* Ben floundering, flailing and freaking out when Cú yanks him into the water: we get him gasping for air, struggling to stay afloat, it's harrowing and horrifying and then Saoirse and Cú slowly walk up to him, both about Ben's height, both only about up to their knees.

** Followed by an additional funny moment for those who have seen ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfKells'' as the driver jabs a finger over his shoulder to the group of costumed Halloweeners seated behind him...and among them is Aisling.

* The daoine sídhe not being able to remember the words to their song and Ben has to feed it to them in secret. They then think the voice is coming from one of their ''petrified'' comrades in the fort.
* Na daoine sídhe are especially funny if you recognise them as caricatures of Irish trad musicians, and even funnier once you realise that one of them is played by Pat Shortt (is it some form of obligation for Irish-made films to include a cameo from him?).

* A meta example: the Molly Malone statue, in all its...questionable glory, appears briefly as a Dublin landmark. At the time the film came out in Ireland, a complaint from a man on Live Line, Ireland's premier phone-in whinge-fest, about his book cover getting pulled from Facebook as pornographic due to her, err, ample cleavage, got a huge amount of attention, resulting in the original sculptor getting pulled in and the popularisation of a Facebook group called "Molly Malone has fantastic breasts". Definitely unintentional, but still hilarious.

As dramatic as this movie is, even it's got to have funny moments to balance out the melodrama.
