Taking the Reagan mask off was dramatic license.

Saw a bouncer one night in Muncie cold clock some fuck giving him lip. Two hits, punch and then hitting the ground.

Does Buseys character have some kind of telepathic ability to know exactly what someone was doing at a certain point in their lives?

Bodhi is basically wearing unpatterned Zubaz pants here.

Utah could have played on "she was my woman" to get Bodhi to give her up if they could get away.

Good death scene for Gary Busey.

Just think of all the drugs that wouldn't have been done if Busey actually died then.

I think one of the most unrealistic scenarios in the entire movie (and definitely don't read this until the movie is over if you haven't seen the end) is
[+] spoiler
Utah keeping his job as an FBI agent after this tremendous clusterfuck.

I'm gonna say the next action sequence, but this one is great.
So, you talking about the skydiving scene? Because I'll allow it, but you're still wrong.

Yeah, though I almost consider the two skydiving scenes together. Which isn't accurate, but still.

Bodhi not giving up the leverage when Utah asks him to let Tyler go is complete alpha establishing territory.

If Bodhi cancels the order to kill Tyler, does Utah jump after him with no chute? No fuckin' way.

It's gotta be hard to hold a gun while skydiving and harder still without a chute, right?

I mean, it feels almost like the studio tested it and the audience hated the end, so they tacked on the last scene.

Wonder if Keanu got to keep the Canadian tux from wardrobe, or if he brought it with him to the shoot.
