Vote for a candidate that stands for liberty, freedom, and fighting against increasing state tyranny! A candidate that has been consistent in their beliefs for dozens of years. A candidate standing for small government; ending the wars, ending the war on drugs, and ending America's bloated and unsustainable empire.
Vote up, spread the message, and inform family and friends; support real change. This upcoming election really matters, and liberty can win.
It's fun to listen to Thompson's senseless ramblings. But at length you can't escape the fact that HST proves "the mind is a terrible thing to waste" (or get wasted). What he did to his mind and writing through drugs exceeds what Hemingway did through alcohol. And it took them both to the same end.
If only HST had grown out of the drugs and booze (assuming all the tales are true)? I'm a fan, but his end was is pure tragedy. He should be on the Sunday News shows now, not pushing up daisies.
@mccheese0 Hunter's suicide wasn't drug addled at the time. He just didn't want to grow old. It is an extraordinary tragedy, but it was what he wanted.
@TheAlternaBarbie Yeah, I understand what you're saying, but I'll voice the unpopular view that his suicide went past the natural limits of personal freedom. Of course, that's maybe what we expect of HST. Still it's a shame. He had so much yet to contribute to his country, not to mention his fans and family (not necessarily in that order). Like Hemingway, he died before his time and seemingly on an impulse. So sad. He made so much sense beneath all his crazy behavior.
what is he talking about?? haha if HST was to say this aloud you wouldnt understand a single word. thats why his writing is fantastic and there is no others like him.
The useless banterings of a rhetorician hard at work, or valuable assets to a society that begs for wordsmithing? What, indeed, do we believe to be the true definition of the American Dream? Perhaps I have the answers, perhaps not. Either way, this topic is opened for discussion in my new video.
This is pretty much just as amazing as Fear and Loathing itself. If Johnny Depp hasn't recorded an audio book out of Fear and Loathing, he fucking should.
Screw all of the people who became fans of Depp after the movies he made after Pirates of the Caribbean. Like this if you've seen What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Ed Wood, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, or even frickin' Edward Scissorhands.
@Mr001alpa Sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up, Once you are as much of a legend as The Good Dr you can then stand up and speak again, You fucking tool!

FUCK YOU AND YOUR FUCKING DOCTOR WITH HIS FUCKING BRAIN
@Mr001alpa You my friend, have a classic case of over emphasizing nothing and believing it to be something. The nothing I refer to is the brain lodged in between those two useless ears that should be used to coalesce some form of feeble intelligence, but rather you have used your nothingness to form a brand of ignorance seen and used by many. Look into the words of man, into the message of a man, specifically Hunter S. Thompson, and you will seen something weird to live, and too rare to die.
i hope he some day stop smoke like a chimeney ;( he stoped almost two years but now is again.. first time he smokes was when he was 12 years old.. i cannot imagine he's so healty but please stop it, his voice he is voice is so sexy, Lily and Jack are so lucky (if when they was child he reads them books ;) )
These criminal psychopaths that have hijacked our country are murdering Americans to avoid losing power and prosecution. You had no idea how much time he had left.
Why can't we all be real people instead of cardboard cutouts that look like real people? Hunter was a real person; is a real person. He cared enough to know how important it was to find the truth and save the world from the liars of Hell. Hunter was about to put a very big crack in a not very well made wall of lies. They murdered him to stop his light from ruining their perfect darkness. We need to know the Truth and lose all sense of fear before it's too late.
@TruthInjector "They murdered him to stop his light from ruining their perfect darkness". Thompson took his own life man. Don't project your own lies.
@TruthInjector he lived a long life and did a lot of drugs, he probably didn't have much time left anyway. Carlin died of a heart attack and that seems like Carlin, shooting himself seems like Hunter.
ive been looking for thompson audio books, because i think the voice adds a whole new dimension to the writing, and not one i could find was narrated by depp, who has the best Thompson voice
This prophesy is ungodly and unclaimed mayhem that will only be seen through the eyes of some chosen few that have touched the tips of the holiest foresaken ghost that we all lay claim to know. Yee haw shoots gawd damn lets git it awn!
i really dig shit like this johnny depp is one of the best actors period! a non-conformist like me from 21 jumpstreet to edward schissorhands to ed wood to fear and loathing to captain jack sparrow rock on man!

One of the great HST I've heard write. Kills me that he ended the first page 'where does your mother live' and (pause) on the next page, goes on to something harmless.
I was at the event Thompson's writing about. Depp looked very irritated to be there. It's nice to finally understand why. I believe the "Dotson" he's referring to had already passed away, but his son may have been the police chief at the time.
Hst the altered state of mind of a genuis exentric who resides over the us all.GONZO! suicide ,,,,and wMd'S R constructed in 1976 toyota trucks with bb gun tourents
is there anything johnny isn't good at? He's so talented! And so many things amazing about him, his voice... ahh... I used to think , or err, still think he isn't human... uh, you all think I'm a nut now! Oh well. He's just so perfect :)
Wow...Johnny sure can read...daiiimmm...he got so into it and never messed up...I could practice reading a letter like that many many times and would still probably mess up at some point, but he just did it flawlessly with so much feeling....and I love it when he says "fucking"....ah Johnny....<333333333333
depp was obsessed with Hunter and even lived with him for a while during he peak of their friendship. it's easy to see how much depp has learned from hunter and how much influence he has taken from him
god dammit i wish i received letters like that. forced into the journalism business? that's the best punishment i've ever heard of! that should totally replace the death sentence.
I believe this was a little helper from Thompson...gave Depp a little bit of feel for how he really is - Thompson might have figured Depp is used to translating emotion from writings
I like that Depp is not your typical hollywood jock. He's eccentric, smart and non-conforming, not to mention how he disappears into his characters. Fuckin refreshing if you ask me.
@SharksKid as a person he might be very original, but you cant tell unless you know him personaly. but as an actor, yes hes very good. i found myself liking Dicaprio's play in films lately. just as Depp i disrespected him after his cheesy role in Titanik, but he didnt sell out and started doing good movies. They're both my favourite actors of this generation.
@ghosthunter2006 Jack Dawson was not a cheesy character...it was one of Dicaprio's best works in a lot of people's opinion. Of course you and everyone has the right to their own opinion.
No no, this was filmed years ago... not sure how many. But it's in the special features on the Criterion Collection edition of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, which I got about three years ago.
no i dont think he is, he said he was incomfortable playing the 'young republican' on 21 Jump Street. He also said the only thing he and Tom Hanson had in common was that they looked alike, and Hanson was a republican
Hunter S. Thompson was one of the supreme letter-writers in American history! Two volumes of his old letters and responses are available for purchase with the third and final one coming out probably next year. HST was smart enough to keep everything he ever wrote with the idea that some day it might be published.
I wouldve given anything to know Hunter Thompson. He was a one of a kind genius. It seems he died to early but it was on his terms and its what he wanted so I respect that. Ill never stop learning from the great doctor. Im sure itll be a challenge but RIP Dr. Gonzo

Is Johnny Depp republican?
Snotra 3 years ago
i HIGHLY doubt it. he doesnt even live in the u.s. anymore cause he's not a big fan of america and american politics
jjk696969 3 years ago
no i dont think he is, he said he was incomfortable playing the 'young republican' on 21 Jump Street. He also said the only thing he and Tom Hanson had in common was that they looked alike, and Hanson was a republican

Hunter S. Thompson was one of the supreme letter-writers in American history! Two volumes of his old letters and responses are available for purchase with the third and final one coming out probably next year. HST was smart enough to keep everything he ever wrote with the idea that some day it might be published.

I can't wait until The Rum Diary movie is released. Depp really is the only one that could ever pull that roll off so well.

he almost falls into the character he would then go on to play. he starts reading as johnny, himself, but then his delivery changes. brilliant.
