Fight Club and Narnia

Not new, this article, but still an interesting read:

Fight Club vs Calvin & Hobbes by Galvin P. Chow

Other interesting material for those interested in the same movie:

Fight Club, Patriarchy, and the Politics of Masculine Violence by Henry A. Giroux

Fight Club - A Sociological Analysis

I have a standard policy of reading books before watching their big screen adaptations, so I hastily downloaded and started reading the Chronicles of Narnia series. Hurray for BitTorrents, because had I actually purchased the seven series books from, say, Liberty books, it would have set me back a pretty penny. Now that I'm exactly halfway through the series (4th book out of seven), I can see why it's a classic. String Christian overtones? Mild, yeah, but I didn't even notice when I first read the book many years ago and after the first book, I only noticed because I was looking for them.

Edit: Download the 7 e-book Chronicles of Narnia collection (1.69 Mb hosted by Megaupload)
