Speed
KEANU REEVES and JEFF DANIELS run around a building wearing SWAT uniforms.
Keanu Reeves: We’re so good at playing dress up and pretending to be cops.
Jeff Daniels: Yes we are.
They rescue all the people trapped on the elevator and find DENNIS HOPPER who has DYNAMITE strapped to his chest. This is DRAMATIC.
Dennis Hopper: Pop quiz, hotshot: Terrorist gunman carrying a police hostage—
Keanu Reeves: Shut the fuck up and explode already.
DENNIS HOPPER runs away and EXPLODES.
KEANU REEVES sees a bus EXPLODE. This is very EXCITING. A phone rings.
Dennis Hopper: Did you see that? Wasn’t that an amazingCGI effect? I did that. Me.
Keanu Reeves: Whoa.
Dennis Hopper: Anyway, that’s gonna happen to another bus if I don’t get a salary of $3.7 million. Get going.
Keanu Reeves: Dude.
KEANU boards the BUS. To make the plot more interesting, the DRIVER is shot by a passenger.
Keanu Reeves: Whoa.
Sandra Bullock: Don’t worry, I’ll take the wheel because I’m great for a heroine.
Alan Ruck: Hi, I’m annoying as hell.
Sandra Bullock: Understatement of the year.
They crash into some shit and crash into some more shit and crash into some more shit for a while.
Scriptwriter: Jan? What should happen next in the plot?
Director Jan de Bont: The what now?
Joe Morton: Keanu, there’s a gap up ahead. Do you think you can get to the other side by making an impossible jump?
Keanu Reeves: I’m Keanu Reeves, bitch. Of course I can.
The BUS makes an impossible JUMP.
Sandra Bullock: Damn, you did it!
Keanu Reeves: Hell yeah, also, he can see you.
Sandra Bullock: What?
Keanu Reeves: There’s a camera right in front of you. We can create footage and play it on an infinite loop!
Sandra Bullock: Did…did you just try to be emotive there?
Keanu Reeves: I…I think I did.
Suddenly, the WORLD explodes!
MEANWHILE, Dennis Hopper praises himself and his brilliant scheme.
Dennis Hopper: Teehee, I’m so evil.
SANDRA BULLOCK drives the bus around in circles at an AIRPORT. JOE MORTON uses the signal from the BUS to make a tape of the inside and loop it. They rescue the passengers and the bus explodes!
Keanu Reeves: Yay, I’m so heroic!
Dennis Hopper: Blow me.
DENNIS HOPPER kidnaps SANDRA BULLOCK and runs into a subway. KEANU REEVES chases after him and Dennis goes crazy and shoots the roof of the train for some reason.
Dennis Hopper: This is for being a better actor than me, you bastard!
DENNIS HOPPER goes onto the top of the train and smacks KEANU around like a bitch.
Dennis Hopper: I’m smarter than you, Keanu. I’m smarter than you.
WHAP! DENNIS’ head gets blown off by a subway light.
KEANU REEVES derails the train and kisses SANDRA BULLOCK.
Sandra Bullock: Wow, you’re so heroic.
Keanu Reeves: I know, did you see the way I got smacked around by Dennis Hopper? That was awesome.
Sandra Bullock: Of course, if we crashed this thing and had some fatal injuries, that might make this ending a bit more dramatic.
Director Jan de Bont: More what?
