Whiny, "rebellious", angst ridden man-children going crazy in 3..........2...........1...........
I was at tonight's Chuck Palahniuk reading at the First Unitarian Church here in Portland, OR. During the Q & A, the author mentioned that various parties have met and are discussing the prospect of a BIG-BUDGET, BROADWAY MUSICAL BASED ON FIGHT CLUB. Palahniuk has given it his stamp of approval and David Fincher is somehow involved. He quoted a gleeful Fincher as saying, "Can you imagine people in New Jersey paying $120 to drive to the city and watch a musical about anarchy?"
It sounds like this guy doesn't really give a fuck about any of the stuff he's created. Cha-ching!
On the subject of the Fight Club video game: "I don't own video games or watch tv. I don't know much about it. It's so easy to sign something and have them cut you a check."

I could see a play, loosely based on Fight Club being pretty good. Put the fighting at a minimum, and focus on the 2 personalities. But a musical? That is crazy talk!
 
Here is Brad Pitt's character.
