If you are as obsessed with Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas as I am, then you'd probably get a kick out of this techno song...you'll have to look it up yourself though...it's called "FUN WITH DRUGS" and it's by a group called VELVET ACID CHRIST...and it's tryppi as hell when you're high
yea im a fan of this fuckin kick ass movie!!! well thx for the info, and by the way, even if i know its totally out of this subject, but i found like 2 or 3 things pretty strange in this movie. like when theyre in the casino, we can see, real fast, a member of the ku klux klan in the casino, just nowhere. and when theyre in the bathroom (with the orange and radio thing), we can see a hand closed, just like the skinhead sign, wrote with some shave cream on the wall. anyway i dont know if this means any racist thing, but just wonderin if anyone remarked it.
hmmmm never really noticed, i'll have to watch it again .... and again....and again...and again...
Great fucking movie...that reminds me i need to get that back....
Tell me about the fucking golf shoes!
i hear the movie sucks, but i've read the book and it was great
Never read the book, but the movie is fucking awesome!Quote:

i'm a fan of the movie and i think it's great.
Love this movie. Possibly my favorite. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is up there.
..... Jesus man, we're in bat country!
i love when he's in the car with "spiderman" and he starts thinking he was speaking out loud. haha...that shit is hilarious.

What the hell are you talking about? Are you completely retarded or something...?
That movie fucking rocks.
Did anyone else notice that in the bar he ordered some drink with 'mescal on the side'? Was mescaline legal then or something?
mescaline isn't really illegal, so to speak. as long as you have no intent on ingesting the mescaline (which the law doesn't have to know) then your okay.
thats my favorite movie to watch when i just wanna say fuck the world and get away hehe <3 Fear and Loathing
they did some crazy stuff
it's supposedly all true, well more true than not
"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of uppers, downers, laughers, screamers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon."
i'm going to rent the moive tommorow
i have the criterion's collection of the movie. in it is thompsons elaborate journey; fear and loathing in las vegas.Quote:

hopefully
the book is great.
YES THIS MOVIE FREAKING ROCKS!!!!
I have probably watched it 500 times...i even have it on my cell phone to watch if i ever get bored, haha.
btw..
mescal comes from mescal beans...it is in no way related to and contains absoloutly no mescaline...erowid has the info on this....also adenochrome will NOT make you trip...its totally a myth....
Did you see what GOD just did to us maaaannn?
hahaha! when they lose all their blow. i have to admit...i shared the same emotion when that happened...well...maybe not the same emotion, but it was close.
yeah i own some velvet acid christ cd's they arnt really my type of music but they have a couple of good songs and i think it important to get some musical diversity.
Oh and the film.....the film is amazing....i tripped really hard to it on lsa before, but i couldnt really make out what was going on....crazy drug. But ive watched it about 100 times before aand still love it.
"And a voice was screaming HOLY JESUS WHAT ARE YOU GODDAMN ANIMALS?!"
*So their I was..Holy fuck! There I am.*
I love that movie, I'm going to buy it first paycheck, then I'm buying the poster. :)
The DVD documentry with Hunter talking over the movie is deep shit, that dude was a rock star!!!!
it is much better when you're fucked up
so has anyone actually listened to that song yet? that was the original purpose of this post...that song is like an anthem to the movie to me...it has all the best quotes just scattered through it
are you talking about the criterion collection? i have it, but i never bring myself to watch the supplements. the movie is usually enough for me.Quote:

that's awesome! i bet it was an exciting paper. just the thought of fear and loathing in a school environment is exciting.Quote:

what does everyone think of johnny depp's performance? i think he did a wonderful job of playing thompson....he's equally as wierd as him.
yo ozzyoz, did you ever watch the movie? tell me what you thought about it.
what song, the only one that comes to mind is 'One Toke' by brewer and shipleyQuote:
