The Fledermaus pun is great, but I really like Trinity's "two cats" warning.[/color:post_uid0]

PointyHairedJedi 02-17-2004 03:45 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Perhaps it could be grafted onto another block? It doesn't really work all that well with the Doctor Who block, but I was too lazy to come up with another one to stick on the end of.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]The BSoD seems agreed upon... should we graft the Fledermaus?

[quote:post_uid0][b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] Hey, isn't that the cat that was here a minute ago?
[b:post_uid0]Trinity:[/b:post_uid0] Uh-oh. The cat's taking to long to load. There's a glitch in Matrix.
[b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] What's that mea-- Hey, why'd everything turn blue?

This is what I'd favor. There's also my Mouse scene (quoted by Scooter above, featuring "I repeat, [i:post_uid0]two cats[/i:post_uid0]"), or else maybe we should try coming up with more jokes for this scene.[/color:post_uid0]

Standback 02-18-2004 08:52 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Oh, also, we seemed to liked Gatac's, which doesn't overlap either the BSoD or the Mouse scene:
[quote:post_uid0]Agent Smith: It is a day so long in coming I am uncertain how to celebrate it.
Agent Brown: Perhaps...a quiet chuckle.
Agent Smith: Very well. Let us...chuckle.[/quote:post_uid0]
But I'm not certain where in the sequence this is supposed to fit in exactly. Gatac?[/color:post_uid0]

Gatac 02-19-2004 09:33 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hm. Difficult really. I usually try to do a block for every major scene, and this was "Agents walk in and look up the staircase". (Yeah, yeah, I'm longwinded.)

I'm not certain we can fit this here. Maybe we should save it for the interrogation of Morpheus.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]OK, here's a couple of thoughts on Mouse's death scene. Two variations on the same joke. Zeke, stop me if you want to hold fast to the three-day-blockwriting limit, but we seem to be at a standstill regarding this particular young rodent.

[quote:post_uid0][b:post_uid0]Cypher:[/b:post_uid0] So, hypothetically, if I were to kill off all the minor characters one by one - anyone in particular you'd like to see dead?
[b:post_uid0]All:[/b:post_uid0] [i:post_uid0]Mouse.[/i:post_uid0]
[b:post_uid0]Mouse:[/b:post_uid0] GAK![/quote:post_uid0]

or:

[quote:post_uid0][b:post_uid0]Cypher:[/b:post_uid0] So, hypothetically, if I were to kill off all the minor characters one by one - anybody wanna go first?
[b:post_uid0]Apoc:[/b:post_uid0] Not me.
[b:post_uid0]Switch:[/b:post_uid0] Not me.
[b:post_uid0]Dozer:[/b:post_uid0] Nu-uh.
[b:post_uid0]Mouse:[/b:post_uid0] GAK![/quote:post_uid0][/color:post_uid0]

Gatac 02-19-2004 03:05 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]First one. It's quick, dirty and to the point.

Gatac[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Neo: Whoa deja vu...
Trinity: What's deja vu?
Neo: It's a thing whare you think you've seen something twice but that's not inportint now. I just saw these cats.
Trinity: Red alert, Mouse - Neo saw two cats. I repeat, [i:post_uid0]two cats.[/i:post_uid0]
Mouse: Oh no! The door's walled shut!
Heavily Armed Agents: The door's on this side, stupid.[/color:post_uid0]

NeoMatrix 02-19-2004 10:29 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]We are in voting stage, but that is a good one anyway.[/color:post_uid0]

NAHTMMM 02-19-2004 11:13 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I believe that [i:post_uid0]was[/i:post_uid0] his vote. ;)

I dunno, I'm not too sure....oo :bigsmile:....*gets distracted*...anyway, I've not voted because I really don't know which one to vote for. There are a lot of good blocks so far, that's for sure :)[/color:post_uid0]

Zeke 02-20-2004 02:53 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I'm going to let this block go until I get back from my trip, which will be Sunday afternoon. (I know I said I'd stop it over a week ago, but it just hasn't seemed to be dying down.) At that point I'll definitely be calling a vote unless one has already been called.[/color:post_uid0]

NeoMatrix 02-25-2004 09:14 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well? What do we do now?[/color:post_uid0]

Standback 02-25-2004 09:44 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]We've got BSoD for the cat/deja vu scene. We need to vote on an independant Mouse block. None of the existing ones have enjoyed overwhelming support. Any forthcoming overwhelming support would be extremely welcome.

Go ahead. Any time you're ready.[/color:post_uid0]

dsbs 02-25-2004 09:53 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]hmm. Well, even if we aren't voting, I still enjoyed the die fladermous pun the most.[/color:post_uid0]

Zeke 02-25-2004 10:14 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]All right, heck with this. Anyone object to the following?

[b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] Hey, isn't that the cat that was here a minute ago?
[b:post_uid0]Trinity:[/b:post_uid0] Uh-oh. The cat's taking to long to load. There's a glitch in Matrix.
[b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] What's that mea-- Hey, why'd everything turn blue?
[b:post_uid0]Matrix:[/b:post_uid0] Fatal exception at 1337-a743f07r42.pirate.Nebuchadnezzer.link?id=Morpheus. Please reboot universe. Have a nice day.

[b:post_uid0]SWAT Guy:[/b:post_uid0] Die fledermaus!
[b:post_uid0]Mouse:[/b:post_uid0] Not the opera puns...! GAK![/color:post_uid0]

catalina_marina 02-25-2004 10:17 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Since I am in favor of that first scene, and don't really have an opinion on the second, no objection here.[/color:post_uid0]

Sa'ar Chasm 02-25-2004 10:30 PM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Do it, Rockapella.

*blank looks*

No objections.[/color:post_uid0]

Gatac 02-26-2004 01:16 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Second here. Lock and load it.

Gatac[/color:post_uid0]

NAHTMMM 02-26-2004 04:17 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Looks good to me. Except I don't know how (or if) they spelled it in the movie, but in the Bible it's "Nebuchadnezz[b:post_uid0]a[/b:post_uid0]r". ;)[/color:post_uid0]

taya17 02-26-2004 06:03 AM

[color=#000000:post_uid0]No objections from this side of the sanity fence. Go Zeke! ::ahem::[/color:post_uid0]
