I never thought about the way you put it. About how the movie actually winks at itself and all... now the gears are grinding lol.

Yes, I love how the Haiku can be taken as a joke and serious at the same time... just so many meanings and themes in this movie. I'm glad I got to watch it. I'll be searching for the book.

Geez, you've gotten me now to start actually reading again. I haven't read in a while.

The book will be a relatively easy read, since you're familiar with the material, and since Palahniuk has a really nice writing style. He writes like he's talking to you, he repeats "choruses." Some say it's a beginners writing style but what the ****, it's entertaining.

I love how bored he is when he writes the Haiku. I can't think of many other comments to make, so I'm hoping someone else watches the movie and throws out an opinion so the three of us can discuss it. I might have to watch the movie again soon.

i watched fight club twice the past two days after not seeing it for..hell, years probably. i remember liking the movie before but whether it was my immaturity at the time or just lack of intellect to understand the real concept behind it, i didn't get half as much from it as i did re-watching it.

genius.

the haiku, the "near-life" experiences, project mayhem...genius. part of me wishes i was Tyler Durden



the soap, selling snobby rich bitches their own fat back to them? GENIUS!

What have you taken from it as, I guess, a general theme?
