You're so right! A lot of actors wouldn't have had the sharpness of their wit, and the inherent darkness the way they brought it.

Brad Pitt is brilliant at acting chaotic characters and characters who function by a totally different set of rules from everybody else and therefore seem like an unknown quantity. A key part of this making them seem terribly confident in their own choas. Outside of Fight Club, classic examples of this talent are in Burn After Reading, Meet Joe Black, Snatch, Kalifornia and 12 Monkeys. That ability of his is what makes Tyler Durden.

Yeah. And then people claim he's not much of an actor. Blindness. A critic recently talked about how the Coen brothers managed to make Pitt come across weird in Burn After Reading, as if this was an accomplishment on their part, and I'm like "Have you not seen all the other performances in which he's done weird and or wild perfectly?" Johnny Suede, Meet Joe Black, 12 Monkeys, Kalifornia, Snatch, Fight Club. He's a master of weird. Pitt's a really unique actor with a talent for doing stuff most actors can't manage, and a lot of people refuse to see it -they're still stuck on the idea that he's just this pretty boy. He should have gotten an oscar for Fight Club, but the film was totally ignored by the oscars. Which is a classic example of how the oscars have nothing to do with what's quality.

I think Brad Pitt is mostly being burned for his matinee good looks.

Yeah. He has managed to be successful regardless of his pretty face.

Love this movie. It was ingenious. I especially loved Ed Norton in this! He was awesome.
