Donnie

1 - A fandom phenomenon, defined when fans of a film or tv series band together to imagine that there is a romantic or sexual connection between characters who have had, in reality, either no interaction or sparse, flat interactions.

Originating from the so-called "Donnie" fandom (a portmanteau of Daryl and Connie) of the AMC TV show The Walking Dead, who insist that 2 characters who have had less than 6 minutes of direct interaction during the course of more than 32 epsiodes spanning 2 years are canonically in love. None of the aired scenes were intimate, sexual, or even particularly personal, thus giving rise to well-earned fandom mocking of the Donnies. Donniers, also known as D-con, are known to be hostile to *Caryl fans, and often attempt to weaponize social media to quell fandom enthusiasm for the 10-year relationship between Carol Peletier and Daryl Dixon, who are currently series leads on the The Walking Dead.

2 - A humorously imaginary thing. Wishful thinking.

Despite a severe lack of shared screen time, the character of Daryl Dixon has said that he and Connie are both part of a larger family of survivors, but denied any romantic feelings for her with the words; "It's not like that. Not at all." It can, as of Season 10, be safely assumed that they are more like cousins, in-laws, or other non-immediate family relations.

* Angela Kang, Executive Producer of The Walking Dead has publicly stated that Carol and Daryl are soulmates.
Dude, your fandom is so Donnie. Those two haven't even met!

Those two haven't spoken one sentence to each other in the show. That ship is a total Donnie.

He's never going to ask you out, stop being such a Donnie!
Your boat sank? Must be a Donnie.

donnie brasco

Widely renowned as one of the most successful FBI Informants, Joseph D. Pistone aka. "Donnie Brasco" (his undercover alias) was an undercover FBI agent who infiltrated New York's powerful Bonnano Mafia family from 1976-1981.

The Bonnano Family at the time was headed by Carmine Galante, who through the Pizza Connection, became the single largest importer of heroin into the United States in the 1970's. The FBI was determined to learn the particulars of his smuggling operation, and chose Joseph Pistone to pose undercover as a jewel thief.

For 6 years, FBI agent Joseph Pistone lived a double life undercover, and slowly caught the attention and admiration of top Bonnano "Capo" (Captain) Dominick Napolitano, who along with Bonnano family "soldier", Benjamin Ruggiero, grew to trust Pistone so much they revealed to him many important clues about the heroin distribution network.

After 6 years within the ranks of the Bonnanos, Pistone had fooled his close associates so well they had proposed to make Pistone a full member of the Bonnano family, or a "Made Man".
The only catch was Pistone was asked to execute Anthony Indelicato, who was suspected to have been involved in the murder of the former Bonnano family boss Carmine Galante.

This signalled the end of the FBI's undercover operation within the Bonnano family.
Two days after Pistone was proposed to undertake a "hit" (or contract killing), FBI Agents informed Napolitano and Ruggiero that their long-time friend was an FBI agent.

Johnny Depp plays Donnie Brasco in the film of the same name.

The real Joseph Pistone left the FBI and now works as a free-lance consultant on organized crime for law enforcement agencies.

The evidence collected by Pistone led to over 200 indictments and over 100 convictions of Mafia members.

Dominic "Sonny Black" Napolitano was killed by the Bonnanos in 1981 for having allowed Pistone to infiltrate the family.

Donnie Darko

An excellent yet overrated cult movie made by Richard Kelly.

Donnie Darko is a troubled adolescent who's life is saved when a giant bunny rabbit orders him to follow him one night. A plane engine so happens to crash on Donnie's room, but he is gone with frank (which is why his life is saved)

Realizing that his life should have ended then, Donnie finds secrets of physics and experiments things related to time travel and a book, that simply cannot be a coincidence. He is also going through a major teenage confusion, doubting humanity and especially adults.
Just look at how the parents' reaction is different to the childrens', when Donnie is bashing Jim Cunningham on stage. They are shocked, while the teens actually relate to the REALISM of Donnie's words.
Things cannot always be devided in only two paths.
Life isn't that simple.

Donnie Darko, the movie, is a presentation of many philosophies that only very few people ever think of.
"Destruction is a form of creation"
Etc, etc.

Fantastic, yet kind of overrated movie by most.
I see ALOT of people who "respect" and "worship" this movie yet cannot understand crap about it.
Some like it just because it's oh so underground/cult, and never actually try to think about the message flowing in the movie.
Sad.
The children will have to save themselves because the parents have no clue.

Donnie Darko

An excellent cult movie about a borderline-schizophrenic adolescant who starts having visions of a six foot rabbit named Frank, who has come to warn him that the world is coming to and end. A thought provoking film about time-travel, apocalyptic visions and the wonders of reality.
"Twenty Eight Days, Six Hours, Forty Two Minutes, Twelve seconds...That Is When The World Will End."

"Some people are just born with tragedy in their blood."

"If the sky were to suddenly open up, there would be no law, there would be no rule. There would only be you and your memories."
