History Funny / DaftPunk

-->'''Lauren:''' Have you ever thought about letting Iron Man join the band? Great mask. Party lifestyle. He'd be the perfect choice.
-->'''Thomas:''' Yeah, except he doesn't really play bass that well.

-->'''Thomas:''' So what do you want to do? ''Un café? Un thé? Chocolat?''
-->'''Guy-Manuel:''' Strip club.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6PGP0unSW0 A non-subtitled version]] of the video extends the gag, with the duo [[spoiler:eventually [[TheReveal taking off their helmets]], oblivious to the fact that the audience is still watching. HilarityEnsues.]]

-->'''Guy-Man''': (''casually'') "So our new album is supposed to ''really'' suck..."

* French comedians Michael Youn & Jamel Debbouze did a parody skit of "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" where the two get into an argument over the lyrics. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnCuPkBvZ-o Subtitled version here]].

* The beginning of Paul Williams' (one of the collaborators on the album) speech when accepting the Grammy for Random Access Memories:

* Daft Punk make a CreatorCameo in their anime film Anime/Interstella5555 at the music awards. They lose. To their own fictional band. Playing ''their'' music. Thomas happily applauds them, but Guy-Man (who wasn't overly enthusiastic about the nomination in the first place) has a "heartbreak" symbol flashing on his helmet.

* ''Music/PrimalScream [[http://www.thedaftclub.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-17561.html is playing on the Élysée Monmartre, spring 1994.]] Up front at the riot fence stands a stoned Guy-Manuel screaming. He emphasizes his chest so that the band will notice his Love shirt and when guitarist Throb waves in acknowledgment he screams even louder.''

* ''Random Access Fhqwhgads'', a semi-popular fan-made mashup album that mixes ''every single track'' from ''Random Access Memories'' with WebAnimation/HomestarRunner's "Everybody To The Limit." The result is [[http://djarique.bandcamp.com/album/random-access-fhqwhgads simultaneously hilarious and strangely fitting.]]

-->'''Thomas:''' ''[[LargeHam "LUMIEEEEE]][[IncrediblyLongNote EEEEEEEEERE!"]]''

** To specify, during the 2014 Grammys show, among the nominated for Album of the Year were Daft Punk's "Random Access Memories" and [[TaylorSwift Taylor Swift's "Red".]] A brief [[FeeFiFauxPas faux pas]] of a reaction from Taylor Swift was shown before the rest of the album's name was said.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xPOpnU4QkE This]] clip of them sitting around at the [=VMAs=] is oddly hilarious. Just something about seeing two robots in tuxedos among an unblinking audience is strangely amusing in an "[[Film/TheAvengers Avengers]] Shawarma Scene" kind of way.

** [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Look closely.]] One of the audience members is using their helmets as a mirror to fix her hair.

* During [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQmVdGvoQXk#t=119 this interview]] (starts at 2:02), while Thomas is describing the recording and distributing process[[note]]The duo aren't wearing their robot masks.[[/note]]. Rough translation:

* The bizarre music video of "Da Funk" from ''Music/{{Homework}}'' in which a man with a dog mask walks around at night, yet nobody ever asks him why is wearing it? It's an UnusuallyUninterestingSight for everybody.

* The ''Rolling Stone'' [[http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/daft-punk-all-hail-our-robot-overlords-20130521 interview]] had plenty. This conversation, for example:

* [[MemeticMutation And the Grammy goes to... ]][[TaylorSwift RRRRRRRRRR]][[BaitAndSwitch ANDOM ACCESS MEMORIES!]]

** "... shit products that break our balls, but not for long!"

* [[http://www.nme.com/news/daft-punk/70303 "I don't know EDM artists or the albums. At first I thought it was all just one guy, some DJ called EDM."]] Oh Guy-Manuel.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygmQ-KPS1-M This Adidas advertisement]] where Daft Punk appeared in [[Film/ANewHope Mos Eisley Cantina]] along with other celebrities.

-->''"From the moment we had a small home studio, well... ''I'' did the first disc, so ''I'' recorded the songs in my studio-- ''our'' studio-- then I burned them in good CD engraving studios in London. I printed flyers in France and I sold them to distributors in France, which send them to foreign distributors and then they send them to other distributors, and finally we can find our discs throughout the entire world."''
** It's not so much the process itself as it is [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Guy-Manuel glaring at Thomas]] as he (seemingly) takes the credit for the processes.

-->"Back when I was drinking and using I used to imagine things that weren't there and were frightening, then I got sober and two robots called me and asked me to make an album."

-->'''Thomas:''' Maybe it's just one guy called Eric David Morris.''
