But, just remember: all that strident and perspicacious life advice may be coming at you courtesy of a doughy, goateed white guy who’s now watched a single DVD enough times to quote it from memory. David Fincher should reissue a special edition that ships with a beard trimmer, a bag of Doritos™, and a large motherfucking grain of salt.
