We have a winner! I love that bit in the movie - the bathrobe, the crashing waves, the HUGE phone. He's got it all! And yet...!

Reminds me of the time in Grade 10 business class (definitely in the top 3 stupidest classes in my school experience) when we, on the last day, watched Wall Street, as to learn about business ethics, but we ran out of time and the class was dismissed only just as Charlie Sheen was about to get arrested.

mehlt, Sunday, 12 August 2007 17:30 (eighteen years ago)

Alright, maybe I lied, and we watched until he encountered the police, and was obviously about to get arrested, but still it's a funny scenario to think about.
