Gonna watch this for the first time. What am I in for?

Memes and plenty of quotes that will get you tons of epic upvotes.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro

A subpar replacement for reading the book
It's still good tho
But read the book

It's good but has been memed into oblivion.

shitty movie
you wont know whats happening 90% of the time

The best movie of all time

Not even joking

UPDATE

WHY IS TOBEY IN THIS MOVIE? NO ONE TOLD ME THIS WAS KINO

>t. brainlet

A really good movie. If you take some acid first though then you'll be in for a fucking amazing movie.

t. hunter uhhhhhhhh s. *mumbles for 5 solid minutes with a distorted screen* thompson

Why would anyone take acid and then sit down and stare at a screen for the effects duration?
Like do what you want but that seems like a waste to me.

nobody said you're going to sit there the whole time. That's part of the fun. It'll take you all night to get through that entire fucking movie.

thats the joke you fucking autist

the first time I watched this I was stoned out of my mind in junior year of high school. It made me laugh several times. Hunter S Thompson made me want to study literature, with that said in retrospect what he wrote wasn't that great, and I think his suicide had a lot to do with the fact that he couldn't come up with new material and got bored getting drunk and high 24/7 acting like some caricature of himself that he created. inb4 dude weed lmao

over a computer you cant read sarcasm fag

for added delirium do some datura

tfw you WILL NEVER get a Fear and Loathing On The Campaign Trail of 2016 by Hunter S. Thompson

If you were born after 1980 you won't get it.

/thread
this nigga knows what's up

I was born in 88 and I loved it. Watched it for the first time when I was 19. I don't see what you think people wouldn't "get" about it.
Can you elaborate?

nah I know people born in the 90s that like this movie

>everyone born after 1980s never did drugs

It's one of the best films ever made. Don't listen to the literal spastics here who call it Reddit along with everything else. You can't win with this contrarian slime.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is GOAT

Hi 1988 friend. It's one of my favourite films. I was also born in 88.

>le books

Right on, my dude.

Really I was just memeing but I think people who went to HS/college in the interlude between when the drug war really fucked shit up and when silkroad let people get things in the mail really missed out on easily available, hard, pure drugs. Saying this of course as a person who saw the end of the "old" good times, the shitty meme chemicals in-between, and was getting too old for that shit by the time the good stuff returned. YMMV, but that was my experience.

well for one the movie is what 2 hours, a little over 2 hours. Acid can last I dk 8 hours with some lingering after effects up to like 10 hours. I have watched some movies on acid before. I watched Fantasia on acid. It was incredibly moving.

Well, he's a role model for journalists usually, not novelists. As an author he's not among the greats and he never was.

I dropped acid and watched El Topo for the first time and it was far from a waste. Everything down to Alejandro's characer smiling for no reason was hilarious.

and he destroyed journalism.

In my experience people who never did drugs don't like it and people who did drugs do like it.

if you're from reddit

I used to like chocolate ice cream but the other day I found a chocolate ice cream subreddit, apparently reddit loves chocolate ice cream. So fuck chocolate ice cream, it's for normie fags, I hate it so much now.

It's a film about drugs.
Do drugs, watch the movie; it's an experience.
Don't get lost in that shit though, Thompson was a nutjob.

Nice yiffy rip faggot.

somebody get this hothead out of here.

But seriously, liberalism and casual drug use is something reddit would discuss.

There's a subreddit for fucking everything. If you think Hunter Thompson is a "liberal" you have no fucking clue what you're talking about.

watch Where the Buffalo Roam afterwards

and Rum Diary

So is Fear & Loathing the quintessential reddit movie? Hip and cool without substance?

pretty much everything in the book was in the movie

is the book any good? I never read books but I thought about reading it

garbage movie

DUDE DRUGS LMAO

it gets old after about the first 30 minutes

it's pointless if you've already seen the movie

A pretty good time.
I was amazed at how faithfully the movie followed the book.

Dont really think Johnny Depp should do comedy

Bat country...

Overrated movie adaptation of an overrated book by an overrated pedo/cannibal starring overrated "actor" Johnny Depp

you should watch A Field In England instead if you're into /drugkino/

no

there is a lot of substances in fear and loathing

Pretty funny, but when the movie was in development/getting pitched/etc some guys from a production company tried to pitch an animated sequence of Duke literally surfing on a wave during that amazing monologue 3/4s of the way through.

Praised by degenerates.
Hated by evryone else.
Despised by people that actually know the history and politics behind his quirrel.
