Product Information

Projection Booth- Video options include principle photography, location scout, or a split screen of both. Audio options include location scout and principle photography. You can also view the storyboards for this scene. Visual Effect Stills- This shows a gallery of still photos from the visual effects team, mostly of the head used in the gun shot scene. There are also several on set photos, including some of the ice cave location.

While these features are numerous, none offer any new material for fans. The four feature-length commentaries, while interesting, are a tad redundant at times and are unlikely to be utilized by most viewers. The "Behind the Scenes" vignettes offer brief insights into the production and development of the film, but none delve into any topic with any significant detail. Instead, the short videos piece together brief production footage with final cut footage and very little narrative. The deleted and alternate scenes come accompanied by menu summaries that identify the differences between the selected scenes and the final cut – a small but well-appreciated effort. The PSAs, which feature Tyler Durden and The Narrator, are amusing, but account for only a few minutes of supplemental viewing. Ed Norton's no name character is living a banal, materialistic yuppie life. He has no friends, no gal, and his possessions define him. Low and behold, he can't sleep. I have watched other David Fischer's movies "seven", "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", which Brad Pitt appears, and these movies was also great. The movies made me a big fan of him, but after watching this movie, I was so impressed and got more into his performance. I have ever watched so many movies in my life, and I can say it without doubt, Fight Club is one the best movie I have ever watched. The actors in this movie look unique and very cool. That makes this movie attractive. expresses variations of the credo that "it's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do Here you'll find high definition, self-playing galleries of visual effects stills, photos of the Paper

Brain Ride Map- This section has a wealth of drawings concerning this sequence, so you see how the early sketches and descriptions compare to the finished product. Text descriptions are also included, so you’ll know every inch of the brain ride before it’s all said and done. Standing amongst those giants, 'Fight Club' still towers as a singular experience, one that seems to almost burst with the limitless possibilities of turn-of-the-century filmmaking. Think about all those computer-assisted camera moves that zoomed through buildings and brains. We see those every week on the various 'CSI' series, but at the time nobody had done that before (or even thought to do that before). In fact, virtually every stylistic element of 'Fight Club,' from its opening title sequence to its casual mixture of violence and nihilism to its gotcha(!) twist ending have been aped, parodied, or shamelessly ripped off in the decade since its release.

Now, if we believe our heros version of events, he has gone quite mad, but on another level his madness is genius. We all have this internal process. He just externalized it, and probably came closer to getting free form his chains then most of us will. Where does personal liberation end and anarchy begin? Good question, and isn't it the fear of stepping over the line that stop most of us from finding out. Which is scarrier--staying how we are or wading into the forbidden zone? I don't know. This raises one of several major points in the film. Our hero did not feel he could make such big changes on his own, and sets up an alter-ego, which is really his ideal self--all the things he aspires to be and can't. This sounds insane, but to a degree, we all have a fantasy about doing what we want when we want, saying what crosses our mind, and being free from the demons-material, social, and psycological- that stop us from being ourselves. Usually, we see our ideal selves as another person, devorced from us. A beautifully aesthetically stunning crafted movie, fluid as our thouth processes are. From the start it displays a voyage through the brain's fear center. As a fable that it is, the use of special effects and creative, aggressive, edgy cinematography suspends your disbelief into a journey in a very human experience, a tale about our war. As Tyler Durden says when he puts the finger on our greed/consumerism epidemic, "our war is a spiritual war". Interwoven masterfully are the elements of a man's struggle with this disease and fighting our war. It never stops being an action film. Disingenuous – Despite other critics' claims that Fight Club condemns what it shows, thus forcing one to ponder why nihilism is embraced and propagandized by well-educated individuals, the film actually resonates better as a promo ad, not as a condemnation. Unsurprisingly, nowadays Fight Club is remembered for its aggressive imagery, not because of its supposedly subtle critique on violence. This area is filled with artwork from the production of the film. Below the content is broken down by divisions.

Customer reviews

The rant that Tyler delivers to the fight club, encapsulates some of the concerns the movie wants to bring the audience to brood upon. It is one of the few congruent lines thrown in your lap to understand the movie and the issues brought to light. Issues related to living lives without meaning, in mechanic jobs we hate, to buy stuff conditioned by the media to, but that we really don't truly need. We've become consumer droids. Space monkeys conditioned to press buttons towards oblivion. The media offers its carrot: fame, fortune, and every Ego-booster conceivable. And if the entanglement is rooted on the ego logic, ego perception and egotistic behavior it only messes up the problem further. All reinforces the need to gain awareness of the influence of the ego.

manufacturer. His life is defined by his Ikea-furnished lifestyle solutions, by his khakis, his dinner This section contains well designed biographies for eighteen members of the cast and crew, including the writers, producers, and musical talent. This is how talent files should be done, and I hope other releases mirror this type of extensive cast and crew information in the future. From the two leads to the costume designer, all the bases are covered in this section. Costumes and Make Up- This shows various sketches dealing with what the title implies, as well as some cool before and after fights drawings of some characters. Even sketches of gun shot wounds and the chemical burn are shown here, awesome!This area contains seven deleted sequences, with description as to why the scenes were removed. Each of the deleted scenes also includes the original, for comparison’s sake. These scenes include an encounter with Chloe after a support group meeting, an alternate take of the fight with Angel Face, a voice over difference during the board meeting, deleted bookends to the fight with the boss, an alternate take on Tyler’s good-bye, an alternate take on the Fight Club paper found in the copier, and of course, the infamous “I want to have you abortion” line. spookiness and big beats sound a bit dated now, but the music is still bold and effective. I really Airport- This offers the chance to view the location scout for this scene, as well as the principle photography involved. A split screen option is also available. The audio for both is also available, and you switch between the two audio and video as you like. Storyboards are also included for this sequence. Critics and viewers who think this is about getting your macho up miss the point. So do those who think this is a "violent" film. Fight Club is really about personal liberation, and genius that osolates into insanity.
