Line #37 Funny/PeeWeesBigAdventure


1	!!As a moments page, all spoilers are unmarked!
2
3	* All the things Pee-Wee plays with in the magic shop are jokes in of themselves.
4	** The clerk showing off different fake severed heads... a replica shrunken head, a normal-sized manequin one... and a GIGANTIC [[Creator/AleisterCrowley SCOWLING BALD GUY]] HEAD!
5	--->'''Clerk:''' B'WAAHAHAHAAAHH..\
6	'''Pee-wee:''' ''(backs away)'' [[BigNo NOOOOOO!]] Ha ha ha ha!
7	* '''Pee-wee:''' There's a lotta things about me you don't know anything about, Dottie. Things you wouldn't understand. Things you couldn't understand. Things you ''shouldn't'' understand.\
8	'''Dottie:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint I don't understand]].
9	** And the CallBack when the same speech is given by James Brolin. Extra funny points for turning [[LameComeback "I know you are, but what am I?"]] into a pick-up line.
10	** And from Mickey.
11	--->'''Pee-wee:''' Déjà vu.
12	* Pee-wee initially assumed the Soviet Union was behind the bike's theft [[note]]According to a very brief line spoken by a Police Officer at the station. This is [[FridgeBrilliance referenced]] [[CallBack later]] [[BrickJoke in the]] [[ShowWithinAShow in-universe]] "Secret Agent" movie made based on [[TitleDrop Pee-wee's big adventure]][[/note]].
13	-->'''Officer:''' "...So what led you to believe the Soviets were involved?"
14	* The entire climax of the film with Pee-wee's rampage across the Warner Brothers studio lot. Moments include:
15	** Pee-wee barreling across the set of a [[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute suspiciously familiar]] kaiju [[TakeThat film]] with [[SpecialEffectsFailure rather lackluster and obvious vfx.]]
16	** What's even more funny is the fact that the security guards are actually the ones causing damages to the sets.
17	** Only Pee-wee could get into a chase by a guy in a boat on land that is towing both Santa Claus and [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Godzilla]]!
18	*** ...and the "beach party kids" and Music/TwistedSister end up in the fray.
19	* Pee-wee's argument with Francis.
20	-->'''Pee-wee:''' I wouldn't sell my bike for all the money in the world. Not for a hundred, million, billion, ''trillion'' dollars!\
21	'''Francis:''' Then you're crazy.\
22	'''Pee-wee:''' I know you are but what am I?\
23	'''Francis:''' You're a nerd.\
24	'''Pee-wee:''' I know you are but what am I?\
25	'''Francis:''' You're an idiot!\
26	'''Pee-wee:''' I know you are but what am I?\
27	'''Together:''' I know ''you'' are but what am I? [[MotorMouth IknowyouarebutwhatamIIknowyouarebutwhatamIIknowyouarebutwhatamIIknowyouarebutwhatamI...]]\
28	'''Pee-wee:''' Infinity.\
29	'''Francis:''' No, I'm not.\
30	'''Together:''' You are! No way! Knock it off! Cut it out!\
31	'''Francis:''' Oh shut up, Pee-wee.\
32	'''Pee-wee:''' Why don't you make me?\
33	'''Francis:''' Why don't you make ''me''?\
34	'''Pee-wee:''' Because, I don't make monkeys, I just train them.\
35	'''Francis:''' Pee-wee, listen to reason. ''(Pee-wee put his hand on his ear to "listen")'' Come on!\
36	'''Pee-wee:''' Shhhh, I'm listening to reason.\
37	'''Francis:''' Pee-wee!\
38	'''Pee-wee:''' That's my name, don't wear it out.
39	* The bath fight with Francis is hilarious.
40	** The tub itself is basically an indoor swimming pool with a comically giant tub faucet set on one end.
41	--->'''Pee-wee:''' ''(after locking the bathroom door)'' Go ahead; scream your head off! We're ''miles'' from where anyone can hear you! ''(maniacal laughter)''
42	** Before that, Pee-wee threatening Francis:
43	--->"Tell me where it is before I lose ''patience'' with you, Francis!"
44	* On the window of Madam Ruby's psychic parlor, there is a neon sign advertising her services. Along with the usual forms of divination mentioned there is also... ''INCOME TAX''.
45	* Pee-wee scares some local punks by making an animal sound.
46	-->'''Punk:''' Hey, man! You're new in this turf. We don't take kindly to strangers around here!\
47	'''Pee-wee:''' HISSSSSS! ''(the gang runs away)''
48	** Still funny later on when Madam Ruby tries to remove his wet jacket and he hisses at her as well, causing her to recoil quickly.
49	--->'''Madam Ruby:''' Alright, you wanna wear a wet jacket, it's fine with Madam Ruby.
50	** And then there's Pee-wee demanding proof that she's a real psychic:
51	--->'''Madam Ruby:''' "You're heeeere... you're here because yoooouu... ''want something''."\
52	''(Pee-wee immediately tosses over his wallet and cash)''
53	* Pee-wee throws away his hitchhiking thumb when it didn't work.
54	* Simone the waitress asks Pee-wee if he has any dreams[[note]]as in "life aspirations"[[/note]], he brings up something involving "rolling a big doughnut" and a "snake wearing a vest" before she corrects him.
55	* "Andy!"
56	** '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YHyIsn8ffY "ANDY?!"]]'''
57	*** "N'YAAAARRRGGGHHHH!"
58	* The hobo keeps singing and singing.
59	** It's a montage where Pee-wee is enthusiastically singing along at first....but time just goes by and Pee-wee gets sick of it but the hobo's ''still singing''. Finally....
60	--->'''HOBO JACK:''' ''"Jimmy cracked corn and I don't care! Jimmy cracked corn and I DON'T CARE! JIMMY CRACKED CORN AND I...DOOOOOOOON'T....CAAAARRREEEE!!!...."''\
61	'''PEE-WEE:''' ''"AUUUUUUUGH!" (Jumps off the train).''
62	** There's also a quick moment when Jack turns to Pee-wee to sing "Shoo, fly, shoo!" and Pee-wee quickly whips his head away after catching a faceful of Jack's awful breath (he'd been eating sardines when Pee-wee first came to).
63	* When Pee-wee wanders the wasteland at night (with just his eyes showing), he breaks out one of his toys: Illuminating goggles. But when he puts them on...
64	-->'''Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!''' (He's surrounded by [[SpecialEffectsFailure obviously fake animals]], and a few real ones.)
65	** "Kitty."
66	* Pee-wee's impatience in the Alamo tour.
67	** The [[https://image.ibb.co/bBMW6V/impatient-peewee.png one shot with his expression]] between the two very happy gents in cowboy hats (who are really enjoying the tour), especially.
68	** The tour guide stating that there are THOUSANDS of ways to use corn....
69	--->'''Tour Guide:''' "....all of which I will tell you, right now!".
70	** The fact that....after all that boring stuff about "the thousands of uses of corn" and other "life in the Alamo" facts, the ''big reason'' that The Alamo is an important historical site is merely glossed over by the tour guide....and she phrases it as if the American side won instead of them ''losing'' in the CurbStompBattle it really was. This even comes after acknowledging Mexican-Americans in the crowd, who probably know she's full of shit.
71	* "I'M TRYING TO USE THE PHONE!"
72	** Oh my God, just that whole scene at the biker bar.
73	** Pee-wee starts crying after he accidentally knocked the motorcycles, knowing he's going to get it.
74	--->"I barely touched them!"
75	** The bikers threatening to enact revenge on Pee-wee, which just keeps getting [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon more and more over the top.]]
76	---> '''Biker #2:''' I say we kill him!\
77	'''Biker Gang:''' Yeah!\
78	'''Biker #3:''' I say we hang him, ''then'' we kill him!\
79	'''Biker Gang:''' Yeah!\
80	'''Biker #4:''' I say we stomp him!\
81	'''Biker Gang:''' Yeah!\
82	'''Biker #4:''' Then we tattoo him!\
83	'''Biker Gang:''' Yeah!\
84	'''Biker #4:''' Then we hang him...!\
85	'''Biker Gang:''' '''YEAH!!'''\
86	'''Biker #4:''' And then we kill him!\
87	'''Biker Gang:''' '''YEAH!!!'''\
88	'''Pee-wee:''' ''(tries to throw voice without moving lips)'' I say we let him go.\
89	'''Biker Gang:''' '''NO!!!'''\
90	'''Biker Mama:'''[[note]]An uncredited Creator/CassandraPeterson[[/note]] ''(whistles)'' I say ya let me have him first!\
91	'''Biker Gang:''' ''(break out in raucous laughter)''
92	** How does Pee-wee get out of it? By dancing and breaking things ("Ha ha! Break dance!") to the tune of The Champs ''Tequila'', much to the delight of the bikers.
93	** When Pee-wee makes friends with the bikers and they let him borrow a bike. He gets on, revs the badass motor, rides off and... smashes right into a sign. For added humor, the sign Pee-wee crashes into has the word "Apache" on it; [[SignsOfDisrepair he takes out the "P" and the second "A", making it say "Ache"]].
94	* While on the phone with Dottie, Pee-wee has to convince her that he's at the Alamo. He does so by loudly singing "The stars at night, are big and bright--" ... Cue the ''ENTIRE CROWD'' walking by on the sidewalk stopping, turning, clapping four times, and singing "Deep in the heaaaaaart of Texas!" in perfect unison.
95	* On the same phone call, after Pee-Wee asks Dottie to wire him a bus ticket, she hints at a date at the drive-in. Pee-Wee, getting the hint, pretends that the connection is bad and makes staticky noises before thanking Dottie for the bus ticket and hanging up.
96	** Also about Texas, after a rodeo, Pee-wee says he doesn't remember anything...but he remembers the Alamo. Everyone around him cheers [[note]]CONTEXT: Peewee was out-cold, coming out of his unconsciousness and briefly amnesiac as the concerned Texans ask him his name and such as he answered "I don't remember". A guy then asks, "Do you remember anything?"....cue "I remember the Alamo"[[/note]].
97	** While hiding from Andy, Pee-wee disguises himself as a cowboy. Even walking in a cowboy strut. He found out too late he was dressed as a bull rider.
98	*** The costume itself, compared to the other cowboy types hanging around, is a cartoonish, brightly-colored "Tom Mix" sort of gettup.
99	---->'''Cowboy:''' ''(pulls Pee-wee up)'' That's you, cousin!\
100	'''Pee-wee:''' Uh-oooohh!
101	* The chase through the soundstages and backlots, particularly as "bystanders" get swept up in it.
102	** SantaClaus....Franchise/{{Godzilla}}....the band, Music/TwistedSister....
103	* "Is this something you can share with the rest of us, Amazing Larry?!"
104	* The funny look at Pee-wee's face when he honks his horn at everyone. Followed by a suspiciously brief DeathGlare similar to the [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay T-1000]]'s.
105	-->'''Pee-wee:''' Exhibit D: Jimmy what is this? Too late! Chip!\
106	'''Chip:''' It looks like a pen.\
107	'''Pee-wee:''' Exactly! I bought this pen exactly one hour before my bike was stolen. Why? What's the significance? I DON'T KNOW!
108	** "Exhibit Q: a scale-model of the entire mall! X marks the scene of the crime. These arrows here show the exact position of the sun at the hour of the crime. Jupiter was aligned with Pluto! The moon was in the seventh..."
109	** "It's like you're unraveling a big, cable-knit sweater, [[SanitySlippage that someone keeps KNITTING!]] [[MadnessMantra A-HA-HAND]] ''[[MadnessMantra KNITTING!]]'' [[MadnessMantra A-HA-HAND]] ''[[MadnessMantra KNITTING!]]''"
110	*** What’s more, it’s during this moment that everyone at the meeting leave, but Pee-Wee is too caught up in his mantra to notice.
111	* Pee-wee finally acts against his snake phobia at the burning pet shop. The look of disgust on his face as the music pauses momentously is ''priceless''.
112	** The lead-up....where he repeatedly passes the snake tank and reacts with disgust....is a scream, too.
113	** Then he barges out of the Pet Shop with two wads of Garter snakes in his hands...
114	--->"AAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGHHH!!!! (''faints'')"
115	** What’s more (Doubling as a MomentOfAwesome), the entire scene was not acted. Paul Reubens ''had a genuine Phobia with Snakes'', so his screams & reluctance in the scene were real.
116	* The very first scene, as Pee-wee pulls to the lead in the Tour De France on his coaster bike in his gray suit and tie - sets the mood for the whole movie.
117	* His RubeGoldbergDevice breakfast-making machine makes a full, delicious-looking breakfast of Fried Eggs, Bacon and Pancakes (in the shape of a face, called 'Mr. Breakfast')... which Pee-wee pours ''Mister T'' cereal on, eats only two pieces of the cereal... and is DONE... leaving the whole thing uneaten.
118	** Then there's the fact that he eats his cereal dry and with a fork.
119	* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RryZV8NK9-Q And when they finally pulled the driver's body.. from the twisted.. burning.. WRECK, it looked like this!]]", doubles as NightmareFuel as well.
120	* That look Mickey --who just got out of prison, mind you-- gives to Pee Wee while he's disguised in drag is both creepy and hilarious at the same time.
121	-->"''Arrivederci'', baby!"
122	* Pee-Wee's painfully obvious overdubbed voice in his movie cameo. You just ''know'' the producers took one listen to his performance and went "Yep, we're fixing that in post.":
123	-->"''Paging Mr. Herman...''"
124	** Then there's Pee-wee constantly edging himself back into the middle of the frame and looking directly into the camera as he does it.
125	* Right after the car makes a soft landing:
126	-->'''Mickey:''' Out!\
127	'''Pee-wee:''' But...\
128	'''Mickey:''' ''OUT!!''
129	** Before that, as they were falling down screaming, they both hold onto each other. Mickey then pushes him away while still screaming.
130	*** During all the screaming, Mickey makes some hilarious "OOH! OOOOH!" noises.
131	*** More hilarious is when Pee-wee closes the convertible's roof to use it as a makeshift parachute, Pee-wee laughs in relief while Mickey is ''still'' screaming as they slowly descend.
132	* Pee-wee trying to get into Francis' house, only to be stymied by the butler (who looks an awful lot like [[Film/{{Goldfinger}} Oddjob]]).
133	-->'''Pee-wee:''' I wanna see Francis.\
134	'''Butler:''' Francis is busy.\
135	'''Pee-wee:''' Busy doing what?\
136	'''Butler:''' He's having his bath.\
137	'''Pee-wee:''' Oh, ''really?'' Where are they hosin' him DOWN?\
138	''(The Butler slams the door, but Pee-wee knocks again and the Butler answers again)''\
139	'''Pee-wee:''' Me again. Ha-h--\
140	''(The Butler slams the door again, but hears another knocking sound. He opens the door, but finds a knocking device attached to it, while Pee-wee sneaks by behind him.)''
141	* The fact that some truckers in a diner had set up an elaborate, Gothic, candle-festooned memorial to Large Marge that would look more at home in a Catholic Church or mausoleum is pretty funny as well.
142	* How a few scenes echo or CallBack each other...
143	** EARLY IN FILM: Pee-wee does some bike tricks and falls off his bike in front of some bike-riding kids, cue IMeantToDoThat. LATER IN FILM: At the end of the big Movie Studio chase, he escapes from the studio by flying through the air, rolling off a house roof like a ski jump, then lands before another group of bike-riding kids. Cue an adorable little boy saying "RADICAL!".
144	** EARLY IN FILM: When Pee-wee discovers his bike stolen, he barges into the bike shop, yells "DOTTIE!" blasts the bike horn, faints and knocks down a row of bikes like dominoes. LATER IN FILM: Pee-wee accidently knocks over a row of Biker Gang motorcycles in similar fashion, earning the ire of The Satan's Helpers.
145	* After Pee-Wee loses his bike and all manner of bikes go by him, the last one is a toy cop on a motorcycle.
146	* The [[ShowWithinAShow movie based on Pee-wee's adventures]], in which Pee-wee is reimagined as "P.W. Herman," a [[HollywoodActionHero James Bond-esque super-spy]] who fights ninjas and rides a [[CoolBike tricked-out motorcycle]] called the X1.
147	* Hell, ''the mere tagline of the film on the poster is one as well''. It simply states "A Story of a Rebel and his Bike"… next to an image of Pee-Wee in a goofy pose with his red custom bicycle. It's debatable if the tagline is either ExactWords or MetaphoricallyTrue, or even both.
