    Welcome to the show I'm not allowed to talk about I'm your host Deffinition Durden and this video we're breaking down all the best easter eggs, hidden details and things you missed in Fight Club.
    Released in 1999 the anti-corporate, mind bending movie was massively ahead of it's time and though it's style, twist and ending have often been mimicked, they've never been duplicated.
    It's very fourth wall breaking and this even goes beyond the film itself as when you put in the blu ray it actually doesn't have a title hinting to one of the big rules in the movie.
    When you start it up you'll be taken what appears to be the menu screen for Drew Barrymore's Never Been Kissed.
    The first time I put the disc in I genuinely thought I'd been given the wrong film and it completely caught me off guard to the point I took out the DVD to make sure I'd put the right one in. Luckily I eventually realised what had happened and this idea of tearing down a commodity and commercial image of course ties into the message of the film itself.
    The film actually starts with a disclaimer that appears on screen for a split second. These are of course common on DVDs and Blu Rays and most of the time people don't bother to read them, however if you pause it and check out what it says you'll see that it's actually a message from Tyler telling you that just by reading this message you're wasting your life. He pretty much berates you for reading everything you're supposed to and doing everything everyone tells you to do which reminds me you should like comment and subscribe to this video.
    We go to the title sequence and can hear classic music which is then cut to play the heavy theme tune of the actual movie, this is showing us that the foundations of what we expect a film to be are gonna be pushed to the side for this more contemporary piece.
    Cut to the Narrator...who yeah...doesn't even have a real name, take that Protagonist who has a gun in his mouth.
    This is very much to give us the idea that he isn't really a person and that the persona he develops slowly starts to become the main one.
    The opening line of the film is the character saying 'people are always asking me if I know Tyler Durden.' This is a little meta joke about as we learn that the pair are indeed one in the same however this reveal is only brought about at the end of the movie.
    Before his appearance on the airplane Tyler actually appears on screen at several points for a split second. These are all blink and you'll miss it moments that work much in the same way that the character describes inserting hidden frames into films and slowly it sets up the notion that he is infecting the Narrators mind before he full materialises. For the clips on screen now we've slowed down the footage so that you can see every time he pops up but in the movie itself it's almost impossible to catch unless you're looking for it. Watching it in a cinema where you can't rewind stuff I can imagine that many people didn't even catch it.

    When the narrator is on the moving walkway before he gets on the plane Tyler is heading the other way. This might actually be the real person that the narrator bases his alter ego Tyler on. I think he subconsciously saw the man heading the other way and thought 'he looks cool, I wish I could be like him.' Then, low and behold, he gets on the plane and is sat next to him, the first time he imagines Tyler.

      Eh I'm not so sure. During that scene the narrator is looking the other direction away from Tyler Durden. So how could he have seen him and have based Tyler's appearance on him subconsciously if he never even saw that guy?
      Just my two cents.

    • @posthouseproductions8341
      @posthouseproductions8341 Před 2 lety +135

      I still think this is a hallucination and not a real person. If you watch the walkway scene carefully, Brad Pitt’s character appears out of nowhere behind Norton. He is not on the walkway to Norton’s right with the group of people going the other way, but suddenly appears as Norton passes by, as if out of nowhere. I think the blips we see are Tyler slowly working his way out, and this is the moment where he fully materializes as his second personality. It also times up with Norton’s VO: “if you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?”. This is the moment Tyler Durden is truly born.

      I agree with you that the scene when the narrator fights himself in his boss's office is hinting at Tyler being a product of his imagination, but not in the same way you do.
      Throughout the whole movie we're seeing what the narrator thinks is happening, not what is actually happening, for example the apartment explosion scene, where the narrator thinks the apartment blew up accidentally but in reality he did it himself, or the car scene, where he was the one at the wheel in reality. Now, in the scene with his boss we actually see what's happening for real, it being that the narrator is beating himselft up but is imagining it's his boss doing it to him, hinting that it was always him from the begining

    Here's a big one I'm pretty sure no one noticed. Bob was initially not fit for project mayhem as he was too soft and wanted to leave when criticised at the door of the narrator. Bob was basically let in out of pity but wasn't mentally up to the task. Bob was the only member of project mayhem to die in the movie. This suggests that his commitment to the cause of project mayhem was inauthentic and he should have never been there in the first place. He was simply trying to fit in.

    One remark I'd like to leave.
    After the car crash, the narrator does one thing he hasn't been able to do since Marla first showed up and ruined the groups for him, that is, fall asleep. Waking up, he even asks to himself if he was sleeping, as he can't believe he actually managed to rest for a night. Well, after that rest, Tyler seemingly disappears, tying back to the premisse that he was just a product of the narrator's insomnia allucinations.

    One of my favorite Easter Eggs that points to the fact that the narrator and Tyler are the same person: When Project Mayhem starts, and they're walking down the road hitting the cars with the baseball bats, the car alarms only go off after the narrator hits them with a bat, not when Tyler Durden hits them. On top of that, they skip one of the cars in the line because its a Toyota Corolla, a working man's car. They only swing on the nice luxury cars.

    The relationship and fight with Angle face has a lot of meaning and there is a nice Easter egg in there. Before the fight he has no voice, he does not speak. But after the fight he suddenly speaks a lot. So by becoming ‘ugly’ he gains his voice. Why does Jack beat Angle face so hard? He is described as ‘beautiful’ and the fight is about disfiguring that beauty. There is clearly a jealousy, of Tyler and Angle getting increasingly close. To me this jealousy stems from the fact that Angle face is the closest thing to a real Tyler, when Jack knows he cannot realise that it angers him.

    When Marla gets on the bus, as it's pulling away you can see everyone on the bus stand up and surround her, showing that everyone on the bus is part of project mayhen and tyler probably told them that the narrator would try and send her out of town. Also when the narrator is beating himself up in his bosses office he says it reminds him of his first fight with tyler, because their first fight was really just him beating himself up too. ALSO when Lou the guy who owns the bar and the basement starts talking to tyler, hes looking at the narrator until he walks up to tyler later on. This movie has so many layers, which is what makes it so good. I am jack's inflamed sense of rejection.

    Another thing is the scar you'll find on Tyler's cheek later in the movie. It's a reference to an injury the narrator sustained in the book. Also, when he completely annihilates angel face, while that did happen in the book, I think the extent they go to with it is also a reference to how the Narrator got Tyler beaten out of his head in the book.

      Interesting comment and replies... I must admit early on in the film I came to the conclusion that Marla wasn't real based on a scene where she walks into the middle of the road and talks to the narrator, without looking for traffic or fear of being hit. I cant even remember if any car horns sound at her. I thought if she's real, she wouldn't have risked crossing into the road like that. I dropped that theory as the movie went on but you've just made me think again 🤔

    The narrator repeats something Tyler said when they were talking about his dad. He talks about how his dad left him and went around to a bunch of cities and would make a family and leave the in 6years. Tyler makes the joke of, “the man was starting a franchise”. When the narrator goes to find Tyler and is going around to different cities, he realizes there are different fight clubs and makes the same joke. This also shows how he used Tyler as his intern father figure.

  • @johngleue
    @johngleue Před 3 lety +34

    I took Tyler's statement about the underwear ad as one of the many hypocritical statements/actions made by him throughout the film. He's mocking the 'perfect' body whilst being projected as having one himself by the narrator.
    So Even in his own fantasy the narrator is deeply confused and not totally willing to give up what's been engrained in his head for so long through advertisements and brainwashing through marketing tactics and then ends up stripping the individuality away from all his followers after appealing and manipulating them through their lack of purpose and their overall frustration with their lives.
    But yeah I watched the movie recently and couldn't stop thinking how the whole thing seemed like a battle between Marla and Tyler over control of the narrators brain. The yingyang table reminded me more of Tyler and Marla instead of the narrator and Tyler.
    I also don't know if Marla is supposed to be real in the movie or the result of a psychotic break just like Tyler. There's scenes that make it hard to buy this theory but there are a couple that help this theory make a lot of sense.
    Marla and Tyler's influence definitely seem to be at odds for the narrator's attention, though.

    When they first meet on the plane, Tyler is reading the emergency exit door procedure, talking about ‘the illusion of safety.’ He mentions ‘if you are unable to fulfil this task, please ask an attendant to switch seats’
    Tyler asks the narrator ‘Wanna switch seats?’
    And the narrator replies ‘No, I don’t think I’m the man for the job’ indicating that Tyler should be in the ‘drivers seat’ of his life and be in control. He IS the man for the job.

    I think Marla is also a split personality of the Narrator. She is there at the testicular cancer group, and no one bats an eye. She appears at the tower just as the Narrator shoots himself. Throughout the book there are hints about this. The Narrator never meets Marla and Tyler together, he just hears them. (okay, there is a scene where we catch a glimps of them together but the film changed bits and pieces of the story)

    An extra Easter egg for you all: the whole story should have been just a short story, based on chapter 3, criticizing the insurances methods about how and when to retire car models, as shown also in the film, then Palahniuk wrote the rest of the novel around it.
    Another one? The end you see in the movie is 10 pages short from the true end of the book, which is personally, a lot creepier.

I think thats why Tyler dies, now, that he has lost everything he ist free to do anything. He's a free man now and "The whole Fight Club and Project Mayhem thing" fullfilled it's purpose.

  • @tombstoneharrystudios584

    Fight Club remains one of my favourite films of all times…from the swirling cinematography, The Dust Brothers soundtrack, to its easily quotable dialogue
    But above all, it is a sharp satire of society…how this was missed by many, is a mystery to me!
    Tyler rallies against a society that tells us to look a certain way, consume a certain way & act a certain way to fit in
    All sold by impossibly perfect people selling simple solutions through punchy slogans and edgy imagery
    Tyler Durden offers a way back to what he imagines was the pinnacle of society, an almost spartan way of living where you face death and fear almost daily.
    Yet Tyler is himself male model handsome, with perfectly chiselled abs, with loud trendsetting outfits.
    He offers his followers easy solutions to their problems through catch slogans and ice-cream koans.
    He says that the way to be free of society’s conditioning is to think freely…yet he demands his followers dress the same, act the same, live under the same roof, follow his orders without question.
    Tyler is NOT, and will NEVER be, someone to idolise or imitate. His dream is unsustainable and idiotic.
    It’s little more than the simplistic plans of a small child, and his “No girls allowed” club, wanting to live in the woods with his friends, playing all day, and eating sweets, away from mummy and daddy, early bedtimes, the loathed baths, the dreaded & boring homework.
    Tyler and the Narrator are nothing more than a nihilistic Calvin & Hobbes!
    The author himself says that the idea of living a double life came from his own experiences- hiding his homosexuality from his family.
    Tyler is a parody of the impossible body standards the Gay Subculture in his life demanded, and he himself struggled with.
