[color=#000000ost_uid0]Ech. We have trouble enough finding one joke for this scene, and you want two?

The hundred Agent joke is funnier, but as I prefer to keep it to one joke, and focusing on the Woman in Red, I think it's better to go with that one.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]But of course, if we leave out the Hundred Agent bit the part about the agents being the most dangerous things around (which was the take-home message of the scene) gets left out, doesn't it? :suspicious:[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Of course. But which of the two scenes from the original movie is more memorable? [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Don't worry, I'm still thinking. I'll have to vote for [bost_uid0]taya17[/bost_uid0]'s (insert Group Adaptive Story thread joke riiight about here).

I'd like to see [bost_uid0]Kira[/bost_uid0]'s last line in there too, but it would be awkward at best. I guess we can use the space saved by not including it for a different joke later.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]My vote goes with Kira, but this is just a funny one I thought of.

Morpheus: *insert Agent lecture here*
Neo: Wow, that is one hot woman.
Morpheus: Which one?
Neo:The one in the red....Oh crap, Agents.
Riker: Bridge to Captain Picard
Neo: Computer, Freeze Program. Yes No. One?
Riker: The Captain of the Nebuchadnezzar would like to speak with you.
Neo: I am on my way. Computer, End Program.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I guess the thing to do is for everyone to pick one of their scenes for vote, and we can put them all in one posting, then we can vote on one.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Thank you, catalina. I needed that.

It looks like everyone who's posted in this thread has voted, except for Zeke, Kira, and Arzosah. Zeke doesn't count because he's been gracious enough to let us have the fun with the creative decisions, so that leaves Arzosah (who posted on the first page) and Kira, plus anyone else out there who feels like jumping in before we decide we've reached a decision.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I don't think anyone else is going to vote, so let's put an end to this...

Kira's first scene seems popular, and so does 17's.
Do we combine them, pick one, or combine one with another scene?[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Okay, time to finish this. I think the best compromise is Kira's first scene followed by 17's:

[bost_uid0]Morpheus:[/bost_uid0] The most important thing about the Matrix, Neo, is to always be on your guard and never to be distracted by, say, extremely hot women in red dresses.
[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] Hey! Â How come she's wearing a dress this time?
(She morphs into an Agent)
[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] Gyaa!
[bost_uid0]Morpheus:[/bost_uid0] That's why.

[bost_uid0]Morpheus:[/bost_uid0] Agents are the most dangerous things here. But you don't have to worry about dealing with them, because you have the most powerful weapon in the history of this place in your arsenal.
[bost_uid0]Neo:[/bost_uid0] What?
[bost_uid0]Morpheus:[/bost_uid0] Your old movies.

And if that's not the best compromise... cry me a river. [/colorost_uid0]
