- Hunter Thompson and his attorney, "Dr. Gonzo" (played by Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro, respectively), attend a "District Attorneys' Convention on Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs" in Las Vegas while tripping on LSD. This segment includes a lecture by Dr. L. Ron Bumquist (played by Michael Jeter) on the effects of marijuana.
good question
Eh I prefer the one that doesn’t turn you mad. Gets annoying.
Weed at the time was illegal as fuck just imagine how paranoid they are lol.
They are fucked up on about 7 diff drugs at this point.
So paranoid that he starts bumping cocaine right there and then! haha
Sadly it still is illegal as fuck in many States and countries all around the world.
@scorpian: And, Nevada was months of states with the most severe anti-drug laws. Marijuana got the same penalty as cocaine.
You were pretty safe, even in the 1970s, smoking a joint on the sidewalk in San Francisco. But in Nevada it was a whole other story.
Now, Nevada has decriminalized MJ, and there are legal dispensaries in Las Vegas. Things change.
1:11 That fourth wall breaking look has me rolling on the floor
Lmfao
“Good question” love it
I love this scene, laugh everytime I watch Gonzo scream.
I’ll admit I smoked a lot of tree had a lot of drinks while watching this whole movies a blur and I’m reconnecting it and I love it🤣💀
best way is to watch it while fucked up on something aye mate hahaha
I like watching this on acid, this scene in particular is my favorite because the guys mustache always looks hilarious
**checks pants**
“Look like a roach. WTF?” Lol
But I mean it kinda does tho
lol one of the best parts of the movie, the cop convention lol
it's genius satire. in the book they were really talking to people and posing as cops telling them bullshit stoories while they were stoned to the bone. the cheekiness that this movie has is like none other. this is my favorite movie in the world! story too lol
“I saw these bastards in Easy Rider, I didn’t believe they were real...not like this, man, not hundreds of them.
They’re actually pretty nice people once you get to know them.
Know them, man? I know these people like goddamn blood!
Don’t say that word around here! Get them excited...
Yeah right.”
You really have to pay attention to the dialogue which is why I can watch this movie over and over again. You pick up on little details that are hilarious!
I think when he says "theyre actually oretty nive people once you get to know them," HST is referencing PG Wodehouse, who famously got into trouble for saying that about the nazi germans after he ended up in their custody for a time.
That definitely puts some irony in the line now! haha
@@SavageHenry777 I wonder if those who were upset understood that Wodehouse was a humourist lol...
@@zufgh Yeah, it also could have been just an honest assessment of how he felt towards his specific hosts as individuals, as distinguished from their nationality. I have no idea truth be told if he meant it to be tongue in cheek or not.
This is truly the best movie to watch on lsd. Because of the time distortions you experience on higher doses of lsd, there are scenes in the film that just work better. The scene where Johnny Depp is at the bar and it's right before everyone in the casino turns to lizards, there's a like a second in that scene where he gets freaked out by a fly or something. And the shot lingers on him for a second but it feels like an eternity on lsd.
"The dope fiend fears nothing."
Most of them cops in that room would either be on alcohol or Coke or both. If that cop convention was real.
I really want to read his pamphlet
❤ his pants

This is a fucking nightmare 😂
S/o to everybody with a deep visceral hatred for “those *cool guys* 😒”
Wild that people still believe this stuff
What stuff?
@@dannwan8537 Nixon's anti drug platform was based on lies and fallacies but he used it to target the hippie counterculture, which, as the movie elaborates, was its own demon.
There are people who will still equate all substances the same way, who perceive anyone who has used cannabis as soulless, and they tend to be the people who drink, and smoke tobacco, and use prescription opioids, or at least approve of them, because the government does.
Nixon ran his platform insisting that Cannabis -which he insisted on calling Marijuana so to associate it with the Mexican border- was the most dangerous, most addictive drug getting scheduled.
There are people who have never even heard the word "Cannabis" and don't know what it is, but know all about "the dangers of marijuana".
Only further illustrating that the masses are gullible and will believe whatever you tell them so long as you provoke an emotional reaction from them.
That marijuana turns a good wholesome Christian man into a ravaging raping killer
He can become one of those coool guys. 😂😂😂😂
Lmao!!! " what a fucking nightmare"
"Gotta Love it, gotta half it."

FRANK OZ
Frank Oz is not in this movie?
@@Frankmt215 I know it’s looks like him, it’s actually Michael Jeter lol
If you like Frank Oz, watch (or rewatch) An American Werewolf in London! He has a hilarious moment where if you close your eyes it sounds like Grover from Sesame Street trying to calm down the lead character. haha
This is like a Trump rally.
Now its more like a Biden Rally LMAO if anyone even shows up that is....
You have no idea who Trump is or what his followers are about besides "hurr durr REE PUBS BAAAD!" On CNN and even fox.
Seeing as he doesn't even know what the hell is going on, Biden can't even be called 'hip'.
Mr Noodle from Sesame Street
Hahahaha
Somewhere there might be to speak of that a person gratuitously had not because rotten
This is a Do you know I have real people to do us
: Dr. Bumquist, do you think the anthropologist Margaret Mead's strange behavior of late could be explained by a private marijuana addiction? 😂😂
Good question!
This sounds so fucked up when you're on acid.
@@colombiankingcr You must have had a hell of a trip
Crowley tried. H s Thompson made it to the north face. Obama, biden, Trump conquered the 🤡 summit😊
