occurs. And if he failed, the portal would have caused the end of the world (like Frank said)

Re: That makes no DAMN sense! Films that confused the hell out of you GO! (SPOILER AL
i'm noticing a recurring theme - movies that you have to sit down, stop what you are doing, and pay attention to; niggas hate
1) Memento (not even confusing, it just goes backwards)
2) Usual suspects
3) Fight Club
all three of these films are considered to be modern cinema classics; and usual suspects has been referenced in hip hop tracks for YEARS now...
but co-sign on mulholland drive and Donnie Darko - neither of these movies made any sense, period....mulholland drive has the best lesbian on screen sex scene, and that was about it.

Plot
Tom Sanders (Michael Douglas), a Seattle software executive, learns that a promotion he'd been expecting has, instead, been given to Meredith Johnson (Demi Moore), a former girlfriend of his from long ago. Later that evening, Meredith calls Tom into her office, ostensibly to discuss the project he is working on. Once Tom arrives, Meredith aggressively tries to resume her romantic relationship with him. Tom resists (although with difficulty) as he is now a married family man.
The next day, Tom discovers that Meredith has filed sexual harassment charges against him. His colleagues refuse to believe his protestations of innocence and the company pressures him to accept reassignment to a new location. Tom does not want to do this as it would destroy both his career and his family. However, since no one believes in his innocence and Meredith is now his boss, he appears to have no choice but to accept reassignment or be fired.
Just as all seems hopeless, Tom receives an e-mail from someone identified only as "A Friend", directing him to a Seattle attorney (Roma Maffia) who specializes in sexual harassment cases where men are the victims. With the attorney's help, Tom counter sues, alleging that Meredith harassed him. After Tom successfully makes his case before a court mediator, the company backs down and gives him a large pay raise. As Tom is celebrating his apparent victory, however, he receives another e-mail from "A Friend" warning him that the affair is not over and that all is not what it seems.
Tom eventually realizes that Meredith and the company president (Donald Sutherland) are setting him up to take the fall for defects in the product that Tom is responsible for in order to cover up their involvement in changing the quality control specifications at the plant. They plan to pin the blame on him at a conference the next day announcing a merger with another firm at which Tom will be made to look incompetent, thereby giving them a reason to fire him. Tom cannot access the company computer to prove the existence of the plot because Meredith has locked him out of the system. He spends a tense and frantic night getting the information through a demonstration machine left in the hotel room of the executives of the merging company and from a colleague at the plant who owes him a favor. Armed with this information, he manages to turn the tables on Meredith at the meeting, expose her involvement and get her fired instead of him.
After Meredith leaves, the company president gives her job (the one Tom had originally expected to get) to the company's low-key Chief Financial Officer (Rosemary Forsyth). Tom then learns that the CFO was behind the "A Friend" e-mails. In the end, Tom is left in the same position he was at the beginning of the film, but only after having narrowly escaped losing both his career and his family. He is also left musing over the fact that three women (his wife, the attorney and his new boss, the former CFO) were responsible for saving him.

First up:
Michael Douglas works for a computer hardware firm thats about to merge with another firm. At one point he gets caught up in a sexual harassment suit brought on by the headhunter (Demi Moore)hired by the company. The lawsuit fails and Douglas is exonerated. THEN he's set up to look incompetent at a board meeting by the same woman and again he beats her. All the while he and few others are being considered for a promotion and theres some men vs. women back and forth while people are being considered. In the end a woman gets the promotion, Douglas keeps his job and all's well that ends well.
SO WHY THE FUCK WERE THEY TRYING TO GET RID OF MICHAEL DOUGLAS TO BEGIN WITH?? It was never established (at least not in a way that I could pick up) what firing him would have achieved. And they went thru ridiculously complicated (tho the sex scene was hot) ways to do it.
Anyone pick up on WHY they were trying to get rid of him in the first place?

Re: That makes no DAMN sense! Films that confused the hell out of you GO! (SPOILER AL
I understand the foundation of the movie. But the end had me like When he thinks of some shit and goes to that place or time period, does he really go or is he really crazy, imagining the shit. When they showed his father in the movie, he was in a crazy house. At one point of the movie, he was in a crazy house also. But at the end of the movie, he goes to the beginning and set shit straight. Now was he fucking time traveling or was it all in his head(like his father). Cause when it ended, he was walking with the chick of his dreams. Now if the movie was on some "crazy in the head shit", then the movie should have ended the way it did, but then showing him strapped to a bed in the crazy house drooling or some shit. Was the muhphucca time traveling, or was he crazy?!

The movie basically is like, the littlest things in the past can have a big effect on the future....thus the butterfly effect which states that a butterfly's wings can turn into a hurricane.
He made a journal while growing up and whenever he reads it as an adult, he goes back to the incident he reads about and he can change the events in that moment in time. However, each time he does that,something has changed in the present day.
In the director's cut, he realized that everyone would be better off if he never existed, so he went back to when he was still in his mother's womb, and he choked himself to death with his umbilical cord.
