"Fight Club"

9:15 BBC2.

Watch it.

Excellent film.

Top quality from start to finish.

Probably norton's best role, and he was very good in The Score and American History X.

I think the most surprising actor in the film is Meatloaf, I really feel that he steals the show from Pitt and Norton with his breast cancer suffering heroics :D

Yeah, all the spliced in frames are pretty obvious.

There are little things, like Norton only paying for ONE person on the bus, and people saying "Excuse me" to get past him but ignoring Pitt.

Weird film.

That's in one of the problem groups, right?

You've gotta love this film, truly genius.

I tried for about half an hour to pause it right on that bit ... to no avail.
Bah!

Yar, that made me crack up at the end.
Most genious indeed.

As are his chats with Marla in hindsight - you can see why she'd get so p!ssed off with him.

Yeah that's there. At the start, before Tyler appears, you get single frame flashes of him although you can't tell it's him unless you pause at exactly the right moment.

So many little references and scenes that you only notice/understand on the second/third/fourth/etc time through. Excellent film indeed.

And why stop there!?

Why not buy the DVD and watch it over, and over, and over, and over and....

I love this film way-too-much, you see. No matter how many times I watch it, I always seem to notice one little difference I did not see before.

Got to ask this - at the end, just before the credits came up, we got the "slice of pornography" thing (one scene of porno quickly flashed), didn't we?

It's great watching it for a second time and noticing so many things.

"It reminded me of my first fight with Tyler" brought a smile to my face.

AMAZING.
