haha to the guy standing at the door it must be confusing af...he's like: Is this one guy playing good cop bad cop all by himself, wtf? It's probably even more confusing to Bob...
Kudos to the first guy who had no precedent to follow. Just raw confidence and determination till they let him in. It's fitting Tyler calls him a space monkey because he was the first recruit in the house and therefore the true 2nd man joining the revolution.
@@chriswyatt9869 I didn't finish the book...had I read it before seeing the movie I probably would have been totally into it but it was just a bit too disturbing for me...I was impressed how closely it followed the book, though...Marla was far more sado masochistic in the book, for sure.
chromium jesta you had to reply to him twice? Damn, he must have really struck a painful nerve😂. Which most likely means he struck truth gold when he triggered you.
@@MrLTiger props from the set have a paycheck thats billed to the narrator and the name printed is ‘jack moore’ plus even edward norton refers to his character as jack rather than the narrator so he is basically… jack
i just noticed.. bob wasn't supposed to be in project mayhem, he failed the test but the narrator cheats and gives him advice, he is later killed likely because he wasn't fully prepared or ready.
Divine Potato Or Light Enough On His Feet to Outrun The Cops. He’s running flat out (or trying to), only every 3 yards, gets one of those humongous great hairy bitch-tits smacking him in the face, hard enough to give the poor guy a concussion. Bob’s okay though, he appears in the sequel. As a Zombie/Golem to defend the Space Monkeys and their place. And unload heavy cargo crates, if necessary...
yeah from bobs point of view his personal friend tells him to leave and than immediately tells him to stay and wait. Bob had one of the most unique relationships with Tyler
Yeah, but we're talking about the movie here (and the game based on THIS movie), not the book it's based on and not some fanfic comic no one's ever heard of. Maybe they changed later, but by the time of this movie, the name was obviously Jack, just like Tyler's still frames at the beginning, they were there, but not so we could see until we were looking for them, the name is the same thing, just a subtle implication.
Yeah, and George Lucas wrote the first six episodes of Star Wars, and the first half are complete garbage, just sayin', just because a writer hits a home run once, that don't mean they can't fuck things up later on by changing stuff, anyway, to each their own.
lol spoilers much, next you will be telling us the sixth sense also hits differently when we know he was dead all along or caillou with cancer and the series was just his death bed nightmare of life-long mediocrity.
I think, he was trying to see what happens when his waiting ends by looking at Tyler and first applicant. That look was a look of curiosty more than a look of horror or surprise.
I always found it ironic that one of messages of the film is non-conformity and not following the rules and yet Project Mayhem members are required to dress the same and follow their own rules
That's the whole point of the film. The 'big society and system' they are trying to destroy cannot really be destroyed without absolute chaos. These men have been a part of the 'society' their entire lives and they literally do not know how to live without it. Therefore they hold Tyler up to as some perfect Messiah figure. They are either too afraid to take responsibility or they don't know how without some leader showing them the way.
drakieon exactly!! I see so many people who discredit the movie and the book because the members of project mayhem model what they’re rebelling against or that teenagers who first see the movie act like jackasses in real life. Or how he doesn’t like men in underwear ads and feels sorry for men who think that’s how they should look when in the movie his embodiment of what he thinks is masculine is played by fucking Brad Pitt! All those thing make the movie such great social and psychological commentary on multiple levels.
Robert De Niro wasn’t nominated for The King of Comedy, Brad Pitt wasn’t nominated for Fight Club, and Jake Gyllenhaal wasn’t nominated for Nightcrawler. The Academy really sucks
Not really a plot twist of its obvious . more like logic to any structure of work you can't be a labor and be fat as shit you can't be a true comedian without your own material . requirements for every position in any setting .
Not really a plot twist. That's literally the probable cause for an event in the movie, it's not a sudden change in narrative or perception of character. Thats just explaining what happened.
I just realized that Bob is the only one who didn't pass the test on his own since he was ready to quit and the narrator brought him back, and then later on he was the only member of project mayhem to die.
0:26 Webster from Band of Brothers. Shame that actor didn't really have much of a career after this (although he almost got the part of Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins.)
But you can't hold shit or piss for three days straight without some serious body damage. So at the least, they all pissed and shit themselves by day two or three.
@@We_Are_Borg_478 shlt you can... but also no one can stay 3 days standing still without sleep or move definitely. they would pass out. the water thing i did 2 day and a half and i felt really bad..i think you can survive longer than 3 days but no way they would stay 3 days. test should have been a day or two to be realistic
That answer is just a basic guideline. The true amount of time you can survive with/without the essentials of life is variable depending on person and circumstance. It can be more or less than the 333 rule
@@We_Are_Borg_478 Each person is different if you’re a big fat cunt you can survive more than three weeks without food. If you’re a trained diver you can hold your breathe for more than three minutes. It’s not a rule just the average.
I was looking at the monkey they sent into space off a random short. Was intrigued so I looked up “space monkey” to see more and this clip popped up. Love fight club.
bob mustve been so confused being told to get the fuck out and then 2 seconds later getting the low down on how it works. Especially since its the same person doing both.
Just to let you know that the narrator is the same as Tyler, so the narrator basically told Bob to get of his porch then get Bob back and tell what is really going on,
