Violence in the time of Postmodernism

Further consideration upon the previous subject yields another thread of deconstructed, hyperreal stories with extremely collaged elements and a fascination with destroying coherent narrative which ground the actual plot in another universal old story.

The War Story.

Fight Club, both the movie and the book.
Sin City, both the comic and the book
300, again both the comic and the book (and again Frank Miller)

So… Sex and Violence can hold a narrative together even when most other elements have their original significance compromised as they are bricolaged into a new narrative.
