Fight club ending question - Fit man and woman practicing kickboxing in gym

Does the building Tyler and Marla are in collapse at the end? Because I hear Tyler saying to the rest of the guys "I'll meet you downstairs"



Best Answer

No, the building Tyler was in was SUPPOSED to be blown up also, but the van that had the explosives was deactivated when Tyler - as the narrator - cut the cord (which then led to the fight scene in the parking garage before going upstairs)

What did the ending of Fight Club mean?

The ending to Fight Club includes one of the most memorable twists in cinema \u2013 when it is revealed that Brad Pitt's character Tyler Durden is in fact nothing more than the imaginary alter ego of the narrator (Edward Norton), and as such, all the acts carried out by Durden were actually his own actions.

What are the flashes at the end of Fight Club?

Flashes of Tyler Tyler Durden (Pitt) appears in "Fight Club" six times before he and Norton's character meet officially meet, flashing on the screen in several moments like here, when the narrator is mindlessly making copies at work.

Did Tyler survive at the end of Fight Club?

As most of Fight Club didn't happen at all as the Narrator had told it, the ending becomes even more ambiguous. However, taken at face value, it shows that the Narrator is finally free of Brad Pitt's Tyler Durden, but that he can't stop Project Mayhem's plan, and so he simply watches it unfold.

What is the real message of Fight Club?

Tyler's maxim, \u201cIt's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything,\u201d sounds tempting, but it's a line about freedom for the sake of self-indulgence rather than responsibility towards others.

Answer 2

(I would definitely checkout the helpful comment discussion that TylerShads commented with.) The answer is no the building they stand in and watch the destruction from isn't meant to be blown up and doesn't blow up. It does shake from the shock wave of the other buildings collapsing. The building they were standing in was chosen to view the perfect destruction of the other buildings. That's why the Project Mayhem members are up there with beers to celebrate and watch. Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) did not actively try to kill anyone. In fact Project Mayhem went out of the way to insure that no one would be killed in those buildings. If Tyler Durden (Brad or Edward) didn't have any sense of self preservation then there wouldn't have been any fight for control. Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) Honestly wanted to live and didn't kill himself ( Edward Norton) because of the chance that he might not live through it, among other reasons. Post Script: If I can find the image of the map of financial institutions that needed to be blown up I believe it would prove my answer. It's just really hard to find that screen shot.
