Three Reasons: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

[@seamac206]

1. Giliam's best film 2. Depp's best performance 3. Thompson's best novel

[@rainydayz6429]

Hell yea

[@brynleyjones2674]

Thats debatable with Brazil, but yeah

[@eamonsherry2185]

I’d say it is a much more enjoyable and rewatchable film than Brazil.

[@RossSmith-wd5mj]

Gilbert

[@hoopz5095]

Best film? Calm down there, buddy.

[@StealthMaster86]

1. The Unpredictable nature 2. Introducing me to Hunter S Thompson 3. Johnny Depp's Narration

[@CharlieDontSurfFilms]

I love how this is a better advertisement for the film than the actual trailer.

[@VVhistory]

Fear and loathing is the epitome of Terry's filmography, his true avant-garde film.

[@hoopz5095]

Brazil

[@1987Bateman]

Fear and Loathing is no masterpiece yet it is an underrated film which I love very much. I think Gilliam;s adaptation of Thompson's novel is excellent. An absolutely brilliant film if one is open-minded and interested in the story, characters and subject matter. A rare, funny and thought-provoking movie. And for for those who think it's just about drugs it isn't. It's about much more than that

[@Shanethefilmmaker]

1. Drugs 2. Hallucinations from the drugs. 3. The mayhem caused by the hallucinations from the drugs.

Order us some golf shoes! Otherwise we'll never get out of this place alive.

[@Prestige29]

Impossible to walk in this muck... no footing at all.

[@asafisher7407]

PLEASE TELL ME ABOUT THE FUCKING GOLF SHOES

[@buggle432]

Nobody is better at telling a horrifying story than the man, the myth, Hunter S. Thompson. He was thrilling while being entertaining and comical at the same time. His books were genius and his ideas were original. Fuck the American Dream! Find your own high in life...but not from drugs always.

[@macarthur19]

You want some beer? How about some ether? What? Nevermind.

[@PleomaxHD]

Great movie

[@Psergiorivera]

This movie is FUCKING AMAZING! Johnny and Benicio are so good!

[@HunterSThompson123]

it's not comedy dude, it's the tragic of a sick nation, overwhelmed from the feeling to find the truth, peace and freedom. These two dudes are clearly victims of this time and don't want to accept reality so they escape and on their way, they just gave a fuck, Nothing to like, it's tragic, but unique. But okay everybody has his sight.

When I recently went back and read critics' reviews of this film, when it was originally released, I couldn't believe that every. single. one of them missed this point entirely. Critics either liked it for it's depiction of drugs, but disliked its lack of structure. or they absolutely despised both of these things. People fail to realize that the Vegas book -- according to Hunter -- contains a lot of truth, but it's still only about 40% true. He crafted an absolutely brilliant farce, in the vein of Don Quixote, based on a very wild time in Vegas with Acosta, and nobody seemed to understand the film's (or the book's) thesis when the film was released. It's a complete foil to -- and rebuke of -- the Leary/Hippie movement. With all the drug use in the film, not one single moment of it is depicted as anything but an irritating obstacle or an intense, lucid nightmare. Whereas Leary's experience with LSD was in strictly controlled settings, designed to be influentially peaceful during LSD administrations, Hunter asked "What if the setting were different? If LSD can really fix all of America's woes, than certainly taking LSD in the very heart of the American Dream should produce transcendental beauty?" It's a tale of taking the drug of choice of the Hippy movement -- arguably the very fuel of it -- and combining it with the most exaggerated aspects of real, mainstream America, and how the two were never likely to peacefully coexist at all. But it's not just a criticism of the Leary/Hippy era: It's also a eulogy for it. There are certainly comedic aspects to the film, like Don Quixote is quite hilarious at times, but you're absolutely right that, at the heart of it, this is absolutely a tragedy.

[@SizerHive]

Hell yea, viva Las Vegas cover by the Dead Kennedy's!

[@Gojifan_69]

I just got this one on dvd today after looking all over for it

[@skoishmaloish499]

Love the use of the Dead Kennedys song in this!

[@mtvmadness934]

best sound track best drug movie world shattering ideas

[@HORIE66]

Agree. But there is a part of my heart that will be so happy to know that Tery Gilliam gets 1 billions dollar movie and have total criative freedom in his next movie.

[@Krakkulf]

@Soundstage8 it's the truth. It's cool that someone actually is marketing this as it should

[@itsenzo3000]

4. We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold

[@Jerry4050]

1. My old DVD has scratches so i'm going to Blu-ray 2. Better Quality 3. The commentary from Thompson which I heard is great on this version

[@solo1y]

Too weird to live; too rare to die.

[@PsychedelicFunkLover]

When they hit the high note on Alice... throw it in !

[@NOSSOBSEMAJ]

I would like to think that there is more to things than the boundaries of commercial and financial success.

[@MrTheAvenger666]

That movie is so underrated! That should make 1 billion dollars when released!

[@fortunateson14]

what is the opening song?

[@TheWizardofGore]

The best movie ever. In my opinion no other film can dethrone it. Also it made me not want to do any hard drugs lol. Only mescaline, according to Santana it makes guitars move like snakes, which would be an experience lol

[@Jester_851]

Is this Blu Ray? It looks incredible.

[@CancunMimosa]

What about the glands...?

[@juliaspike]

[@CrackRockKilla]

@marchofgodzilla hahaha exactly what I was thinking!

[@MrHEC381991]

1. legends 2. drugs, drugs, drugs.. 3. VEGAS!!

[@Pancrasio-it9qd]

Terry gilliam

[@Mustacio11]

so im not the only one who felt a little strange and high while watching the film?

[@HunterSThompson123]

wow you just don't understand the point of this movie. It describs the time after the 70's revolution of peace, love and freedom and a lot of people just couldn't pass the step to another society and kinda hanging in the 70's and thats the tragic note from this brilliant movie. They took their own path of american freedom, enjoyed life full and went over the borderline of human mind and existance. you must be such a naive fool and ultimately boring to hate the characters.

[@MrAwesome172]

What's the first song playing in this trailer, I REALLY would like to know

[@JohnSmith-ww2mg]

Jumping Jack Flash by the rolling stones

[@juliaspike]

reason 1: everyone that is cool likes this movie reason 2: it gives you the drug experience without actually taking drugs reason 3: tell me about the fucking golf shoes!

[@matrixman23517391]

Reason 1: Bat Country Reason 2: The Music Reason 3: Adrenochrome

[@thatcanadaguy2]

[@TheCrusha45]

You really really really need to watch this stoned.

[@Pengu561]

[@Davey768]

@MarakanaCacak1989 Watch the movie and you'll understand.

[@DickiMonster]

[@ThisHandleIsInteresting]

Aye, it would be like The Ring for audiences when they see fucked up Benicio del Toro XD

[@darkpatriot85]

@OhNoItsGojira FINISH THE FUCKING STORY!!!!!

[@TheWizardofGore]

I'd rather eat mescaline or LSD from scientists than mushrooms or peyote from nature.

[@Lookatthatshirt]

@fortunateson14 Alright now by the rolling stones

[@YaYCell43]

@pollitorsiones lol this guy

[@dannydinosaur73]

Just another freak....in the Freak Kingdom.

[@phxsns1]

@JesusCristo2002 Answer: No.

[@diddymuck]

its garbage. really. disjointed, unhumorous, without plot, and a collection of goofy moments telling no story whatsoever.

[@DaleRobby]

This movie was lame. The novel was funny, not great but a good read. It had depth and was able to look at the drug fueled chaos objectively. This movie is just obnoxious and one note.

[@PleomaxHD]

Great movie

[@ZondervanSchnibble]

Oh yeah, I forgot-- I love this movie.

[@PleomaxHD]

Great movie
