Line 105:
* [[Masquerade]]: If you're not allowed to talk about Fight Club, you might never know who is in on it and who isn't. This is especially true for the book, in which the narrator mentions that nobody knows whether a prank pulled in public was pulled by Project Mayhem or not because the first rule is you do not ask questions. This is lampshaded in both the book and movie when {{spoiler|police officers the narrator is counting on to save him from castration appear to be part of Project Mayhem.}}
* [[Male Gaze]]: in regards to the Ho Yay.
* [[Marshmallow Hell]]: {{media
* [[Meaningful Echo]]: A lot of them, too many to cite. Possibly as much as ten percent of the script.
* [[Medium Awareness]]: ''Lots'' of deliberate film artifacts, including "cigarette burns" and sprocket holes. And, of course, a [[Brick Joke|nice fat cock]].
Line 147:
{{quote| "Fucker's setting up franchises."}}
* [[Sensei for Scoundrels]]: The trope was originally titled [[The Tyler Durden]], which still exists as a redirect.
* [[Shirtless Scene]]: The sixth rule of Fight Club says "no shirts, no shoes". Bob averts this rule without comment. {{media
* [[Shoo Out the Clowns]]: Bob, the testicular cancer survivor. Look, our comical friend Bob joins Fight Club, and he's awesome! Look, {{spoiler|Bob gets shot in the head! The remainder of the film is much more somber}}.
* [[The Snark Knight]]: The narrator and Tyler, Tyler moreso, since he is {{spoiler|literally the narrator's uninhibited id.}}
