20 years ago today, Fight Club was released in the US. Apart from being a great movie, it also features a cameo performance by Ed Kowalczyk as a waiter.

Ed only has a couple of lines. If you haven't seen it, here's the scene.

What are your thoughts on Ed's performance?
Did you first watch the movie at the cinema or did you discover it on DVD?
Were you aware that Ed was in the movie or was it a complete surprise when he popped up?

I was listening to the commentary track on the Blu-ray and David Fincher said that Ed was a big fan of the book and he wanted to be in the movie. David says he was 'incredibly flattered' and Ed was available for a couple of days during the tour to shoot the diner scene. Due to some filming issues they needed to re-shoot the scene so Ed has to come back at a later date.
