Pretty much even, but fight club comes through thanks to the timely appearance of Meatloaf...
on 7/30/2009
Fight Club is over rated.
on 8/4/2009
Two very, very different movies. But while I wouldn't rate Fight Club above Empire Strikes Back, for me, it takes out the original Star Wars, no problem.
on 9/11/2009
I Love Fight Club, but I have to go with Star Wars on Principle
on 10/4/2009
I gotta say, I do really appreciate Fight Club, but it isn't something I'd really want to watch over and over and over. It's got an interesting twist, and good performances, but I've probably watched Star Wars more than any other movie. Star Wars holds up.
on 10/14/2009
I don't think there's a contest. Star Wars has been with me through the good, the bad, the worse, and Jar Jar Binks. George Lucas, I forgive you.
on 10/21/2009
Fight Club is overrated?! You don't think Star Wars counts as the most overrated movie of ALL TIME?
on 10/23/2009
I agree with anyone that says Star Wars is the most overrated movie EVER. It's just not that good, its not that creative (Kurosawa knock-off), and its predictable. Ooooh, its in Space! Big whoop! Fight Club is an excellent movie, and Star Wars isn't even in the same league.
on 11/17/2009
Before you vote for Fight Club over Star Wars, please keep in mind Star Wars is actually more that Kurusawa in space. Consider the revolutionary effects, the brilliant score by John Williams, the timeless production design, arguably the most memorable villain in film history, Alec Guiness! and on and on. May the force be with your vote.
on 11/18/2009
only a self-satisfied cynic who buys into the hypocrital message that fight club tries to sell would vote for it over star wars.
on 11/21/2009
Hands down Star Wars. In the end you have a movie that broke the mold and essentially paved the way for hundreds upon hundreds of other films, and then a glorified boys film where the only interesting thing to see is Brad Pitt beating someone up (and as a girl, that is a wonderfully hot thing to see). All in all, Star wars gets my vote.
on 12/10/2009
I agree wholeheartedly with the people saying that it is Star Wars, not Fight Club, that is the overrated one in this match-up. I cannot think of a film with a bigger gap between its hype and its actual quality. Hate to even use the term quality in a sentence about Star Wars, because it is not a quality film. Darth Vader is the only thing in that film worth being referred to as quality.
on 1/4/2010
I'm never going to say that Star Wars was not an influential film. But that is more because of the technologies it introduced, rather than any quality in the story. I honestly believe that, if Star Wars were to come out now, it would get the same kind of criticisms as Avatar is currently weathering, but that doesn't mean that either film won't have had a major influence on moviemaking. God bless Star Wars (before Lucas got stupid with it), but in terms of the quality of story told, I prefer Fight Club. (As a side note: Isn't it interesting how the two best Star Wars films were NOT directed or solely written by George Lucas...?)
on 3/3/2010
Fight Club was good, but it can't beat Star Wars. No way.
on 5/11/2010
Masturbation may very well be self-improvement but c'mon now we were creaming to Star Wars long before we knew how to jack-off.
on 8/15/2010
Fight Club is absolutely overrated, with one of the stupidest twists in movie history. Thankfully, Star Wars lacks Jack's Retarded Plot Twist. Plus it has Vader.
on 9/13/2010
what the .... nostalgia wins this one. for now.
on 11/12/2010
They're both great in their own ways, but this is one of those match-ups where I vote for entertainment factor -- and that's Fight Club, even with the predictable twist.
on 11/13/2010
Star Wars wins. Fight Club, stop trying so hard.
on 3/11/2011
Fight Club it is
Fight Club is awesome, but the original Star Wars is epic.
on 8/6/2011
Star Wars will always be the greater classic. Fight Club, may the force be with you.
on 2/13/2012
Star Wars ftw.
on 2/16/2012
Star Wars of course. I love both and they are in my top 10 but Star Wars is higher and for good reasons.
on 3/10/2012
Star Wars.
on 3/21/2012
Star Wars owns here. Sci Fi epic-ness.
on 2/1/2013
Star Wars cruises through another challenger. But no slacker.
on 2/2/2013
Sorry Fight Club, but you lose this one.
on 2/9/2013
Oh Tyler! You went from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo-wkv8gW6k to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGs4CjeJiJQ
on 2/10/2013
^ Yeah, that was quite ironic. Anyway, Star Wars.
on 2/11/2013
^ Even without that awkward Chanel ad, this scene from Fight Club is a masterclass in irony. You have a hunky-looking Brad Pitt wearing a rather expensive jacket delivering this monologue on how the weight of your wallet doesn't matter. Notice how the scene is shot and even feels like a commercial. Tyler is practically ADVERTISING his anti-consumerism thesis to the audience! Dude just broke the fourth wall. I'm serious when I say Fight Club is probably more depressing than Se7en 'cause it just laughs at you all the way through.
on 4/14/2013
Very tough but i would say star wars.
on 6/19/2013
Fight Club is in my top 2. So my choice is clear.
on 8/24/2013
Star Wars. Fight Club is not that amazing.
Star Wars by SMASH.
on 8/26/2013
Star Wars no question.
on 8/27/2013
Star Wars. Fight Club is amazing, but Star Wars is what it is.
on 12/28/2013
Star Wars wins. Fight Club is somewhat overrated, I think it's really good but it's not one of the best.
I'll think I could chose Star Wars it's more tecting shotters it's ford that
Star Wars will win any day of the week. Fight Club is a very overrated film, and though I respect it in some ways it will never,ever come close to the greatness and pure magic of Star Wars.
on 2/4/2014
I rewatched both and I preferred Fight Club
Star Wars is one of the great fantasy films ever made, and the trilogy is among the best franchises of all-time. Fight Club is a remarkable film that is unlike most films you have ever seen, and the ride you are taken on is truly unique. Ed Norton Helena Bonham Carter and Brad Pitt are phenomenal, and the direction by David Fincher is spectacular. I still pick Star Wars, but this is a close one.
on 2/10/2014
Fight Club wins for the benefit of not being surpassed in quality by a sequel.
on 2/11/2015
Star Wars, nostalgia in action 2
on 3/21/2015
Two films that are in my top 10 which I actually refuse to compare. It's that damn close.
on 8/5/2015
fight club is way more overrated than star wars
on 8/14/2015
Fight club beats every star wars movie
on 12/8/2015
A rewatch of Fight Club may give it the win on this one, but I really like things about Star Wars right now.
on 2/8/2016
Fight Club is one great film, but I've gotta say Star Wars!
on 2/9/2016
Not much of a contest. Fight Club isn't THAT good. Star Wars, yep, it is.
on 5/23/2019
Going with Star Wars.
on 7/31/2019
Star Wars is the better experience.
on 11/4/2019
Fight Club is kind overrated beyond, on the other hand Star Wars barely wins very easy here.
Fight Club is kinda of overrated beyond, on the other hand Star Wars barely wins very easy here.

on 1/21/2020
Fight club is far too overrated for classic sci-fi films which the answer is Star Wars.
on 5/14/2020
I think this could go either way depending on what day you ask me. Tough one
on 9/16/2020
Star Wars is somewhat overrated, the academy got it right in the best movie of 1977. Fight Club however, it is not. Therefore, FC wins here.
on 12/27/2023
This is about as good as it gets in my opinion. I don't consider either overrated, both masterpieces with endless rewatch value. I'm just coming down on the side of Fight Club because it has the better ending. Both top 5 minimum though.
