Very intense camera work. The narration reminds me of a manic Jim Rome for its over-sold enthusiasm but it's decent enough as a primer for the Baja 1000. |

Anyone seen the trailer of The Rum Diary? From the mind of Hunter S. Thompson, starring Johnny Depp. Along the lines of Fear & Loathing, looking at the trailer this could be a fun movie. Doubt it will come near F&L though. |
Ugh... I'm completely turned off from anything Johnny Depp is in nowadays. He has over-saturated the eccentric role thing, and has become a caricature of a caricature at this point. The one movie he was in recently where he didn't play a ing weirdo, as John Dillinger in Public Enemies, sucked a fat dick. Go away, Johnny! :whip: |

I have two classics on my hands which I haven't watched before:
1. Seven Samurai
2. 2001: A Space Odyssey
which should I watch first?
edit: went with Kubrick |

It's true. He sucks now. I keep waiting for him to do something decent for less pay to redeem himself, but if he has, I haven't heard of it. |

Couldn't agree more. The problem is that the **** thinks he and hunter s Thompson are alike, so he thinks he can play any character of his. If he ruins the book I'm going to be pissed. The books character isn't eccentric though, so honestly it COULD be a chance for depp to get away from that with a more serious role... |
