Well, I was talking with some of the people who are working on this project with me the other day and we came to the conclusion that we needed some funny things for the opening credits. We chose the one thing that offers endless resources to make fun of...pop culture. Here they are, the opening credit mini-parodies!
REINSTALLED
Parody of the "Thirst" Sprite commercials.
(An action figure of Morpheus, much like the Thirst action figure appears at a door)
(The doorbell rings)
(Matt answers the door)
Matt: What's up, Morph?
Morpheus: Hey. I thought I'd just check out your new house.
Matt: Sure, come on it.
(Switch to bedroom)
Matt: This is the bedroom.
Morpheus: Yeah, yeah, king size waterbed.
(Switch to the kitchen)
Matt: This is the kitchen.
Morpheus: Ok, sprite vending machine, whatever.
(Switch to ICC Integrated Command Center)
Matt: This is the Integrated Command Center
(A bunch of large monitors with information such as nuclear missile silos, and other military things are in a dark room, the ICC)
Morpheus: Yeah, yeah, hostile military take over of the world.
(Switch to living room)
Matt: This is the living room.
Morpheus: What?!? Oh no you didn't. You got the matrix trilogy on DVD to watch anytime you want?
Matt: Yep.
(Matt looks at Morpheus)
Matt: Morph? Morph? You need a tissue?
Morpheus: It's just so beautiful, man. Show 'em my motto.
(On the screen it says "Free Your Mind" in the same way that it would say "Obey Your Thirst" in the Sprite commercials.)
Morpheus: Can a free mind get a minute?
UNPLUGGED
(Morpheus is sitting in a chair in a room)
Morpheus: Hello, by now you all probably know who I am, but for those of you who don't, I am Morpheus. I just got back from a high level meeting from the suits over at Cursing Sailor and Wally Vision and we've all agreed that what lacks in this installment is suspense, drama, Academy Award winning performances, talent, so we decided to give you all of that in a super condensed, fun size, mini movie which is more suitable for your more active, fast paced life. Since a story is almost impossible in this short time, we've just changed up great scenes from many classic movies. Think of it this way, now you don't have to go rent those movies. You could spend you time better, like seeing this again. Ok, here we go.
(Screen fades)
(Morpheus is dressed like Marlin Brando from The Godfather)
(Morpheus is talking to Neo)
Morpheus: Neo, you here, today, on the day of my daughter's wedding and ask me to kill a man I do not know.
Neo: Yep.
Morpheus: Ok.
(Cut to Neo dressed as Spider Man)
Neo: With great power comes great responsibility.
(Morpheus breaks in with four flexible air-ducts taped to his back)
Morpheus: I am villain! Give me money so I can build a fusion reactor!
(Cut to Morpheus standing in the street)
Morpheus: It's made of people! Soylent Green is made of people! And so are people!...People!
(Cut to Neo and Agent Smith doing the lightsaber battle at Cloud City)
Agent Smith: Mr. Anderson, I mean...Luke...there is something you should know about me. I...am...your father!
Neo: No!!!!!
Agent Smith: Now I will cut off you hand for no good reason.
(Agent Smith cuts off Neo's hand)
(Cut to Neo and Morpheus playing themselves from the first Matrix except Neo is Morpheus and visa versa)
Neo: You have two choices, you take the blue pill, the story ends, you wake up in you bed and...Wait a minute...who wrote this crap? We already did this movie.
Morpheus: Are you...are you sure?
(Cut to Trinity on a large door floating on the ocean and Neo hanging on to it in the water)
Trinity: No Neo, don't die. You can't die.
Neo: Well, maybe if you moved over I could get on the door and we could both...
(Neo dies)
(Cut to Neo and Morpheus driving in a car)
Neo: You know in France they call it a Royal with cheese.
Morpheus: What do they call a Big Mac?
Neo: A Big Mac is still a Big Mac they just call it Le Big Mac.
Morpheus: Le Big Mac.
(Cut to Morpheus Driving a bus)
(Neo jumps on the bus)
Neo: Wait! If this bus goes under 50 miles per hour, it will explode!
Morpheus: Dear God. Wow, Neo, you do that part good. You should of been in this movie.
(Cut to Neo walking with a flashlight)
(Neo enters a public bathroom and finds Morpheus sitting on a toilet with a rifle)
Neo: Is that what I think it is?
Morpheus: Yep. Full metal jacket.
(Commander Locke enters)
Locke: What are you doing in my head?
Morpheus: This.

(Morpheus starts laughing uncontrollably)
(cut to Neo in a room)
Neo: Welcome to fight club. the first rule of fight club. We don't talk about fight club. Second rule of fight club, no outside food or drink.
(Cut to Trinity in the cockpit of a commercial airliner)
Trinity: I don't know what to do.
Morpheus: (over radio) Now listen, you've got to land that plane!
(Neo enters the cockpit)
Neo: I just wanted to tell you good luck and we're all counting on you.
(Cut to Morpheus and Neo sitting in a room)
Neo: So tell me what you see?
Morpheus: I see dead people...and you're dead.
