fear and loathing in las vegas

that movie i've seen yesterday 2nd time
how do you like it? what do you think about it?

 

aw man i only read the book but the book was goood...
i heard that movie is good and fun to watch on shrooms haha.

how do u like it and wut do you think bout it? hehe

 

dude, i loved that movie...johnny depp's a great actor and the whole way they narrate it...through his thoughts, is pretty cool to me...

 

I've half-watched the movie (I'm ashamed to say I fell asleep!) and really enjoyed it. Gonzo journalism's fantastic, I really ought to find out more about it.

 

ive watched the movie quite a few times. Havent watched it on shrooms yet though.
The book was good too. I think everyone should read the book before seeing the movie.

 

Ah.. fear and loathing. I am proud to say that not only have I read the book and seen the movie countless times, but I could also reccommend some other great peices of gonzo journalism!!

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, is an exaggeration of one of the many outrageous memories of H.S.T (may he rest in peace ). EXAGGERRATED... but based upon truth.

I have watched it all fucked up on shrooms, LSD, Ecstacy (couldn't sit still and watch it then) and whatever else has come across my path.

All in all please look beyond the hardcore superhero drug usage, and the extravegant style that they lived in Las Vegas- all for free. It really is about the American Dream. Listen to the references in between the craziness. Listen to him talk about how 1965 was a beautiful time that may never come again. Listen to him descibe the feeling people had. And at the very end, listen to him talk about the aftermath and where to go from there. In the midst of his unruly behavior, he was a pretty damn smart man.

If you like it, I would suggest reading Rum Diaries, Kingdom of Fear, The Great Shark Hunt, and Songs of the Doomed (my personal favorite). There are others, but I am too lazy to look them up this second.

For those who really aren't into books, rent Where the Buffalo Roam. Like Johnny Depp, Bill Murrey was a good friend of HST, which is why he chose Murrey to play himself. Same with Depp in Fear and Loathing.

I think Depp does a better job.

 

Never seen it...
I may tonight...
Headymoe, I love the new pic.
Cheers!

 

hey, thanks!

It was taken last weekend. The quality is kinda crappy, but I was having the time of my life and it shows!

 

Yeah, it looks like a good time.
Where exactly was it at?

 

it was at this beach on Lake Erie.The sand on the beach is so soft. I had some good Lucy left over from Summer Camp and I had so much fun playing on the beach like a little kid!

It really was a good time. One for the books!

 

AWE!
That blows...
I want some Lucy.

Glad you had a good time though!

 

Hey, do you live in Erie? I used to live there.

 

I live in Jamestown, NY which is about a 45 minute drive.

This was at presque isle.

 

Ok, you're one of the first people of met that actually knows there is a beach in Erie..hehe...

 

haha.. yeah I know what you mean. It's really nice there, though! I loved it.

 

That's good, I'm glad you liked it, there are some really private spots that you can find, good for skinny-dipping

 

OMG where? I was thinking about that the whole day I was there.

 

Well, my grandparents live right near the beach and there is a trail behind their house that leads down to it, it's so awesome, no one ever goes there, so, we pretty much have our own private beach. And eventually if you walk long enough on presque isle you'll come to places where there are no lifeguards and it's pretty desolate. I love it there..

 

if you're ever visiting your grandparents, let me know!

I don't bite or anything!

 

Haha, I will, you seem pretty cool
