\u201cI want brain parasites.\u201d We watched Fight Club (1999) with our friend Drew Stanley and we want you to hit us as hard as you can.\xa0 It\u2019s our TENTH movie from 1999 which just proves it really was the best movie year ever.\xa0 Not to worry - we don\u2019t go too hard on the forensic analysis of this often misunderstood movie.\xa0 We do however touch on themes of toxic masculinity, hyper violence and the acid-goth-rave wardrobe of Brad Pitt and Helena Bonham Carter.\xa0 Director David Fincher\u2019s ahead of their time visuals were immediately ripped off, firmly\xa0 placing the visual style of the movie into pop culture history. Ok we get it - how could a movie about a group of shirtless men meeting in a dark basement to pound the living hell out each other possibly have gay undertones?\xa0 Oh wait.
