Do you think the matrix could be written in lisp?

Unfortunately the movie industry has made very little real progress in
adopting formal methods, and movie scripts are often written in vaguely
specified and ambiguous languages, instead of a formalized language with
a mathematically defined semantics as would be optimal. There are also
spurious complaints about dialogue being difficult for humans to
understand if presented in prefix notation. Hopefully in a few decades
we will begin to see more and more movies based on a sound mathematical
and theoretical foundation.
