Yep. I like Fight Club the book/movie as a portrayal of severely fucked up people but I'd be wary of anyone that enthusiastically calls themselves a fan

I still haven't got around to seeing either of these movies. I think I really have missed out on pretty much nothing at all.

The movie I recall so many people missing the point of was Full Metal Jacket. I swear they must all have had a VHS copy that cut out just before the lavatory scene started.

Starship Troopers too, in the same vein.

Fight Club is actually a good movie as far as movies go, in the sense that it's entertaining enough, full of eye candy, and worth watching once at least just to see what got everyone else missing the point

I honestly don't understand how someone can watch the Fight Club movie and come away thinking that the movie is on Tyler Durden's side, or agrees with him.

[(Anonymous)]

Same. I mean like yeah the character is cool and "badass". That was the whole point! A lot of villains are charismatic and that makes them more dangerous, not less

Though I get the feeling a lot of teen boys didn't know what to do with their brand new man crush on Tyler Durden and assumed if they want Durden senpai to notice them, it must have meant he's the hero of the movie

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, honestly, Brad Pitt might just be too sexy to play the role.

I will say I think it's probably too simple to say that Tyler Durden is the villain - I think it's more of a dialectic thing, where Durden is set up as the antithesis of modern civilization and its values, and the satisfactory resolution comes from synthesizing the two opposites rather than picking one or the other.

[(Anonymous)]

In the book version it's less clear, but in the movie he's definitely a villain imo considering what happens at the end - which is different from the ending of the book! You kinda lose the dialectics and theory part of it when they're actually bombing people

[(Anonymous)]

I don't totally see how that follows tbh

Maggie Mae Fish actually has some thoughts about why Fincher's direction obscures any such purpose.
