1* While infiltrating Memnon's castle, Memnon's Guards can be heard heading towards Mathayus and his young guide.
2--> '''Mathayus''': Get ready! I'll kill half, you kill half! (''the kid stares at him like he's crazy'') All right. I'll kill them all!
3--> '''Street Urchin''': (''tugs on Mathayus' arm'') Why don't we go ''around'' them and not kill anybody?!
4* [[NoodleIncident "It is not the size of the hump, but the motion of the camel!"]]
5** Say what now?
6* Just after Mathayus rescues Jesup from certain death.
7--> '''Mathayus''': You're lucky we have the same mother.
8** Even better is that after Mathayus finishes slaughtering all the Vikings (particularly the brutal kill of their leader), Jesup can be briefly seen just exasperatedly shaking his head. It's like he knows that Mathayus intentionally decided to make a spectacle of the kill.
9* When Mathayus' ''[[SarcasmMode loyal]]'' steed decides he's too heavy to hold up anymore and sits down, just when Mathayus needs him to stand up as he's sliding down a rope! Hilariously shortly before that when the camel notices what Mathayus is about to do it grunts in protest only for an indignant Mathayus to say he's not ''that'' heavy.
10* When Mathayus and Balthazar have their big FightScene, also a moment of awesome.
11** As Mathayus tries to hold Balthazar back, he starts throwing things at him. In the end, he almost throws a chicken.
12* Gotta love this scene.
13--> '''Balthazar''': You stay alive Akkaidian.
14--> '''Mathayus''': No need to worry, ''miss''.
15--> '''Balthazar''': ''(muttering as Mathayus leaves)'' "Oh, he's gonna pay for that..."
16* Philos is a veritable cornucopia of deadpan humor.
17--> '''Philos:''' Oh my. Are you going to kill me?
18--> '''Mathayus:''' (''dismissively'') Maybe later.
19** And not too long after.
20--> '''Philos:''' (''flatly'') You again?
21--> '''Mathayus:''' How do I get out of here?
22--> '''Philos:''' (''pointing to door Mathayus entered through'') Through that door.
23* After Matthayus falls through the ceiling interrupting her relaxing bath the sorceress snatches up a dagger. Guards burst in and Matthayus ends up in the pool next to her. She slashes his bicep. His 'ow' and hurt look are hilarious, so is the sorceress' expression she is so very pleased with herself.
24* Matthayus is about to be attacked by a horde of fire ants, normally not a problem except he's buried up to his chin in the sand. This doesn't slow him down much, as he fends off the ants by biting ''them'' first and crushing a few with said chin before his new sidekick comes up with a better plan.
25** Just before this, the horse thief Arpid says with great confidence that he's about to escape and is probably going to leave Mathayus to die for doing the same to him in a previous scene. He points out that one of the guards has been drinking for a while and he's just waiting for him to go off to take a leak. The guard does so, Mathayus looks back, and Arpid has inexplicably freed himself ''instantaneously''. He must have rolled a 20 or something.
26* According to Cassandra during the ending, her claim of VirginPower was just a BatmanGambit to make sure Memnon wouldn't take advantage of her. It's the ''one time'' The Rock busts out the People's Eyebrow in the movie.
27--> '''Mathayus:''' Don't the legends say you'll lose your powers if you...? ''(Arches eyebrow suggestively)''
28--> '''Cassandra:''' Can you think of a better way to keep a king from taking advantage?
29--> ''(Mathayus shrugs)''
30--> '''Cassandra:''' ...Well, [[SureLetsGoWithThat neither could my ancestors]].
