Putting Out of Sight ahead of Fight Club means you're on your own, pal!
Gotta respect your unwavering love for Fight Club. I feel like it has taken backlash in recent years for widespread appeal more than anything. It's akin to folks dismissing Tool because their fans like to pretend the music is deeper than it really is.

Still, one of my fav. movies of all time.
Yeah, it's amazing how many people loved it when it first came out and then as years went by and it gained popularity a lot of those same people started walking back their love for it.

Goes to show what some people care about.

I got nothing against Fight Club at all, I just think Out of Sight is the better film
Poppycock!

Nothing worse than a rushed tourney. In the mean time you could watch your first ever 60's movie.

It is. Every team has something I love, but his is the belle of the ball so far. Don't fuck it up, Burt!

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
