I don't think I've ever read a comment on TFP I disagree with more. I've seen Fight Club lots of times, and it grabs me every time. There are so many levels to it. And, although you can make excuses for it, a lot of A Clockwork Orange is very corny.
I really like A Clockwork Orange, but I feel its message is less contemporary than Fight Club. Plus Fight Club addresses questions which are extremely close to my heart. And, to reiterate something stated above, it's easy to lose the thread of A Clockwork Orange beneath the patina of pretentious language.
