Why it worked

The post likely worked by leveraging a surprising and humorous contrast between the expected ending of a popular movie and an alternative, censored version. The "Chinese ending" presented is absurd and unexpected, creating a strong comedic effect that encourages engagement and sharing.

Summary

This TikTok post presents two contrasting endings for the movie Fight Club. The first slide shows a Chinese ending where the police successfully prevent an explosion and arrest criminals, with Tyler being sent to a mental institution. The second slide shows a different, more conventional ending where Mark Collins surrenders and receives a life sentence.
