Wow I saw that movie finally. I was thinking it was going to be sorta good, NOPE! It may have been because I was tired, but I could not keep up with ANY part of it. It really really really really really confused me.
:noid :noid
I wasted like 3 hours of my life I could have been wasting on dying in the P-39 :lol

Don't take it the wrong way, but you are completely insane to not get that movie. It's the best. :aok
-
The first rule of fight club is it's an awful movie.

It was way better than I expected.
Nice to see Meatloaf with a haircut. And boobs.

I was disappointed by the fact that nobody in the movie knew how to fight.
-
Great film, but if you waited until after 9/11/01 to see it, then you missed your chance to really get it without being confused by all sorts of strange emotions and hysteria.
-
Why not read the book? The movie is good and as in most cases, the book is better. Then, head to your local library to read some more Chuck Palahniuk.
-
I like that movie.
-
Good movie.
-
I doubt that many kids would be able to relate to any of the characters. Watch it again in ten years, angels.

Then you missed one of the main points of the plot. I suppose you are some kind of ninja, right?

Stick to South Park and Futurama.

:lol Ninja? You watch too many movies. I like fight scenes that are realistic. None in that movie really were. A real fight doesn't make good cinematography though. It's very, very rare to find a movie with a fight that looks real. I enjoyed the movie, but those guys couldn't fight their way out of a wet, paper bag.
As for me, I train MMA 3-4 days a week when I'm not traveling. Muay Thai, Boxing, Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and some Vale Tudo (anything goes). All full-resistance grappling, and full-contact striking, usually giving up anywhere from 40 to 120 pounds against my training partners, a mix of jits guys, amatuer, and pro mma fighters. Sometimes I win, sometimes I barely hold my own, sometimes I get mauled. I'm no badass, but it's a skill-set I enjoy having and will eventually pass on when I have kids. If you'd like a sparring match, that can be arranged (4oz gloves, whatever safety gear you feel is neccessary. Don't do point-sparring, so sorry if you're a krotty guy).

Yeah... I live in Texas... I've got firearms... just not enough of them... because, obviously, there's no such thing as having too many guns.

Are you effin' kidding me? "Selling their fat tulips back to them." has got to be one of the most intelligent and to the point lines ever uttered in a movie. I thought the movie was brilliant.
-

well, like I said, you missed one of the points of the plot.

And HOW, dang, I can almost smell the unburned kerosene in his hair from the big JetClue that WHOOSHED right over his head. ;)
The movie isn't about MMA superstars, it's about nobodies, folks who sit behind a desk and type mindless reports and bus dishes and do all the mind numbing work that emasculates the predator part of our brain. It's about what happens when they open up the window, stick their heads outside, and yell at the top of their lungs "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore!" Well, a little of that last bit might have leaked in from another movie, but you should get the idea. Hopefully.

Superstars? I got choked unconscious by a poolboy last tuesday. :lol
Don't get mad at me because the movie's casting department was too lazy to take a trip to a real fight club and recruit some extras :)
-
Woosh :noid
-
Yep, again. Indy, you're missing an element so basic about the movie that it's hard to describe. I got nothing.
-
:lol sticking feathers up your butt doesnt make you a chicken.

If you took ten random guys off the street, how many would be able to fight well enough by your standards of knowing how to fight?
I doubt more then one, maybe 2.
Thats just one reason why your missing the point. ;)
-
Remember the first rule of fight club. Shhhhhhh ;)
-
One of my favorite parts from it is the mission they are given where they are to pick a fight, and then purposefully lose.
While it isn't real, I think it has gotten it spot on how non-confrontational our society has become.
-
Fight club isn't real? :frown:
-
The movie itself.

wow, you didn't even have to duck for it to go over your head.

well guys, let me rephrase this. It was a good movie till around the end, it may have been because I was tired but, I did not get ANY single point of it after about half way. Like how it turned out his friend was imaginary. I was still watching it, but it was the stupid kind of "anarchy" sort of movie. (atleast it was anarchy against the clintons!! :D)
