Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help!

Unwikified, badly written article about a film. - Mike Rosoft 13:31, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

I believe "spun" actually refers to the psychological state of a user who has been tweaking for many days. Auditory and visual hallucination due to amphetamine psychosis. JP

Spun could also be one who is under the influence of methamphetamine -- Whenever I use speed, (usually smoking crystal meth) I consider myself spun, especially since I stay up for days on end (like the definition above). Though I smoke excessive amounts of meth, and pretty soon I might start injecting meth.

Just want to say that is not me, ^^, it's not tagged with a user's name unless it is also, "JP" anyway. Just a technicality, but "The movie is essentially about crystal methamphetamine addiction," should probably read, is about methamphetamine, or is about crystal meth. Because the word crystal is not part of the name of the drug but is instead merely part of slang, I think it should be dropped. the creation of the term crystal meth is that, methamphetamine as it is used in the recreational world is in its crystalline solid form, but the form does not change the drug, so saying crystal meth is not only extraneous but its not even correct nomenclature. Yet, for posterity's sake, I decided to discuss before alteration because I understand that the movie is more about crystal meth then it is about methamphetamine so perhaps the dropping of the crystal is incorrect.--71.192.43.187 04:42, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

You people need to develop some other interests. Maybe go for a walk outside? I would also say it would be best to leave the meth at home.

I added some additional content to this page, hopefully taking it out of the stub catagory. Its been a long time since I've seen this film so I couldn't give it a detailed plot. MoonKnight52 18:32, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
