History Awesome / Fantozzi

* For years Riccardelli, the avant-garde cinema enthusiast among the bosses, had forced the employees and their families to go to the company's film club every saturday and suffer through avant-garde movies only he likes (in particular ''The Battleship Kotiomkin'', an 18 reels-long[[note]]At 15 minutes for silent reel, it's ''four hours and half''[[/note]] parody of ''Film/TheBattleshipPotemkin'') and then have everyone praise them, with special care of humiliating Fantozzi every time due him making him look like a fool in front of the other bosses by claiming he was a fellow enthusiast during the job interview. One night, however, Riccardelli makes a sudden summon on the same night [[SeriousBusiness Italy's association football team played a World Cup qualifier against England]]... And Fantozzi, in his most awesome moment, takes the word and in front of everyone declares "To me, ''The Battleship Kotiomkin'' is INCREDIBLE SHIT!". A 92 minutes standing ovation follows... And after that, [[TheDogBitesBack Fantozzi slaps Riccardelli into the waiting hands of the other employees and their families]] and leads them into burning his personal copy of the movie in front of him before forcing him to watch thrash movies for two days straight. All while Riccardelli is forced to kneel on chickpeas. Eventually the police intervenes and restores the status quo... But not only it was satisfying, Riccardelli copy of ''The Battleship Kotiomkin'' stayed burned... And it couldn't be replaced.

** [[{{Jerkass}} Fantozzi reacted with happiness at his uncle's passing]], as [[{{Greed}} said uncle was rich and he was the only heir]]. He thus burns his old and poor home that he doesn't need anymore and shows up at the funeral without even pretending to be sorry, then goes to a long haired man that he thinks is the lawyer to ask him for the documents to get his inheritance... But, in one of the finest examples of LaserGuidedKarma ever put to film, He only says "Lazarus. Rise up and walk". Cue Fantozzi getting punched and disinherited by his rich and formerly dead uncle.

* Crusader!Fantozzi got a crush for a princess whose father had offered her as a bride to the winner of a joust. His opponent is all but invincible, so what does Fantozzi do? Why, he comes in with ''Excalibur''. His enemy [[OhCrap realizes he's doomed]] when Fantozzi splits his sword ''from point to handle'', and is quickly forced on his knees begging for mercy.

** Fantozzi made the wheels-axle assembly though, as it shows up intact even in the far future.

* In one scene, Fantozzi has to organize a meeting with the building's inhabitants. The meeting immediately turns into a brawl with all seemingly polite people beating the crap out of each other (two men even throw a third one out of the window). [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass Fantozzi]], being clearly used to all these brutal "meetings", is able to fight and defend himself, and even ''chokeslams'' a person against the table.

* The prehistoric Fantozzi invented the wheel, complete with axle, and bow and arrows. Had it not been for Filini's stupidity he would have changed history then and there.
