YES!!! I have loved Benicio since the 90s but the good roles have dropped off (outside of collaborations with Soderbergh); if he could do this AND still do Scorcese's Silence, we've got a big comeback!! (He'll probably be edited out of Malick, I assume). I am not a multiple exclamation mark guy, but that just happened here.

Don't get "The Big Lebowski" comparisons. It's not a shaggy weed riff on Chandler like the Coens' film.

LOVE DEL TORO but wasnt Sancho, who wasnt shady but GOOFY like in his mid to late 20s, anyway thats how I read it, i remember Sancho being shushed like a kid after sportellos arrest and even when sportello calls sancho from the can, sancho in the middle of bong hits and and penetrating analyzation of cartoons. Not that this activity is limited to young folk but upon reading pychons text if I had to compare this character to a previous film character he would be like the jack nicolson from easy rider.

Del toro is amazing but isnt he just rehasing fear and loathing except that this is a bit more goofy
where as fear and loathing was off the wall warped excess this is stoned out goof shenanigans, bored to death with Coen bros bite and the cinematography of Michael chapman

speak of cinemotgraphy, that is the most exciting part of this movie, I hope he goes for a look altman in long goodbye, or in like a 70s de palma movie like obsession. I guess they call it soft focus, that jodie foster movie Foxes has the look of how I feel lighting should be for this movie, if that makes any sense

I liked this project better when it was called "The Big Lebowski"

WOW. He was really great in Savages (even though the film sucked). Looking forward to seeing who is cast as Shasta. I REALLY hope Charlize comes around to her senses and drops the stupid Seth McFarlene film and does this one instead. I'd be content with Amy Adams, Mulligan, or Felicity Jones as well. Hear that PTA? Please thy Oogle!
