I'm reading the book right now. It is soo good. You guys should go and get it, if given the chance. Depp's narrations are taken straight from it, and it makes a helluva lot more sense than if you just see the movie. It's hard to believe Hunter S. Thompson did all this crazy stuff. I'm up to the part now where they're trying to decide what to do with Lucy. It's one of the best books I've read thus far.

Cool....I didnt know there was a book. Yes, it is entitled "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream" by Hunter S. Thompson (aka 'Raoul Duke') It's a great read. Not that long either, only 200 pages!

I'm getting Fear and Loathing sometime this week or next week ;D. My mom told me she would order it as long as I would pay for it. So I got the money from my dad. LOL

this movie ROX. I read that they snorted alot of powdered milk durring the movie. and did you notice that there was never a scene where Mr. Duke diddn't have a ciggie in his mouth, (except the part when he drinks the adrinacrome and goes crazzzy) i actually think he is REALLY HOT in this movie!!!
