the guy who wrote fight club ?
definetly will check out some of his books in future
Yeah, Fight club was cool. The ending was much better in the book.
the movie ending was stupid. If he lived, why did Tyler die?
He created Tyler because he needed Tyler-because Tyler was capable of doing things he wasn't like vandalising and being incredibly cool. What the narrator couldn't do was act like that, so when he shot himself, it was such an extreme act that he no longer needed another person in his subconscious, because he realized he could do anything.
And Survivor is my favorite, by far.
If that is an original thought I give you credit, very imaginative guess, but I still don’t buy it. I might (buy it) if I hadn’t already read the book, which has such a powerful ending, that even the slightest change would be a huge mistake. If you’re familiar with the book, you’ll know what I mean when I say the only good reason for any deviation from the book was to keep the principle alive, and the less sophisticated audience happy.
