Facebook Connect puts you in Fight Club

It’s been ten years since Fight Club, incredible huh? Not that you’d know it from the depressingly youthful Brad Pitt (and he even has a small army of children to look after – no fair!) or how cool and on-trend his Tyler Durden still is (check out our guide to stealing his style at Related Content, right), but ten years it truly is and to celebrate the David Fincher drama is making it’s Blu-Ray debut (get it here in the UK and here in the US). And in case you needed reminding of just how cool it is to hang with Brad and co-star Ed Norton, check out the movie’s awesome website that uses Facebook Connect to put you in the thick of the fight.

It’s all very easily done, simply confirm that you want the site to connect to Facebook and the fun begins. Replicating the movie’s theme of subliminal messaging, it flashes up a load of images and footage from the film interspersed with personal information sourced from your Facebook page. Expect pictures from your photo albums, your name fed into quotes personally addressing you and details from your profile, such as your job, given a film twist.

It’s almost hallucinatory and as irreverent, provocative and just plain cool as the film it’s based on. Certain to be the number one distraction for lads everywhere, check out what your life looks like with the Tyler Durden treatment at the website here. Less bloody and bruising than the real fight club, but a happy compromise for those of us that prefer not to wear our face down our shirts.

UPDATE: Get Tyler’s iconic Oliver Peoples sunglasses here.
