"The End? Why, that's my favorite Doors song," said James Horner."Why, it's mine too," said Goldsmith.
"Same here," said Williams.
"Goes for me too," said Sean Connery. "I was actually whistling it during breaks in the filming of You Only Live Twice. Made everyone think I was hip."
Soon, everyone was agreeing, that this was their favorite Doors song. Even Mel Gibson, cowering over in a corner of the sound stage out of fear of getting ponytail lashed piped up and said he liked it too.
"Why, what an opportunity this is," said Horner. "We have all these choirs here...Jerry's, Basil's, the Ewoks, all these composers, even metal eating spiders. We should all sing this wonderful Jim Morrison composition together!"
Soon, a chorus of voices that dwarfed even Michael Jackson's "We Are the World" were singing "The End" by the Doors. And what a wonderful sound it was.
Meanwhile, in another part of the city, The Directors sat around a conference table in the bowels of an extinct volcano, plotting their next move. Spielberg surveyed all that he controlled (except Bill Gates) and said...

Rosie O'Donnel rips through the door and rants of "Evil guns and the works of Lucifer!" while feasting on dead rabbits. Then asking Steven to join her in the A.W.A.B.O.H. action league, standing for ANTI WEAPON ACTION BRIGADE OVER HOLLYWOOD...but just as Steven tried to answer, MOSES himself aka Heston breaks through the roof and...

"ROSIE O'DONNEL IS MADE OF PEEEOPLE!!!!" He screams and after more perdictable shouts of quotes from various well-known and parodied movies he was in, he pulls out a bazooka and fires recklessly.The resulting explosions destroys O'Donnel and her magazine, which no one really cares all that much about, and sends Heston into Canada, where he can find no way out. Speilberg, also fired into the air by the explosions, is flung to....

the Korova Milkbar. There was Alex, and his three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie and Dim. They sat there drinking milk-plus, trying to make up their razudoks what to do with the evening. This would sharpen them up and get them ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.Spielberg landed next to them. "Veddy well, veddy well," said Alex. "Who's this, then, this globby bottle of cheap stinking chip oil who makes children's movies?"
Just then, Stanley Kubrick stepped out from behind the camera and approached Spielberg. "Just ignore them," he said, "they're harmless. I hear you want to make one of my movies. Let's head over to the set for the War Room and talk about it. Oh, and mind the cream pie mess on the set over there."
Kubrick led the way, stopping only briefly to...

"Wha...? I didn't decide to end this..." Kubrick said to himself, "There must be another power at work..."And from above, came Brian DePalma!

"Don't worry Stanley!" DePalma shouts. "I can take whatever you have made great and remake it worse!""Yes!" cried one of the Horners. "You remake it, and I'll write some old - er, I mean new - music for it! It'll sell trillions!!!!"
Stanley screams to Spielberg, "Stop him Steven! Use your power!" And Spielberg turns and...

Beckons to the Ponytail Brothers, Sean and Jerry, and says "smack DePalma and the Horners' silly with your ponytails."And the Ponytail Brothers begin to whip their ponytails around and around, coming closer and closer to DePalma and the Horners'. DePalma screamed in fright, much like most of the critics when they first viewed Mission:Impossible. The Horner's gurgled in fear, much like Prokofiev does whenever he's plagarized by Horners. They both began backing toward Alex and his Droogs.
Suddenly...

...Alex stands up, reaches out with both hands and GRABS the ponytails, causing Jerry & Sean to knock their skulls together.
They fall to the floor, circles of stars and tweety birds dancing in their heads.
Alex shouts, "I am not ALEX! I am Herbert George Wells, and I have travelled backward in time to relive this moment! Now I must return to my laboratory in my Time Machine!"
Wells hops into his Time Machine, but is pushed out of his seat by...ROD TAYLOR!
"WHO are you?" Wells asks, "And what are you doing with MY Time Machine?"
"My name is Rod Taylor, and I'm the ORIGINAL H. G. Wells! YOU are Malcolm McDowell, and you happen to be a cheap imitation! Why, you've never even seen a Morlock! So get out of my machine! I've got a date with Weena!"
Taylor pushes the lever forward and with a great display of lighting, sound and visual effects...vanishes.
Malcolm sits there on the floor, dazed.
Just then, Jerry and Sean both awaken, and...

Garcia thrusts the time machine lever forward, and Thaxton vanishes. He turns to Rozsa and says...

To which Rozsa replies, "If youz gotz da' pastrami and provolone, I gotz da' POUPON!
Garcia and Rozsa are about to make sandwiches when they hear an odd sound. They notice a large bearded man dragging something behind him. He's working very hard, so whatever the thing is, it's very heavy. And it's making a lot of loud noises. Garbled language, indiscernable grunts and wails and moans.
"Who are you, and what are you carrying?" Rozsa asks.
"Name's Christopher, and I'm dragging this dying thread back up to the top of the heap to try and keep it alive! I could use some help!"
Garcia and Rozsa look at one another, and then back at Chris. "Naaaah!" They go back to contructing their sandwiches.
Soon the wild noises fade into the distance as Chris grows closer to the top of the message board.

Richard walking down the road enjoying the sounds of CMS master Eric Serra on his discman; suddenly Danny Elfman jumped out of the bushes, set him on fire and stole his onions (bringing this story full circle back to the very beginning in some sort of Planet of the Apes/Hasslein Curve time travel plot device)...[Message edited by Greg Bryant on 12-22-2000]

Chris looks back to find that Jerry Goldsmith now has a chainsaw attached to his right arm. Williams looks puzzled."Wait, the whole reason we were sent on this journey and eventually back in time is because this guy was burnt to a crisp and had his onions stolen by Danny Elfman..."
"Right..." Chris responds.
Williams continues. "...but Elfman just ran off when we arrived to attack that poor man and steal his onions."
"So..."
"So, it's the same Elfman!!!"
"Waitaminute..."
"Look, there would have to be two Elfmans there, since there's the Elfman from the past, and then the Elfman of the future!"
"Eh...so where did Elfman come in the first place?" Goldsmith comes foward and asks.
"What do you mean?"
"Well," Goldsmith begins. "That's the same Elfman that we took back in the past that attacked the guy. But what started this whole thing in the first place? It can't be Elfman since our traveling to the past caused him to go off and attack the guy. So what caused all of us to start going back in time in the first place?"
"Uh...er...but...Elfman..."
They all hold their heads in pain.
"Ow! Time travel makes my head hurt..." Williams whines.
"Well can't we stop it?" Chris asks.
"If we could, then wouldn't this loop have been over a long while ago?"
"But, how do we know how long this has been going on? It looks like it'll go for eternity..."
They all stand silent.
"Oh, screw this time travel paradox thing. Let's go bowling." Williams proclaims.
"Hey, I got this chainsaw arm thing, I have to use it for something." Goldsmith points out. "I can't let it go to waste...."

Then I woke up.
"Whew" I said.
"It was all a dream."Glancing at my bedside table, I saw my onions sitting like Private Ryan on the SPR poster, with I, Richard, peering over them like Tom Hanks on the same poster.
I got out of bed and got dressed.
That day, I was walking down the road, enjoying the sounds of CMS master Eric Serra on my discman, when Danny Elfman jumped out of the bushes, set me on fire and stole my onions...

And while Rich was thinking that Carter Burwell would be the only one that could save him, Jerry Goldsmith, with his chainsaw arm, was working part time as a trimmer of the city's trees."I could have went bowling man. Dang it, if scoring movies only paid more." Goldsmith says to himself. He then sees Elfman stealing Rich's onions and setting him on fire. "Oh, I see the Elfman's stealing that guy's onions. And to think Rich would be able to get away with a cop-out ending like a dream."
