Actually Capt I wrote CaptPostMod at the Search for Author field and as for the keyword I wrote spoon.

Then I copy-pasted the link here but when you click on it, it doesn't direct you to the search results but to the search page. So just follow my steps and you'll find your post. The results are only 15 and some of them are from this topic.

That big red "or" on the search page always made me think you could only search by keyword or by author but not by both. Dang is that a life saver! Thanks th3 p4th!

Here's the thread I was talking about (it pretty much reiterates what was said on this thread)-- matrix-explained.com...

en.wikipedia.org...

From the 1996 draft:

Quote:

INT. TEMPLE OF ZION (MATRIX) - DAY The walls and floors are polished marble. Neo follows, his mouth agape. NEO What -- what happened? MORPHEUS This is the temple. It is a part of Zion's mainframe. It's hidden inside the Matrix so that we can access it. Two PRIESTESSES are waiting in the antechamber. PRIESTESS Hello, Morpheus. We've been expecting you. MORPHEUS Okay, you're on your own. Go with them. They take Neo by the arm, leading him down a hall into another room. PRIESTESS Wait here. Among the other Potentials. INT. ROOM OF POTENTIALS (MATRIX) - DAY Neo enters and finally understands the attention given to his age. The Potentials are all little children. The room feels at once like a Buddhist temple and a kindergarten class. The children's heads are either shaved or thick with dreadlocks. Some are playing, others meditating or practicing their gift. Neo watches a little girl levitate wooden alphabet blocks. A skinny BOY holds a SPOON which sways like a blade of grass as he bends it with his rnind. Neo crosses to him, sits. The Boy smiles as Neo picks up a spoon and tries to imitate him. Despite his best efforts, Neo cannot make it bend. SPOON BOY Your spoon does not bend because it is just that, a spoon. Mine bends because there is no spoon, just my mind. Neo watches as it curls into a knot. SPOON BOY Link yourself to the spoon. Become the spoon and bend yourself. Neo nods, again holding up his spoon. NEO There is no spoon. Right. He concentrates. The spoon begins to bend just as the Priestess touches his shoulder. PRIESTESS The Oracle will see you now. Spoon Boy smiles.

From the 1997 draft and 1998 shooting script:

Quote:

INT. ORACLE'S APARTMENT It seems particularly normal. PRIESTESS Make yourself at home, Morpheus. MORPHEUS Thank you. PRIESTESS Neo, come with me. She leads Neo down another hall and into what appears to be a family room. There is another woman in white sitting on a couch watching a soap opera. Scattered about the room are a half dozen children. Some of them are playing, others are deep in meditation. All of them exude a kind of Zen calm. PRIESTESS These are the other Potentials. You can wait here. Neo watches a little girl levitate wooden alphabet blocks. Closer to him, a SKINNY BOY with a shaved head holds a spoon which sways like a blade of grass. In front of him is a pile of spoons bent and twisted into knots. Neo crosses to him and sits. The boy smiles and hands Neo the spoon which is now perfectly straight. SPOON BOY (SKINNY BOY) Do not try to bend the spoon. That is impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth. NEO What truth? SPOON BOY That there is no spoon. Neo nods, staring at the spoon. NEO There is no spoon. SPOON BOY Then you will see that it is not the spoon that bends. It is only yourself. The entire room is reflected inside the spoon and as Neo stares into it, it slowly begins to bend until -- A hand touches his shoulder. PRIESTESS The Oracle will see you now. Spoon Boy smiles.
