| Quote: | | In the film Fight Club, the real name of the protagonist (Ed Norton’s character) is never revealed. Many believe the reason behind this anonymity is to give "Jack" more of an everyman quality. Do not be deceived. "Jack" is really Calvin from the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. It’s true. Norton portrays the grown-up version of Calvin, while Brad Pitt plays his imaginary pal, Hobbes, reincarnated as Tyler Durden. |

Definitely one of my top 5 favorite movies. While yes, the character has no name, Jack was the name of the guy from the books. Skimming through, nowhere is this quoted from Chuck Palahniuk so I will take this as a theory, not fact. Interesting idea though. _________________ Fake it till you make it.
