I think the best video adaptation of somebody tripping is when Lisa drank the water in the amusement park ride.

My favorite quote of scarface "Say Hello To My Little Friend"Originally posted by molly bloom
And who could forget 'Scarface' ?

Oh and another Pacino drug fest- 'Carlito's Way' .
Not to mention: 'Superfly'. Aaahh, the morally superior 70s, when drug dealers could be heroes.

The only one of these that I haven't seen is Requiem for a Dream and Traffic. I have to check those two out.
No one has mentioned Sid and Nancy. That was pretty good. Gary Oldman was spot on as usual."In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

I watched Tron many years ago when I was still on the dating scene. The young lady I watched it with stated that we should watch it after smoking pot, or better yet taking some LSD. Since I was subject to drug testing (and still am after 23 years) this was a non-starter.

The French Connection“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

I watched SLC on a crappy VHS the first time I saw it, and during the acid scene it the park the player had tracking problems. I thought at the time that it wasn't the player at all but just a really brilliant way of portraying the drug, like something that you can't work around that mixes up your understanding of reality. Then I saw the movie again and wasn't quite as blown away. Still if I ever make a movie and have a tripping scene I'll make it appear as though the projector, dvd player or whatever was having problems. Of course that would mean a new version of the scene for each release but I think it'd be worth it.Originally posted by monolith94
SLC Punk! comes as close as I've seen a movie come to it.

fear and loathing in Las Vegas.
I only watched it because it had Las Vegas in the title. What the hell was this movie about? It seemed to have no plot, nothing ever happened. I hated it. This is the only time I was tempted to walk out of a movie (but I didn't because I'm cheap and like to get my money's worth).
but I do recommend Dazed and Confused. It's more of a movie about the 70's than of drugs. But you can't have the 70's without a lot of pot smoking.
And Up in Smoke with Cheech and Chong was good. Chech and Chong's the next movie was also pretty decent. I didn't care for the others as much. Though the amsterdam one had it's moments.Comment
