"The holy grail, of something white."
I love Patrice.
Legend
A real comedy Jesus
As Ant would say, “ holy shit.”
There’s more wisdom on racial relations in 3 minutes of Patrice than the entire “white fragilit and “how to be anti racist.”
Wow! I just received an email notification from a CZcams account I had forgotten about: brad brad. That’s strange. Must have created and forgot about it several years ago.
" I sat back with my arms folded and thought, This movie did nothing for me. But I think Ive run into the Holy Grail of Something White" 🤣🤣
So no one's gonna talk about the fact that this video clip was uploaded by the author of the book Fight Club ? Also, it shows even he knew what a genius Patrice o'neal.
@Doomer The neet gloomer and who do you think capitalism is the most unfair to? Definitely not the wights
@Doomer The neet gloomer lol marxists
AMEN!!!
Wow, I just noticed! Thanks

The best part about this is that his interpretation of the movie was 100% correct, and exactly what Chuck Palahniuk intended.
It's even better that he was the one that posted this video.
I dont think so. People forget that Tyler Durden was the villain. He was Jim Jones, a cult leader that used people to his own ends. The narrator was only free when Tyler died. Tyler and the Ikea catalog were one and the same. He represented a false ideal in the same way.
Everybody who is not white understands the story and interprets it correctly.
@@ginshuhime stop being racist, weeb
@@finnfinity9711 oh man! You're so funny!
Just like his rant about Radio Head's "Creep"
Harold OfTheRocks you’re a pussy.
Ok Simp
Yep. That is a killer bit.
Fight Club? Oh I think you meant ‘Punch Basement.’
It was a double feature on the SciFi channel together with Simian Wars.
Who're you quoting its hilarius "punch basement" 🤣😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant
Was gonna suggest 'Altercation Cellar', but that's even better. 😅
"The Scarface for white people." - Patrice O'neal (RIP)
of
it's funny cuz Scarface isnt even Black in any way
@@kungfufemafam9216 also isn't white it's Hispanic
@Thelondonbadger Yeah But most people in US separate Hispanic from white and black.
@Thelondonbadger Can't disagree with ya tbh lol
"It's a lame guy hero movie." Damn, that is the most concise and accurate description of Fight Club ever.
It’s far more clever than most traditional hero movies. But people would rather see “The equaliser”
No, no it's not, it's the description of someone who totally missed the main characters reason for creating a split personality.
And you believed him because he said it in a confident tone . . . Wah wah Wahhh
@catdog __ The who isn't as important as the why, Patrice missed the why.
Also, I'm underwhelmed with all "celebrities" so I don't care if Elvis's Ghost uploaded it.
@catdog __ Ah ! Sorry Man, I'm used to people being plonkers online so I misinterpreted what you said. But yeah, I never noticed that before.
What does this even mean? And what kind of movie is black panther?
Punch Basement
Thank you! That made me laugh so hard. Dinosaur Forrest.
Hermunkle best comment ever posted on youtube
Yes
He's so honest it's almost
psychic ability
Yo thats a crazy fire assessment
was hoping patrice would say "white club" lol
I don't think there are any black people in it?
+LegendarySpartan117 You like eyedea? hmm
probably
lol just looked at your profile sorry for asking lol
what a friggen good one
Lmfao this is exactly how I felt when I watched “Get Out”
Woah.
Wow, that's right.
Patrice talking about anything is more entertaining than 99% of entertaining things.
His mind is gold for comedy
patrice has this natural intelligence that surpasses most men
Social intelligence
bruh stop
"A" natural intelligence. For it to be "this" natural intelligence, you would have to demonstrate some form of natural intelligence.
Also, he's dead now, so he "had" it but he and his love of refined sugars took it with him.
RIP Patrice. If only you understood calorie requirements the way you understood puss.
@@michaelhall5429 he did. He was just addicted, which he admitted to numerous times
@@michaelhall5429 Patrice admitted to being self-destructive and almost suicidal with his eating habits. The last year of his O&A appearances, though, he starts talking about weird physical issues he was having. He started to really lose weight and eat healthy after those scares, but it was too late.
It's haunting to realize that, during his last month on Earth, he lost the ability to communicate, briefly talking with his eyelid before being unable to communicate at all. Such a huge presence and personality just locked in his body.
We will be studying the philosophy of Patrice O'Neal for years to come... The brutalism of his analysis on men, women, relationships, race and free speech are quietly profound... What's most admirable is his fearlessness, or rather principled approach to life despite lost friendships, lost profits and lost prestige.... Incredible 🙏
Lost prestige? Not quite. He never had the Chappelle level of fame but he was already a legend!
Even after listening to so many clips I stumble across this little gem and it's like getting hit with a bucket of ice water. Patrice's insight is biblical.
Another brilliant and flawless observation from the great Patrice Oneal
"Its the Scarface of white people" lol... love the movie, Patrice is a hilarious!
So Scarface is the Fight Club of Hispanics?
Scarface is the drug dealer version
The original Scarface was about Italians, so yeah. Not white people.
@@johnestupido1418 Italians aren't white? What are they? Ignoring their tans I mean.
@@tentaklaus9382 Italians were not considered white until around the 1940's 1950's Do a little research yourself.
"You're not your fucking khakis."
I took that shit to heart.
"The burden of dishonesty" bit was Genius
I loved Fight Club. One of the finest movie adaptations of a book you'll ever see.
But I never ever viewed it as an "Oh my God! I have to change my life!" movie.
I was lucky and had my mid-life crisis when I was in my early 20s. I already knew that not everyone was going to grow up to be rich and successful.
I was already totally at peace with the fact that I was nobody special.
You’re special. You’re just not going to be a movie star.
@@praetentious2925 Thanks!
@@riffgroove “you’re so f’ing special….but I’m a creeeeee-“
@@praetentious2925 good one! (thumbs up)
@@praetentious2925 you reminded me of that demotivational poster “Individuality - because you’re special… just like everybody else.” ❄️
SyFy Movie Title for "Fight Club" would be "Punch Basement."
"The Scarface of white people." LMAO!
That "holy grail of something white" was such a great observation.
Patrice was such a great comedian that he could make you laugh even when you disagreed with him. Guy was hilarious
Fight club on Sci if would be “Secret Beating”
I really wish Patrice was alive and had a podcast
I wish bob marley was still alive and making music
Groundbreaking people like O'Neal sadly don't last much on this Earth!
" I didn't supposts to see"
lol
when I sawr it
I didnt catch that the first time jajaja
Felt exactly the same watching Get Out. It was like high school when they made us watch Amistad all over again.
kyle krieg WTF
Patrice O'neal: stating exactly what the movie and book were about
Everyone in comments section: acting like its some new interpretation and Patrice is a prophet.
Yeah lol
😂
Actually, it IS a great film. Patrice says it himself in this video. Even though it didn't appeal to him, he says that he could feel it's importance in reflecting the inner struggle of the average white guy. That in itself is evidence of brilliance. It just means it may not be universally appealing, but what is? Scarface is a masterpiece too. Films are meant to reflect something within ourselves on a deeper level.
Stop. Go listen to Neil Young. And drive into the bay.
@@DynamicThreads I just watched that vid before this one🤣🤣🤣
First 10-15 minutes were ok then it got super cheesy
I've heard Patrice talk about a lot of movies on O & A. He knows storytelling
As a white guy: The movie finally makes sence to me
*sense
God dammit Patrice was a genius....I fucking knew as soon as this started he was going to make a white joke...I think for ppl who know comedy he will be remembered as the greatest of all time.
It's really tragic that he didn't get to do his show on comedy central. It was his "guide to understanding white people"
"Battle Basement" coming up next on SyFy!
Fight Club is my all time favorite movie, and I'm African.
I love fight club but goddamn Patrice 100% nailed it
As a Puerto Rican from The Bronx, I sadly look back and remember FIGHT CLUB as the movie Middle Eastern men thought was about them. I dare the rabbit hole commenters to tell me the office building end scene didn't predict 9/11....
It definitely was predictive programming especially the time it came out.
I brought this bit up in class today and only one dude knew who Patrice is... was... wish you were still here with us...
"It did nothing for me, but I got the feeling I stumbled on the Holy Grail for white people"
LOL Patrice rules
The “Don’t fuck with us” scene makes me bust out laughing every time. Hearing interviews with Chuck made me realize it was supposed to be hilariously edgy
I know this was suppose to be fight club, but "dinosaur forest" had me rolling 😆
His thoughts about the movie were spot on. Its always nice to hear when someone else gets the point/message of a movie.
It's one of my favorite movies of all time but i agree with Patrice completely.
Even before i played this,, i knew Big Guy is gonna enlighten us with something completely out of the box and unique.
Oh Patrice, i can never stop loving you. My favourite person on earth ever !!
So glad Chuck posted this. He understood that Patrice got his message, but apparently big fans of his books, right here in the comment section, still don't get it.
Miss you in 2022 Patrice.
Patrice was a Comedy Genius 👏🤣😭😂🤣
Fight Club is way more laid back than that. It's also a clear statement on the first American generation that understood collapse of family units. It appealedt to the intelligence of men from divorcee, dysfunctional single mother households. It showed what it would look like if we gave men a chance to remake society, not just square dudes.
Just came back to check this gem again. I almost feel embarrassed for liking fight club so much lol. He's 100% right. I enjoyed the movie because i could relate to it and this is probably the case for a lot of men. Just have to be honest with myself and realize this.
so right all my white friends love fight club lol
I'm the whitest white person ever and I thought this was hilarious.
Sir Joelsuf
Nice to meet you. Since my grandfather died, I have accepted the mantle of Darkest White Man alive.
Seriously, you know how many people ask me if I’m Mexican with blond hair? It’s weird
Using a phrase like "whitest white person" makes you the gayest person.
I'm not white and but it is one of my favorite all time films. I understand where Patrice is coming from I do not agree with his view. Almost any man living in the late 20th and 21st century can connect with this movie, including in non Western nations. If anything this movie is about middle class men leading their meaningless lives and who have for the majority bought into the idea of consumerism.
I love Patrice and I love Fight Club
the fact that this is in Chuck Palahniuk channel make it so wholesome
Oh for real!
1:18 Opie fucking says "Holla....holla"
Patrice nailed it. Years later and Jordan Peterson would talk about the movie and basically outline the exact arguments Patrice was making here.
If Fight Club was on Syfy it would be called 'Parking Lot Punching'.
First he deconstructs Radiohead and now I see this? Can I go anywhere as a white guy or have anything for myself? Goddamn you, Patrice, you black genius!
The line between camaraderie and a cult is a very fine line.
F*** I miss Patrice! No bs..THE MOST HONEST, MAKES YOU RETHINK EVERYTHING IN ITS REAL FORM! ……..he peels each layers and shows you the onion! REST IN POWER my old friend! I know your up there roasting Norm & Gilbert and oh and ah this new goofy new world and everyone in it, planet……..
i wanna see the soap movie
hahaha
How could one man attain so much correct insight. The man. R. I fuckin P
patrice hit it right on head... RIP big guy!
This is just fantastic!
love patrice and love your books, the one about the artist chick was awesome
Once again Opie added so much to the show.....
oPiE bAd!
Patrice is right, its about hating the fakeness of society (Tyler Durden's character) whilst simultaneously wishing to be accepted by it (Tyler Durden's appearance and style). Towards the end the hatred of society wins more and more (Popularity of fight club increases) until he no longer cares about being validated by society (Kills Tyler Durden's image and accepts he is Tyler Durden and the execution of project mayhem), then watches the world around him become destroyed.
At least that was my perception of it. Thats probably why Patrice didn't resonate it, because the premise is to get to that point you have to try your best to fit into a society you don't feel like you fit in. Whilst Patrice always told it like it is regardless and didn't care for societies validation from day 1.
"Its the ScarFace of White People" LOL as a middle eastern male I loved both movies Fight Club being my fav. That movie went so over Patrice's head :) Patrice is my fav comedian btw.
The guy is always on point man, can't deny it
Damn he is amazing!
I actually do love the movie as a sort of wake up call, a little slap in the face to make sure I’m going in the right direction of my life but this is accurate as hell lmaoooo
Oh man that guy said it, we do have a problem here. I love fight club, can't help it. It's awesome.
I really wish we could've heard his take on Blade Runner 2049.
I personally see fight club as being more concerned with the role of men in a modern society that has disenfranchised them to a large extent. Not sure there's even that big a racial aspect involved, even though Patrice seems to think there is. I disagree with him on that front.
Fight club (movie and book) is a little like Patrice's comedy. It's sharp, intelligent and hits it's intended target. In both cases that target is passive-aggressive guys who are confused about how to simply *be*.
yo has anyone realized that the uploader of this video is the writer of the original fight club book lmao
That’s pretty crazy how spot on that is.
It was so awesome when Opie said holla, he is such a real g. Keep it real homie.
Mitch Cumstein captain Murphy.... saw flylo back in 2015 I was right in front could see him sweat. Lol. Dude was dropping shrooms on stage n shit
@@kmatt420 CACACACA-CAPTAIN MURPHY
I had such a similar impression.
There is a 10 hours youtube clip of Patrice reviewing movies and it's the funniest shit ever , nobody could match Patrice's comedy .
I love Fight club! 1 of the best movies ever made imo...
Dude...I was clutching my stomach laughing at this. Punch Basement!!
Dam, Patrice would be killing it today.
“When I sawr it” 😆 RIP the legend
I laughed about that as well. If you like that then you'll love the way this lady says car
czcams.com/video/TjfONpsFvyM/video.html
Patrice is amazing...I saw him do a set at the Cellar last weekend...he's fucking insightful.
I miss Patrice ❤
Where is the full thing? I need it because there’s things in the missing ones that people don’t want you to know. There’s like 4 I can’t find.
What!? Patrice was once in studio with Ken Jeong?? Any idea on the show date?
Chucks such a good sport
"See what Patrice Oneal is up to on Twitter"
Sadly, not too much. R.I.P Patrice.
I wonder how common this interpretation was back then, because this 100% what the modern consensus for fight club’s message is.
Patrice roasted the entire "Sigma male" culture in 2010.
He is brutal! I'll never think of Fight Club the same way
So smart Patrice. Damn now I feel like a lame ass for liking the movie lol.
I like turtles
No offense, but if you stop liking something just because someone else confidently said that it sucks you kinda lack honesty and self esteem. It's perfectly fine to like something others don't
110% CORRECT!!!! RIP PATRICE
When I was a late teen who was angry and not getting laid this movie was everything. I think it's ridiculous at 45
It fades into Big Lebowski.
I don't know why this had me rolling, but it did.
Patrice with the Negan look. Respect.
Patrice is fucking right, but c'mon, Fight Club is a great movie!
Patrice is a Genius ❤
Syfy network... that brings back memories 🥲
I really like fight club mostly because it make me realize how much I was attach to object and money
