easy rider
 

was fucking terrible. i cant believe motorcyclist talked me into it. at least i stole it so no one got any royalties. i would say at least i saw toni basil naked but that was just a novelty really. considering that most of my favorite films came out of the new hollywood era im def dissapointed. if i need a drug trip hippie romp across the country into inevitable death movie from now on im reaching for vanishing point. :gofurslf: hopper

It's not a 'timeless classic' and requires thinking more like people were in the time it was made. :idk:

The whole anti-establishment thing isn't really something a lot of us can relate to anymore. We're more into re-establishment now. :lol:

I never got it either.

I never did see what was so special about it either.

I found Biker Boyz to be more interesting, and would rather set my head on fire and put it out with a sledgehammer before I see that again.

Never saw it. It's on my list of movies to watch either.

its basically fonda hopper and nicholson (literally) getting stoned to bad music and some of the worst wipes ever seen in film followed by a oh shit we just sobered up and have no end to this trainwreck visit to the deus ex machina shop. avoid at all costs

Unless you're a hippy, you can't really appreciate Easy Rider.

I personally hated that flick. As was The Wild One with Marlon Brando. Marlon Brando my ass!!! It was a shitty fucking movie.:td:

dammit man i was about to try that one next! Lol

They really beat you over the head with the whole "hippies are the nicest, most generous, most accepting, most loving people in the whole wide world. Everyone else sucks and hates you" message.

I also thought it was slow. I guess when your primary demographic is going to be high you can't move the plot along too rapidly. When 15 or so minutes of a 95 minute movie is guys riding motorcycles you know they had some time to fill. I know it won awards, but I don't care.

Moto movies to watch
 

I haven't seen it since I was a child, but I remember Electra Glide In Blue leaving quite an impression.
