The film/ novel Fight Club was brought up in another thread, some liking a great deal, others, not so much.
From Wikipedia:
Fight Club is a 1996 novel by Chuck Palahniuk
The book follows the experiences of an unnamed protagonist struggling with insomnia. Inspired by his doctor's exasperated remark that insomnia is not suffering, he finds relief by impersonating a seriously ill person in several support groups. An encounter with a fellow "tourist" Marla drives him back into insomnia until he meets a mysterious man named Tyler Durden and establishes an underground fighting club as radical psycotherapy.
With a little bit of Nietzche, and a little bit of Taoism, some have called Fight Club a philosophical treatise on the 80s and 90s. Others see the satirical indictment of consumerism that is slowly eating away at "manhood" as the central theme of the story, while others still, see it as nothing more than a form of "violent pornography", that will set some of societies more unstable people, on a course of self-destruction.
