History CrossesTheLineTwice / LiveActionFilms

* The titular character of ''Film/Deadpool'' dances all over the line. When he's not [[BreakingTheFourthWall deliberately invoking it]].

* ''Film/{{Daybreakers}}'' has a scene where a team of vampire scientists are attempting to develop a [[VegetarianVampire synthetic substitute for human blood]]. Then they test it on a guy. He doesn't just die, he '''''[[LudicrousGibs explodes]]''''', not only splattering the hapless scientists with his blood but also the [[BloodyHilarious entire rest of the room and the windows through which the corporate bosses are watching the experiment.]] Made even funnier by the victim muttering "[[MajorInjuryUnderreaction Ow]]" right before it happens and Sam Neill's corporate boss character only turning back to look at his colleagues and giving the slightest sigh of mild disappointment afterwards.

** In ''Film/RoboCop1987'', the prototype ED-209 enforcement drone [[DisastrousDemonstration malfunctions during a demonstration]] in the OCP boardroom and rips a young exec apart with an [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill extended and over-the-top]] [[MoreDakka heavy machine gun burst]], while technicians desperately try to shut it down. Most of the censored versions cut this to a short burst, and make the scene look more clinical and horrifying. The original scene has the 209 continue firing for over 10 seconds, long after anyone could possibly have survived, just chewing up the body. The joke is further emphasised once the shooting is (finally) over someone shouts out to call a medic. Even more ironic is that this is what made it originally X rated.

** The scene of Joker convincing a hospitalized Harvey Dent that ''he'' (rather than the Joker himself) was responsible for his girlfriend Rachel's death and instigating Harvey's StartOfDarkness into Two-Face should not be comedic by any stretch of the imagination. But here, it's absolutely hysterical because the Joker does it ''while DisguisedInDrag as a nurse'' (not in practical scrubs, mind you, but in a short-skirt white outfit and hat that one would expect to see in a porn scene) '''''throughout the entire time'''''.

** The movies and series are based on this trope. Everything always ends with destruction of everything that appears in path of our protagonists. Like in the following joke: joke. (Note that out of all the mischief the crew unwillingly did, this was the only one to haunt Stan, ''especially the robot on the planet''.)

* In fact, this is a signature of The Joker in almost any media - the one from Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/{{Batman}}'' made us laugh as he gassed a roomful of people... to music. The ''[[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries Animated Series]]'' Joker generally didn't get much of a body count, but funnily blowing up empty buildings (like the hospital from ''The Dark Knight'') was well within his reach, and in TheMovie ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker'', he makes a few really funny one-liners while revealing that he [[ColdBloodedTorture tortured]] a child until his identity was broken and believed himself to be the Joker's son. Listing all the sociopathic hilarity that the Joker has unleashed on the world of comics would fill several pages this size.

** Played intentionally straight in ''Film/RoboCop2'', in a scene that is even more disturbing (and hilarious), where two [=RoboCop=] 2 prototypes are rolled out. OCP is trying to make new [=RoboCops=]. Out of the two prototypes that were taken all the way to a final showcasing, one went berserk and shot the scientists in the room before committing suicide, and one pulled off its own helmet, showing little more than a skull and some electronics before collapsing with an unearthly wail. The higher-up viewing videos of the aforementioned facepalms and mutters about the tremendous loss that the two failures represent: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOBGPA2KguQ "Ninety million [dollars]."]]

* While not as strong an example as some of the others, in the 2009 Film/StarTrek movie there's a scene where [[spoiler: Spock's mother falls over the edge of a cliff, making it impossible to beam her up to the Enterprise and thus killing her.]] The title for the part of the soundtrack from this scene? [[spoiler: "I've Fallen and I Can't Beam Up!"]]

* ''Film/HotTubTimeMachine'': A screaming, obscene phone call to a nine year old girl becomes a character's CrowningMomentOfAwesome.
%% ** [[spoiler:There's also the revelation that Lou is Jacob's father]].

But here, it's absolutely hysterical because the Joker does it ''while DisguisedInDrag as a nurse'' '''''throughout the entire time'''''.

** There's also Simple Jack, a movie starring Tugg Speedman, played by Creator/BenStiller, that parodies OscarBait films involving celebrities playing disabled people. It would come across as offensive if they didn't go all the way with it, giving us the [[MemeticMutation immortal line]] "You went full retard, man. Never go full retard".

** Same with ''[[Film/{{Braindead}} Dead Alive]]''. Lawnmower + zombies anyone?

* The Pig Lizard in ''Film/GalaxyQuest'' counts as this. An animal being turned inside out by a teleporter and exploding? Nasty. The guts hitting an alien in the face that reports that it exploded in a completely calm manner to the person who was set to be transported by the same machine? Hilarious.

* Bond AffectionateParody ''Film/OSS117LostInRio'' has a ''nazi'' reciting Shylock's monologue in Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice to complain about nazis always being the bad guys. At some point, the titular character, stuck [[UncomfortableElevatorMoment in an elevator]] with Chinese and nazi agents wanting to kill him, uses a string of anti-Asian racial slurs to force the Chinese to attack the laughing nazis while he walks away from the elevator.

** Not to mention the sex scene. Just in general. [[note]] It was so extreme that the MPAA demanded cuts for it to qualify for an R-rating, Parker and Stone [[BlatantLies complied]] by re-submitting a version of the scene that was [[UpToEleven twice as filthy]] [[RefugeInAudacity and five times as long.]]

* ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' is built on this: Gratuitous use of the word 'nigger' and BlackComedyRape to name a few.

* You could argue the entire movie is this, but when you see the scene when Film/ForrestGump explains Lt. Dan was from a long military tradition, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9c8Rba5NVE and then you see a Death Montage of Gary Sinise (the actor playing Lt. Dan) playing a different ancestor just at the moment of his death, in a different battleground, with a war uniform more modern that the last]], you don't think that the movie is mocking those soldiers' patriotism or sacrifice, but you see it as questioning the intelligence and sanity of GloryHound Lt. Dan, whose desire to die in battle makes Forrest seem like a genius by comparison.

* ''Film/DjangoUnchained'': In the climactic shootout of the movie, there's this one guy, Jesse, who may be the ''un''luckiest {{Mook}} ever to appear in a western. When things kick off, Jesse piles in through the door and immediately gets taken out by a shot to the leg. He then proceeds to get riddled by bullets from both sides ''over and over''. The whole scene would be pure NightmareFuel if not for Jesse's friends shouting out horrified apologies to him for their UnfriendlyFire from behind cover. As if it couldn't get worse for Jesse, at one point a really fat guy runs out to him and gets killed and ''falls over dead on top of him''. [[spoiler:Jesse is still alive by the end of the gunfight when Django is forced to surrender.]]

Most of the censored versions cut this to a short burst, and make the scene look more clinical and horrifying. The original scene has the 209 continue firing for over 10 seconds, long after anyone could possibly have survived, just chewing up the body. The joke is further emphasised once the shooting is (finally) over when a single meek voice asks "should we call a medic?" Even more ironic is that this is what made it originally X rated.

* The 1992 comedy ''[[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104283/ Folks]]!'' starring Tom Selleck, may be a good example of this. The movie is not only built on a {{squick}} premise, but involves the hero enduring serious injury after serious, ''permanently disfiguring,'' injury in the course of otherwise typical slapstick violence.

* Violence against women is really not a laughing matter, but in Denmark the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO3LwBKxAkM egg-blowing scene]] from the 2006 comedy ''Blinkende Lygter'', about [[TrueCompanions four gangsters from Copenhagen]], who hide from their former boss in an abandoned country inn, is generally considered the funniest thing to hit the silver screen that decade.
