Make a plan B too.
Man - it hasn't aged well at all.
The only thing that has really stood the ravages of time in the sound track.

Have to disagree. A panhead will never loose it's shine. Jack N is brilliant in this movie. And there is a message. You just have to watch it over and over to get it...

[Big Dave]

And there is a message.

Yeah - I saw the message - it read - there are better things to do that watch this old hoke.

Agree entirely Dave. I saw it in 1969 then bought a VHS video about 8 years ago and me and Mrs both couldn't believe how dated it was and it all seemed quite lame in modern times but sure the music was good.

Somebody will do a remake - and the whole original movie will be done in the first 20 minutes and then they'll pack the next 100 minutes with trendy overdone computer generated crap the looks like it uses the same techniques as CHIPS use to...

[Big Dave]

I'm suffering thread confusion.

Easy Rider was about a time. No more and no less. Good story, good acting never date................unless to those who can not see it.

Ahh..the youth of today. Life is not all about direct messages, fast food, quick fix, use and throw away. I recon that we are going in to a time when short concentration span is what will drive everything. If you need to sit through a whole movie, perhaps watch it more then once to find the message then it is on the scarp heap.

I enjoy watching Easy Rider again and again. But then I do have a thing for Panheads...

[The Lone Rider]

Never seen Easy Rider but it was on an online list I saw of top motorcycle movies/shows.

That thing with Ewan McGregor was on the the list as well.

I have heaps of American Chopper dvds though, if anyone wants me to "share" them
