Finished it, stupid movie, waste of time. Thumbs down, not worth watching. Shitty 'plot', stupid graphic scenes of nudity and violence. Just filth and sick mind.

Christian Bale's career was made playing Patrick Bateman! What Getbigger doesn't love that movie?

Am I the only person who thought this was a rare occasion where the movie was better than the book?

IMO the book was too blatant, the murders were obvious, and everything was really long-winded. The movie left you questioning everything, like whether he did really those things or not.

I really have a hard time seperating patrick bateman from true adonis. They have way to much in common.

BEE is a good author but his tedious description of everything the person is wearing is tiresome.

" I live in the American Gardens Building on W. 81st Street on the 11th floor. My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion."

Absolutely loved the book. Thought the movie was a bit disappointing, since only very little of the humor from the book carries over. I mean I can see how they can't fit 10 page discussions over stupid shit into a 90 minutes movie, but eh.

Read the rest of his oeuvre minus one or two books after American Psycho. Felt like he just wrote the same book over and over again with different characters and settings. His writing is too one-dimensional. Personally, I'd say read American Psycho and skip the rest.

Yeah, the pages discussing a Phil Collins album or his detailed description of his breakfast or his description of his nuts being like "2 large plums"was pretty epic.  I actually love the book, one of my all-time favs.

Try reading "The Republic" by Plato or "Civil Disobedience And Other Essays" by Henry David Thoreau...
If that is not your cake, try the literary classic "The Prince" by Niccolò Machiavelli

Same here, reading a fictional book, is like having a 20 hour conversation about what you might of done last weekend. I much prefer reading text books.

Fight Club might be another. Great book, but even the author preferred the film. Probably The Shining, too.

I loved another of Chuck's books too, but forget the name... had storys about some dude jerking off with a glass rod pushed down his dick and it breaks off... and bowling balls bouncing hills smashing people and people thinking they were "smot by god". lol... crazy shit.

Haunted. About an authors' retreat; the book is mostly a collection of their short stories. They were supposed to make a movie of it, too. Not sure what ever became of it. My favorite Palahniuk book is Survivor, about a death cult survivor's rise to superstardom. Another one set for film that got scrapped after 9/11. The story involved a plane hijacking, so bad timing.
