What item is in every Fight Club scene?

• A Coca-Cola can

• A Starbucks cup

• A Dunkin’ donut

• A Pepsi bottle

Answer explanation

Director David Fincher thought the Starbucks shops popping up on every block of LA in the late ‘90s was “too much of a good thing,” so he poked fun of the coffee chain in Fight Club. He’s claimed to have sneaked a Starbucks cup into every shot, with the permission of the chain—with one exception. Starbucks didn’t want its shop destroyed on film, so that scene uses the made-up Gratifico Coffee instead.
