In the millennium year 2000, "Fight Club" became a genuine mass phenomenon. The film adaptation of the debut novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk, who also wrote the screenplay, turned into a blockbuster. Director David Fincher has since become one of Hollywood's most important filmmakers, and author Chuck Palahniuk transformed into the enfant terrible of the American literary scene, regularly topping bestseller lists. The rest was taken care of by Brad Pitt's iconic portrayal of Tyler Durden, where nihilistic cultural pessimism and anarchistic struggles for liberation horrifically united against the dictatorship of deceitful middle-class obedience. "Fight Club" was a scathing critique of capitalism disguised as mainstream cinema, and its cult status endures to this day. What might have become of Tyler Durden 15 years later, whose grim predictions for the future have been so devastatingly outdone by the present?.
