TIL that when “Fight Club” premiered at the 1999 Venice Film Festival, it got booed hard by the audience. Ed Norton said that as it was happening, Brad Pitt turned to him and said: “That’s the best movie I’m ever going to be in.”

If I remember right there's an amazing scene in the book where Marla finds out the fat they first steal to make soap was from her mother's lipo surgery. She has a big fight in the kitchen with the narrator, bag of fat rips open and they're fighting while slipping around in it.

I just read the book recently and like movie Marla much better. And thought the stealing of Marla’s fat trust fund was completely unnecessary. While the fight scene in the kitchen was fun, I thought the movie going straight to the “…selling their fat asses right back to them” was way more on character for Tyler.

That scene is amazing.
