Hmm just casually severely missunderstanding the point of the film there I see. That's cool. Sure sure sure sure sure.
enferno8
Cool cool cool cool cool cool.

Blow up a building probably

Tyler Durden was in part based of Diogenes. Diogenes would burn Wall Street the fuck down.

Plot twist- the 1% caused high unemployment to get away with treating people like crap.. the workers could quit or strike but people are /1
PennyJaye
So desperate that there are literally thousands who would take their place, so the workers put up with it.

Become Christian Slater in Mr. Robot. The creator of that show denies he ripped off Fight Club

Palahniuk didn’t invent the concept of split personalities or people trying to take down society.
IamJacksanxiety
Depends on what Chuck Palahniuk says
Learningtobecomfy
How so?
PurpleHippo664
Great movie. Need to read the book.
nosoupforoldmen
Good movie but it quickly became jerk off material for douchebags
chanbara84
whoooaa. deep maaaaan
SirDistic
He would commit terrorism and blow up buildings to "Erase debt" Even back then companies had off-site storage for data.

I think it’s time to break the first rule of fight club

We've all been raised to believe we'll grow up to be millionaires...but we WON'T...and we're very, VERY pissed off.

If you think Tyler Durden is someone to emulate, you didn't understand the movie/book.
Pally01
You can appreciate his wisdom without imitating his every action.
Kupikimijumjum
Is this a healthy role model.jpg
Learningtobecomfy
Just because he was the villain in the story, doesn't mean his motivation (or possibly pretext for action) wasn't valid
HeadVoices
All villains are valid (heroes) until their ideals do not add up with societies at large. We need a hero we dont deserve.
sirleoiii
I mean, his pretext was "I am owed being a movie/rock/all star and I'm angry that I'm not being given that." It's a pretty shit motivation.
TheSecondPiewackit
In the book his motivation was a singular moment of pure perfection that justified all the hard work. Burning down the world qualified.
Learningtobecomfy
His motivation was to erase all debt so as to restart meritocratic democracy
TastyBrainMeats
Except that wouldn't work, his plan would harm poor people far more than it would rich people.
TheSecondPiewackit
"Human Sacrifice"
Learningtobecomfy
..... at least in the movie
TheSecondPiewackit
Not even in the movie. The purpose was to create chaos with a new start. There was no plan afterward. Just chaos.
Macules
Am I the only one who reads "don't fuck with us" as sounding more like fearful pleading?

memeseeks
I hear the book is very different from the movie.
afatrollofmyown
Tyler ends up in a mental institution, thinking he's in heaven cause everyone's in white, literally out of touch with his own mentally ill
MiZfUnKy45
That authors book are disturbing, I read only 2 of then and had to stop, was wigging me out
bonosboner
Mostly the ending.
memeseeks
Ah. Thank you.
JustGoWithIt191
Y'all. Tyler durden was a cult leader who preyed on insecure men with his toxic masculinity. He's the bad guy. Also he's gay.
rexmundi381931415
All of that is true. But is he wrong in the above statement?
KevynDietz
Within the context of the movie they represent a cult of extremists with a black and white world view: Fight Club is the type of

group that would burn someone down for firing a pedophile if that pedophile was a member of Fight Club.
alex5775
I've never seen it, but from what I've heard Fight Club is another one like Breaking Bad where many fans are men idolizing the main 1/

Character thereby completely missing the point.

This does appeal to the petulant 12-year-old boy in my soul, and I've yet to convince myself that the little bastard isn't absolutely right
DemSumBigAssRidges
If loving this is wrong, I don't want to be right!
Megahudson
I fully believe in demolishing the buildings that house the sick leeches who own the credit companies. Fuck it
WoeToHice
You should read the book. It was much more ambiguous and less simplistic than the movie. That said, I loved the movie.
ManByTechnicality
I'd give each their pros and cons. Ending of the movie much better, overall character development in the book was much better.
CapnAndy
Tyler Durden would start a fascist terrorist group because HE'S NOT A ROLE MODEL STOP MISSING THE FUCKING POINT
Learningtobecomfy
The most compelling antagonists are such because they use true things to justify horrible actions.
afatrollofmyown
A broken clock still right twice a day.
CapnAndy
Yeah and Hitler invented the Autobahn, I'm pretty sure if I cite him rather than Eisenhower to justify highways I'm telling on myself

Goddamn. Me and my college best friend saw that 7 times in the theater. I'm a 40 y/o stay-home mom now, and still love that fuckin' movie.
ventikona
We saw it at a second-run movie theatre so it was only $2. Im so old.
LateNightBunnyParty
Ours were always $1 second-run theaters. A poor 90's kid could have a good weekend at one of those theaters, couldn't we?
LateNightBunnyParty
We were snuck by my then-boyfriend's brother, who was a security guard at the mall.

With Rich people's fat and sell them back to them.
DarthTruman
This is a chemical burn
RhinoNaut
Tyler Durden would stick his dick in crazy and burn down Wall Street.
needlestosay
I only watched half the movie, so I know he did at least one of those
AlwaysTiredLiliVonSchtupp
*spoiler Edward Norton is Tyler Durden.
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
Tyler would rob a bank, put all the money in GME, change the password on his account and throw it away.
theDogter
Did
MightyZephyr
TheNewYellowZealot
He did though.
Simtao
Wall Street hasn't been fucked like that since grade school.

DarthVadersBigBluePenguin
And marry crazy behind jacks back while keeping things moving. There is a 2nd graphic novel.
ElusiveBastar
He also would storm the capital. Dude literally (by proxy) led skin heads.
truemetalman
Tyler was a bona fide anarchist. He'd storm the capital, but not for trump.
TheSecondPiewackit
He'd have burned the capitol and everyone inside.
StunttheRunt
Exactly. He'd do it too sure chaos, disrupt social order and level the playing fields in society not because some orange maniac played him.
KevynDietz
Tyler wasn't an anarchist because he had no care for any sort of functional system: he was only for destruction for the sake of distruction.
SometimesISayHistoryStuff
Yeah, I kinda think the people who've lionized Durden didn't get the point of the movie/novel.
CptRobotNinja
Yyyeeeaaahh...Durden is....not a hero
OperationRustysBlanket
Lionized is such a cool word
IamJacksanxiety
I'm down with some Tyler Durden or V for Vendetta right now. Let's shake things up
TheSecondPiewackit
I'd prefer V. Movie V that is. Less anarchistic.
