Mopi/Transcript

This following is the transcript for the 2005 animated film, Mopi.
== Part 1 ==
*(Shows Walt Disney Pictures logo. After the logo is completed, it turns into the sun and the camera pans into the establishing shot of a city skyline at the morning)
*Narrator: Now believe it or not, and I've been known to lie, but this here's a true story. (The camera pans down to shown Mopi sitting in the street.) Now, the desire for food sometimes make strange bedfellers.
*(The camera closes in on Mopi, both looking tired and hungry. His stomach growl loudly)
*Narrator: And that's where Mopi Wrom come in.
*(Mopi turns to the camera, incensed at the mispronunciation of his name)
*Mopi: That's Worm, you idiot, not 'Wrom'!
*Text: Walt Disney Pictures presents
*Text: A Hyperion Pictures production
*(The movie's logo appears)
*Narrator: Worms against the pigeons...
*(Another painting appears, showing Mopi and the pigeon named Bruce standing on a tree stump in front of a large man with trees on his head and an arrow pointing to him that says "War." Mopi and Freddie are smiling and shaking hands, which angers the man)
*Narrator: ...have united in the face of war. (Mopi and the other worms are shown sweating and staring transfixed at a waving apple) Now, the Bad Boy was just a-gnawing at their bellies.
*(The Bad Boy, an unnamed human boy holding a swatter, chews on the apple and scares Mopi and the worms using his evil face. It cuts to Mopi, Freddie and the other worms in the park, looking excited as two apples land in front of them)
*Narrator: Why, heck, even a dad-gum crust of apple could look mighty appetizing. (Mopi and the other worms peck at the bread like pigeons and chew it. A hand taps Freddie's shoulder. He and Mopi turn to see who it is) 'Ceptin' o' course if it happened to be some other feller's lunch...
*(A large, burly pigeon named Malbert stands next to them, beating a blackjack against his palm and looking angry. Mopi and the other worms tremble in fear)
*Narrator: ...And old man pigeon wasn't above to give up his meal.
*(Mopi and the worms relucantly stick out their tongues and the pigeon pecks the bread off of them. It cuts to the kingdom of Applewood)
*Narrator: Here in the kingdom of Applewood, every day's forecast is rainy with a 100% chance of nature. It wasn't always like this, though. Years ago, the house of the worms lived near the sunny land of farmers.
*(It cuts to a stormy night)
*Narrator: Until the mysterious storm clouds rolled in and never left. Here in the hole, the stormy night killed our worms, and our bugs became poor. And that's when King Malbert thought up a new way for us to make money to the pigeons, Bug Intentions.
*King Malbert: The kind that crush you, kill you, bring you back to life, then kill you again, way worse. WORSE!
*Bruce: Yes, brother! We invent them, and the world pays us not to unleash them.
*King Malbert (angrily): Oh, it's a great gig, especially if you're an bug killer, not a scientist.
*Bruce (angrily, arguing with King Malbert): Fame, fortune, a rent-free hole in the hills.
*King Malbert (angrily, arguing with Bruce): They get it all. They're the top of the heap.
*(Bruce flies away into the tree. Days later, Mercury, an unintelligent snake, who was apparently the narrator, works as the scientist, with Mopi)
*Mercury (angrily): Mopi! Pull the switch!
*Mopi: Yes, Master!
*Bruce: And the bottom of the hole? Those are the poor worms like me, raised in the hole, worms.
*King Malbert: Actually, the worm's me.
*Bruce: Yes, Brother! Mopi! Pull the switch!
*Mopi: Yes, Master!
*Mercury: No, no, no, that's me, either. That's me. See? I look nothing like those other worms, much better-looking. Anyway, all worms are forced to serve Bug Scientists. Your life is a permanent graveyard shift, pigeon.
*Bruce: See?
*Mopi: But I never wanted to be an pigeon. I always wanted to be an worm and Bug Scientist.
