It’s time to talk about Fight Club
This month marks 25 years since David Fincher’s influential film arrived in theaters, and to celebrate, the filmmaker is overseeing a new 4K Ultra HD remaster of the New Regency and 20th Century Fox film. Fincher is also planning a theatrical re-release early next year, though details — such as a date or the number of theaters — are being kept under wraps.
In addition, Fincher will release a 25th anniversary art book, including new interviews, rare behind-the-scenes material and unearthed visuals. The book arrives via Insight Editions and New Regency.
Count me in for the 4K and the book! Love this film!

It’s about time a new generation of teenage boys misinterpret Tyler Durden as a positive role model!

I don’t think he’s positive or negative. He’s a twisted product of a diseased society. What struck chords with a lot of men was the recognition of the disease. They felt a connection to Tyler. Not in his response to his life, but just to his life.
Millions of men live Tyler’s life and endure. Tyler is the one that cracked.
In a lot of ways it’s similar to Office Space, except that take a comedic instead of psychological look at the subject.

Positive or negative, he is definitely not a role model. Lots of young men interpreted it “correctly” but I saw a ton kids agreeing with all his actions and thinking he was the good guy when it was released
