Hey, great subject. Here's one of mine. I particularly like this one, because it took several viewings before I finally got the joke.
Hezekiah is about to be tortured in Baron Von Schtup's castle. This causes Maggie to rush up and put herself between Hezekiah and the guy with the hot iron, and she says:
"You harm one hair on his head and you'll answer to Teddy Roosevelt and the people of the United States."
Maggie then starts singing "My country 'tis of thee," and Hezekiah joins in, causing the Baron to call the whole thing off in disgust.
It's kind of an intense moment, so it's easy to miss the joke. Hezekiah is as bald as an egg.
I'll mention one that's already been mentioned here. But it's worth re-stating, because -- again -- it took me a while to get it, but when I did I thought it was hilarious.
Max and the Professor are driving along with the Hannibal 8 suffers a breakdown. A fire breaks out. Max gets out a fire extinquisher, while the Professor goes under the car to get to the source of the problem. Max discharges the fire extinguisher into the top of the car, and of course, the form douses the Professor, and blinds him in the process.
Max: "Don't worry, Professor, I think we got it in time"
Fate: (Standing up, still blinded by the foam) WHEREEEEE AAAAREEEE YOUUUUU!!!!!!
Max: (Realizing he goofed) "To your right!"
It was during my upteenth viewing of this picture that I thought to "mentally" put myself in Fate's place on the screen, and it hit me that "No he's not. Max is to Fate's left."
Fate: Max, you idiot!
