Fight Club is the easy answer. I like Choke and Survivor better though.

I agree with this completely. I'd do Choke first, then Survivor.

Once you start, you won't want to stop.

And here I thought it was going to be a documentary about the cubs.

What a disappointment.

They are all pretty vulgar and out there.

that story wouldn't be so freaky if that thing didn't happen from time to time in real life.

Omaha is reeling from that one.

well, I ripped through Choke and have Fight Club up next.

Looking into the movie more it's going to be interesting to see what happens with it. The director is a first time director and first time screen writer who's been a bit actor his whole career (he was just in Iron Man). Quite the different situation than when Fight Club was lucky enough to fall into Fincher's capable hands.

That worries me as well, though I think the story is so great that even Michael Bay couldn't mess it up.

Reviews for it, from people who saw it at Sundance and other film festivals, are all over the map.
