* After defeating the [[GiantFootOfStomping Hoodstomper]], Rayman takes control of the ridiculous machine and [[UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem turns it against the Hoodlums]]. There's a HammyAnnouncer voice commenting it like a sports competition as he does so.

* When the Magician declares, "RAYMAN TO THE RESCUE!" We cut to Rayman...just chilling in a hammock at the beach. Rayman just lazily gives a thumb's up. "No problem."

* This gem from near the end of the intro stage:
-->'''Murfy:''' Hey Rayman, I think we are almost at the end of the level!
-->'''Rayman:''' Really? [[DeadpanSnarker Maybe that's why there's this big "Exit" sign here]].
* Just like with its predecessor on the home consoles, a lot of the lines you get from the Teensies when you break them free from their Cages are pretty amusing. A few choice ones:
-->''"I have to go and return my socks, they're rented."''
-->''"[[ToiletHumor I have go and drop the kids off at the pool]]."''
-->''"I need to go and inspire today's youth."''
-->''"[[CuteAndPsycho I have to go and break something]]."''
* Globox gets PromotedToPlayable for certain levels in this game, which take place while he's possessed by André's spirit. He'll normally [[LovableCoward cower and run away in fear when he sees an enemy]], so how do you deal with them? André has him scarf down barrels of Plum Juice[[note]]Which [[CantHoldHisLiquor has a]] ''[[CantHoldHisLiquor very]]'' [[CantHoldHisLiquor intoxicating effect on him]][[/note]], causing Globox to instantly [[LiquidCourage "gain the courage"]] to beat them up. Who expected what essentially amounts to a drunken bar-brawler in a ''Rayman'' game?
* After a long and dangerous adventure that involves him being dragged across the world, possessed by the ghost of a deceased archnemesis and turned into a clone of Relux before [[BeatTheCurseOutOfHim being forcibly changed back]], what's the first thing Globox says after being revived? [[SkewedPriorities Wondering if he missed breakfast]].

** It's used even funnier at the end of the official trailer. It has the characters winding up their super attacks, ready to exchange blows, then Rayman lands the hit before anyone else, punching his friends into hot lava!

-->''(After describing the idyllic setting)'' Sorry folks, this apparently can't last.
-->''(After Mr. Dark throws off the world's balance)'' Troublesome, isn't it? And untidy, too.

* The Bad Ending of the Cave of Bad Dreams that you get from choosing the treasure over the medicine you need to save Clark surprisingly qualifies. [[spoiler:It suddenly cuts to a fat Rayman relaxing on his own private island surrounded by his gold with the words "THE END" up in the sky.]] The game then promptly cuts right back to the choice you made to get the bad end. Stands out as a very silly and funny "What if" ending in what is otherwise [[NightmareFuel one of the gloomiest levels in the game]], and [[MoodWhiplash the suddenness of the game cutting to it out of nowhere during a fairly serious moment]] and then immediately going back to that serious moment like nothing happened makes it even funnier.
