LOL! I saw something like this before. There was also one for "Fight Club", it was something like "Hello my friend and mutual aquaintance, DIE BEFORE MY FISTS!"

Funny thing, Nightflower--I just watched Fight Club last night. That is some sick, depraved, lust-crazed, violent [expletive deleted]! Fav scenes--Edward Norton getting lye poured on his wrist (great lines about God being dead and the only way to have total freedom is to lose it all) by Brad Pitt...and later blackmailing his boss, then beating himself up. Unfortunately I nodded off and missed the ending, so I'm going to have to hope they'll run that baby again soon.

Fight Club is one of the best films of the 90s and one of the few which actual had substance, a deep thought provoking view on how we run our lives. I hope you do get to see the ending! (I own it on DVD, woohoo!)

Excellent DVD, too! It's DVDs like that that get people to finally cross over from VHS to DVD! That is an essential title to add to any collection.
