Weekend Discussion Thread: “Funny All By Itself” Movie Moments

Alert reader Joe writes (and by the way, keep those suggestions coming!):

On the “Overdrawn at the Memory Bank” topic, someone mentioned how unintentionally hilarious the line “Mom, my nuts?” was by itself.
I’d like to suggest a topic regarding unintentionally amusing lines in MSTed movies that didn’t require any “enhancement” from Mike/Joel and the Bots.
Example: The line “Get outta here YOU DISGUSTING WORRMMMMMM!!!!” from “Outlaw” was HYSTERICAL and it only got stunned giggles from the riffers. The line alone was funny enough.

A lot of these became stingers, of course.

I’d say one of the classics is the inexplicably rage-filled shop keeper from episode 702- THE BRUTE MAN. “Creeper! Creeper! Creeper! YOU give me the creeps!”

What’s your pick?

    The all time greatest built-in laugh moment is from Werewolf, Sam the Keeper’s wacky little song as he looks through the window with his gun: “Strange things a goin’, strange things a doin’…’round here.” Prompting Mike and the ‘bots to simply chuckle. :lol:

    No one mentioned “Your elusive as Robert Denby!” or the scenes with Abby watching the second half of the movie and saying offscreen “Go get ’em Sam! Give it the old college try!” from Riding with Death. For shame.
    My personal favorites – “Today is dedicated to Uranus” I love how that girl says it without a clue of what it sounds like and Reg Park’s expression of “should I tell her?” from Hercules and the Captive Woman.
    Also the Hitler Building and M&TBs reaction to it.
    Also how someone justs zaps into a scene from Girl with the Gold Boots.

    Really, really late, but Werewolf has to be the comic benchmark movie…Sam the Keeper, Natalie’s Euro-Slav-Hungar-O accent & “talent”, the Jeep girl ‘fleeing’, Yuri’s hair(…the Hell?), Joe Estevez, the list is endless.

    Moment wise might be stinger from Danger: Diabolik.

    I can’t believe I forgot a scene in “Invasion U.S.A.”, after the fat Russian soldier shoots the hero and then leers at the chick and says, “Now you are my woman!”

    I seriously had trouble breathing after Adam West’s (Zombie Nightmare’s), “Hey! This is a celebration. Hey! The case is over. Hey!”
    Even before the riffers started going
