So many of the "sins" called out were actually fun questions you could ask yourself after watching the movie about the Narrator's dissociation.

Fincher agreed to change the line with something else, as long as she agreed that whatever they came up with, it couldn't be changed.

The movie kind of suggests that Tyler was already manifesting himself before Marla ever came into the picture. In fact it suggests this in the doctors office in which the doctor says he should go to the support group meeting which is why he met Marla. I'll go a step further and say that the movie should have been sinned for giving away it's big reveal before ever actually getting into the movie. By that I mean they noticeably show someone who is obviously Tyler blur in and out of the room like a glitched hologram sequence. In several scenes even. I love this movie but I also knew that Tyler wasn't real from the first reveal of Tyler for that exact reason.

[@daks8888]

[@levikay1745]

That's not true though. He was in the doctors office before the movie ever shows him having a connection to Marla because of his insomnia. The doctors office visit of which is why he started to go the support groups and therefore met Marla. Secondly they show Tyler in the doctors office scene suggesting he was having issues which were leading to the creation of Tyler already well before he met Marla. He is able to sleep for a brief period of time because of faking at the support group but we're suggesting here that the support groups were a permanent solution to his insomnia and lack of self respect, which seems ridiculous. Honestly all anybody ever had to do was say something to the guy and it probably would have had the same result because that's essentially all Marla did because her actions reflected his own and he didn't like it.

[@DanteYewToob]

Right off the bat, that first "sin" is absolutely wrong. Marla is a major part of "Jack"s break with reality. He was a broken man barely clinging together and he had a coping mechanism, that she took from him. She shook part of his foundation and rocked the idea of who he thought he was leading to his split. She isn't solely responsible, but she plays a major part in adding the final straw to the camels back. Her interference and stubbornness pushed him that last inch too far. That's pretty clear if you actually watch the film, and it's very clear in the book. (Yeah the books don't matter... except they do. No book... No movie. Period.)

[@therealjchiavetta]

Isn't she also ultimately responsible for his two selves merging?

[@jakbos2377]

[@DanteYewToob]

@Anjali Has nothing to do with her being a woman. Don't put words in my mouth, and don't assume you know know my meaning. Women can be assholes just the same as men. A selfish person, is a selfish person. Skin color, gender, religion, or wealth all have nothing to do with it. Stop trying to shoehorn your specific insecurities into something that had absolutely NOTHING to do with gender. The entire point of Fight Club is a look at how shitty people avoid their problems until they become big problems. You obviously didn't understand my comment because my implication was that Marla was important to the story. Maybe not for glamorous princess reasons like you might like, but she's important to the story being told. If you look at a woman faking _testicular_ cancer to make herself feel better by making fun of the victims and don't think she's a shitty person.. I honestly think you have issues. She's a thief, a drug addict, a liar and manipulative beyond belief. She's a severely damaged and selfish person and her gender has absolutely nothing to do with any of it. Go polish your feminism badge somewhere else, because injecting your own issues into a conversation unprompted is a very Marla Singer thing to do... not a good look.

[@oddity3927]

I feel like you shouldn’t sin things easily explained by critical thinking. Such as when he stole a car as Tyler, torched his apartment, drove back to the airport to wait for his luggage as himself, and then returned in a cab to find his place on fire. I enjoy your videos but this one is weak.

[@schwa9895]

I agree, I love these videos but it seems that most of the sins were based on not knowing about extreme multiple personality disorder works. In many cases, the person does just what Jack/Tyler did in regards to 'being around" each other. Many of the scenes together happened at close but different times. In some rare cases, the different personality did heal or have injuries appear.

[@tdcfc]

I mean, plus the fact that everything about the narrator's point of view is unreliable and should be questioned (headphones part for example).

[@ToomanyFrancis]

I generally find these videos kinda funny, but it's pretty clear they turned their brains off completely for this one. From the very beginning they don't realize why the narrator blames Marla, despite the fact that it's what the entire movie is about. Marla going to support groups caused his insomnia to return, which caused him to develop Dissociative Personality Disorder in the form of Tyler Durden, which is what inevitably caused him to shoot himself in the face.

I think the idea with Tyler being in different places with the narrator probably is something like a memory gap.

I may be wrong, but I wonder if that’s how split personalities feel to some!
