Apart from <em>The Wild One</em> and <em>Easy Rider</em>, the genre's pretty much been left to b-movie types like Roger Corman, which is odd when you think of how it's such an obvious vehicle for explorations of the frontier/outlaw myth, as well as symbolising a broadly libertarian and anti-authoritarian idea of freedom.</div></blockquote> <br /> This is supposedly coming, but it seems to have been pushed back:<br /> <br /> http://www.firstshowing.net/2009/06/18/stephen-gaghan-adapting-hunter-s-thompsons-hells-angels/
