Just out of curiosity, what made you choose the avatar you have now?
I posted a news story on here about some monkeys in Wales, their heater had broke over Christmas and they were given blankets to keep themselves warm. They looked cute clutching their blankets which I was gonna have as my avatar, at the time I also wanted a name change so thought I'd wait for the name change and then change my avatar, cos it kind of fits with the monkeytennis thing.

Ya, it's a brilliant film on so many levels. And I consider it Fincher's best from a technical standpoint.

I'd say it's his best on all fronts.

Definitely a great film, same with Zodiac and Gone Girl. Fight Club really spoke to my downer teenage self when I saw it so it'll always have a special place in my heart.

Fight club is the reason i think Edward Norton is a great actor.

His narration and inner monologue is the best part of FC for me.

Se7en is alright but it all comes down to the head in the box the rest of the film is not that great imo. The Cell or Taking lives are way better.

Have you seen Primal Fear? He was nominated for an Oscar for that. He's unbelievable in it. (it's was his first film too)

i know, i for one bought his innocent boy act too.

i didn't know that was his first film though, that's pretty amazing to hear considering his acting was superb in it.
