I just watched fight club again with my girlfriend because she said she's never seen it and I was shocked.
I thought it was unrealistically endorsing a lot of bad habits.
Every single scene seems to have brad pitt lighting a cig up and looking really really cool. Casual stealing of property, blackmail. I can only remember two instances where any of the constant bare knuckle fighting with less rules than the UFC has any real effect on anyone. At the end of the film Ed norton still looked ok.
There's a few facts that the film states that I don't know if they're true or not. One about oxygen on aeroplanes, others about the manufacture of dynamite and soap.
Other than that I do like the film, I think it might have been better without brad pitt and with someone more rugged looking. It's funny when they're on a bus and Brad Pitt's character (tyler durdon) is making fun of an advert which has a guy with 6 pack abs.
brad pitts image is of a stereotypical good looking guy with abs yet the film is making fun of stereotypical good looking men with abs and saying they arent real men.
But then that character is just a figment of Ed nortons imagination I suppose, I still don't understand that specific scene in the film.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
