Danny - Accidental Comedic Genius

Man, Danny has the best lines in this film. Never has a fictional character accidentally made me laugh so much in a martial arts film (except perhaps nearly every character in the Thundering Mantis). Here are some of my favourite Danny moments, feel free to add any others you can think of.

"Great moves Keung, you're number one!"

"These are my sister's diamonds. Owwww!" (See unintended humour thread for an extended description)

[Describing his sister to Keung] "She's pretty! {crosses his eyes and raises his eyebrows}"

"No! My cushion!"

Hes up there in the all-time asian comedy level with that asian kid from "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom".

[–] tkecornellboss 20 years ago

That asian kid from Indy Jones was in my taekwondo class when i was in high school. I sparred him maybe 2 times but he was still intermediate level. I couldn't tell that he was THE asian kid cuz he did look older (about 5 years after the movie was filmed). I think he's a working stunt man now.

There's this part (supposed to be emotional, but turns out funny) when Danny describes how other sisters take their little brothers to the beach (or park) or something like that...

And I kept thinking, "No they don't!"

LMAO! I couldn't agree MORE!! I laughed at Danny's character so much I had tears streaming down my face. Nice way of saying it, too. 'Accidental comedic genius'

When there is no more room in Hell, the dead shall walk the Earth.

THUG-"you call these diamonds?"
Danny-"those are my sisters diamonds"
(THUG throws crap diamonds softly at Danny)
Danny-"Owwww"

a lot of it has to do with the dubbing (i think his voice was dubbed)

and that's why canada has snowballs, and we have the H-bomb

Hehe. I thought it was really funny that Danny, a disabled child who has just been beaten up and thrown into the corner of a room, when asked 'Are you Ok' answered 'Yeah, I'm fine!' and then proceeded to thrown a football helmet and wrench to Jacki Chan (and why would his siter have those things in the corner of her bedroom anyway??) lmao. Good film

I thought I was the only one who though Danny was a comedy genius.

Kian you're number one, is a phenomenal piece of comedy

[–] rorz999 17 years ago

"I wish my legs were like other kids'" - should be emotional, but the dubbed delivery had me crying with laughter!

[–] Diapertime 17 years ago

i love how he's always bitchin about his cushion

I am the game, you don't want to play me.

[–] amkst44 17 years ago

like the other guy said, it's the overdubbing the makes it sound like that. that doesn't make it any less funny though.

"tomorrow. tomorrow. always tomorrow."

I thought i was the only one who saw this comedic gem,
Am not alone...

[–] doctorbeepers 15 years ago

haha same. I was watching this with a friend and he was giving me crap about laughing at a disabled kid! NO MY CUSHION!!!

[–] AnotherSchmoe 15 years ago

Danny was freakin' amazing in this movie. The asian kid AND the kid who dubbed him both should've won Oscars, no kidding. I loved every minute of this movie, Danny and all, rofl. Has me cracking up just thinking about it. xD
