CHINA ENFORCES ‘FIGHT CLUB’ ALTERNATE ENDING

David Fincher’s Fight Club has arrived on Tencent, the Chinese streaming service.  But the version that appears there is wildly different to the version seen by the rest of the world.  The original see the death of Tyler Durden and the enactment of Project Mayhem; anarchy.

In this version, that ending is scrubbed and replaced with a text information revealing that Tyler Durden did not die and that the state was successful in subduing the group and their plans.

FIGHT CLUB’s ending for the Chinese release (on Tencent Video) was changed to this and now I’m waiting for someone to fanfic a sequel based on this censored ending. pic.twitter.com/zYB0bY3Dlp

No word yet on whether or not this version was ordered by Hollywood, too, since they seem to be hot on the heels of their Chinese counterparts with this kind of stuff.
