* When Bug!Edgar is climbing to his saucer near the climax with Laurel in his grasp, whom he plans to eat on the way to his homeworld, she's quick to plea with him not to eat her, telling him things like she's "a goddess" worshipped by lots of people and that her kidnapping could lead to a war. Edgar, being [[VillainousGlutton Edgar]], simply tells "her majesty" a war would result in lots of food for him and his family of one-million members.

** After the Bug reveals himself and catches the galaxy while holding Laurel at gunpoint, the coroner is [[SkewedPriorities angrier about J misinterpreting her silent plead for help as flirting than the fact there's an intergalactic criminal holding her hostage.]]

* "I'm sorry. Was that your auntie?"

-->'''Edgar''': I go out, I work my butt off to make a living, all I want is to come home to a nice clean house with a nice fat steak on the table, but instead I get this. It looks like poison. [[HypocriticalHumor Don't you take that away, I'm eating that, damn it!]] It is poison, isn't it? I swear to God I would not be surprised if it was, the way you skulk around here like a dog that's been hit too much or ain't been hit enough, I can't make up my mind. You're useless, Beatrice. The only thing that pulls its weight around here is my goddamn truck!\\

* During J's introduction into the M.I.B, he's shown a screen of aliens disguised as humans under supervision (which includes celebrities, one of them being ''Creator/SylvesterStallone''). This makes him remember how, as a kid, he was convinced that a teacher he had back in elementary school was an alien in disguise--J's talking in jest of course, but then K reveals that the teacher in question ''is'' in fact an alien. J's reaction as they bring up her camera is priceless.

* On a meta level, the posters managed to get a lot of mileage out of the fact that the film's lead actors were literally named "Mr. Jones" and "Mr. Smith".

* During J's introduction into the M.I.B, he's shown a screen of aliens disguised as humans under supervision. Recounting that he always thought one of his grade-school teachers was an alien. He's just talking in jest of course...then K reveals she ''was'' an alien. His reaction as they bring up her camera is priceless.

* Edgar in the bug suit, full stop. No wonder a lot of people loved Creator/VincentDOnofrio's performance, convincing as a giant alien bug criminal trying very hard to contort himself in a smaller body.

-->''(Beatrice sits there, completely deadpan and slowly blinking.)''

* After interrogating a random merchant for information about where Earth's dead people are kept, Bug!Edgar knocks down a bunch of bug spray cans and swatters (I mean, [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes why wouldn't he?]]) and then takes one of the CDs he's selling.

--> "That's three for a dollar! Sir!

-->'''Jay''': Well, yeah, because he never appreciated you anyway. In fact, you know what? (points at Beatrice) [[PunctuatedForEmphasis You. Kicked. Him. Out.]] Alright? And now that he's gone, you're gonna do what he said, you're gonna go stay with your mother. Then you're gonna go into town, go over to Bloomingvale's and get yourself some new dresses, some new shoes, maybe find somewhere where you can get a facial. (looks around the house) Oh, and hire a decorator to come in here quick because, damn.

'''Bug''': [[ExactWords Your proposal]] [[ThreatBackfire is acceptable]]. ''[Sucks Edgar in]''

** Then there's Zed's statement to the others. "[[StealthInsult You're exactly what we've come to expect from years of government training.]]"

* Edgar in the bug suit, full stop. No wonder a lot of people loved Vincent D'Onofrio's performance, convincing as a giant alien bug criminal trying very hard to contort himself in a smaller body.

** Especially when Tommy Lee Jones starts {{corpsing}}.

** That's not even the half of it. Will Smith was at one point [[UpToEleven considered for the part of the]] ''[[UpToEleven Good Captain himself!]]''

* The scene in the first movie where Jay accidentally releases the alien super ball that caused the 1977 New York blackout in MIB HQ.

'''Edwards (sheepishly)''': [[ToughRoom Y'all ain't laughing though...]]

-->'''Police Inspector:''' Why didn't the other officers see either of these events.\\
'''Edwards:''' Well sir, most of the officers are a bit soggy around the midsection, which is why they were unable to catch up.\\

'''Beatrice''': I've never seen sugar do that.

** Then when Beatrice notices something is horribly wrong, as "Edgar"'s skin folds in on itself while he's drinking

'''Bug''': Oh, that? ''(yanks face back as inhumanly far as the loose skin will take it)'' Is that better?\\

* When trying to stop the Bug from escaping with the Galaxy, J tells him that the only way off the planet is to go through him. The Bug promptly punches in the face and knocks him aside.

* Laurel ultimately killing the Bug is simultaneously [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome epic]] and hilarious at the same time due to how casual it is.
