r/fightclub

So I just saw fight club rereleased in theater and I noticed that Marla asks about Edward Norton’s chemical burn twice.

First time was when he “checked Marla for breast cancer” while walking into her apartment.

Second time was when they were arguing at the doorway to the basement when Tyler told Edward Norton what to say, “this conversation is over.”

He answered her the first time and she asks again as if she had never seen it nor heard him talk about it. I can’t find any reason why she would do this. Any thoughts?

Son wants to watch fight club he is 12 I saw it was R in Australia so sould I let him watch it or nah

So I got to see Fight Club again in theaters after 26 years. I was 21 when it came out years ago, and thought it was the greatest movie ever. I dragged my poor friends and family to see it at least 3 times in the theater. When it came out on VHS I rented it the day it was released. Certain VHS tapes like this one were too expensive to buy back then.

It’s weird seeing a movie you love so much in theaters again after so long. You can’t help but reflect on how much your life has changed in that time. I focused on different things now. Like how I was glad the narrator ended up with Marla at the end. Something I didn’t even pay attention to in ‘99.

The movie is still great and holds up very well. I have the steel-book preordered and am excited about that. I’m glad I got to see it again in theaters. Hopefully it’ll come around again in another few decades.

This post is me whining.

thE TWO THEATERS IN TOWN AREN’T SHOWING THE 4K REMASTER AND I AM CRYINGGGGG ;-; I’m thinking of E-mailing the smaller theater and asking if they would show it, since that seemed to work for Iron Lung and TADC finale, but both of those are brand new indie titles with MASSIVE outreach and a younger audience. I doubt theres hundreds upon hundreds of fans and parents of fans emailing the movies being like “Hey, show this 26~ year old cult classic.”

I could always just travel to the closest theater like an hour away, but if it got shown at the theaters by home (especially the smaller theater) I could probably ask for the poster when they’re done showing it. I’d have another fight club poster to put on my ceiling, plus that soap looks tasty asf. idk. Should I e-mail later today and ask? This movie means a lot to me and I’m very gay and autistic about it.
