'Fight Club' looks a little different in China

One of the more well-known twist endings in the last 25 years of movies comes from David Fincher’s Fight Club. But if you’re seeing the film in China, it comes with a bonus shocker: an edited version cuts off the original ending and instead replaces it with a title card that explains how the revolution is foiled by authorities.

In the actual ending of Fight Club, the unnamed protagonist (Edward Norton) kills Tyler Durden — who is revealed to be a projection of the protagonist’s own dissociated identity — only to witness the success of his anarchic plan of blowing up the high-rises around them to wipe out everyone’s debts.
