6. Rosie O'Donnell Revealed The Twist Live On TV
Rosie O'Donnell is the kind of person who splits opinion right down the middle - but this little factoid is bound to change your mind if you happen to be on the fence. When Fight Club came out, then, O'Donnell decided that she didn't like the movie and lobbied against the sex and violence and pretty much all the content in the picture on her TV show in an attempt to prevent people from going to see it. Not cool, Rosie. And then she did something that - in the aftermath - Brad Pitt has since deemed "unforgivable" - she ruined the plot twist inherent to the movie, exposing Tyler Durden as one-half of Edward Norton's deranged personality. Whatever you think of O'Donnell or of Fight Club, you have to admit that there's no excuse for ruining a movie live on TV in front of millions of unassuming people. "Unforgivable" is an understatement.
