Well, we can like or dislike somebody's work without personaly knowing them or I could say that you can't like Katy Perry because U don't know her either...anyway, I'm just really tired of this vapid pop culture been shoved down my throat! English is not my first language (I speak portuguese and spanish better, mind you), so excuse me for not having a great vocabulary. And I'm here for Kerouac and Walter Salles. On the road made me feel part of something, it changed the way I see myself. - @Monday, April 23, 2012 1:55 AM

When I was 11, I used to insult my little friends just like you did when I couldn't prove them wrong...and I'm not pursuing a song writer or a writer carreer like Katy Perry is. Well, what can I say, good lucky waching her cheesy/ex-husbund bashing/concert/biography/3D movie! - @Monday, April 23, 2012 12:42 AM

The most changeling adaptation ever... I wish the best, though the best won't be never good enough. "On the road", the book, is pure literature. - @Thursday, April 19, 2012 2:59 PM

Oh my god, is this movie really being publicized by Katy Perry and fans of Kristen Stewart? This is exactly what sent Kerouac into a depression, leading to alcoholism and his death. It's bloody horrible. At least I have the book and works of other Beat writers. That's really what it's all about. That will keep me living on this planet. - @Thursday, April 12, 2012 8:23 AM

Mykel Montes

Full agree. It might be a great film, but i don't believe it will capture what the book represented. - @Thursday, April 12, 2012 8:17 AM

Mykel Montes

True dat. Russell Brand was influenced by Kerouac. Thank Christ, he's no longer with her. I've really not been fond of his career since he sobered up and married her. - @Thursday, April 12, 2012 8:16 AM

Katy Perry was probably told about it by Russell Brand. I loved the book and philosophy of life but don't think the film will do it justice at all. - @Tuesday, April 10, 2012 7:22 PM

After hearing all this discussion about KP and OTR I've finally listened FIREWORK, the song supposedly inspired by Kerouac’s work. Well, I can see it in parts like ‘’Make them go oh, oh, oh’’ and ‘’Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed /So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road’’, but seriously, the lyric sucks! - @Sunday, March 18, 2012 10:33 PM

‘’After a hurricane comes a rainbow’’ and ‘’You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine/just own the night like the 4th of July’’ , LOL! It seems like it was written by a 13 year old. - @Sunday, March 18, 2012 10:32 PM

melemmott

FIREWORK is a poor song as Katy Perry is a poor singer. At least she is given OTR and Walter Salles some publicity. - @Sunday, March 18, 2012 10:31 PM

I read the book two years ago and it's one of those books that's good to read during the summer. Makes you apart of the journey with the characters and all their crazy adventures. I can't wait to see the film and how Garrett,Sam and Kristen will bring Dean,Sal and Marylou to life. - @Saturday, March 17, 2012 2:54 PM

and I shambled after as usual as I’ve been doing all my life after people that interest me, because the only people that interest me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing . . . but burn, burn, burn like roman candles across the night. - @Friday, March 16, 2012 3:41 PM

Jerome Walliser

@SeriouslyPissedOff WOW, another brilliant piece of prose from the moron. You write like a nincompoop and the insane irony of you defending Keouac (a man who COULD write) utterly escapes you. So rage on dude but being angry at Katy Perry for liking something you like is so misplaced. Oh, and keep using the words fuck and faggot. I mean for fuck's sake, are these the only words you know. - @Tuesday, March 13, 2012 12:21 AM

Oh dear God... Kerouac is my idol and On the Road the 2nd greatest book I ever read after his own Maggie Cassidy. If the mainstream ruins this and tweens start quoting the text on facebook I will weep - @Monday, March 12, 2012 5:00 PM

Jerome Walliser

@mysteryjesus & @SeriouslyPissedOff So you're all pissed off because Katy Perry likes On the Road. Instead of all your fuck you's and fuck off's why don't you just articulate. In Katy Perry's public persona, she is a bit of a pollyanna. Yes, Jack Kerouac would most likely HATE THAT but he doesn't need you to defend him. Maybe, Ms Perry is associating herself with Kerouac to gain street cred. If that's the case then WRITE BETTER. Your defending a great author stop writing like twelve year olds. - @Monday, March 12, 2012 4:51 PM

Jerome Walliser

@SeriouslyPissedOff What's wrong with you? Oh wait, I get it, you're seriously pissed off. Is this why you attack people so stupidly? Katy Perry is a singer and it takes talent and hard work to be a singer. She's not an author, or a composer or a lyricist and she doesn't claim to be. It's a dumb reason to hate someone especially if you yourself are not an author, or a composer or a lyricist. Self hate can be a bitch. - @Monday, March 12, 2012 4:18 PM

@jerrydem298 Ah, the Katy Perry troll strikes. You are exactly the same as Ms. Perry. Everything I say about her applies to you. Get away from this masterpiece! It doesn't concern you. You are not the right person for this kind of work. It doesn't want you, and neither do Kerouac's fans. FUCK OFF! - @Monday, March 12, 2012 3:16 PM

Skelet3n

@OyellOwBOY Yes you are. Just the fact that you are loudly proclaiming that Katy Perry brought you here proves your ignorance! Katy Perry is such a fake! She shouldn't be promoting this movie to make herself seem cool. That's the only reason she did it. She is not cool at all. She is a fake. She doesn't know shit. She can learn, but she hasn't. You don't fool us Katy Perry. Go listen to your crap records and leave the real stuff for the real appreciators of art. Pathetic. Bimbo. - @Monday, March 12, 2012 3:13 PM
