[color=#000000:post_uid0]Right, we all know what happens here. Neo goes to meet Morpheus and is picked up by Trinity and Switch, who remove the bug the Agents had planted in him. As I recall, there were several attempts at this block already, so try to remember them as best you can.
The script for this block is here.[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Here it is, as best as I can remember it:
Morpheus: Okay, let's try this again. Morpheus says to go to the bridge. Neo: Isn't this line bugged? Morpheus: Would I be stressing your importance so much if it were? ...[insert a line or four here where Neo decides he's leaving]... Trinity: You see that road? Neo, that road is your life. Neo: (insert some goofy, insulting interpretation here) Hey! You don't need to get all shirty. Trinity: Just for that, you have to lose yours. Neo: Are you intending to test my faith of the heart? *SCHLUP* Neo: Aahh! It's 'de bug! Trinity: I am so going to get you for that. I remembered the one phrase as "Are you [i:post_uid0]going[/i:post_uid0] to test my faith...", but I changed it here so it doesn't create an unintentional parallelism thingy with the last line. Maybe someone else could come up with a better verb to use in its place. (Come to think of it, maybe it was "intending" originally)[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]...[insert a line or four here where Neo decides he's leaving]...
[/quote:post_uid0] Switch: You have two options: stay or go. Keanu: I choose go. Switch: Yes! Pay up, Trinity. *contemplative pause* I should really go back to studying for my midterm. [quote:post_uid0]Neo: Aahh! It's 'de bug! Trinity: I am so going to get you for that.[/quote:post_uid0] And I'm going to get you for that. Nice pun.[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Thank you, but I didn't come up with that particular version. I'm not sure who did, might've been PHJ.
And I like your fill-in lines. :D[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]This is the version I best remember (and best like):
[quote:post_uid0]Morpheus: Okay, lets try another round. Morpheus says go wait under a shadowy bridge. Neo: Isn't this line bugged? Morpheus: Would I be stressing your vital importance so much if it were? Trinity: It's a long road, getting from there to here... Neo: Isn't it supposed to be the other way round? Anyway, I'm staying so you don't need to get all shirty. Trinity: Just for that, you have to lose yours. Neo: Are you gonna test my faith of the heart? *SCHKLOOP* Neo: Aahh! It's 'de bug! Trinity: You are so going to pay for that later.[/quote:post_uid0] And yes, that was one of mine (as was the 'shirty' pun). The other version I remember went something like this: [quote:post_uid0]Morpheus: Okay, lets try another round. Morpheus says go wait under a shadowy bridge. Neo: Isn't this line tapped? Morpheus: We'll take care of the debugging later... Trinity: See that road Neo? That's your life. Neo: (reads sign) Loser Street? Hey! Anyway, I'm staying so you don't need to get all shirty. Trinity: Just for that, you have to lose yours. Neo: Are you gonna test my faith of the heart? *SCHKLOOP* Neo: Trinity: [/quote:post_uid0] I forget what the last lines are for that one. Some variations on the 'street' lines are below, though the last one isn't quite right. [quote:post_uid0]Trinity: See that road Neo? That's your life. Neo: Wet and full of potholes? Hey! Anyway, I'm staying so you don't need to get all shirty.[/quote:post_uid0] [quote:post_uid0]Trinity: You've been down that road before, Neo. Neo: (reads sign) Maple and Fifth? Yeah, I have been down there before. Anyway, I'm staying so you don't need to get all shirty.[/quote:post_uid0][/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]And I like your fill-in lines. [/quote:post_uid0]
It wasn't until hours after I wrote tham that I realised they were rather derivative of one of Kira's fivers. It is very difficult to type from behind a cat.[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I dunno...I don't really like the 'shirty' pun, but the rest of it is great![/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Kira's called my attention to the fact that this was originally Block 6, not 7, and we'd already come up with a final version. Unfortunately, it wasn't included in MPQ's otherwise-lifesaving backup; we'll have to rediscover or replace it.[/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Actually, PHJ is closer to the correct version. I don't quite remember anything about waiting "under" a bridge, but that doesn't mean anything.
I would like to add one more variation and a minor nitpick on the road joke for consideration (though I think one of the two that PHJ mentioned was the one actually chosen, and I think I rather prefer PHJ's first one myself): [quote:post_uid0]Trinity: See that road Neo? [b:post_uid0]That road is[/b:post_uid0] your life. Neo: You mean that dark alley with all the litter and potholes? I don't like that one, how about that nice clean new-looking one over there instead? Anyway, I'm staying so you don't need to get all shirty.[/quote:post_uid0][/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]This was my favorite version, compiled from about half a dozen scenes:
[b:post_uid0]Morpheus:[/b:post_uid0] (over the phone) Let's try another round. Morpheus says to go to the shadowy bridge. [b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] Hey, how do you know my phone isn't tapped? [b:post_uid0]Morpheus:[/b:post_uid0] Why don't I stress your vital importance and find out? [b:post_uid0]Trinity:[/b:post_uid0] You've been down that road before, Neo. [b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] Have I? Where am I? [b:post_uid0]Trinity:[/b:post_uid0] Sigh. Corner of Maple and Fifth. [b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] Oh. Then yeah, I have been down that road before. [b:post_uid0]Trinity:[/b:post_uid0] And it's been a long road, getting from there to here. Now hold still. [b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] Are you going to test my faith of the heart? (Schkoop) [b:post_uid0]Neo:[/b:post_uid0] OW! Hey, now you guys are bugging me. [b:post_uid0]Switch:[/b:post_uid0] Actually, it's more like debugging.[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I like it! :D[/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Good, though I still like the "'de bug" joke.[/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I think the "Hey, now you guys are bugging me" line goes well with the similar line in the previous block.[/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I would like to see the 'de bug joke in there, but I can live with it if it isn't.[/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Personally, I don't care for the "Faith of the Heart" pun. But, I'm willing to go for it if everyone's in favor of it.
Otherwise, I like what Kira came up with :)[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0="Kira"]I think the "Hey, now you guys are bugging me" line goes well with the similar line in the previous block.[/quote:post_uid0]
I'm sorry, I just don't find "It's more like debugging" funny. I hadn't noticed that the "You guys are bugging me" was in both scenes. I guess it's okay; maybe someone could come up with a better line for Trinity (not me, though, since I don't think I could come up with anything.) EDIT: I wanted to amend my thought and say that I [u:post_uid0]did[/u:post_uid0] like the rest of the proposed block.[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, I will try to remember what mine said. I like the De-bug joke too. Its a keeper
Here it goes: Morpheus: Whats Up!! Neo: Whats Up!! Agent Smith: Whats Up!! Trinity: Neo, You've been down that road before Neo: Of course, its how I got to the bridge. Trinity: Yeah, now hold still. Neo: What are you doing to me? Trinity: Debugging you Neo: Will I be able to download more stuff afterwards? Trinity: Yes, but you will need a memory upgrade first. Neo: Where can I get one this time of night? Trinity: Morpheus has plenty of memory upgrade pills. Neo: Whoa[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]I like Kira's version.[/color:post_uid0]
|
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Well, we seem to be pretty much agreed on this scene.
Will the next block be up any time soon?[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]Thanks for reminding me; FBC had slipped my mind. If we're agreed on Block 7, I'll post 8 later today.[/color:post_uid0]
