Context Funny / ThereWillBeBlood

Go To

1* The scene near the end where Daniel is asleep on the floor, Eli screams, "DANIEL PLAINVIEW THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE!" and Daniel is still sleeping like he didn't hear a thing.
2* "I. DRINK. YOUR. MILKSHAKE"! {{Narm}}, a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome or BlackComedy (or all three!) depending on your view, but pretty amusing any way you slice it.
3** The metaphor was supposedly BasedOnATrueStory. Taken out of context, however, it quickly fell subject to MemeticMutation.
4* "I'M FINISHED!"
5* "''DRAAAAAAAAAAAAINAGE!!!'' Drainage, Eli, you BOY!"
6* "Can I build around 50 miles of Tehachapi mountains? Don't be thick in front of me AL!"
7* Daniel realising that his only way to build a pipeline through William Bandy's property is being baptised and made a member of Eli's church.
8---> '''Daniel:''' I'll pay you $3,000.
9---> '''Bandy:''' I'd like you to be part of our church.
10---> '''Daniel:''' I'll pay you $5,000.
11* Daniel's baptism is simultaneously funny and [[TearJerker sad]]. Daniel speaking of abandoning his son and then him getting tired of Eli continually making him beg for the Blood is emotionally intense, but after he's baptized, he even shakes himself off like a dog.
12---> '''Daniel:''' Give me the blood Eli. Let me get out here! Give me the blood Lord! And let me get away!
13---> '''Eli:''' Do you accept Jesus Christ as your lord and saviour?
14---> '''Daniel''' ''(casually)'': Yes, I do.
15** Also the [[DeathGlare exasperated withering look]] that Daniel gives Eli when told to admit abandoning his son is pretty darkly hilarious as well.
