3!! The 2009 movie
4* While Frisbee tries to act suave and cool, it can't be denied it all goes out the window once a bunch of reporters come in and begin clamoring the healing bed-ridden JP if he's going to join the Redline race. His facial expressions as he looks on in disbelief at the TV and then at the reporters at what's happening is something to behold.
5* When JP's and Miki & Todoroki's substitutions are announced, we see the two dropout racers being interviewed about their decision to bail. One is a bizarre alien aristocrat who mentions that Robo World is a regular client of his company, and the other is a BirdMan who admits he's got [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere no intention of risking his life over a race]].
6-->'''Kurukuru-Daza:''' I don't plan on dodging racers AND bullets at the same time. I don't have the health plan or the balls to do something ''that'' stupid!
7-->'''JP:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Chicken's got a point]].
8* Old Man Mole and Frisbee disagree on Frisbee's choice of engine to install in JP's car for the Redline Race, which is too heavy for JP to finish in first place with. When Mole tells JP to talk some sense into the engineer, JP instead ''geeks out over the engine!''
9-->'''Old Man Mole:''' This idiot wants to put in a goddamn TRZ Airmaster!\
10'''JP:''' ''Bitchin'!''\
11'''Old Man Mole:''' [''DopeSlap''] What?! No it's not!
12* A quick shot of a family watching the race on TV, in a [[ArtShift completely different art style for no reason]], ending in a SmashToBlack {{Beat}} for extra audience disorientation.
13** The dub adds on to this by giving the lady a rather left-field comment:
14-->'''Kid:''' Goody goody! We get to watch a bunch of idiots get themselves killed!\
15'''Woman:''' Violence is the only thing that gets me hot anymore!
16* When the mustached, cephalopod-like manager of the Oasis restaurant [[DistractedByTheSexy stares at Sonoshee with infatuation]] after serving her food, JP takes advantage of his inattention by pantsing him. As soon as Sonoshee notices his state of undress, he quickly freaks out, yanks his trousers back up, and runs away in embarrassment. To add insult to injury, JP even tells him to "go put on a belt." He had a point too, considering that the manager's pants (which has "OASIS" stenciled on the rear ''for some reason'') are hanging low enough that his underwear is showing from the back.
17** As a cherry on top of this BlackComedy cake, the manager is later shown crying to a crustacean-like chef about the incident, who quietly pats his shoulder to comfort him:
18--->'''Manager:''' (''sobbing'') She (Sonoshee) saw everything!
19* After the experience at the restaurant, including the ForeignQueasine, Sonoshee is shown the next day cooking her ''own'' meals.
20* Miki and Todoroki's interview, which just consists of several seconds of awkward silence as Miki peels a banana and then:
21---> "GORI-RIDER YOU MOTHERF[[CurseCutShort *BEEP*]]" *scene change*
22** It's arguably funnier in GratuitousEnglish in the original Japanese:
23---> ''GORI-RIDAH MODAFA-"
24* The two commentators, Voidu and Minerva Haness. Just the juxtaposition of Voidu's incessant LargeHamAnnouncer offset by Minerva's much more subdued "retired old pro" perspective is hilarious from start to finish. From their very first scene, we get a basic set of cuts of the casters from different camera perspectives before the show begins, whereupon Voidu is already struggling to contain himself, making all kinds of funny faces until the camera finally settles and he ''bursts'' out with his NoIndoorVoice.
25-->'''Voidu:''' ''Sonoshee's scaling right up the dam! '''I'VE GOT WOOD!'''''
26* Miki and Todoroki hitches a ride behind the tunneling Gori-Rider to avoid the minefield, then decides to surface since they're faster on land. As they surface Miki is overjoyed they're in the lead...completely unaware that they came out in the ''middle'' of [[EpicFail the minefield they were trying to avoid]].
27* Gori-Rider upon realizing that he has DugTooDeep.
28---> "Where the bloody hell am I!?"
29* Shinkai's ''complete'' derailing of JP and Sonoshee's romantic moment in the restaurant.
30* The first time Roboworld attempts to use their KillSat lasers on the racers. [[AntiClimax Nothing happens]], and we are given a shot of the lasers after having been sabotaged - and tagged with grafitti - by Lynchman and Jonny Boya.
31* It's as awesome as it is hilarious but JP triggering a gold nitro so he can have his car spin fast enough that he can [[ArtisticLicensePhysics skim across the water at high speeds]].
32* The President of Roboworld's incredulous reaction to the Redline Mothership making use of technology that ''only works in theory''.
33** What’s even funnier is that the scanners were somehow able to detect and recognize said technology, so either The President is a KnowNothingKnowItAll talking out his ass, or no-one but ''[[CrazyIsCool the Redline organizers]]'' would attempt anything so batshit crazy.
34* When giving info on the Redline racers, the first one is of Sonoshee with the only shot of her being centered on [[MaleGaze her ass]]. Then she complains about this -- and we get a blatant view of her topless and eating cherries for no particular reason.
35* The tertiary plot of Planet Supergrass dealing with Roboworld to set up the racetrack is less like an underground rebel alliance or another opposing empire sabotaging a dictatorial state's military power and more like a 6 year old girl dicking with an old man. Not entirely helped by the fact that the Princess ''does'' treat it like a joke through and through.
36* The way Little Deyzuna joins the race. Initially, he is trying to kill the racers just as ordered. But once he and the Trava/Shinkai team are all alone, their fight becomes a verbal shouting match, causing him to [[RevengeBeforeReason abandon his mission and joining the race so he can beat them]]. And the best part? ''Everybody goes along with it''. [[FunnyBackgroundEvent The television broadcast even adds him to the official leaderboard]].
37* Frisbee calls JP an idiot for popping a steamlight, which can kill a normal human under normal circumstances, into an engine that is only designed to take 3 Gold nitros (and already popped two). Pops then chimes in that JP can do it, only for Frisbee to yell at him "Really!?". We then find out Pops is completely shitfaced from booze at this point.
38---> Pops: "I don't know!"
39* How does the remaining Roboworld Forces react when they see the racers go so fast that even their advanced Mechs and Bikes can't catch up?
40---> "[[RageQuit Fuck this]], [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere they're too fast.]]"
