Movie Quote:
The vision dims and all that remains are memories. They take me back -back to the place where the black pump sucked guzzolene from the earth...And I remember the terrible battle we fought - the day we left that place forever...But, most of all, I remember the courage of a stranger, a road warrior called Max. To understand who he was you must go back to the last days of the old world ... when, for reasons long forgotten, two mighty warrior nations went to war ......and touched off a blaze which engulfed them all.
An attendant pulls down a sign which reads:
$7 / Gallon and replaces it with another sign:
AUTHORIZED VEHICLES ONLY
...For without fuel they were nothing. They had built a house of straw ...People stopped in the streets and listened: for the first time they
heard the sound of silence. Their world crumbled ...And only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive.
At last, the vermin had inherited the earth. And in this maelstrom of decay, ordinary men were battered and crushed...
This movie keep popping in my head as I was reading the posts.
