History Funny / SavingMrBanks

* Although it comes at a fairly serious moment; Travers sees a sketch of the penguin sequence in "Jolly Holiday" and wonders how Disney will be able to train the penguins to dance. Being the only person not to know that Travers specifically requested no animation be in the film, Richard Sherman says the penguins are going to be animated. Cue OhCrap expressions by Don Degradi and Robert Sherman. When Travers storms off to Walt Disney's office, Richard says to the others, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint "What?... Are we going to get real penguins?"]]

* When Travers hears "Let's Go Fly A Kite'" she tries to replace it with "Let us go and fly a kite." She then goes back on it. Also Crowning Moment of Awesome for the Shermans for having Pamela agreeing with them

-->'''Travers:''' "Are you suggesting that Mrs. Banks is a neglectful mother?"

-->'''Robert:''' [[BluntYes "Yup!"]]

* The interactions between Ms. Travers and the Sherman Brothers push this film towards a comedy. the stark contrast between the personalities really makes for some very humorous moments. her dry wit at their expense.

* Ms. Travers sending Robert Sherman from the room after one of their disagreements. He may have been a father himself but the way he leaves the studio smacks of an angry child being sent off to their bedroom, after having a tantrum.

-->'''Disney:''' [[ManChild "Oh, look at you! I could eat you up!"]]
-->'''Travers:''' [[DeadpanSnarker "That wouldn't be appropriate."]]

** The initial reason presented for the red or lack thereof is also hilarious. The camera turns to Robert, who's prominently wearing a red vest and whom she hasn't gotten along with at all.

* When Music/TheShermanBrothers perform Bert's "comical poem" for Travers, she objects at the made-up word "responstable" (rhyming with "constable") and tells them to "un-make it up". The brothers then sheepishly hide the sheet music to "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" in their papers.

-->'''Travers:''' You can stay over there until you learn the art of subtlety.

* [[spoiler:"She's dancing with Don!"]]
* A meta-example: Although the reason for it ends up being quite sad [[spoiler:(her father coughing up blood in the days before his death)]], Travers's insistence that she wants the color red to feature nowhere in the film ("I'm just anti-red, I don't know why!") becomes hilarious when you re-watch ''Film/MaryPoppins'' and see just how often red ends up featuring prominently in it (particularly Mary's dress during the chimney-sweep rooftop sequence).

* Anything involving the giant Mickey plush. Particularly near the end [[spoiler:as you discover she's taken it home and has it sitting at her kitchen table]].

** Travers' [[ThisIsGonnaSuck reaction]] to finding out she's going to Disneyland, mostly because you simply don't ''have'' that reaction to finding out you're going to Disneyland.

* "SHE'S LAYING!"
** It was meant as a {{Tearjerker}}, [[{{Narm}} but really....]]

* When Travers hears "Let's Go Fly A Kite'" she tries to replace it with "Let us go and fly a kite." She then goes back on it.

* Don [=DaGradi=] sketching a caricature of Mrs. Travers saying, "No! No! No!", his, Richard, and Robert's impression of her.

** Travers: "Are you suggesting that Mrs. Banks is a neglectful mother?" Richard Sherman and Degradi hem and haw.
** Robert: [[BluntYes "Yup!"]]

* The smug smile of Walt's secretary when he walks in following Travers' secret return to the studio.

* When Travers hears "Let's Go Fly A Kite'" she tries to replace it with "Let us go and fly a kite."

* Disney's poor naive secretary tries her best with Mrs. Travers but is always the butt of her barbs; "If you even think about bringing that in here I shall scream!"

* Ms. Travers sending Robert Sherman from the room after one of their disagreements. He may have been a father himself but the way he leaves the studio smacks of an angry child being sent off to their bedroom, after having a tantrum.

*** The best part of that scene is that she doesn't throw the Mickey plush, she deliberately (and firmly) sets him down facing the corner, as one might a naughty child.

* Everything involving Walt taking Travers on a trip to [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disneyland.]] Turns out he had a bet to see if he could get Travers onto a ride, and he won $20.
