Anyone else laugh hard during the car wash scene?


I think I laughed the hardest at this unexpected part. It felt like it belonged in a different movie. Moon didn't really act like this before, so to see him in a speedo with his sheep friend washing cars with their bodies made me laugh loud! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…

Oh it was hilarious! Though I don't know why they used the opera song. Was that referencing something?

Same XD everyone at the movies cracked up laughing

My theater was in hysterics at that part.

I didn't understand the use of opera there either. It was Puccini's Nessun Dorma.
My guess is that it ties this moment to Buster's dad, who used to wash cars all his life, but found time to bring little Buster to the theater to appreciate opera and other classy stage performances.

On Youtube there is a clip of this scene, and I noticed the sheep doing "stripper-like moves" on the car when drying it. Some animator must've snuck that in for fun. πŸ˜‚
