Fight Club author - Chuck Palahniuk.

A great author with  a different style of writing. I read the book after seeing the movie and I do recall that it had somewhat of a twist to the story.

Not certain about this but didn't the Brad Pitt character only exist within the imagination of the Ed Norton character?

I can't recall the term used when a character within a story is thought to be real but ain't ...  such as the Pitt character in Fight Club .... nor when a character within a screenplay turns out to be something or someone that you the audience  did not expect ... such as Bruce Willis in The Sixth Sense .... but it is one hell of a way to tell a great story.

Anyone know of any screenplay presented in a similar style?

Both were major box office hits when they were released.

The best similar type motion picture I've ever seen was a foreign film that was completely confusing for the first 60 minutes and eventually becomes completely understandable during the final ten.

It is the story of an insane inmate as seen through the inmate's eyes until the inmate is cured .... then the movie becomes understandable.

A much better movie than the way I explained it.

I have yet to read CHOAK though.




Choke is excellent, stunt, made it into a movie as well (with Sam Rockwell, not bad). Survivor is every bit as good as FC, and Invisible Monsters is fantastic, too.

So let me get this straight. You knew Chuck trained at the same gym and wanted to get a pic with him but instead of just asking him to take a pic, you went online and ordered a Fight Club soap bar from some novelty site and then kept it in your gym bag while hoping Chuck would show at the gym and then you saw him, ran to your locker and pulled out the bar of soap and brought it back to the gym floor, thrust it in Chuck's face while ogling that you're a huge fan and asked a bystander to take a photo while you re-created the moment a second time? That's a lot of effort to take a pic with an invisible celebrity. I'd hate to see what you'd do if you bumped into the writer of SAW. .

 :D

I can see his pathetic ass jiggling as he jogs to the locker room to dig through his gym bag to find the soap.
