Fight Club released 20 years ago today Options

[dangum]

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.

I thought Ed's performance was fantastic! Norton, I mean. Kowalczyk was okay.

I was very much aware that Ed was in the movie before it came out, but at that time I was running not just the discography but also a fan page called Good Pain Lies On The Riverside, so I kinda had to be on the up-and-up with Live news

When was the last time they played Good Pain? For a song that made it onto three of their studio releases, it sure doesn't get a lot of airtime.

that's cause Ed has to be a savage in that song, I imagine it died in the mid 90's. Probably on March 12, 1995

I saw that on setlist.fm too, I just didn't believe it. I think they could do it, but you're right, he'd have to sing it differently now.

This is a Fight Club thread, so I guess I'm gonna defer back to the topic now.
