I'm one of the few who hated it.
I found it so boring with way too long of a build up.
Then again I've got a knack for hating critically acclaimed films. The Departed, The Godfather, Scarface, The Usual Suspects, Road to Perdition...I found them all to be pretty boring....

Basically, its the most successful cult movie of all time. I'd have to say The Rocky Horror Picture Show takes that distinction. IMO it's the definition of "cult movie".

OK. I'll ask... Why are you talking about Fight Club? The first rule of Project Mayhem is you do not ask questions.

Inspired one of my favourite recent jokes on TV. On the IT Crowd Moss becomes champion on a gameshow called Countdown and is invited to an exclusive club for Countdown champions. Another member of the club, jealous of Moss' status, challenges him to a game of Street Countdown.
"The first rule of Street Countdown... Tell as many people as you can. It's a fun game and we think people would enjoy it so try and get the word out." ;D

I always love the scenes towards the end where the narrator is noticing that everyone in the city is in on it, something amusing about all that to me.

I think it's a really good, but not great, movie. There are some quality lines and scenes, but something about the it makes it impossible to latch onto it for me. I also don't think of it as an all-time great movie, or even the best of 1999.
I preferred the book, even though Chuck himself doesn't.

It's interesting how September 11th and the recession haven't really affected how the movie is viewed.

Rosie O'Donnell got into trouble with her audience because she spoiled the movie for them in one of her self-righteous rants.
I loved this movie. I love Fincher's work.
