@@jacksonisonline2049 The director may have wanted a more genuine reaction from the two. You'd be surprised at how many directors make calls like this. Sadly, sometimes it ends up permanently injuring actors when directors take it too far and not tell their crew about changes in some stuns. One of the stunt doubles were intentionally not told that part of her advanced stunt was going to be changed by the director's orders, because he wanted her to really feel the "impact" by unexpectedly getting hit or something by REAL AND DANGEROUS "props". This resulted in her losing limbs and all kinds of horrible things. It should only be done in moderated things like this Fight Club scene.

Yea it's fun to rewatch it knowing the twist, you'll find all kinds of little hints that Tyler and the Narrator are the same person. Heres a few: 1. The Narrator calls Tyler on a payphone and Tyler doesn't answer, but then calls him back. If you look closely, it says on the payphone "No incoming calls allowed" so it's impossible for Tyler to have called him back. 2. When Tyler crashes the car, Tyler crawls out of the passenger seat and pulls the Narrator out of the drivers seat, showing the Narrator was actually the one driving. 3. In the scene where they're hitting golf balls at cars, the car alarm only goes off when the Narrator hits a car, not when Tyler does.

From a taoist philosophy perspective, at the beginning of the film Edward Norton's character is dominated by yin or femininity. He suppressed his masculinity or yang for so long that it eventually resulted in the manifestation of Tyler Durden. At the end of the film, shooting himself caused him to suddenly achieve balance of the two sides.

Its an accurate satire of how people who feel crappy about themselves fetishize self destructive behaviour, like how the guys say he's so tough proudly after he shot himself and feels like crap.

"you'd think his work would be concerned that his face always had bruises...and bleeding..." actually, the story grew out of the fact that in the writer's real life, he noticed that the more he was injured or bruised when he went into work, the less people would ask about his life, and the less attention they'd pay to him. so he wrote a short story, which later became chapter 6 of the book, about a guy who would go into work with fresh cuts and bruises from fights, and everyone would pretend not to notice because of how uncomfortable they are.

The ending is open to interpretation, but my favorite way of looking at it is he got rid of Tyler by finally doing what Tyler told him to do: accept that one day, he will die. So he shot himself, not knowing if he'd survive, and was finally free of Tyler. Also yes, it's a completely different movie when you watch it a second time.

The bombing of the business buildings at the end meant that to find their way, they have to get rid of their compulsive ties to the material. In the begining of the movie Tyler is tied to a work he hates just to be able to buy the next IKEA furniture, then the car, then the house etc, when he starts the fight club, the most important thing is that it's *free* and lets in anyone brave enough to punch him, meaning bold enough to get out of their way, then when he start recruiting for his project, every applicant has to abandon the life behind him and start a new one with no possession, then the result is that the predatory bank system that enslave men before they even have a chance to decide for themselves will implode if it can't suck them dry anymore.

Fun fact: the punch to Brad Pitts ear was unscripted, so his reaction to getting punched outside the bar is genuine

Fun Fact: Her "Grade school" line was at one point during the production of the movie "I can't wait to have your abortion", "I wanna have your abortion", or something along those lines. The movie studios lost it with the abortion line so the grade school one was used.

Yeah, being British she didn't know what "grade school" meant and agreed to say the line because she thought it meant something like high school. Wasn't too pleased when she learned what it REALLy meant.

One of my favourite films of all time. The more you watch it the more you notice stuff you missed before. Its such a clever film. Definitely watch it again if you get the chance. It's one that needs to be watched a few times to be fully grasped. It's incredible.

Not gonna lie I saw this pop up, I went to the kitchen. Got my red wine, put my headphones on. Got lost in it like it was a show I was watching. Aha

The novel has an even darker ending. He wakes up in the hospital, unable to move. A janitor leans close and says "don't worry sir, everything is under control."

When i was a teen i loved the movie for its soundtrack and crazy characters, older you get better you understand it.

My theory is when he shot himself, he finally accepted his death and was willing to take a life without hesitation. And in doing so, evolved and no longer needed Tyler to push him to change.

“I say never be complete. I say stop being perfect. I say let’s evolve, let the chips fall where they may.”

iirc they were originally going to use actual recipes for making explosives but the studio came down hard on that. it's so good on the second watch. it's really interesting watching the others characters reactions to Tyler/Jack knowing the twist. imagine it from Blondie's perspective. one minute you're Tyler's favourite, next minute he's beating you half to death.

It’s great to watch as a first time viewer has their assumptions of the characters change as the movie unfolds 😂

So glad you're doing movies again. You should watch "Snatch" next. Another great Brad Pitt movie

Fight Club is one of my favourite movies of all time. Now you know the plottwist, watch it a second time and it's even more crazy and brilliant!

When I first watched Fight Club, my friend told that after I watch the movie, watch it again. He was right it is completely different movie the second time around.

Fun Fact: The reaction where Edward Norton punched Brad Pitt in the ear was not in the script. He was really hurt when he did it lol

The reaction to the twist... Wonderful! I remember sitting down to watch this with my partner, without telling her what to expect. Just telling her this is an amazing film, you've gotta see it... She wanted to punch me afterwards. 😅 That twist really comes at you like a sucker punch.

As someone who watched this movie when it first came out in theaters 20 years ago, thanks for allowing me to relive that experience through your reactions watching it here for the first time!

I love how open and instinctive your reactions are! You are right that Fight Club is a mindfuck of a film, it's a lot to take on in one go and it does stay with you for a while afterwards so your reaction is similar to a lot of people. I sort of loved how confusing and overwhelming it is the first time, it's a challenge to keep up with it.

I forgot how dope this dust brothers soundtrack is

The bit about taking panicked breaths of oxygen during a flight is more or less true btw

I love it when people are watching it for the first time and do not see/react to the Tyler Durden blip flashes on screen in the early parts of the movie.

Wait, did you just say that Ghandi was a Peado?!.....

'they don’t teach it in school but it’s pretty well known' Well, judging by you... there might be "schools" in england that do "teach" things like that. Otherwise how would you be you... :D

American History X would be a great one to do

18:26 There was still alot of uncertainty about how AIDS spread when Chuck wrote that scene.

If not already on your list I recommend, “The Usual Suspects” next.

I love some of the fan theories about this movie. My personal favorite is that people with multiple personalities never have only one other personality, so both Marla and Bob aren't real people either.

Fight Club is analogous to buying new sneakers as a kid...I felt like I was given superpowers when I wore those new kicks....watching Fight Club gives me confidence that I didn't earn just like those 👟 .... just a gratifying vibe!

31:34 That fourth wall break was perfect.

There's a comic book that continues the story . Marla is pregnant and Jack is terrified that it's Tyler's child meanwhile the Project continues and it seems Tyler had big big plans

One of my fave films of all times! Excited for this reaction 😁😊

I watched this movie on the first day when it came out in theaters. As a teenager, it had a profound impact on me. I didn't do ANYTHING with my life since then.

Your reaction to Marla's comment about her experience in grade school is my favorite.

Fun fact, Brad Pitt actually chipped his tooth, learned boxing, grappling, taekwondo, and soap making for his role as Tyler durden

He shot himself in the cheek, not into his skull. The gas expansion would likely still be lethal, however.

This was a unbelievably great reaction! The editing was phenomenal!

The big guy hugging Ed Norton is Meatloaf. He is a singer that was big in the 70s and the 90s.He made an appearance in the musical movie Rocky horror Picture show. Meatloaf’s best albums are Bat out of Hell 1 and Bat out of Hell 2.

I've seen a couple of reactions to this and watched with a first time viewer, but yours was the best yet!

This story was so very well written.

Congratulations, you just had a near life experience.

Jared Leto’s original prosthetics after the fight were so disgusting to look at they had to change it to what we see in the movie. Originally his nose was split down the middle with a bunch of blood.

I wish i could erase my mind and watch it again for the first time!

Reaction suggestion: "The Fisher King" (1991). You'll love it.

Am I the only one seeing all of the "subliminal" clips of brad pit in these parts that Alyska chose to show up to the 3:05 time mark. Did Alyska intentionally cut it that way to include them??

when Bob throws that donut I will never not loose it.

That Pixies song in the end of this film.... EPIC!

19:11 That's the biggest hint for the twist you're going to get right there.

Also, there’s something lesser known that connects the first fight and the office scene. So, on the Fight Club soundtrack, there is a song called “Jack’s Smirking Revenge”. Part of the song plays either during the “Hit me as hard as you can” section or the montage of when Fight Club was still in the parking lot. Another major part of the song plays during the office self-ass-kicking.

thank you for the great editing with the pop ins and stuff ... Always need to appreciate editing time lol

haha "Where is my mind" playing in the background as she sits there with a blank expression trying to work out what she just watched.. that was perfect.

Marla Singer is also not real, she's another personality inside Narrator.

Loved the reaction! Would definitely love to see more film reactions from you. My suggestion: Requiem for a Dream (also with Jared Leto but its one of his first staring roles and also very highly rated). Great acting all around.

Looking forward to more David Fincher movie reactions. This was one of my first DVDs and I still remember my reactions the first time watching it.

Editing on this vid on point. The slow zoom in on you while the song playing was pure gold

If you rewatch the car crash scene, you can see that Edward Norton was sitting in the passenger seat while Brad Pitt was driving, but when they crawl out, Edward Norton climbs out of the driver's side. When I first saw that, I called that out to my friend, who had seen it already, as a continuity error. 45 minutes later I understood why he was chuckling at that.

Bi polar is a description of extreme emotional imbalance, what "Cornelius" has is more closely related to disassociated personality disorder/multiple personalities.

Great to see you back! And doing one of the great insanity movies, too.

Did people notice He had a wall of people's IDs. He was doing what he was doing to the store clerk to at least a hundred people

This is the Fight Club. It’s never been just a Brad Pitt fighting film. Remember...never talk about Fight Club.

Here's a recommendation. You should see "The Crying Game"

"uuuhmm... what?!" and that's how you know when a film is freaking awesome.

“In the world I see, you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockafeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Towers. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn and laying strips of venison on the empty car pool lane of some abandoned superhighway.” -Tyler Durden
