Tear Up Nation- ' He's a villain for being so damn 😎. I got to say this is one of my favorite mental relaxation films and plus American beauty keep up these videos man. P.s nice beard.

Hey there I was wondering if you can possibly do a video about Jonah libret from the anime called " monster" I really think it's Worthy of this channel

I was wondering if that was you! To be honest I always imagined you looking more like Kiefer Sutherland because of your voice!

There's a Fight Club 2 and 3? Why am I just finding out about this? 😡

Wow, and i just began watching this again yesterday ^_^ thx bro!

I second this.. lol

Yes!

Great suggestion!

🤣🤣

This would honestly be excellent especially if it includes the 2 recent movies.

That plot-twist completely blew my mind when I saw it sometime last year.

it’s so ironic that “You do not talk about Fight Club” is the most famous line in the movie

It’s repeated twice to emphasize that rules are meant to be broken. Tyler knew people would talk about it, you need break the rules slowly.

exactly my experience

Its a line that came from the book so probably not

Source?

@@Lennart.4444 interview with the author of fight Club

Source - trust me bro

@@mrsevenchang he literally gave his source

@@mrsevenchang he literally said interview with the author

I would argue Jack finds absolutely no solace whatsoever in the bullshit he fills his home with. He buys things for the same reason he went to college and won't quit a job that demonstrably means nothing to him. He has no defined sense of who he is internally, so he just does "what other people do."

It's just like a video game. 😊

Yet he believes in this because he wanted to impress Marla. He created the entire “fight club” philosophy out of the desire to create a persona she would love it’s why the film starts with him saying “this all started with a girl named Marla” he literally created a cult just show he could bring a woman into his life

@@RedVelvetBlackleather i think every guys subconsciously do that. Whatever we do, we do it for “family” even when we have nobody. Just for that one future wife

What a truly gay saying

@@pepironi992 Yeah it’s super pessimistic..... nihilism I think is the lowest form of “intelligence” one can have its the easier argument to make especially since you can than further justify other sub positions like being a hedonist.

@@RedVelvetBlackleather yes, but for whatever reason a large segment of white males enjoys watching this sort of revenge p0rn as if they were so mistreated and misunderstood their whole lives, that they’re the true victims and can live out their violent revenge fantasies through Tyler Durden or the joker

This is the single most overrated film of our lifetime. The plot in itself really makes no sense and it’s impossible based on the twist in the end For whatever reason, this movie connected strongly with middle class white males who have all this repressed anger and most of them are virgins Similar to the love white people have towards the song creep by Radiohead. (I am also white btw) And it’s not a good obsession, the popularity of this movie especially amongst white people is deeply troubling Not sure which movie is worse - fight club or the joker. Both are bottom of the barrel tho

"I felt like destroying something beautiful"? That is a narcissist. Narcissists are pathologically envious, and they often latch onto people and things in an attempt to "absorb" things that they want. These are not people who can be happy for others. Everything is a competition and all they can do is burn with envy that someone has something they don't. Whatever it is, it becomes a constant reminder to the narcissist of their failure and worthlessness. If they cannot acquire it, they will attempt to ruin it so that nobody has it. They would rather see it destroyed than see it belong to someone else. Narcissists envy other people many things, because inside they know that they are not truly a "real person." If somebody has a talent or a good quality, the malignant narcissist endeavors to take these things away from that somebody. They will do whatever they can to destroy or disrupt it - and they delight in doing so. The trick here is to hide it from them so they cannot do that. They are also simple creatures, and they are attracted to anything shiny and pretty. Unfortunately with the malignant narcissist, "attraction" means "envy," which means "attempts to destroy." Envy is a very primitive its actually an early form of hatred. We see this more primitive manifestation of envy in children and narcissism in a very primitive form. The sort of envy that we have in pathological narcissism is an excruciating experience of inner lack in comparison to what someone else possesses and attributes. and a desire to have what that other person possesses. Not in a way of aspiring to acquire it but in a way of taking it from them and destroying them. Bit like This internal sense of lack that seeks to destroy what others have that is perceived as good or as worthy. Envy becomes for the narcissist this compulsive need to destroy all that which is good, beautiful and which has any hint or semblance of superiority to them. This the experience of envy for the narcissist is largely unconscious, if they allow themselves to experience it consciously for any given period of time it is incredibly painful. The way that narcissists neutralize envy is through devaluing others and contempt. Beneath the narcissists exterior is this pathological envy and deep inner sense of emptyiness and shame. If they could access those feelings then they lose their psychological ground. They have a pathological hatred for everything that is good and beautiful and therefore they must destroy. Underneath all this is a particular personality structure that the narcissist deep down is a defense against that. The unconscious wave of dealing with envy with an individual who at their core is highly fragmented in terms of how they see themselves. Narcissists will go to whatever lengths they have to in order to get what they want and so oftenwhat they want is revenge. They believe they have been wronged and they react with rage when the world does not give them what they want. They take pleasure in hurting people. The goal of the narcissist is literally to destroy, especially someone they think cares about them. Abuse is integral to a narcissist. It is all they know and the only way they can feel better. No love no good graces, a narcissist is capable of neither. The narcissist is like a shark, or a machine that is designed to do only one thing. they cannot be swayed, appealed to, reasoned with, deviated or stopped. Hurting others literally makes them feel better. You can never make them feel good enough that they will stop. The only thing you can do is get out of their way. other people do not matter to them at all. they see them as an extension of themselfself, not an actual person and as such they wish to possess and control others. That's it. The narcissist has a vicious, sadistic Superego (the part of a person's mind that acts as a self-critical conscience, reflecting social standards learned from parents and teachers) that attacks them all the time with horrible, terrible things: "You're worthless, no one likes you, you're scum, you're a terrible person, there is nothing good about you..." They create a False Self to hide that, which is why they seem so arrogant, etc. But they are under attack by this Superego all the time, nearly every second, and so when they find a partner, this narcissist takes all that sadistic viciousness they are hearing from the Superego out on the partner to make themselves feel better. This is the only way they have to make themselves feel better and because of this, they are never going to stop doing it. You cannot make them see they are doing this; it's a defense mechanism. They have to believe their partner or others around them really are terrible people. It's essential to their whole being as a person and they cannot stop. More importantly, they don't want to stop. They are truly evil people who literally desire to destroy others because they are jealous and believe that other people have things (love, sex, material things, popularity) that they (the narcissist) are being purposely and spitefully denied. The true narcissist is a dangerous, conscious-less, selfish, sadistic and evil person. And really, calling them a person is a misnomer. They are not truly people in the strict sense of the word. That is why a lot of people have the same reaction to narcissists as they do to very human-like androids. People can accept and even like androids, so long as they do not seem too human (like C3PO). But when an android seems too much like a human (such as this one), people often react with revulsion, disgust and even fear or panic. This is called the uncanny valley hypothesis and it is the same reaction you often see to a narcissist; people aren't sure why they feel that way but something just feels "off" and it's a strong feeling, so strong that usually after an encounter or two, many people will stay away from the narcissist. This is the "alien" aspect of the narcissist and we see it over and over again; people can see that something is not right. They are sensing that the narcissist is a fraud and not a real human being at all. Others often cannot articulate what it is they don't like about the narcissist - who usually seems to be the picture of friendliness and sincerity - they just know they don't like it. Read about any murder or crime where people were really hurt; chances are, you'll find one of these terrible humanoids at the bottom of it. Jails and prisons are full of narcissists. The only thing they care about is what they can use somebody for, and they will be whoever and whatever they have to be to get it. They don't care about other people's suffering or feelings; do you care how your couch feels when you sit on it? Do you wonder if you are being fair to your toaster? They are a true and accurate mimic, but don't be fooled. Narcissists are truly handicapped and crippled human beings in that regard: they have no real feelings at all for anyone other than themselves. And the scary thing is, they are almost sickeningly easy to create. What they are is really nobody at all. They are shells walking through life seeking fulfillment, and the only way to get what they need is by using and abusing other people. Narcissists can be dangerous, violent people. They will go to whatever lengths they have to in order to get what they want. They see people as either stumbling blocks in their way or stepping stones to use. That's it and that's all. The narcissist will discredit you, lie about you, ruin your life, physically hurt you or even kill you in order to get you out of the way if he wants something bad enough. They're crippled, defective shells masquerading as people that are incapable of love or of ever being happy.

This the cycle of the life, you goes from dumb rebel to dumb conservative...lol

@@aliross2720 I don’t think it’s only about envy. It’s rather a loss of identity in today’s world because most people life a pretty similar life and feel like they can’t get out of this cycle. If you mix this with the constant barrage of media, consumerism, loneliness, slowly building up anger and frustration and the result is someone who wants to be like Tyler durden or sees similarities between himself and Travis bickle. I feel like especially those two characters are idolized mostly by men these days because they relate to their hate for society wich is obviously not something anyone should aspire to be like but I can understand why a lot of people feel some kind of connection to those characters

@@gggallin8279 I understand what you are saying. There is often a sense of helplessness surrounding the whole situation, as though things are just happening and people have no control over them. This is not the case! You're not helpless. You do have strength. You do have power. All you have to do is decide to use it and it will be there. The way to start repairing self esteem and learned helplessness, is to take control, both of your life and your feelings. No one is responsible for your feelings or your life but you, and no one can fix these things but you. People who suffer from learned helplessness have been conditioned to believe that they cannot change the way things are. They have learned to be helpless, in other words. Because of this, they have essentially given up trying and simply endure things. There is often a large amount of depression involved with learned helplessness, as well as a big component of anger. ll of the grandiosity, entitlement and self-focus you see in a narcissist is a defense mechanism against the conditioned and ingrained idea that they have no control over anything and no escape from it. Much of their hostility is also the direct result of feeling so helpless and out of control inside. The first thing that is necessary to take your power back is to accept the situation as it is. A huge amount of the pain and stress that we as human beings experience in our lives is due to not wanting to accept the reality of how things are. We agonize over how we think things should be, or they way we would like them to be. This is understandable but it's pointless. Things are the way that they are. That's not to say we never work for change or to ascend our current circumstances but refusing to accept things the way they are is not how you get there. Stressing over not being able to control other people or situations is not how you get there, either. This is probably one of the biggest things people stress over: not being able to control other people and situations. Acceptance is realizing that you can only do what you can do. You only have control over yourself and your actions. That's all. Other people are going to do what they are going to do and that's all there is to it. They are going to think what they are going to think, they are going to believe what they are going to believe and there's nothing you can do about any of it except live your truth and be responsible for your own behavior. Everything else is out of your control, and it's important to accept that. There is no point in stressing over things you cannot change. This includes the past, it includes the present and it includes the future. After you accept the situation for what it is and stop trying to control or fix it, then you can start letting go of the responsibility you feel to do these things. No one is responsible for your feelings but you. We react to things the way we do for our own reasons, and once we take ownership of that, people can no longer manipulate us using them.. facing them is necessary to grow and understand that as adults, people are not helpless. They can and do have a choice, in nearly every situation that could present itself. It may be difficult to acknowledge these things, but taking a more active role in your own life is never going to be wrong. It all begins and ends with what you believe. It sounds cliche, but what you tell yourself really does matter. In order to use the power, you first have to understand that you have it. Narcissists give their power away by blaming other people for their feelings, behavior, choices, words and by trying to force others to take responsibility for them. They have assigned these things to you and will behave as if you - not they - are responsible for all of them. This is how they function in relationships with others and it does not change. This is the function of the dysfunction. Pathologically narcissistic people are like children in this way; they feel helpless and controlled. Powerless and dependent in a world full of people with more power than they have. They don't realize that it is their own dependence on others which creates this skewed power dynamic in the first place. They generally know on some level that they are dependent and are usually resentful of others because of it, but like children, they seem to simply assume this is how it is. They don't realize that they actually do have power over themselves and their circumstances, that they are choosing the path of powerlessness by refusing to evolve in whatever ways they could. What you see is what you get: an unstable person with unstable emotions and an unstable reality who does not have anything to give anyone else. This is part of the reason why narcissists behave as if life and circumstance are something that just happens to them, rather than as something they have any control over or input in. They are struggling with learned helplessness. Narcissists feel acted upon by the world rather than people who act in the world. They believe happiness is something other people are supposed to give them, rather than something which comes from acceptance and understanding within yourself. Narcissists do not understand that their happiness and all their other emotions are their own responsibility. They place this responsibility on others and they are devastated and furious when people do not come through for them. Other people cannot heal you. They cannot fix you. They cannot save you. They cannot complete you. You have to do these things for yourself and you do that by realizing where the solution is. People are not responsible for the feelings of other people. They are not responsible for their happiness, their reactions, their decisions, their failures or their successes. And they are not responsible for yours. Happiness is not something you find, happiness is something you create by being open to it and breaking negative thinking patterns. True happiness comes from within, from self love and self worth. Regardless of the reason or reasons behind it, negativity is generally just another habit people have gotten into over time. Sometimes the mind is creating negativity because you are afraid of something. The key to changing negative thoughts is to find out where they are coming from and then change your reaction to that. If they are coming from fear, you would need to find out what the fear is based on and address that. If they are the result of criticism or abuse and invalidation in childhood, that needs to be processed so that you can move on. After you address the root cause, you can break the habit and change your reaction to situations that are going on now. It's not always as difficult as it sounds. Often once these things are faced, their power over you becomes greatly reduced. So much of what we are and what we do is habit and learned behavior, even how we react emotionally. That's one the best things about it, because habits can be broken and new ways can be learned. All it really takes is awareness and a willingness to challenge yourself. we can sometimes get bogged down by the mundane or unpleasant things that happen and we can forget how much we have to be grateful for. living more intentionally and practicing gratitude helps a lot. Even in the darkest times of your life, there are still things to be grateful for. Sometimes finding them can be the difference between making it through these times and not, so it's a good idea to get in the habit of practicing gratefulness every day. If you are feeling truly grateful, it's hard to be unhappy-even when things are not going as well as they could be. Practicing gratitude has other benefits as well. People who practice gratitude are Less self-centered, Less judgmental, More generous, Happier, Less depressed. Because of the society we live in people are looking outside of themselves for validation and completion. And they are not finding it, because the truth is, if what you already have doesn't make you happy, what makes you think more will? This is where practicing gratitude comes in. It's learning to appreciate and be grateful for what you already have. Not just material things but also spiritually, emotionally or any other way. practicing gratitude is a way to remind yourself that things aren't as bad as we sometimes imagine them to be. Maybe when you wake up, you can go over your goals for the day and add something to be grateful for. You might say, "Today my goal is to pinpoint my negative thoughts and I am grateful that I have this opportunity to make my life better." It might sound silly or small, but try it for a week and see the difference it makes. It really is about simply switching the focus of your mind from one way of looking at things to another. It's possible. It just takes practice. There are so many things, from the big to the small, for which to practice gratitude. If you ate today, you can be grateful you ate, because so many didn't. If you didn't eat, you can be grateful you can breath when so many others cannot. Every day we are alive and walking around on this earth is a day to practice gratitude. There are so many amazing things about life and living. If someone only ever focuses on what they don't have and what they can't do, they will always be unhappy. There is always something you can't do. There will always be things you don't have. If you can learn to be happy with what you already have, everything else is a bonus.

if jack just saw a competent doctor, none of this would have happened

@@denniszetstkiman Or changed careers. Or made some actual friends.

That’s not at all even close to what happened… Tyler asks for prescribed narcotics. Asking if he can give him something and the doctor says no and tells him that he needs natural sleep and to try valerian root. Further confirming he wanted marcotics is after that he whines “I’m in pain” to which the doctor tells him “you want to see real pain? Go to this place and see the guys with testicular cancer” You make it seem like he told the doctor he has insomnia and the doctor told him to go to sleep…

Christ, I've had Doctor's worst than that: Doctor: How do you know you have ADHD? Me: I've been tested 3 times and have all the symptoms. Doctor: Have you ever done the dishes? Me: yes? Doctor: Then you don't have it. Me: *...*

I love the Paranoia Agent pfp

This is how I interpret it as well. The Narrator doesn't want what he's created ultimately. It's not absorbing but an overcoming. David Fincher even mentions that he has to kill his teacher. I view it as a story of self-actualization. People also downplay the importance of Marla to the story. I view her as a more healthy expression of the freedom from societal expectations he'd been desiring.

Yeah same I was so confused when he said that in the video😭

This is my interpretation as well because it fits perfectly with the message of letting go Tyler tries to convey to the narrator throughout the film.

I also didn't see it as him choosing to rule the new world with Marla at his side (or however Vile Eye put it) but to just fade into the background of the destruction he's wrought and try not to make it any worse.

I always saw it as the symbol of him severing his need for Tyler and becoming who he was always meant to be, which is a cross between his original self and Tyler's

That's whats so great about investing in Magic Spoon - Tyler durden

"Marlas philosophy of life is that she might die at any moment. The tragedy, she said, was that she didn't". - Narrator. So many quotes from that movie.

Epic Line by a Epic villain..an everlasting truth..

I always thought this. The organization became everything he supposedly preached against in the beginning

In my opinion the movie muddies whether or not you're supposed to sympathize with Tyler. First of all, they got Brad Fucking Pitt to play him, and movie audiences are just hardwired to root for people as attractive and charismatic as Brad Pitt. Secondly, the different ending really does make it seem like the credit card buildings blowing up is overall a good thing. Then there's the fact that Jack doesn't kill anybody in the movie. But honestly I think the biggest thing is the movie leaves out a lot of Jack's inner monologue that shows how disturbed he is

You picked up that they're the same person right lol

The meetings are a metaphor for gay cruising.

What that is saying is that as soon as he thought he was actually sleeping was when tyler was doing shit, meaning tyler was active far before the narrator meets him, and that tyler showing himself was because the narrator was done with his life and escaping with one personality was no longer enough. The flashing images of tyler support this

Watch out for the dog leashes arround your neck string us long everytime when my wife starts arguing I find myself in the basement talking too Tyler it's pure meditation lol

No, he believes he is going to sleep, and that's when tyler takes over fully. Very common in Dissociative Identity Disorder. Switching out feels like falling asleep, and the inner world feels like a dream, well more accurately, the other way around for that person. It's not meant to be a perfect replica of DID but I can 100% tell you I have a friend who has DID, and she constantly thinks she slept, but one of her other personas was awake and controlling the body. Worse, they often actually go to sleep themselves later. so she wakes up in the morning thinking she went to bed at 11pm, but one of her alters was flirting with men online and trying on all her outfits and went to bed at 4am. So it's literally like getting blackout drunk and going to bed eventually, but the going to bed first is the easiest way to be tricked. Because before you get diagnosed, the DID system always tries to trick the host (the main fronter who identifies with the name and body) into thinking there is no split, and they are just crazy, have bad memory, gaslight themselves and others etc, afterwards, they still do things not just to "help", but to have their own control

I know this is a old comment but I prefer the movie version because that makes the situation much more morally grey. Sure you can still argue what he is doing is still wrong and would probably end up hurting more people, but it gives us the viewers more to work with and is a more realistic alternative compared to "destroying history"

@@joshjonson2368 To attain a look like that requires a ridiculous amount of effort, Einstein. I'm guessing you've never applied a diet like that, the routines to get those abs, the skincare, earned the money for that level of on point fashion etc. How does that help his philosophical argument? "Burn down all your crap while I look like a male model." Granted the Narrator is not sane, but Tyler doesn't look like he practice what he preaches. He reminds me of a MegaChurch pastor. "Be humble, serve your fellow man, all you need is Jesus." Meanwhile, he has shiny teeth, 4K suit, 30K Patek Philippe, a million dollar jet. They're hypocrites. I wouldn't buy what either is selling.

@@JamesRDavenport yea sure you don't have to specifically have full faith in Tyler Durden, but the overarching message is something any man should resonate with if they're stuck in a deadbeat job surrounded by people who don't give a shit about them.

He got truly great points about consumerism and modern society draining the life off us; problem is in the conclusion/"solution" he reaches.

This isn't a bad introduction to Tyler, but the genius of the script is that it takes things like this and morphs them into the "we have the same briefcase" scene on the airplane. Which allows for the scene where the two planes crash into each other. In Palahniuk's own words, "Fincher made a better movie than the book I wrote."

Doesn't Marla call him Tyler at one point, after he says Tyler isn't there?

That’s what I like to think too, but given that the narrator uses aliases in the support group it’s likely that Tyler is just another alias.

Tyler Durden is his real name and is the real personality. The narrator is the split personality. We essentially watch Tyler’s alter ego slowly take over completely, until he “kills” the real Tyler leaving the second personality. You’ll notice that the narrator only has control for short periods of time and mostly during times that don’t really matter. Then over time he is there more and more while the real Tyler is there until finally he takes over completely in the end.

Tyler is his real name. Marla and the men at the restaurant in NY or Chicago I think? Also do too. Brad Pitt is a different vision of himself that makes quick and confident decisions.

The narrator's real name was never even mentioned in the first half of the movie. All the names he used in the group therapies are fake and not even Tyler refers to the narrator by name. So I can see why it would be interesting to speculate that Tyler Durden really is his real name. Fvcker hasn't slept in 6 months so it's not too crazy for him to forget his own name.

Cause they are gay. The movie is about a gay romance.

Good thought. He could keep narrator in dark, even if it’s not real name because narrator would notice being call Tyler

Ultimately, he doesn’t have to be his real name for your thought to be true

@@veerlaff5528 well in the book it make sense. In the end of the book he is locked up in a mental ward. Marla goes and visits him and while there he reveals that Tyler isn’t gone. That the aids will refer to him as Tyler Durdan instead of Sabasitain.

Tyler is his real name, Marla calls him Tyler

To me, the fact that Jack's behavior of being frantic and erratic, and trying to stop the bombs before shooting himself, and his acceptance of the explosions and how "everything will be ok" is proof that the two became one.

They're not. In my opinion the movie is actually better than the novel, and the sequels are not even close to the same level as the novel OR the movie.

It shocked me when he mentioned Fight Club 2 and 3. I had no idea.

Does the movie ever argue that being extreme is a bad thing? Like the revelation that the narrator is running a shadow organization is surprising and he even tries to spoil Tylers plan but the moment the buildings explode is almost triumphant. It’s also an interesting detail that no one is in any of the buildings. Tylers extreme act doesn’t even have any negative consequences other than erasing debt which arguably is a heroic thing. I’m just curious if any political point is being made, or if the movie is mostly about masculinity and anti capitalism is just a distraction.

@@dally1398 yes because people die and the narrator completely loses himself. Since project mayhem, things have completely gone downhill.

I’ve always looked at the ending of being triumphant because the narrator conquered Tyler, and embraces Marla and they’re just there for the show because it’s inevitable.

@@ollytherevenant1653 this, also while chaos will happen because of the Credit Card buildings getting blown up, it IS ultimately better than letting it continue.

I hope I never end up thinking like you

But you have to break the rules cos rules are meant to be broken. Tyler knows they will break the first 2 rules and so start getting comfortable with rule breaking.

Idk if that was him for sure... maybe he will confim

I don’t think that was him

Chad

Only skipped the sponsorship because of those who own that product. I skip that particular sponsorship on all videos.

He looks totally different than I thought he would lol

When you think about it karate kid and fight club both occur because of a woman Johnny only is mad at Daniel because he’s interested in Allie and Daniel inserts himself in conflict with Johnny solely to get close to her. Fight club happens because Tyler believed only if he was a revolutionary would Marla see him as exciting enough to love him. People always seem to ignore this fact for some reasons

This movie is literally the opposite of a cult classic.

What if I stole that to impress somebody who is not into deep quotes,

definitely marlo stanfield and stringer bell !

Those three were pure evil with no redeeming qualities except for Chris...

Snoop a blatant sociopath

Asked for Marlo a bunch of times, hope he does it!

A lot of characters off The Wire would need separate videos. Marlo and his crew would deff be the fun, easy pick, but Omar, Avon, Stringer, or even McNulty would be more interesting.

Good luck. Been asking for that one since the beginning.

How? The entire point of the film is that we don't know anything about Soze. The entire (marvelous) film is an ode to the Unreliable Narator trope.

@@jamesmaybrick2001 what I believe is that the only truth about that came out of verbal Kent's story to his interrogator was the story about Keyser family getting butchered. Verbal(aka Keyser Soze) had to lie to everyone to get to his target Arturo( the one who was gonna testify and identify who Keyser soze was). Yeah, it was a marvelous film.

except there is no one evil here wtf

Great idea !

That would awesome

That might be my next one. I'm really enjoying Survivor right now😁

@@yeezus4219 Survivor is fantastic as well. Happy reading!

RANT is brilliant. The idea of “Party Crashers” is pure hilarious genius.

Then you know how gay fight club is then.

And if progressives get their way, slavery child labor and execution of adulterous women or gays will be totally normal and accepted again.

@@rinzler9171 slavery still exists. USA is the largest slave state in the world. 13th amendment says all prisoners, legally, are slaves. USA has largest per capita prison population. Your hate for what you call progressives implies support for the slavers which people call "police," the slavery system ostensibly called "corrections" and pretending like this isn't an objective truth which cannot be debated without delusion.

@@ohmygoditisspider7953 Lmao, the cope

@@thefool1086 where?

@@ohmygoditisspider7953 russian propaganda

I used to comment Tony Soprano Walter White Vic Mackey on almost every video. He checked two if those boxes

@@todgordan9948 Vic Mackey doesn’t get enough credit.

One of my choices as well, but it would have to be one of the longer videos a la Tony Soprano.

@@JFDA5458 nothing wrong with that at all, lol. The largest distinction between Vic Mackey and Alonzo from Training Day, was that Mackey tried, and succeeded in helping a lot of innocent people. Which would make his analysis more interesting.

I still have yet to see a performance from The Sheild that didn't live to the hype

Facts

Seriously underrated.

No coincidence that Fincher directed both.

this, Tyler would have likely killed Marla if he had "won out" over Jack.

Yep. Thing is though, even in 1999, Tyler/Jack didn't really win. So what, he/they knocked some empty buildings down. Realistically, the debt record has backups upon backups. There's multiple Fed buildings in the US alone. Iron Mountain too. Jack's master plan was very naive

@@JamesRDavenport this is something that confused me as well. It makes for a really great visual, but blowing up those buildings doesn't realistically accomplish anything apart from... well, blowing them up. I don't know if we as an audience are supposed to see that and it's a bit of dramatic irony, or if we have to suspend our disbelief and say "well in the movie's universe, there's no such thing as backups."

Everyone miss interpreted the movie. The movie is a gay romance between the two male characters.

I considered him mentally insane and doing things he cant control.

@Yang Mojo that is fair

Imo he is both

@@Cameron-bz7ji why’s that?

@@marlom7882 he dosnt end up helping anyone, just torturing Jack/also Tyler idk what to call him, and I imagine even if no one was in those buildings the rubble killed 100s

WE all want a Johan liebert analysed..what a wonderful villain.. Makishima, meruem, Kuroro lucifer, light yagami, nagato, sensui are some good villains too

@@fideletamo4292 Sensui from Yu Yu Hakusho is my next suggestion. But I think Johan Liebert is too deliciously evil not to go for first.

I can think of no better suggestion, save for Char Aznable. Monster really was special.
