Line #10 Funny/Antz


1	[[AnimationAgeGhetto This is essentially an animated Woody Allen movie]], so there's plenty of funny.
2	----
3	* So much of Z's dialogue.
4	--> '''Z:''' Lunatic at three o'clock.
5	--> '''Z:''' I'll have you know, I have it from a very reliable source...well, maybe a drunk raving source...
6	--> '''Z:''' Tunnel opening ceremony.
7	--> '''Z:''' Every worker in the colony is here!... Hey, wait a minute, that guy owes me money...
8	--> '''Z:''' Who the ''hell'' is [[UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln that?]] (when faced with a penny)
9	** When Z, disguised as a soldier, is introduced to Bala at a ceremony, he gives a sexy growl at her instead of the formal greetings he'd given to the Queen and Mandible. Keep in mind, this is ''Creator/WoodyAllen'' making a ''sexy growl''.
10	* "''Be'' the ball!"[[note]]Cue sarcastic moan from Z.[[/note]] (Because the wrecking ball is literally made of ants).
11	-->'''Z:''' Ow! (titters) This is just a lawsuit waiting to happen.
12	** At one point, he mentions that heights make him nauseous, prompting the ant below him to nervously say, "No!".
13	* Weaver voicing that there would be consequences for talking about impersonating a soldier and even listening to ants talking about impersonating a soldier. Cut to a wide shot of soldiers eavesdropping and immediately going back to sleep.
14	-->'''Weaver:''' Do you know how much trouble you can get into for even ''talking'' about impersonating a soldier? You can get in trouble just for ''listening'' to someone talking about impersonating a soldier! [[SeriousBusiness (cue the peeking ants hastily turning around to go back to sleep)]]
15	* The military chant that has lyrics such as [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic "We ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah]]/[[BlackComedy We slaughter termites just for fun, hurrah, hurrah!"]]
16	** When the general says, "I'm proud to send you into battle," Z goes into OhCrap mode:
17	--->'''Z:''' Into... I'm sorry, into ''battle''?!
18	* The signs the cheering ants hold up for Z:
19	** "WELCOME HOME, TROOP[[strike:S]]" with the ''S'' hastily crossed out.
20	** "ONE TO NOTHING, WE WIN!"
21	* Z's pathetic attempts at being a soldier ant. Highlights include him telling another soldier he'll get out soon since he's got a trial membership -- for the army.
22	** Later, he sums this up as, not looking death in the face and laughing, but "mak[ing] belittling comments and snicker[ing] behind death's back".
23	* The aphid beers are either this or {{squick}}. They even squirm wildly when you drink them.
24	* Some of Cutter's dialogue [[NarmCharm can be this]] thanks to his being voiced by Creator/ChristopherWalken.
25	* For some reason, Z being aghast watching Bala screaming as she passes by, stuck underneath a battleship-sized sneaker, is just hilarious.
26	* The grizzled veteran ant soldier Barbatus is a wellspring of BlackComedy:
27	-->'''Barbatus:''' ''[as Z picks up his still-living severed head]'' Be honest, kid. Am I hurt bad?
28	** Also, Z tells him he'll put him back in his body, and looks around to find nothing but dead bodies everywhere.
29	* The ants protest by singing, "[[Music/JohnLennon All we are saying, is give Z a chance!]]"
30	* The scene where Z is somehow mistaken for attempting to take Bala hostage while trying to hide behind her. The scene itself is pretty funny already, but when Z decides to roll with it, what does he do? ''Grabs a piece of food from a nearby serving tray and threatens her with it''. Given that he holds it pretty close to her mouth, it almost looks like he intends to force-feed her if nobody backs off.
31	-->'''Z:''' One more step and the princess gets it!
32	* When Z returns to the colony and tries to stop the flooding and telling the people to stop following orders blindly. He even asks the foreman if someone told him to jump off a bridge, would he do it? Z [[AnalogyBackfire groans in annoyance when the foreman actually starts thinking about it.]]
33	* At the beginning, Z is talking to TheShrink about various issues in his life, such as [[DisappearedDad his dad flying away when Z was only a larva]], not getting any attention because he grew up in a family of five million, finding the idea of handling dirt as a career disgusting, and never being able to [[StrongAnts lift more than ten times his own body weight]].
34	* When Z complains that soldiers get all the glory and get to go out into the world, which he finds the idea of more fun than being a worker, Weaver points out that at least he gets to spend time with beautiful worker girls, leading to this:
35	-->'''Z''': "Weaver, they're career girls; they're obsessed with digging! I don't think I'll ever find the right girl for me."
36	-->'''Weaver''': "Who said anything about a girl for you? I was talking about a girl for ''me''!"
37	* Bala tries to lie that her and Mandible are "deeply in love", but can't bring herself to say the word "love", so she changes it to "engaged".
38	* Z describing the tough ant as being "built like a pebble".
39	* When Bala asks Mandible how his day was:
40	-->'''Mandible''': ''(casually)'' "Well... we declared war."
41	-->'''Bala''': ''(taken aback)'' "'Declared war'? Boy, talk about a rough day!"
42	* "Damn... good! Damn good!"
43	* "I'm the Princess, dammit!"
