Most convoluted plots ever created

[Poofs]

Final Fantasy X
the plot pretty much makes sense they just keep throwing out the most random ass twists i've ever heard
its insane and by the end of the story their are only around 2 charachters that are still alive even though they're all still fighing together

Turn a Gundam. In the end, their is no explanation for anything the main characters do, and characters get confused all the time, genders get mixed up, plus the main character uses his super duber awesome robot...to do laundry. He actually does this. Sub-plots also overly present, mucking up the story.

Well, at least I had a hard time following it.

What's it called? I may look it up.

Horray! LIST TIME!
Lucky number Sleven ((You may think you get whats going on by the end of the fifth time watching it, but listen to the directors commentary, you got it wrong the whole time...))
A clockwork orange ((You should go to jail if you haven't seen this one...))
Run lola run ((A foreign movie for most of the world, seeing how its german...))
12 monkeys ((Time travel confusion at its BEST))
I believe someone already called out Donny Darko, so there is that one too.

Well, I think I may have more but I'll leave those up for someone else to call out.

I have never seen A Clockwork Orange, as it's a bit before my time. I do plan on buying from iTunes eventually, though.

I know this is a bit off-topic, but Between the Buried & Me has some of the most convoluted albums in terms of mixing genres and song structure.

I second Donnie Darko. However, I really loved the movie.

Matrix series and Equilibrium as well.

Serial Experiments Lain, that anime will fuck with your head

Yugioh! That anime too, i don't care what that anime say's i refuse to accept the fact that the fate of the world relies on a fucking card game. Abridged sereis is great though

 

[spadeattack]

I love flcl... But answering your question. I can't think of one. >_>

 

[Lord Beautiful]

I'm shocked that no one's mentioned Metal Gear Solid, though admittedly I rather like its story, convoluted though it may be.

 

[Daniel Cygnus]

Assassin's Creed. I haven't played the second one yet, but the first one had some pretty crazy plot points.

 

[Lynxan]

First, Ya, Bobobobobo... however many bos there are in that name, ya, that is a show that kind of reminded me of a Weird Al nonsense song like Albuquerque where it just moves from one random thing to another.

To the one saying YuGiOh, ya, if that isn't bad enough you also have to add that there are hidden schools that are just there to teach the card game... and motorsports? It just keeps getting weirder...

As for me, I'll go with The Wu Lin Warriors, it only lasted 2 episodes on TV, but the rest has floated about the web. For the most part the story is strait forword, well, as much as you can get when you take a 30 year old puppet samurai soap opera and turn it into a kids show.

 

[The Rascal King]

The Others

I'm just kidding, that movie sucks harder than Nicole Kidman in.....anything

 

[Spaghetti]

"Where Eagles Dare" by Alistair MacLean. Not the movie, the book. The plot twists and turns so hard and with such frequency it almost breaks. Still a very good read though.

 

[SantoUno]

Half-Life 2, I'm barely in that place where you find headcrab zombies for the first time but fuck, everything that happened before that with Alyx and her retarded robot-pet thing nearly put me to sleep. I mean seriously, just what the hell am I doing here? Why the hell do they keep praising me? Why should I even care what is going on?

 

[Verbal Samurai]

Mulholland Drive

 

[ProtoChimp]

Bayonetta. Need I say any more.

 

[maninahat]

The Count of Monté Christo. though it is not a bad thing, especially when you consider how most revenge stories simply boil down to the hero murdering the villain and his army of hench men. It is just that the Count seems to have control over so many variables and coincidences that he must be some kind of mind-reading oracle.

I just watched FLCL again, and it still makes fuck-all sense.
