Worth a rewatch in theater.

Fuck, man... self fulfilling prophecy.

I saw that film so many times in the theater on its initial run that I feel asleep during one showing (late showing and I was tired as hell).

Did you wake up in a different city? Perhaps as a different person?

I saw it at the United Artist Theater in Times Square as a homework assignment my freshman year of college. Crazy enough, I saw the bus scene being filmed in Downtown LA my senior year of high school; of course, I didn't make the connection until I saw the movie.

Dude! I just got home. It was great, I was too young to see it in the theater when it came out. I had to wait for my brother to bring it home from blockbuster.
It did not disappoint

Same, I was also 14 when it came out. I've watched it countless times since, but something about watching in the theater make it more real. Idk, the ambiance, I guess.

I was learning Houdini (vfx software they used) when this came out and I was obsessed with this film. Still some of the best use of vfx to support the story. So much in your face vfx, sometimes I just enjoy seeing a camera fly behind an oven.

You need to read the book. A few things, especially about marla were changed for the movie. And parts of marla dont make sense until you know the biggest things they changed about her for the movie.

Oh, I've read it several times, and love both.

Before theaters had lounge chairs and servers bringing you chicken tenders and beer

Those comfy chairs are one of the few things I really like about the future.

I’m bracing for the downvotes………….
I loved Fight Club so much. I watched it countless times. Then it was coopted by meat heads who didn’t understand what it was about. (Same kind of disconnect when people have Punisher decals next to thin blue line stickers).
My point is…I’m over it. It made a good point, but such a fucking 90s point. The kind of point that needs to be made to an aimless generation in a decent economy.

It wasn’t prophetic, it was inevitable. That shit was already becoming the norm at the time.
