Morpheus: The first one went back in time in a phone booth, the second on blew up in a bus, the third one was replaced, the fourth one lost his memory...

ost_uid0]^ NeoMatrix's scene is so far my favorite of the "five before you" scene, but I'm kind of leaning away from doing one at all since it wasn't actually in the movie.[/colorost_uid0]

ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]the name of the game is "Five Minute"[/quoteost_uid0]Yah I kinda thought the block was too long, but I was In a risk taking mood. Anyway I tried to edit it down a bit: Morpheus: Neo, I only can show you the door, you must walk through it. Neo: Why, Are you afraid of doors? Morpheus: Yes, the last time I opened one it had a balding agent on the other side Neo: Oh my God you’re crazy, What did the Oracle say to you to make you so crazy crazyman? Morpheus: She told me that I shall stop slapping people with fish. Spoon Boy: She told me there is no spoon. Trinity: She told me that I— Neo: Quiet, Trin. Can't you see the boy's telling me about his spoon? So Spoon boy can I have a spoon? Spoon Boy: There is no spoon. It’s simply an unconfused astroprojection of underling metaphors representing the power of will and Dillbert. Neo: I like shiny things… Spoon Boy: Just bend the stupid spoon already Kid! Neo: How? Spoon Boy: Use the forks, dummy. How’s that? better? worse? tell me. P.S. [quote ost_uid0]multiples *g*[/quoteost_uid0]Huh?[/color ost_uid0]

ost_uid0]I think it's better. It's certainly nice to have all those jokes right there for easy reference.  Looks like between this block and the last, we may need the standard version plus a handful of Alternate-Universe versions of this fiver, just to get all the good stuff in.  [/colorost_uid0]

ost_uid0]My take one the "use the forks" line:[b ost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] "There is no spoon"? What kind of deep meaning is that supposed to have?[b ost_uid0]Boy:[/bost_uid0] Use the forks, Neo.Ech. I'm trying to get the wording right. "You must learn to use the forks." "You must learn to use the power of the forks." "May the forks be with you." (That one, I'm thinking, would be good for the elevator scene.)[/color ost_uid0]

ost_uid0]^ *snirk* Â I can't resist that.[b ost_uid0]Boy:[/bost_uid0] You must realize the truth... there is no spoon.[b ost_uid0]Matrix:[/bost_uid0] Are there forks?[b ost_uid0]Boy:[/bost_uid0] Yes, Neo. Â The forks will be with you... always....but seriously now. Â (Relatively speaking, anyways.) It's a shame the scene about the five Ones isn't in the movie, because I find that variation on the MP "sank into the swamp" joke hilarious. Â But, it's not, so there. Â I actually like the version of the first scene where Neo wants to hear about the boy's spoon, but (a) it seems odd to follow that with a Spoon Boy scene and (b) it also seems odd for Neo to want to listen to the boy but not the others. I'd pick something along the lines of: [b ost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] So what did the Oracle tell you?[b ost_uid0]Morpheus:[/bost_uid0] I forgot most of it. I was eating the cookies she made.[b ost_uid0]Cypher:[/bost_uid0] She told me not to eat steak. Stupid Oracle.[b ost_uid0]Trinity:[/bost_uid0] She said that I--[b ost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] Hey, my favorite noodle house!I also like the "knifey-spooney" joke... which is why I used it in a fiver, so I find it a little old.

Neo: Why, Are you afraid of doors? Morpheus: Yes, the last one I opened had a balding agent on the other side. Neo: Ya like thatÂ’ll ever happen again. So Morpey What did the Oracle tell you? Morpheus: She told me that I shall stop slapping people with fish. And that I would find THE FIVE. Neo: you mean THE ONE. Morpheus: UmÂ… erÂ… umÂ… oh crap... *waves hand* Morpheus: You diden't hear that! btw have you met Spoon boy? Neo: Why do they call you spoon boy? Spoon Boy: I like Spoons. Neo: So Spoon boy can I have a spoon? Spoon Boy: There is no spoon. ItÂ’s simply an unconfused astroprojection of underling metaphors representing the power of will and Dillbert. Neo: I like shiny thingsÂ… Spoon Boy: Just bend the stupid spoon already, Kid! Neo: How? Spoon Boy: Use the forks, dummy. Neo: The Forks? Spoon boy: The Forks, they surround us and penetrate us with there sharp pointy-ness. Neo: Tell me, do they hurt? Spoon boy: That would ruin the surpriseÂ…[/color ost_uid0]
