Really liked the part when Jim explains that Chuck Palahniuk started a book as a monologue that an actor would deliver about going to Fight Club. It's always interesting to know what is the first spark for a story or a screenplay and I think this is a great one - a monologue from a protagonist.
Just gonna say here, I absolutely love how Tyler glitches into view before we meet him for just a millisecond. I thought it was a glitch at first, but it's an amazing detail. I love this movie.
Just found your channel and loving it so far. Binged like 2 hours. If possible, you should try to make "How I wrote Taxi Driver" Keep up with the great videos man!
Man... I really hope that you and your team realize - that the (constant & consistent) efforts you all make; to provide quality content (like this upload, amongst various others) for artists such as myself, honestly means a great deal & imo will forever hold value for our craft development, that exceeds far beyond today! We have so much power with our abilities as writers, directors, illustrators, etc. Throughout my life, I've found it so important and imperative, to remain diligent when working towards the improvements during individual character dialogue or their interactions, taking place. Whether I'm developing new material, or gradually building upon projects created throughout the years, everything counts. Thank you, to everyone involved at the BTC offices (along with my fellow subscribers, who leave comments) it all helps! I'm starting this video over, immediately after I post this comment, for further knowledge and understanding. God bless everyone who reads this. I pray nothing but growth, strength and resilience during these times! Write right now everyone, use your experiences for growth; because the world needs us to elevate and give hope - in both words and actions. See you all on the next vid ;- ) Take care! 🙏🏾
I have a couple of things. 1. I have these 45min-1hr interviews with professional screenwriters. ( a part of the membership) 2. I have 15-20 minute commentary tracks for each youtube video I upload where I highlight the main points of the video, share my experiences, as well as give practical exercises based on the insight from the writers. (a part of the membership) 3. I am currently working on launching a screenwriting podcast with co-hosts which may come out in the coming months. 👀
Video didn't have enough substance, felt too much like a sneak preview Ad for the "membership". Not saying you shouldn't have the membership, but the line between "membership content" and "free content" seemed off to me here if both are meant to be substantial. If this channel is just going to be ads for the paid membership, then so be it, not sure on the intent at this point.
Perhaps Jordan should stop making these videos and put more time into writing his own screenplay, unless if he just wants to make videos about better writers??

"They don't have to understand immediately". No one can say this with as much weight as Jim Uhls does!!
69th like. Nice.

I love this movie.
How I Wrote Avatar: The Last Airbender - Interview with Appa and Momo
Hi momo, so anyway how's your sex life?
@@futurestoryteller *flying lemur noises*
Jim BROKE the 1st AND 2nd RULE of Fight Club... but was TOTALLY worth it!
The rough draft is the skeleton . The meat is the story . Moving the story foward into the next act is the blood
Just found your channel and loving it so far. Binged like 2 hours. If possible, you should try to make "How I wrote Taxi Driver"
Keep up with the great videos man!
Thanks for all the great vids! I might go check out the full hour-long interview and more.

Am I the only one who noticed Brad Pitt' character appear for like one frame before he actually appears in the story... I'm sure i did
late as hell but theres four frames where tyler durden flashes on the screen. interesting detail
Jim Uhls is a genius! It's great, that u guys had the opportunity to interview him!
"Fight Club" for sure influenced the "doomer" memes xD
Thanks for the motivation sir! Always appreciated!
I appreciate the comment! Thanks!
I love your videos! Please, make a video about the writing process of "Lost in translation" by Sofia Coppola.
Any chance of you realising these interviews in podcast form on Spotify or something?
I think this is the only comedy David Fincher has done (the closest to a comedy any way). I wish he'd do another.
The book is actually very funny.
There's always just been a separation in pure genius from this film all around...
I'm done with my rough draft version of my screenplay .
That s awesome man
It's been 11 months, how did it go, brother?
I need to see a video about any charlie kaufman script please.
Why didn't the building they where standing in blow up also? The timer was still hooked back up by Durton.
Unreliable narrator
Fascinating stuff
Thanks so much!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for posting this free
Do a "how I wrote Twin Peaks". I'd love to get a peek into David Lynch's head.
I didn't know Donald Sutherland changed his name
Great interview, great channel
Thanks, Will!
I always felt that the book was like a skeleton or outline of the film. The film is much richer than the book.
The website link doesn't work for me on any if my devices, brings me to different site??
Great vid. I'm curious, is there a reason you seem to favor adaptations of novels over orign screenplays?
No reason! The majority of my videos are on original material. Hadn't thought about it before, honestly.
Talk about Fight Club and other films on our official Discord server: discord.gg/xxTqXXd
Please make a how I wrote Cowboy Bepop video.
That could be really interesting!
Do you have podcast?
Great channel.
I have a couple of things.

@@BehindtheCurtain Great! Keep going. Such very valueable interviews imo. I will check the membership. Thanks.
Goal completion 1 , again .
Best movie ever?
Yes.
No no, the best movie it is the one that makes the Best version of the wier
It's a great one!
Matrix,, Thay live,,
how I wrote westworld
How I wrote house M.D
it's the only time I've like the book better than the film
Interesting. I'm not paying for anything though
Idk why they did this interview. They broke the first 2 rules 🤔

What do you mean "not enough substance"? It was five uninterrupted minutes of substance by the creator himself!
You didn't write fight club, chuck palahniuk did :p
He is Chuck Palahniuk.
Reeeally not comfortable with that title. It should at least read, "How I Wrote the Fight Club Script".
It says Jim Uhls not Chuck Palahniuk what's the problem?
Perhaps Jordan should stop making these videos and put more time into writing his own screenplay, unless if he just wants to make videos about better writers??
Fuck off - these videos are amazing. Having a condensed form of insight straight from the source is invaluable
Why can't he do both?
