Hmm. I never quite understood the Fight Club or Usual Suspects cults. I like both movies, but they only work for me as two shot twist ending movies. Once for the twist, and once to pick out the clues once you know the twist. I think in Fight Club in particular you have to be able to connect to the main idea of the fight club philosophy on some level, not embrace or advocate it, but connect to it somehow, and I just can't. Good movies, both, but they don't work for me beyond that.
The attraction of The Big Lebowski will forever remain a mystery to me. Didn't laugh once, found the characters all unappealing without being amusing.
I "get" a lot of guy movies, like The Godfather, but I think I'm lacking some essential quality needed to fully appreciate these.
