| Come on people. I know you have all seen this one. Fear and Loathing is a legend of a movie, my all time favorite. Hunter S Thompson (R.I.P.) is one of my heroes. tell me what you think about this movie, and your thoughts about Thompson, if you will. |

| I mainly watched it because of Johnny Depp, and as so often with films that feature Johnny it was great. I'd definitely watch it again. |

I've read the book.
It was ... I don't even know how to start.
But I liked it. |

I've seen it couple of times, once I was high..... maybe this experience explains what I've become now.. haha
seriously, it's a great movie. I heard about the book but didn't read it. |

I saw the movie years after I read the book, liked the book much much better. Usually the case.
Johnny Depp was amazing as Hunter S. |

yeah watching this film made me feel like I was on something. I remember the poster really freaked me out when it came out, because I was seeing it everywhere. But now we have a giant size one for the wall hah

Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas is one of my favourite books and movies, and Hunter is one my hero too.
They're just so fuckin' crazy, warped and insane and weird all in one nice bundle, and the movie makes the book come alive. Definitely one on the list of masterpieces. |

That film made my brain bleed through the sheer fucked upness of it all.
Brilliant  |
