    Dazed and Confused - the best movie without a plot ever.
    Cowardice is to run from the fear;
    Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
    Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
    But to hold the line anyway.

    Then I guess there is a thing on which we do disagree, my friend.

    Well, I don't mind. Let's get back to more important things in life, like pointless polls!

    I hope to see 'airplane' soon too.

    Airplane is a Hilarious movie , that is if we are talking about the same movie ( comedy )

    And really the Rock is not bad, good action movie , especially when there is nothing else on.
