Ok, why the penguin in Fight Club? Why does it tell him to slide?


Ok, why the penguin in Fight Club? Why does it tell him to slide?

There's no real reason for it. Chuck Palahniuk (the author of the book) has said that when he did the visualization exercise his "power animal" was a penguin and it said slide. It's not really a plot point or character point as much as it is Palahniuk being Palahniuk and putting stuff from his life into his books which was then included in the movie.

My "opinion".... I think the penguin, being is Power animal, means that he is a weak person. Penguins arent known for being strong fearful animals. I think he tells him to slide because he wants him to have fun in all he does. Tyler always laughed at everything, and I think that is the point. Jack was always depressed and couldn't sleep. Thats just a thought though. I could be wrong.
