It was during TFA, I forget what poster said it but it was hilarious.

I thought it was BKB during BvS? It could have been anyone. I don't remember that much negativity for TFA that opening night because jesus I remember that line. I've never seen one that long in all my years of going to the movies. It was like getting on a ride at an amusement park and wrapped around the building.

Im in Southern California, and it's raining really really hard down here... 

 

I dont know if the weather is like this throughout the West Coast, but we normally are not fond of going places when it's raining, and it's raining pretty hard.

Now that could effect things! West Coast might not be as strong tonight.

Actually it's better to enjoy Fight Club for "shallow reasons". I've seen dudes who look at that silly movie like it's their Bible and it's very creepy. 

 

Well it goes both ways. People who love it for the violence. And people who take its "fuck materialism" message way too seriously. 

[Kvikk Lunsj]

So I am trying to save 30 seats for a kids party. I hope this goes well.

Zodiac is Fincher's best. 

 

Fight Club is definitely top 5 for me but I don't think it's super edgy to think it isn't. Gone Girl, Social Network, Zodiac (duh), Dragon Tattoo, and Seven are all great.

Zodiac and The Social Network are Fincher's best for me. 

 

Then Fight Club, Seven and Panic Room. I enjoyed The Game too.

 

The rest are ok.

Fight Club is more relevant now that its time of release.

 

Social Network is so 2010 already.

 

Very much disagree. 

[Jack Nevada]

Zodiac, The Social Network, Se7en and Gone Girl are better than Fight Club - which is still a damn good film! GOD FINCHER. 

[CoolioD1]

i would say fight club is of its time in that it's part of that "history is over nothing important will ever happen to our generation maaan" series that really filled up late 90s cinema.

[The Futurist]

Too bad his 20 000 leagues under the sea went nowhere ...

right. its themes are universal with the facebook stuff being the only thing that really nails it to a time period. AND LAST I CHECKED its still a pretty popular site, if less cool because all of our grandmas are on it.

He's right. It's not.

 

 

 

So 50 years from now people are going to re-watching Social Network, Dragon Tatoo, Alien 3, Panic Room and Benjamin Buttons a dozen times instead of Fight Club?

 

Fight Club and Se7en are what put Fincher on the map. 

 

He has a couple other classics but not enough to push Fight Club out of his top 5.

Shitty number is shitty

I know, right? Why can't every single Marvel movie have a $200 million opening weekend? They might as well give up.

[Jack Nevada]

The only genuinely bad Fincher movies are The Game and Benjamin Button. The latter especially, it's the most boring thing I've seen.

[Rman823]

Nothing will beat Seven. I mean What's In The Box ? is one of my favorite movie moments. Zodiac, Gone Girl, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, and Panic Room round out my Top 5.

[johnboy3434]

No love for Alien 3?

you seem like a guy who demands everyone's top 100 lines up with imdb at least 50%.

Yeah and they didn't have any of the corny Fifth Estate, Blackhat "whoaaa going inside the computers" stuff which makes any movie feel dated in a few years.
