Fight Club
« on: September 19, 2006, 12:15:39 AM »
I recently watched the DVD and discovered that yes, I am one of those people. I'm fixated with that movie, I think it's easily one of the smartest and coolest things I've ever seen. I spent the next 24 hours or so watching the DVD, then the commentaries, then I went frame by frame to catch all the Subliminal Tylers. The next day I borrowed the book from the guy who suggested I rent the movie, and it kicks ass as well.

I too enjoyed the movie. Brad Pitt is at his best when he plays a psyco (12 Monkeys for instance).

Yeah 12 Monkeys is majorly awesome, Bruce Willis is great in it as well as a psycho (maybe).

I don't think I paid enough attention when I watched the first time (years ago I'm sure)...figure it's worth a rent?

Definitely.

Which reminds me, I need to replace my busted-ass VHS copy of that movie with a shiny new DVD.

Both those movies were awesome. Well written, and very original story lines.

Have you read Fight Club the book? It's some of the most efficiently written things I've ever read...it has loads of details and things that make stories really work well, but none of the fluff that I've come to despise in other works.
