Both rule number one and rule number two is you’re not supposed to talk about Fight Club, but those rules were broken in a fascinating way Wednesday night at the Academy Museum in Los Angeles, alongside the world premiere screening of the new 4K restoration of the beloved film, prior to its upcoming one-night nationwide theatrical screenings and debuting on disc and digital. The screening included an insider’s look back at the highly contentious debate over how to market the decidedly subversive and provocative film, which found the filmmakers and cast frequently at odds with the studio releasing the movie, 20th Century Fox (now 20th Century Studios).
As a longtime fan of Fight Club, it was a thrill to see it on a big screen again, with the new 4K transfer looking terrific and highly detailed but not, thankfully, causing a movie that purposely exists within a world filled with so much grit and grime to look too clean and pristine. The sound presentation was also better than ever, capturing every brutal punch — and eventually explosions — along the way as the Narrator (Edward Norton) and Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) grow their following. The film’s examination of consumerism and angry and aimless disaffected men remains as compelling, satirical, and darkly witty as ever, and even though it’s been used in so many TV shows and films since, “Where is My Mind?” remains a perfect needle drop at the film’s conclusion.
The screening was presented by the Marketing and Public Relations Branch of the Academy, and thus the film’s marketing campaign was the focus of the pre-screening guest speaker presentation. Fight Club has an interesting place in cinema — and marketing — history, as in its initial 1999 release, it was highly divisive with critics and a box office bomb. However, it went on to became a sensation via the home video market, gaining an ever-growing cult following and a critical re-evaluation as the years went by.
As Academy Governor David Dinerstein noted in his intro at the screening, “When Fight Club was released in 1999 by 20th Century Fox, it posed a unique challenge… The film defied easy categorization. Was it a crime thriller, a dark comedy, a psychological drama? In truth, it was all of those and something else entirely. Marketing a film like Fight Club meant grappling with its tonal complexity, its subversive themes and, of course, its unforgettable twists – elements that made it compelling but also difficult to distill into a traditional marketing campaign.”
However, Dinerstein added, “In retrospect, the very elements that made Fight Club difficult to market — its audacity, its controversy, its refusal to conform — are precisely what cemented its lasting cultural impact. Fight Club is not just a movie, it has become a cultural event.”
The main speaker of the evening, Steve Siskind, was the head of Media at 20th Century Fox at the time Fight Club came out, which gave him plenty of insight into the struggle over how to market it. As he put it, “It’s not an exaggeration to say that Fight Club was one of the most contentious and fascinating marketing campaign processes I’ve ever witnessed.”

The Boy in the Iron Box is making his way to the screen.
Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan’s serialized novel is getting a feature film adaptation from writer-director David Prior (Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities, The Empty Man). Starring Rupert Friend, Kevin Durand, and Jaeden Martell, The Boy in the Iron Box is the pulse-pounding tale of a team of mercenaries who find themselves out of their depth on a remote summit. What they encounter there will give you nightmares.
After being optioned for an adaptation, things are moving quickly with Netflix’s adaptation of Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan’s Audible series The Boy in the Iron Box, which is scheduled to begin filming in October 2025. David Prior, who has worked with GDT before, will be writing and directing the project, it has now been revealed.
Netflix has officially confirmed that The Boy in the Iron Box will be making its way onto our screens via a new feature film and has added three cast members ahead of filming commencing next month in Canada.
Dinosaur gladiators, messianic cats, string-puppet rock stars, it can only be LOVE DEATH + ROBOTS.
The fourth volume, presented by Tim Miller (Deadpool, Terminator: Dark Fate) and David Fincher (Mindhunter, The Killer), sees Jennifer Yuh Nelson (Kung Fu Panda 2, Kill Team Kill) return as supervising director for ten startling shorts showcasing the series’ signature, award-winning style of bleeding-edge animation, horror, sci-fi and humor. Buckle up.
Among the 10 shorts included in Volume 4 is an episode directed by David Fincher. The second short he has directed after Bad Travelling (Vol. 3) is titled Can’t Stop, and it is a throwback to his early work as a music video director. “A unique take on the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ legendary 2003 performance at Slane Castle, Ireland,” it features the band members as marionette puppets, with animation by Blur Studio.
Other shorts in this Volume directed by returning directors include Spider Rose by Jennifer Yuh Nelson, set in the fantastic cyberpunk universe of Swarm (Vol. 3). Oscar-winning Patrick Osborne directs two episodes: The Other Large Thing, about a cat plotting world domination, and Smart Appliances, Stupid Owners, about household tech that revolts. Tim Miller directs another two episodes: Golgotha, “a rare live-action entry” about “dolphin Jesus”, and The Screaming of the Tyrannosaur, set in an outer space gladiatorial arena where combatants ride genetically modified dinosaurs. And Robert Valley directs 400 Boys, about a post-apocalyptic city where warring gangs follow a bushido-like code of honor.
Dinosaur gladiators, messianic cats, string-puppet rock stars, it can only be Love, Death & Robots.

The Social Network, directed by David Fincher, is the stunning tale of a new breed of cultural insurgent: a punk genius who sparked a revolution and changed the face of human interaction for a generation, and perhaps forever. Shot through with emotional brutality and unexpected humor, this superbly crafted film chronicles the formation of Facebook and the battles over ownership that followed upon the website’s unfathomable success. With a complex, incisive screenplay by Aaron Sorkin and a brilliant cast including Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake, The Social Network bears witness to the birth of an idea that rewove the fabric of society even as it unraveled the friendship of its creators. Nominated for 8 Academy Awards, including Best Picture (2010).
