The face he did when Narrator said "we have the same briefcase" always gets me it's funnier everytime i see.

[DragonFish-zj]

Norton should have got an oscar nom for this scene alone when he says to the woman "a major one". Perfect delivery.

[vkx]

I love at @1:02 where we see Tyler emerging out of Norton as a way of us being introduced to his new personality. Brilliantly done

[Bilbologna]

Exact same brief case and calls him his friend the moment he meets him. The signs were there from the very beginning, and it’s just the perfect amount of subtlety.

[LukeKetchum]

Fun Fact: Explosive material can be made using simple household items but the filmmakers left out a few crucial ingredients so no one could actually try this.

[juice]

this is when Tyler was created in his mind.
notice he is still in the same suit, same plane, and Tyler is sitting where the lady was.

[fingolfin]

I like how the frame and the camera work are set up so that Tyler literally splits from Edward Norton's character.

[svenskanorsk]

3:22 I always think of this line when I get up after the drink service

[catchavermin]

You see that space between the seats. Looks like a lot of space. Like you can sit comfortably.

[Musicissmydrug]

3:28 the plane didn’t even land. Where did Tyler wander off too

What I love about Tyler as a character is that at the start of the Narrator’s and Tyler’s relationship, Tyler is simply something created by the Narrator’s mind to help him become what he wants to be and do what he wants to do. However, as the Narrator continues to progress their relationship by reaching out to him through the telephone, coming to live with Tyler, starting Fight Club, and in the end becoming great friends with him, Tyler’s role as a character changes as the Narrator grows to want more and more. What I’m saying is, at the end of the day, Tyler is simply a reflection of what the Narrator wants, and as Tyler, the Narrator can get what we wants. At the start of the movie, Tyler was just this cool guy with interesting ideas and a great personality. However, by the end of the movie Tyler is a terrorist because he’s reflecting that the Narrator wants to break down and rebuild society from the ground up. Everything Tyler puts the Narrator through after a certain point is done to break him down to ensure he reaches his goal. He’s basically saying, “You want to rebuild society? Then abandon your humanity and embrace that sacrifices have to be made.” Tyler only becomes a problem for the Narrator because Tyler wants Marla, Marla wants the Narrator, and the Narrator wants nothing to do with Marla. When Marla reminds the Narrator of his humanity and the Narrator realizes that Tyler is simply a part of himself, Tyler continues doing his job and ensuring the plan goes smoothly. However, this is at the cost of hurting the Narrator and Marla. By the end of the movie when the Narrator finally embraces that Tyler is just a part of himself and he steels his resolve to kill Tyler, Tyler’s mission has been completed. Tyler finally made the Narrator achieve and become what he wanted. Everything Tyler put the Narrator through was just a part of his mission to make the Narrator become what he wanted and achieve what he wants, it was all planned, and Tyler succeeded. By the start and the end of the movie, Tyler’s purpose comes full circle. Tyler truly was the Narrator’s best friend, through and through.

Holy crap I just realized, when you look into Tyler Durden’s glasses there is NO reflection. Dead giveaway that he didn’t exist.

[Nalfheim]

I remember reading once a theory that said that this Tyler is actually a real guy and the narrator then gave his alter ego (imaginary Tyler) his image, if you pay attention this Tyler has very similar clothes (same color) to the ones he wears later at the bar but they are not the same clothes, also this Tyler steals a red car wich the other Tyler later doesn't have and the narrator questions him on it, of course there's also the exact same briefcase and the soap so...

[palmerlp]

“How’s that working out for you?”
“What?”
“Being clever?”
Pretty much the most brutal takedown ever perpetrated upon Gen X by one of our own.

[tarkesen]

Imagine a schizophreniac dude talking to himself about soaps, accidents and briefcases in front of you and your family who are just aimed to have a calm holiday to relax some

[skrawhat_shanks]

Watched this movie yesterday and got offered the window seat with these instructions🙏🏾💯

[TheKickboxingCommunity]

I love Edward Nortons hopeful face when he sees an airplane that is about to collide with them

[randomguy]

Incredible how this scene looks like it was made 15 years later goes to show how good technology was back then and how bad the majority of other movies from that time aside from Saving Private Ryan 1998 Heat 1995 and The Insider 1999 looked slow paced dated sloppy and have strange stunts

[juancavalcanti]

I love how the first single serving friend is so different from tyler, she only does question which she pretends she's interested only to have a conversation, like most of us

[scottericksonwasted]

those seats look a lot more comfortable
