I'm not entirely sure Keanu knew what was going on in this role but that's probably why it worked so well.
Try on A Scanner Darkly suit for size and nobody will know who you are.
Do your Haikuist.
The Rules
The first line of a haiku poem has five syllables.
The second line of a haiku poem has seven syllables.
The third, and final, line of a haiku poem has five syllables.
The Movie Haiku Contest (MHC) is open to every member of the FWFR site.
To enter, all you have to do is think of a Haiku for the current movie, then post into the current thread. Simple as that. Also, haikus may be risque, but nothing explicit please.
Only one entry per person as per The Blevins Rule. However, you are allowed to edit your existing entry until 9pm Tuesday FWFR time. *
Voting.
If you have entered the MHC, then you have to vote. If you do not vote, you'll lose 3 points from your total. This could mean the difference between the adoration and envy of your fellow Fwiffers or being the feckless butt of our jokes!
You do not have to enter an MHC to vote. Vote away. It'll be like a lurker vote!
---------------------------------
For each round, you get to vote for your three favourite MHC. The voting is as follows:
3 pts Stalean
2 pts Conan
1 pt Benj (Gotta get a jab in here at Benj on account he confessed that haikus aren't his thing. Stay tuned for "movie limericks.")
not
1) AC
2) GHcool
3) thefoxboy
As I will not know if AC gets 1 vote or AC is your favourite for 3 votes.
--------------------------------
You cannot vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner
You vote by sending the currently designated Haiku Meister your votes in a PM (Private Message) here.
You may vote only once.
When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced.
*After winners are announced, the floor is open for posting of alternate Movie Haikus under that topic heading.
The winner then gets to make an acceptance speech, and choose the movie for the next MHC contest. The winner will post the new movie as a new topic under Movie Haikus in this format:
Movie Haiku Contest: Movie Title
(Acknowledgement: FWTO after which these rules are modeled.)
Note for academic purists: I acknowedge that what we're doing here is not Haiku in its purest form.
Check FWFR time (assuming the server is in England?).
Thanks to Benj for giving Movie Haiku Contest its own folder under Games!

I have a theory about the missing gears, but it's just a theory ... |

Cool, glad you enjoyed it.
I loved the argument over the missing gears and Frecks' damnation.

I watched it, Bean-o, and I have to say that it was better than I had grown to expect. I actually watched the last half twice, too. Thanks!  |

Oooh, thanks everyone.   That's a nice wake-up prezzie.
I dedicate the victory to Mr Dick, 'cause he didn't get sufficient recognition in his lifetime.
I will consult the runes and the lists and getcha a new fil-um asap.

Clay and Sludge (how primordial!) get your heads out of that bag of Substance D and clear your heads enough to vote, no insects here.
Thanks for lurking MguyX, third time lucky? there is actually a point to the plot though you may not thank me for it!! |

Keanu Reeves is
most oddly animated.
Perhaps it's the drugs. |

New drugs and a suit,
Keanu: animated
self-caricature? |
