Fight Club

Released two years before September 11, Fight Club (1999) features thematic and visual parallels that viewers often retroactively compare to the tragedy. In the film's climax, Tyler Durden's anti-capitalist group executes "Project Mayhem," orchestrating the demolition of financial skyscrapers to erase debt records. The iconic shots of collapsing high-rises mirror the later real-world images of the World Trade Center, while the dialogue even includes phrases like "Ground Zero".
