#71 of 100 Things About nOva: “I want to learn conversational French.” Here’s one of the reasons why.
I recently purchased The Matrix Reloaded on DVD, and for all the kung fu and special effects, one scene stood out to me. The scene where Trinity, Morpheus and Neo meet Merovingian, the man holding the Keymaker hosage.
The guy is hilarious! Pompous, flamboyant, sleazy- all the things I love in a villain. This is the line that busted my gut:
Merovingian: … Ch
So let me make sure I got this. U want to learn French so you can curse the kids out and make them think you are verbally sexing them ??!!??
French is one of the ‘sexy’ languages. Spanish is supposed to another one, but I personally put Spanish in the hard ‘as in rough sounding’ catagory along with German. But hey, what do I know?
I took French, and I’m embarassed to say, I knew half of that sentence.
Whoooo, such language! Mon dieu!
ha ha ha i cant believe that, it sounded so GOOD too..
Ah, Mon. Merovignian. Ce qu’il fait ici ficelle le long de beaucoup d’idiomes dans un mega-blasph
aww, mon petite nova! je peux vous enseigner les Fran
MON DIEU!
I knew he was swearing when he threw that out but I had no idea it was just a bunch of random shyt..LOL!! That was my favorite part of the movie. Funny you even mentioned it.
Anyway, I’m originally from Canada so I HAD to take french. Guess what?..I know not 1 word of it now. *lol*…you know why? cause I HATED IT!!! Shyts hard as hell to learn and backwards as fikk! I prolly hated it cause I was forced to take in in high school when all I cared about were boys and whether or not I could get away with skipping class that day. I love to hear it though…it’s the learning part I loathe.
