So Tyler and Narrator are the same person.
When Narrator shoots hisself through head and lives, how come Tyler dies?
Shouldn't they both die?
What is the real role of Marla Singer?

I would blame the bullet going through Ed Norton's brain for the death of Tyler.
Have you ever read "The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat"?

No, I haven't. What about that bullet? Why does Norton live?

Because he assumed he would die when he shot himself and thought he had when he pulled the trigger and therefore tyler did too but norton didnt die because he was real. tyler did because nortons brain thought he had.

The book I mentioned is about a man with a brain injury that gives him a warped sense of reality. Fascinating case study about a real person. Nifty read.
There is a classic case about a man who had a railroad spike fired through his head in an explosion while building the railroads across the US. He lived, surprisingly. The only difference, is that it passed through the part of the brain that is responsible for social skills and interactions. He became belligerent and vulgar. The total polar opposite of his previous personality.
Somewhere I have an essay I wrote while bored about how all "sentient" human thought is a crock of shit cuz' it's all chemical.

well marla is the key to creating tyler.
without marla, "jack" would have kept going to the support groups, instead of having to find something else to help him sleep at night.
Continuing on from what necromancer said, jack shot himself through his cheek, which is why he lived.
-------------- What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Thanks you guys!
That helps somewhat.
FightClub was the first DVD I ever watched and I am blown away!
I didn't know it is one of the best quality DVDs ever made though, and when I saw another movie I was underwhelmed a little.
Yes, I looked for Marla avatars but I didn't like any of them.

fight club... so much hegel and marx.
anyway, key things... it's the testicular cancer group that finally get's jack to be able to sleep at night. The scene where he thinks of his "power animal" and he sees marla.
Tyler is a part of Jack, and you get him finally coming to grips with that in the end when he "takes" the gun from Tyler.
