Damn you that's a great one. God that flick is loaded with gems...
"One toke? You poor fool! Wait till you see those goddamn bats. " (in response to the song "One Toke Over the Line")
Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Your normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop-heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. "
Another one from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas...
Strange memories on this nervous night in Las Vegas.
Has it been five years? Six?
It seems like a lifetime -- the kind of peak that never comes again.
San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. But no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant.
THERE WAS MADNESS IN ANY DIRECTION, AT ANY HOUR... YOU COULD STRIKE SPARKS ANYWHERE. THERE WAS A FANTASTIC UNIVERSAL SENSE THAT WHATEVER WE WERE DOING WAS RIGHT, THAT WE WERE WINNING. AND THAT, I THINK, WAS THE HANDLE -- THAT SENSE OF INEVITABLE VICTORY OVER THE FORCES OF OLD AND EVIL. NOT IN ANY MEAN OR MILITARY SENSE; WE DIDN'T NEED THAT. OUR ENERGY WOULD SIMPLY prevail. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave...
So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look west, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high water mark -- that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

Ahhhh more Lear and Loathing:
"We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon."

Fear and Loathing takes place in the seventies. When Hunter has his flashback it's to the late sixties during a GD concert at an Acid Test, around '68. In the movie you'll recognize this as the scene when Johnny Depp sees the real Hunter Thompson and says "There I was...Mother of God; there I am!"

Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn:
Quick-cut montage as Ash modifies a chainsaw, plugs it onto the severed stump of his wrist, starts the thing with a shoulder-mounted clasp and slices the barrels of his shotgun, which he twirls in old-time Western fashion and then places in a holster on his back.
