"Do you pick up on this jive, this crazy music here man?"
My favorite scene in the film. I know people didn't exactly talk like that back then but I like to think they did...

Like man, they were bikers, but like, they were talkin' like jazz musicians or beatniks...or somethin'. Know what I mean, man?
Fun movie though.
yeah, i hated that scene...hated it..cringeworthy....first off, those were the sweetest kindest bikers EVER...paying for beers, coffee, food having chats with the cops and townsfolk..one guy on the way out of the bar knocks a beer over, he makes sure to pick it up so it doesn't spill...
but that scene where the director tries (way way too hard, mind you) to show how the bikers have a different language was horrible.
couldn't tell if they were trying to be beatniks, black, jazz musicians, or bikers or some hybrid of all of them at once
it is better to have a gun and not need it, than to need a gun and not have it
