Anybody here a fan of the 1999 Fox film Fight Club?
Definitely my favorite movie. I'm yet to read the novel that it's based upon, but I'm going to soon enough. Edward Norton delivers an amazing performance throughout the entire film.
If you haven't seen it, go rent it, or search for it on YouTube (some guy put it up in 14 ten-minute parts).

I like the movie a lot. But, the book is good also.. for different reasons. They both, ultimately, tell the same story, but there are key differences that make them uniquely good.
PS: Boondock Saints is also a good movie.
[Edit: Reading other Chuck Palahniuk novels is good for the head... ]

My God, are you kidding me? I saw them the first time I saw it, but didn't actually get it until the second time through (my second time through was pretty much ten minutes after I watched it the first time, lol). I don't even think I've seen it nine times...yet. I'm around six or seven viewings, but I don't own it, though I should.

Eh. Its ok. It drags on too long.... What it boils down to is his split personality rather than the whole Fight Club.

great movie. Most fun to watch when you're watching it with someone who hasn't seen it yet.

It's a really solid film, I like it a lot. The book is better though, it's actually a fairly quick read, but very good, you should definately look into reading it.

I've been wanting to read more of Chuck P's work. this (http://books.google.com/books?id=-pmNSO6b2j8C&dq=chuck+palahniuk) sounded good.

Fight Club was 'okay' the end where he shoots himself to get rid of his alter ego is a bit silly.
Boondock Saints, this is one of those films that (if you watched it when it was released) came out of nowhere like steam train out the fog and gives you a good punch on the nose. It was totally fookin' awesome.
I have to say, its way better than Fight Club, although its a different type of movie, so comparisons are difficult.

If you want to understand the movie better I suggest you read the book.
Choke is a great read as well.
