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

You've gotta love this film, truly genius.

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.

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

Loads of other little bits you only notice on the second watch, I particularly liked the bit with them walking down the street to the house with Jack walking on the nice dry pavement and Tyler splashing through the puddles right next to him. Also, Tyler's in the hotel promotional video Jack's watching in his room. Amazing what you can learn from director's commentaries :)

SPOILER

His name isn't Jack. He is using the name he got from Reader's Digest.

'Jack's complete lack of surprise'


Interestingly it is John they use in the book not Jack.

More interesting he is called narrator in the credits of the film.

Even more interesting is that he aparently has a name in the book, well it is hinted by him when speaking to Tyler, which goes along the lines of him saying that he isn't Tyler and that the house must be in Tyler's name to which he replies that the house is in John / Jack / Narrator 's name.

Read the book, It's short and merely amplifies your love for the film.

Yeah, like how Jack gets out of the driver's side of the car after the 'paint a self-portrait' 'build a house' crash.
