** The moment with Dark Helmet's dolls. Creator/RickMoranis was handed the figures a few moments before the cameras rolled and told to [[HarpoDoesSomethingFunny do something funny]].
** Moranis also came up with the idea to deepen his voice Creator/JamesEarlJones-style every time he closed his helmet. This became HilariousInHindsight as he actually sounds a lot closer to Creator/DavidProwse, whose voice was considered too silly and resulted in Jones being brought in to dub him.
