Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998) - "Kawasakis!"

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a 1998 cult fans favorite psychdelic comedy drug movie adapted from Hunter S. Thompson's 1971 novel of the same name.

One of my favorite scenes is when Duke is tripping hard and the fellow sports journalist comes by their hotel room, reeling off a bunch of bike names that he missed and Duke is cowering terrified for his life.

Lacerda : Too bad you guys missed the bikes checking in, oh MAN what a sight! Husquavarnas, Yamahas, DMZs... 

[Duke watching war footage on acid sees Lacerda turn into a Vietnam commando]  

Lacerda : Kawasakis! Maicos! Pursangs! Swedish Fireballs

[Returns to normal]  

Lacerda : ...a couple of Triumphs here and there, a CZ, all very, very fast. *Very*

[chuckles]  

Lacerda : What a race it's gonna be..

[laughs nervously while Duke and Gonzo just stare at him]  

Lacerda : I'm gonna let myself out...
