** When Mark and Joanne dance, Joanne leads him at one point and he comments on how awkward it is to be the one led. Joanne then tells him to try it in heels as she dips him.

** For the final shot in the movie, it pans across the table. First is Collins and Angel dancing together, then Roger and Mimi kissing, then [[ThirdWheel Mark just absolutely rocking out on his own]] before finishing with Joanne and Maureen gazing into each other's eyes.

** Idina Menzel forgetting her lines created some funny parts: halfway through "La Vie Boheme", she forgets what to sing/say to Fredi Walker, so she goes "something, something, oh just kiss. We're close. (laughing)"

* One on a meta level. A fan joked on Twitter that she wanted to get a tattoo of Mark's line "mucho masturbation." Anthony Rapp liked the tweet, so the fan replied that she would ''actually do it'' if Anthony handwrote the line and took a picture of it for Twitter, so she can get it in his handwriting. ''So he did''. The replies to this have ranged from "ANTHONY NO" to "ANTHONY YES" to "ANTHONY ''WHY''?!"

** Even better in the movie, where he has a bunch of humorless high-corporate-types accompanying him. They all spend a minute reacting in utter shock before [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere abruptly leaving the bar]].



'''Roger and Mark:''' ''(look at each other)'' Evita! ''(reactions from Angel, Collins, Mark and Roger)''
*** In both the movie and stageplay, EVERYONE says "EVITA!" as if not just Collins, Angel, Mark and Roger knew about it and in some productions, a random cast member will bark!

** Tango: Maureen is just one big CMOF with a hint of Heartwarming--Mark predicts and correctly guesses every move Maureen as pulled on Joanne (as it happened to him multiple times before) and essentially gives her an ear to air her grievances.

* Towards the end of the stageplay, as Mark is preparing his projector and both him and Roger are celebrating Benny's wife pulling him away from anything having to with the East Village, the boys' power goes out again and they suspect she found out about Benny's affair with Mimi and wonder who told her and then Collins walks in, implying that ''he ratted Benny out''.

* In the movie: Mimi's reaction to Maureen and Joanne's fight in Take Me Or Leave Me - the only thing she was missing is a big box of popcorn!
* In the film, a bit of a Funny ''Foreground'' Moment during La Vie Boheme - when it gets to the word "bisexuals", Maureen jumps right into the frame and basically takes it all up (before moving to look at Angel for "men"). This is some really clever staging with a CallBack: the camera deliberately pans to Angel on the appropriate word, whereas Maureen has to actively put herself in front of it, a funny call back to the fact that everybody mistakenly calls her a lesbian.

** During I'll Cover You, Wilson James Heredia grabs and spins Jesse L. Martin quick enough for Jesse to shout "OH SHIT! I FORGOT HOW FAST YOU WERE!", causing almost everyone in the theater to break into laughter.
** Benny slapping Maureen's ass at the start of La Vie Boheme, instead of Maureen herself. This is completely {{OOC}}, and definitely because their actors (Creator/TayeDiggs and Creator/IdinaMenzel) had gotten married by this point.
