[Film] Calvin sorry but...


Calvin, I gonna have a biting tongue at a film, "fight club" which is your the best. As u know, I had seen it twice, first time on theater 6 years ago, and next time with u recently. I found a lot of good sources from this film at second time. I feel thx to u. But I hardly understand why this film have got so many praises from their supporing group. I will reveal it now.

Firstly, I will state Roger Ebert's saying,


"Fight club" Durden represents hidden aspects of the male psyche is a question the movie uses as a loophole--but is not able to escape through, because "Fight Club" is not about its ending but about its action. Of course, "Fight Club" itself does not advocate Durden's philosophy. It is a warning against it, I guess; one critic I like says it makes "a telling point about the bestial nature of man and what can happen when the numbing effects of day-to-day drudgery cause people to go a little crazy."

Although I don't 100 % agree with his saying, my main point is conneted with his point. Why they follow Tyler Durden? They are all minority outsiders. Someones are fat, jobless, a good for nothing. They are going to get a save from Tyler and idolize Tyler.They become excited at his speech, act, even fighting. But they need to be criticize.

Do they try to become a man like Tyler? Tyler can't change them, only take out people's aggresiveness instinct, even use it for his purpose.Quite villian. Their hero Tyler which they wanna be like? or follow? The masses in fightclub just follow him and get a "settlement" from him.Just settelment. Here is exmaple, barry bones, great baseball player, had grew with his godfather Willy Mayse. A talented baseball Aability ran in the blood of the family. After a hard traning and a willing, he is eventually passing over Willy's record. Here difference between hero and idol become clear.

What's the meaning of idol. They can't change them selves, can't reach to tylor in Tylor's circle. Because they are not changed, just found their instinct.
Why do audiences feel pleasure from them? They are more settling. Dazzling camera work and sounds, images are going fast to "reinforce" their explosion.Finally, Norton returns to his ego because fight club not going to correct way. But only him. The others are already crazy about their themselves.

At the ending, norton found his real identity, even masses still think he is Tylor. Here David fincher cut ending up dimly.It's very irresposible. The director had shown very clear depictions of violence and identical changes. Then when norton returns to reality.Just end up dimly...? Audiences are already dazzled and there are no self-reflection there (ending).
If fincher take second series of fight club? can the director talk about remained people in fightclub? They are useless. Just existed fora propaganda tylorism. If you want to get a settlement like a members, keep following Tylor, or not.. be superior him.

Fincher should have to examine about member left at the end, or not he had to keep praising fight club. He avoided both side. It's the why this film is a crap.Don't say about fight club in thems of philosophy any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
