re: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Right, but we are talking about the movie and while Depp’s portrayal is great, it doesn’t match the man shown in a documentary about Thompson.

Sure, he may pull out drugs or guns at any moment, but he also went and covered political events.

Hunter Thompson’s hipster vibe

Hunter S. Thompson would absolutely loathe (no pun intended) hipsters if he was alive today.

He's what hipsters think they are and try so hard to be but can't because they don't have an original bone their body and are too busy sniffing their own assholes.

On topic, the book is amazing and makes me literally lol. Movie is entertaining in capturing some of the madness and Depp is probably the only actor that could've portrayed him with any accuracy considering how close they were.
