Funniest Small part - Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994) Discussion

[–] Andi09 19 years ago

I really like Ace's reaction after Mr. Shickadance caughs and when he's doing James Bond à la Sean Connery! :D

But I agree, anyone will laugh at the thingy with the cello, it's so unnecessary and childish! lol

Oh I forgot about Ace 'Larry' doing his little dance after the touch-down at the mental institution! LOL

The whole mental institution scene is an absolute cack...
"Im open! Im open!! Over here!!!" - the touch down dance with all the oldies around.. his slow motion replay.. when he dives over hedge.. and when he slams his head into the bench, thats freaken funny!! even the doctor guy is trying not to laugh - ahahaha.

When he calls Melissa and she asks where he is:

"I'm in psychoville and Finkle's the Mayor. Then pretends to hang up on her. I love that line.

(Yo, can I make a point? lol)
I love the line when that 'roach is squished in front of him:
"Well, obviously, the motive was simple; the killer saw the size of its d1ck and became insanely jealous!"

PLUS...nobody's mentioned tha whole 'chasing after the rings' sequence!
That was funny as well, especially when he tries to arm-wrestle and ends up being FLUNG across the room!

Everything in this movie is my type of humor but I'll just randomly say when he's just chewing sunflower seeds up whole and putting chewed up chunks on the desk. He gets offered an ashtray to put them in and he replies "No thanks I don't smoke. It's a disgusting habit." while he has sunflower seed crap all over his teeth.

When Ace whips the car around to parallel park and quips, "Like a glove!" I can't tell you how many times I have said that ever since! hahahaha

Funniest part of the whole movie for me is when he's at the billionaire's party and he's in the bathroom. When he does that stupid sneaky monster walk or whatever across the room...I nearly die laughing every time.

One of my favorite miniscule things is in the beginning, after he pointlessly hides behind a huge leaf to get past the security window, he throws it into a pile of huge leaves, as if he's done it several times before.

Slightly off topic, but every time I watch the movie, after he falls into the shark tank and it cuts to Courtney Cox by the fish tank, I ALWAYS expect him to float past behind her. Or, at least I did when I first saw it. My logic is as follows "He fell into water. The next scene has water in it. He must be in that water."

And since the first time I've seen the movie many years ago, I do the soundproof sliding glass door bit at least a couple time a year.

Lol one of my favourite parts that's not really 'big' is when Courtney Cox says to ace 'Don't do anything to embarass me' and he says 'What like this?...' and does all these stupid little faces and dances. He looks so comical. Only Carrey could pull that off. Like he has no shame.

Yes I can't believe that is the first time someone mentioned Mrs. Finkle... She says "Dan Marino should die of gonorrheah and rot in hell. Would you like a cookie?" And she says it all in such a sweet little old lady voice. "Oh look! Little footballs!" "Laces Out!" she replies. Hilarious.

The other part of that scene that I love is when Mr. Finkle tells Ace "Ray ain't comin home" Reminds me alot of one of my neighbors!

I like the time he uses a fern to sneak past his landlord's window before throwing onto a pile of used ferns, the time Lois asks "What's the point, Ventura?!", when she commands the police to "Get him outta here!", the look he shoots Ron when he says "Look, honey, there's the hors d'euvres." and, last, but certainly not least, "See that you do. Had I been drinking out of the toilet, I might have been killed." BTW, did anyone notice the look on the doorman's face as Ace and Melissa are leaving Ron's soiree? You can tell he's trying not to laugh.

Edit: I also love the thing Ace does with his head when he says "Roger Podacter didn't commit suicide. He was murdered."

I find the funniest small part is when the big kidnapper goes "WHERE THE HELLS THE SMELT?" funny in itself, but then ace drops a bucket on his head, jumps down and says "Hmmmmm Unconcious...exactly as i planned!" Its so random and makes me laugh everytime.

Also at the end when he beats up the bird and the guy says "Yeah? Blow Me" and then when Ace beats him up he gives him a little left hand slap in the face before going the right, for some reason, hilarious.

reply

[–] nerdbomber 18 years ago

countless small, funny parts, just like in dumb and dumber:

whenever he does that dog snarl/bark thing he does, like after he bites the guys hand, hillarious

just his sarcastic remarks, like when theyre looking at the dolphins picture and cox says you do know who finkle is dont you? and its just how he goes "noooooo" i love that part

also in thats scene, "who the hell is that? that, who the hell is that?"

at the rich party when he goes into the bathroom and he glances at the bathroom mirror, notices a little pimple and pops it, hen wipes it off, thats classic to me.

classic movie, jim carrey is genius in it.

Okay....you're all going to be sorry....this is my favorite movie......some of these may have been already mentioned...

**When he is the HDS guy and he is mutilating the package

**The little stuffed dog he leaves that says 'You've been had by Ace Ventura Pet Detective'

**Mr Shickadance: Never mind the wisecracks Ventura (cough)(cough) you owe me rent. The look on Ace's face when he coughs on him is priceless!!

**When he is trying to figure out how Finkle and Einhorn are working together his little dog come us to him for food and he says : What do you want? HUH? I have to have money to buy food, I have to get the dolphin to get money....I don't SEE a dolphin around here, DO YOU?

**Camp: I'm terribly sorry Mr Ace, I'll have the plumbing checked immedeately.
Ace: Be sure that you do! If I'd been drinking out of the toilet I might have been killed.

**Why don't you cry about it, saddlebags!

****Okay last one...I'm tired...

Ray's Mom: It was all that Dan Marino's fault. Everyone knows that. Dan Marino should die of gonnorhea and rot in hell. Would you like a cookie son?

I love how protective she is of her son, totally oblivious to his many obvious problems. Like when she shows Ray's bedroom to Ace for the first time as he gasps, she concurs by saying "What a sports nut, huh?" (when Ace is surely thinking 'What a nut. Period.'

How about the part when Ace is looking for the ring, and he's in the urinal next to that big guy and Ace gets cauht looking down at the dudes hand which just so happens to be on the guys "member". The guys face and the little sneak he does afterwards is great

I completely agree with all of the previous parts that have been mentioned; every one of them makes me crack up. Personally, I can not get enough of the scene where Ace and Melissa are at Ron's party and there are two things there that are my favorite "small" parts.

~The first is when Ace and Melissa leave Ron's mansion and Ron sticks out his arm to shake Ace's hand and Ace kisses it. For some reason, it's so random that it's funny to me.

~The other one that always makes me laugh is moments later when Ace is trying to get Ron's ring off the ground and attempts to trip him by swinging his wet blazer at Ron's legs. I love that part!

OK I can't believe that no one mentioned this part!the sex scene is by far the funniest scene to me! (although the whole movie makes me laugh!) BUT the part when the bird's head is going up and down like 8 times just had me in stitches! And
"Hi I'm looking for Ray Finkle! and a clean pair of shorts!"

LOL GOD I LUV THIS MOVIE!

[–] wrensalert 18 years ago

when ace visits einhorn to tell her about ray finkle

Ventura: oh I solved that pesky snowflake, marino, padakter case.
Einhorn: Ventura, I gotta go to the bathroom when I come back you better be gone.
Ventura: is it number one or number two?...I just wanna know how much time I have.

and

when ace is in his car after the crying game sequence chomping on an entire pack of gum, the look is classic, "your gun is digging into my hip, oh god" his quiver at the end is sooo funny.

and

I got a lineback who hasn't washed his jockstrap in two years cause he thinks flies are lucky
