About 2mins. HMV is just down the centre from us.

Do have a copy at home, but that’s about an hour away

I’m working from home, I’ve got 3 options:

  • Get a train into town and go to Fopp - this pretty much guarantees me a copy, but will take longest (about half an hour)
  • Start looking in all the nearby charity shops - it’s not a certainty that it’ll be in one, but it’s pretty likely that I’d be able to find a copy in about 20 minutes maybe?
  • Maybe there’s a copy in the flat somewhere, could pull out some of the boxes under the bed and go through them, and look through some of the wallets with loose DVDs in them - if there is a copy then this should be the quickest way, but if not I’ll probably end up having made the flat really untidy, which is a course of action I’m unwilling to commit to

I’d pick option two.

There’s a charity shop 3 doors down from me so decent chance I could get a copy within 2 minutes

#13

On you go then.

Might check if they have it in stock during my lunch break. Not buying one though

Depends what means I am allowed to use.

There is an Amazon warehouse that I can get to in five minutes so I can enter with menaces and they are bound to have one. Not sure if they know where everything is though without an order.

However I have seen it before.

I already have it on DVD - it will be somewhere in the big wooden chest of DVDs I’m a foot or so from right now

does that count? There is a 2nd hand DVD shop about a 15/ 20 minute walk away from me if I have to buy another copy

Get a full Ocean’s 11-style heist going on, where you plan to rob a copy of the Matrix on DVD from the Amazon warehouse. Get someone on the inside, an explosives guy, a computer hacker, all of that stuff.

Maybe we should set this as a challenge (like that coffee drinking challenge). Agree a time; agree that we won’t do any prior research; and then GO! In search of The Matrix

Right now, I’m in an office staring at a black screen with green text.

Hmm. I think it’d take me roughly half an hour, given that I’d have to get to the shopping centre up the road and search through all the budget DVDs.

That image of Balonz double wielding electric toothbrushes is going to give me nightmares.
