History Funny / ThreeAmigos

* When the first group of banditos report back to El Guapo about the Three Amigos, the leader says, "They called us 'scum-sucking pigs! ...US!" The tough, scuzzy bandito just sounds so ''[[AndThatsTerrible hurt]]''.

But could it be that once again, you are angry at something else, and are looking to take it out on me? (later, El Guapo reveals he is frustrated that Carmen rejects his advances) Why don't you just take her?

* Related to the movie, Creator/RogerEbert [[http://www.rogerebert.com/interviews/in-memory-of-johnny-carson recalled in his blog]] a time when he and Gene Siskel were on ''The Tonight Show'', with Chevy Chase (as the first guest, promoting ''Three Amigos!'') sitting next to them. When Johnny Carson asked Roger what his least favorite movie of that holiday season was, Roger sheepishly admitted, "Three Amigos!". An awkward silence befell all four men before Chevy cracked, "Looking forward to YOUR next film!"[[note]]Roger said that after the show, Chase took it in stride and even admitted he wasn't fond of the film himself.[[/note]]
-->'''Johnny Carson''': I wish I hadn't asked you that.
-->'''Roger Ebert''': I wish you hadn't, too.
