* [[AbsentMindedProfessor Sir Oliver]] is so absorbed in reading the newspaper article about himself that he doesn't even notice a bagpipe band approaching; the drum major that sees him has the band march around him.
* Sir Oliver and Alec's attempts at "conversation" with Gurtrude while trapped in the feather store house. And their reactions upon discovering her identity, as a duck.
-->'''Lindenbrook:''' A duck! ''[laughs]'' And I was about to try Latin.
* Oliver leading the others in ''morning'' the late Professor Goetabaug.
--> '''Oliver''': We'll observe one minute of silence in memory of a great scientist... Even if he was a blasted thief.
* Oliver and Alec are having trouble procuring appropriate supplies; the local marketplace has been largely emptied by fishermen going on their first major trip for the year. Hans manages to get them some rope, but they respond by asking him to get far more supplies -- which are available in Goteborg's room, but his furious wife refuses to let them have anything. Hans rolls his eyes, picks Oliver and Alec up under both arms, and literally carries them into the next room, glaring at them with an expression that screams "''TALK to her, darn it!''"
* Lindenbrook's quip after the group finds crumbling loaves of ancient bread in Atlantis.
--> '''Lindenbrook''': Stale bread. [[DeadpanSnarker We must speak to the baker]].
* How about coming across a field of giant mushrooms? Oliver and Alec even decide to do a little dance upon the discovery, just cause.
* One can't help but laugh when while some random woman asked Alec about his injures, she seemed to think she should be feeling sorrier for ''Jenny''. And never mind about the poor guy who's got the broken leg. If there isn't a misplaced sympathy trope, there should be.
-->'''Random Woman:''' Did you get your injuries when the volcano blew up, in the hot lava?\\
'''Alec:''' Oh no, no. It happened in Edinburgh at our wedding.\\
'''Jenny:''' He was in such a hurry leaving the church, he fell all the way down the steps.\\
'''Random Woman:''' You poor wee bride. After all that waiting. It's been no marriage for you at all.\\
'''Jenny:''' You underestimate Alec... ''[snogs him]''

'''Jenny:''' You underestimate Alec... ''[snogs him]''

[[AC:2008 Film]]

* The [[IFellForHours ridiculously long fall]] in the 2008 version. Screaming, followed by confusion, then a lengthy conversation about what's going on, before finally more screaming.
* One from the ending: after [[spoiler:escaping through Mount Vesuvius]], the heroes careen down into an old farmer's vineyard, wrecking his crops and trashing his house. He's understandably upset, until [[spoiler:Sean offers him a rather large diamond he took from the caves...]] prompting the old man to politely ask if they want to trash his house again for another one
