Knight posted:

Palahniuk comes across as resentful of Fight Club fans and the attention it still gets while no one wants to adapt his other works, so it's likely Fight Club 2 was made out of spite.

Which explains the ending of the 2 where he just says, "see, you people won't be happy with any ending I give you so my self - insert character will smugly explain why :smuggo:"

The third one isn't much better. The narrator and Tyler team up to figure out why there is a disease spreading around through a sex pyramid scheme. They never explain who is behind it, ever. There's also an alternate dimension involved where captives are either enslaved or live in nirvana. The difference is never really explained. Neither is why Hitler and Napoleon and other historical figures are also captives. The narrator also gets plastic surgery to look more like Tyler for reasons. The cancer lady from the first book is also an action star who participates in an orgy, also for reasons.

Eh, early Palahniuk is OK. Choke and Invisible Monsters still hold up. This is not early Paluhniuk.

I had same argument after watching birth of a nation, and told my friend about it.
When I told him about the scene where a euro kid scares too black kids by dressing up as a ghost, he parodied the batman line with: A ghost I will become.

That line makes me giggle.
