Yeah, I thought that the beating he got was a bit harsh aswell ! And it DID hurt to look at him, I'm sure you can't get THAT managled by a fist fight..or can you ? I, having never been in one or seen a real one have no idea at all !

If you were hit that hard for that long, you certainly could get that mangled. I remember seeing an interview when he was filming it. Jared said he was playing a character that was undergoing a sort of metamorphosis (ha!), and that he was pretty much irrecognizable by the end. How right he was.

You know, with your <font color=red>hair</font color=red> like that? It hurts to look at you.

Okay, so I finally saw Fight Club yesterday after wanting to see it for some time. Very strange movie...I'm still trying to get a grasp on how I feel about it. The director is obviously very talented and the acting was great, but it didn't grab me like I thought it would.

In any event, Jared plays such a little weirdo!! And the platinum-blonde hair and eyebrows were...interesting, to say the least! :lol:

Maybe it was the hype of movie that got to you. I often find when expectations have been built up so much for a film, then I am disappointed with what I end up seeing. I have also heard from others who have read the book that the movie is based on that they preferred the book to the film.

David Fincher is a great director, hes got a style all his own. and you cant beat Brad and Ed, very fine actors. i felt the same way about this movie after seeing it in the theatre, didnt grab me at all. but i bought it on dvd, watched a a bunch of times, and now i like it. the ending i dont much care for though. also wish Jared had a bigger part. Fincher also directed Panic Room, wich stars Jared.

Jared Leto in Fight Club

Post by Cami A. » Aug 9th 2008, 12:07 am

I'm not a big Leto fan, but I was watching one of my favorite movies--Fight Club--and he's listed in the opening credits! According to IMDb he played a character named "Angel Face."
If you haven't seen Fight Club, it's a must-see flick! Just give it a chance for Jared Leto's sake, even though you should see it for BRAD PITT, EDWARD NORTON, AND HELENA BOHMAN CARTER.

Here's a clip from YouTube with Jared Leto as "Angel Face" . He's the one with bleached hair and eyebrows.
WARNING: THIS IS AN EXTREMELY VIOLENT CLIP IN WHICH JARED LETO'S FACE GETS BEATEN BEYOND RECOGNITION. DO NOT WATCH IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THAT!

There's already a discussion for Fight Club here.

I remember seeing this film when it first opened, and while watching the opening credits as the camera hurtles through Norton's head, seeing Jared's name on screen; my girlfriend and I had to suppress a squeal. I've never been able to get past the pineapple look though (the bleached hair and eyebrows).

haha. That's a good way to describe it. Pinneapple... :lol:
Speaking of Pinneapple, have you seen the new movie Pinneapple Express yet?
Hilarious stuff, and James Franco is much cuter than Jared Leto anyday.

Not yet; I can take or leave James Franco (he had some great moments in F&G, I love "Noshing & Moshing" & his last scenes in the finale), but I'm all about Seth Rogen. I've had a crush on Seth since Freaks & Geeks aired.

Then you should definitely see Pineapple Express! I watched an interview with Seth and James and then mentioned briefly Freaks & Geeks. I've heard of it, but never watched it. It's a TV show, no? What's the major concept behind it?
