4. Brad Pitt & Edward Norton Fight Club
Fight Club is the acclaimed cult classic directed by David Fincher and based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk. The film was released in 1999 and stars Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. During the film, there's a scene that sees Pitt and Norton's characters get drunk and whack a bunch of golf balls with clubs. It's one of the more light-hearted scenes in a film with a whole lot of darkness, so it stands out as being pretty memorable. But there are several interesting facts about its inclusion. For a start, it wasn't scripted the whole thing was improvised by Pitt and Norton. How'd they come up with it? Well, they didn't not really. The two were legitimately drunk one night, and thought it would be hilarious if they tried to hit the film set's catering van with a bunch of golf balls. Director David Fincher decided to film the drunken antics, and upon watching the footage back he thought it was so good that he decided to include it in the actual film.
