Hello I am new, In response to whoever started this thread, you said that Fear and Loathing was just about two dudes getting fucked up. Give it more credit than that, the author Hunter S. Thompson calls it "an epitaph for a lost generation." THe movie is very funny but its more about the failures of the late sixties revolutions (including the antiwar, civil rights movements) and how after all that work the world still has wars and violence and racism. Edit: If you are wondering, I am not hunter thompson this is not an advertisement for Fear and Loathing, but you all should definitely read the book Sincerely Hunter S. THompson
