I'm showing Fight Club in postmodern political film later this semester. I downloaded the script - wow! lots of great lines. I'd have to say this competes with Big Lebowski, only not as funny. Having a friend like Tyler would really come in handy, especially considering some of the a-holes I have had to deal with in academia.
