2 | * After his Muslim family decides to seek refuge in Israel, Saladin Kader tells his father that he's going to join a youth-based terrorist group in the name of his faith. The father - normally quiet and docile - suddenly erupts with anger, beating Saladin viciously for even considering such a thought. |
3 | --> ''Some martyr I turned out to be. I cried all the way to Cairo.'' |
4 | * After one of Raj-Singh's monkey subordinates witnesses his HeroicSacrifice and celebrates that the Himalayan safe zone was genuinely safe: "But instead his little penis popped out and he peed in my face." Indian monkeys know how to ruin a moment. |
5 | * The story of ridiculously cheery T. Sean Collins recounting his time as a mercenary guarding a bunch of celebrities making a reality show in a fortified mansion. There's not much to dislike with this one: |
6 | ** [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed The descriptions of the celebrities in question,]] (most notably [[Creator/ParisHilton "that little rich, spoiled, tired-looking whore who was just famous for being a rich, spoiled, tired-looking whore"]]). |
7 | ** Then there's the show itself, consisting of the celebs reacting to footage being aired on the news. One guy on the TV [[BatterUp straps a meat cleaver to a hockey stick]] and rollerblades down the street looking for zombies to kill, only for one to come out of a sewer drain and [[TooDumbToLive drag him in by his ponytail.]] |
8 | ---> ''I remember thinking I had less respect for the ones who tried to fake some tears than I did for [[Creator/ParisHilton the little spoiled whore]] who called the rollerblading guy a "dumbass." [[JerkassHasAPoint Hey, at least she was being honest.]]'' |
9 | ** Finally, the climax where, instead of zombies, the place is overrun by [[spoiler: normal humans looking for refuge.]] |
10 | ---> ''I met the whore's rat dog as we were both heading for the back door. He looked at me, I looked at him. If it'd been a conversation, it probably woulda gone like, "What about your master?" "What about yours?" "Fuck 'em."'' |
11 | * After the International Space Station's crew being stuck in space, alone, for five years without resupply, a rocket (specifically, Virgin Galactic, the private rocket group) is finally launched to the ISS. The first thing the rocket's cheerful, cowboy-hat-wearing Texan captain says is, "Did anyone order takeout?" |
12 | * A former White House chief of staff who ignored the various warnings that the ZombieApocalypse was impending has a new job after the war is over... shoveling manure. |
13 | * General Travis reflects on the futility of waging Total War among any society. It's impossible to devote one's entire existence to winning a conflict with an enemy, every waking moment of every day being spent to win the war against the Undead. As he so eloquently puts it: |
14 | --> ''What if you're taking a dump? Is that a Dump for Victory?'' |
15 | * During the epilogue, Joe Mohammed and his friends are watching a porno in a garage for a buddy's bachelor party. The "scene" involves two people going at it on the hood of a car, but while his friends are cracking jokes about what's on screen, all Joe can think of is [[ComicallyMissingThePoint what it would take to build one of those cars in the aftermath of the zombie war]]. |

17 | * The Zombie's tendency to click their teeth repeatably. |
18 | ** This is apparently a widespread reaction. There are quite a few reports of audiences bursting into laughter when the zombies do that repeated chompy-chompy bitey-bitey at nothing motion. |
19 | ** Not to mention the hospital zombies' tendency to hunch over and make strange noises that make them look for all the world like chickens. |
20 | * "Looks like we just woke the dead. Out of respect to others, please turn off all pagers and cell phones." |
21 | * A BlackComedy one, when Gerry asked where the documents are, the soldiers replied "you're free to look". (They were burned along with the zombies.) |
22 | * ''Definitely'' BlackComedy, but Dr. Fassbach slipping on the airplane's slick ramp and [[spoiler: shooting himself in the head]]. |
23 | * The Captain coming into combat with Zeke driving the fuel tank and flattening everything that stands in his way with a delighted "Woohoo!" |
24 | -->''I'm gonna clear a path through Zeke! You paddle like hell!" |
25 | * Well Gerry, you just [[spoiler:became invisible to zombies.]] Whatcha gonna do? [[spoiler:[[ProductPlacement Drink a Pepsi!]]]] |
26 | ** Although completely understandable considering he's been without food for awhile, been under extreme duress and endless escapes, and just [[spoiler: infected himself with a disease]]. Given that he finally has a chance to catch his breath, and is near a distraction he'll need anyway, it's funny in its humanness that he opts to drink one before carrying on. |
27 | ** You can practically hear the Mission Passed Respect + theme from GTA San Andreas. |
28 | ** Hey, it's probably going to be a while before anyone gets back to making soft drinks, so why not? |
29 | ** The zombies running past him, even ''pushing'' him aside to get at the noise. It even comes off as a perverse Pepsi commercial: "Zombies can't resist the great taste of Pepsi!" |
30 | * The moment when [[TheLittlestCancerPatient The Littlest AIDS Patient]] is dodged by zombies has a dark kind of humour, as he watches the zombies swarm for him, then break aside. It's like the movie's saying, "What's more evil than zombies? AIDS!" |
31 | * Mexican audiences loved the "Mexico City has been declared a total loss" bit near the end of the film. It's like a "P.S., Just in case you were wondering." |
