- Can't Un-Hear It: As with Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, it's easy to read Hunter S. Thompson in Johnny Depp's voice.
- Harsher in Hindsight: Any scene with Paul and Chenault becomes this in light of Amber Heard accusing Johnny Depp of abuse, leading to a bitter public divorce that touched off a libel trial in the UK and exposed Depp's financial problems. Some would say it's the other way around, and Amber Heard was the real abuser, but that doesn't make the scenes any better.
