FIGHT CLUB (1999) TWIN BROTHERS FIRST TIME WATCHING MOVIE REACTION! 

People need to learn how to look at the bright side, at least she got some good sex tho.

but he still put in the effort after he realized

A molar wouldn’t deflect a .22, let alone a .45. It would just destroy the molar and keep going. It seemed to me to be a metaphorical killing. The gunshot didn’t need to hit anything vital because in Norton’s mind, it kills Tyler, which is all that matters.

Nah, Norton thought he was going to kill himself, so he would’ve imagined Tyler dying as well. I’m pretty sure some people that try to commit suicide by gun in the mouth survive in the same way that Norton does

@@Kilborns I disagree, there’s no signs that he wanted to end his life there, just that he wanted Tyler gone. It could have gone wrong and he ends up killing himself, but I believe he intentionally angled the handgun to come out the side of his face to metaphorically kill Durden. Remember that he starts with the gun under his chin. If he really wanted to kill himself, he would have pulled the trigger then, as it’s an almost guaranteed death with how the handgun was positioned. He then drops it down, says “My eyes are open” and points the handgun in his mouth, angled outwards. To me, that says he was only trying to “trick” Durden into thinking he killed himself. It sounds weird, I know, but that’s what I’ve come away with from that scene after seeing the movie more times than I can count.

@@Kilborns Yup, putting the barrel in your mouth is probably the worst way to shoot yourself in the head. I head of a guy who tried to shoot himself with a shotgun, but because the angle was off he blew off the front of his face and lived. Horrible shit. The lesson here being, don't shoot yourself idiot.

Even a small caliber like .22LR would shatter the molar. The brain trauma from shooting himself killed Tyler. Just like when Tyler vanished after the car crash.

It was the first time I ever saw it as a kid. My dad showed it to me. Good memory and one of the greatest movies ever made!

Edward Norton is responsible for it with this and that lawyer movie.

Why is that fun?

@@linoarquiza5433 a "fun" fact usually means interesting or surprising fact

@@revafarleyleebiit Sarcasm is lost on you, isn't it?

@@linoarquiza5433 i don't understand?

@@revafarleyleebiit It's okay. Don't worry about it.

When I saw this movie in the theater, I got something else blown.

If they figure it out during the movie someone spoiled it for them even if they don't know it

Two of my favorites

Give them a break, they're Canadian.

@@StarkRG They're also young. Meatloaf hasn't been super famous in decades

@@r.thomas9648 They not that young... Meatloaf is a staple of American music. And Jared Leto is pretty contemporary

I’m the same age and I enjoy Meat he was a staple of my childhood between Rocky Horror Picture Show and his music I absolutely knew who he was at the first watch. Jared Leto I had absolutely no clue who he was until a year ago.

She's amazing in every movie.

Makes me think of that quote from Brain Dead when the priest is fighting the zombie, "I kick ass for the Lord!". I can't help it lol

@@amandacogger3075 I haven't thought about that movie in many years. Thanks for that. Now I'm going to have to find it to watch again. Lol

@@donaldseale2700 🤣 it's a great film. The lawnmower scene had me in fits when I first saw it and the baby zombie in the park

They are starting fights with strangers so the conceptualize how much society has people programmed not to make waves. Or to borrow a term from the 60s...so that they grok it.

Then later on the priest is a member of fight club (he’s the guy who hugs the other guy after a fight and yells “yeah”)

I never picked up on this! I saw this in the theater and loved it instantly. Must’ve watched it over a hundred times since then but never thought to link the two. Nice!

Ah! I didn’t think of that! No wonder tyler disappeared!

Good little twist

Hard Co-Sign!

Great film

One of the best law thrillers of all time

@@lanagievski1540 Devil's Advocate too

It’s not just them that flashes up. Check some towards the end. The narrator told you what was coming

if you watch the movie in "24p" (as in the same framerate as in the cinema), which some bluerays and dvds support, it is definitely less noticable

Bro aren’t the flashes just the image of a p*nis? Especially at the ending scene

@@cerenordas3312 some of them are, yes

@@cerenordas3312 Some of the flashes are Tyler Durden. About a year ago there was a famous director and Tom Cruise that didn't like their movies streaming for this very reason. They said that without the correct settings, TVs don't show the movie the way it was meant to be seen. I think the director was James Cameron. I could be wrong about the two people.

Speak for yourself man... plenty of people READ THE FUCKING BOOK.

@@km666 I suspect more people watched the movie than read the book.

@@pduidesign You're probably right but maybe you shouldn't be telling people that no one caught the flashes. You literally capitalized the word everyone when you said the twist surprised everyone. So again, speak for yourself and read more books.

I think the first one is true, in life we all have a different view of happiness and finding it helps make living easier. Though the second one I don't agree with, we can't compare pain because if we keep belittling our pain as not a big deal we will never get over it; all pain is different like happiness. We have to find our solution that helps us move on, comparing never helps.

@@OctoKrool did you check the ⚠️ Warning message Tyler left? If not here it's.. *⚠️Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don't you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned.⚠️* If you ever get the special edition DVD, or BluRey it will come up right before the DVD menu starts.

@@OctoKrool okay the reason Edward Norton is going to all of those different meetings is because it's helping him sleep 😴💤 and it was working well, until Marla Singer popin

@@OctoKrool okay those flashes of Tyler Durdin is his Subconscious coming into reality sort of.... If you notice each time you see Tyler flash on screen you see more and more of him...

@@OctoKrool "did you know that in a long enough timeline the survival rate of everyone drops to 0%"

I hate to break it to you but I worked in an office in the late 80s, so ten years before this movie came out, and we had digital backups of all our data. Believe me, all the companies in those buildings were fine.

@@dianem8544 Maybe they kept the servers in the buildings. Project Mayhem did span all over America, so they probably got every building.

@@dianem8544 i think the point is that there were no what we call today "cloud backups".... a lot of data was still stored locally

Yes, the data was on physical drives but part of the protocol for backing up was that those drives were taken offsite every night. They weren't servers like we think of them, it was just the disc part and they were portable. They even had their own carrier bags. The head of IT took them home every night.

@The Hollow Called White Haha!

Tyler makes some solid points, but overall far to extreme with them where it just comes off as insane

I always found it funny that the viewers of this movie who are on Tyler’s side even after watching the movie, they got manipulated just as hard as everyone else in the film.

@@OctoKrool Yeah. It’s really a narrative on the darker side of capitalism, consumerism, debt and the rat race. It’s a pretty harsh criticism about it, actually. Which is why it’s so funny to see people completely miss the point of the movie and Tyler and idolize him thinking he’s so cool. Sure, he’s cool, for a sociopathic Terrorist.

@@clonexx Oh I agree with the critique of consumerism and capitalism, but he frames the causes all wrong and toxically. I mean, conservative-leaning dickwads got "snowflake" as an insult from Tyler in this movie. What's funny to me is these kinds of fans see the twist as like "any meek Ed Norton type can become an Alpha Tyler with the right mindset" when what it's REALLY saying is "behind every macho-postering Tyler Durden is an insecure messed-up Ed Norton type"

@@HobGungan and you are also wrong. Because both sides are right. Any meek mild mannered person can rise up and every "alpha" has a mild mannered person inside that can come out when they are broken. The message of this movie is the extremes of both sides are bad. Just like life and creativity exists in the balance between order and chaos. Society is at its greatest when it exists between the extremes

And his Netflix series 'Headhunters' was awesome. I particularly love 'The Game' a lot and would love for the fellas to check it out.

All VERY solid movies! Love Zodiac

@@manuelper Let me just correct you there, "Mindhunter" not "Headhunters".😂👌 But yes, it was a great show sadly it got cancelled, we will most likely never see Season 3 of this show, But you never know, miracles do happen.

@@nox5870 oh damn, how could I get that wrong? Tx for the correction.

@The Hollow Called White I was literally listening to that song Sunday. he "directed" Alien 3 as well. long story of studio intrference

Your all wrong

What’s your top five?

ANARCHY!!

@@randywhite3947 in no particular order...Godfather 2, lawerence of Arabia, one flew over the cockoos nest, fight club, first ghostbusters(don't judge lol).

The rule that you can't talk about without breaking it.

I don’t know why any of them cared… the characters are NUTS lol. I don’t think most people believed the actors or studio loooved abortions and inappropriate matters.

Dude, X Files is one of my all-time favorite shows; I haven't seen the latest seasons but I watched the original ones and I fell in love!

Yup. I didn't sleep for 3-4 days several times when my insomnia was really bad. Everything felt disconnected. I had no idea if I was awake or dreaming. Sometimes when I would try to sleep, I would wake up, and then wake up again from that. It's a terrible feeling. Like nothing is real.

Sounds exactly like my experiences

Our favorite manga for years now :)

I think they were referring to Ed Norton’s role as Bruce Banner/The Hulk in the MCU (and how he was replaced by Mark Ruffalo after a single movie)

Ed Norton, Robin Williams in Death to Smoochy!

That. Is. Hilarious! 😂😂😂Sounds like so much fun too!

@@Ivy94F now they're learning drinking games from their college aged grandkids. Ever lost beer pong to a blind 86 year old? I have!

I just haven't seen many of his movies; probably was worded wrong. I know he's dong a lot of good stuff, I just haven't seen them yet :)

Primal Fear!

@@OctoKrool Primal Fear is brilliant! Worth a vote!

The people vs Larry Flynt

I'm kind of a rebel :)

Primal Fear is on our list, but I have seen Sweeney Todd and loved that movie; still totally crushed by the loss of Alan Rickman

@@OctoKrool I never realized he could sing that well. If for nothing else to hear Johnny Depp and Alan sing together was amazing to see and out of all the productions Ive seen he was one of the few that could humanize such a...grotesque character as Turpin. Be ready for a power house with Primal Fear.

ohh and i found this. You might want to take a moment. shows all times when Tyler showed up :D ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a7N5qnqPKoM.html

You could also say the same about this movie and The Matrix but in a much broader sense: they share the general themes of waking up from your normal everyday existence + questioning the established reality and ways of thinking that the system has programmed you to passively accept. And of course they're both quite the mindf*ck the first time that you watch them!

@@HunterHarris I agree. The monotony of corporate office life prompts a philosophical search.

@@aj897 'Zeitgeist', go google that word. Also, what makes you think I was just talking about the US?

@@sntxrrr what does the Cold War ending 10 years before this movie, Apartheid ending in a different country, raves, or the internet have to do with “the mood” of the 1990’s in the US and how does it relate to this movie and why does it seem like you copy pasted from a blurb review in an attempt to appear smart?

@@chrissmith6097 I can't help you with the last part but in general I would say the 90's were a time of optimism when most of the big world problems seemed to have disappeared. The internet was talked about in terms of 'the global village', open communication with everyone would make us all cozy neighbors. For a while there weren't nation-wide firewalls or mass monitoring. We avoided WWIII so society could sigh from relief and relax. If you don't have to spend that much on defense you can spend more on social welfare or infrastructure and in several western countries more social oriented governments were elected and re-elected. When there are no perceived external threats it is easier to take care of yourself or to turn inwards, party, buy that new Windows 95 computer and foster that Ikea nesting instinct. The main character fully commits to that and expects everything to be fine. But that optimism doesn't work for him because his is unaware of or ignores his actual problems which allow them to manifest as Tyler Durden. But if he was brainwashed by that optimism, Tyler Durden brainwashes too with cheap rhetoric and 'joke' terrorism, which is still terrorism. Thinking everything will be fine and can just be easily fixed can be dangerous and only by recognizing that can he start to move on. You can explain the story differently, there are definitely several layers to it and that makes it such a good movie. I've seen the movie explained in terms of toxic masculinity and that seems to work pretty well too but to me that is a bit too fashionable and ignores the historical context too much. I think my blurb is part of why this movie resonated so much with the people that liked it at the time.

same here, this and taxi driver. unfortunately i get bored of fight club and think of it less every time i rewatch it but taxi driver i still enjoy every time i come back to it.

@@killar1one I also love Taxi Driver. It's my second favorite movie of all time

@@JimmyStone54321 without fight club i’d have never watched taxi driver, without taxi driver i’d have never got into scorsese, without scorsese id have never got into kubrick, Sidney lumet, paul thomas anderson etc

100%!!!!

It's by far our favorite Manga, we've been reading it since highschool and it blows my mind it's still ongoing today lol. I always make sure to disclaim that at least one of us have, we will never do a movie where we both have; do our best to keep things genuine. Also, thank you! :)

We're watching you 👀

Holy shit, I knew he looked so familiar but I could not figure it out; I totally see it now!

🤫ahhh good man 😉

More relevant today than ever...And consider the book was written in like 1994

Edward Norton did say in the commentary that this movie shows what happens when frat boys read too much Nietzsche.

lol "The anti capitalist gang bang message" i think u missed the message

@@ne_podarok “you missed the message, I won’t explain my take or why you got it wrong I just wanted to say you’re wrong and feel a bit clever.” That’s you;)😘
