History Funny / PacificRim

* When Gipsy Danger is fighting Otachi in Hong Kong, it tries to punch the Kaiju's head only for it to duck, with the punch landing into the inside of office building ... with enough of a push to start a Newton's Cradle office toy.

* Ladies and gentlemen, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9INlL66u3g the blooper reel]]:

* "Newton created a Neural Bridge out of garbage and Drifted with a Kaiju." One hell of a MomentKiller. Upon hearing this, Pentecost turns around with an expression equivalent to "[[http://heydontjudgeme.com/2013/08/02/movie-recap-pacific-rim/ a father watching his kid’s first football game and getting interrupted because his dumb nephew blew up the concession stand.]]"

---> '''Hannibal:''' (''cuts his way out of Otachi Jr's body'') Where is my goddamn ''shoe?!''

-->'''Newt''': Well, I can't do it again. Not unless you've got a fresh Kaiju brain lying around. ''[{{beat}}]'' Do you?

** Even funnier? [[spoiler: The website given links you right back to the video.]]
* Raleigh, talking to Mako about [[spoiler: Leatherback]]:
-->'''Raleigh:''' I think this guy's dead, but let's check for a pulse.
-->(''[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill blasts Kaiju four times with plasma cannon until its ribcage is wide open with its organs on fire]]'')
-->'''Raleigh:''' No pulse.

* Hannibal [[spoiler: getting eaten by Otachi Jr.]] It is abrupt and karmarific.
** On that note, TheStinger, which doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome for subverting [[spoiler:TooCoolToLive]]:
---> [[spoiler:'''Hannibal:''' (''cuts his way out of Otachi Jr's body'') Where is my goddamn ''shoe?!'']]

* Doubles as FunnyBackgroundEvent but [[spoiler:after the failed synchronization of Gipsy Danger that almost kills a lot of people you hear [=GLaDOS=] in the background, ''ever'' so politely saying: "Would you like to try again?"]]

** [[spoiler: Another funny moment sets in when you realize that Newt and Gottlieb are Drift-compatible, with each other and with a Kaiju.]]

* When Gottlieb suffers an attack of nausea after [[spoiler: going into the Drift with Newt ''and'' Otachi Jr's brain]], there's a ''convenient toilet in the rubble'' for him to be sick into.

** In the events that lead to this, [[spoiler:his {{Adorkable}} effort to uncharacteristically replicate and agree with Geiszler to "own this bad boy." He manages to at least get the "own" part down.]]
--->'''Gottlieb:''' [[spoiler: By Jove, we are going to own this thing for sure!]]

* Gottlieb finally receiving a BigShutUp from Pentecost when he keeps [[spoiler:interrupting Newt's exposition of the neural bridge with the partial Kaiju brain]].
-->'''Newt:''' Is it? Is that impossible? YOU KNOW WHAT, WHYDON'TYOUDRIFTWITHAKAIJU-?!
-->'''Marshal Pentecost:''' (''to Gottlieb'') YOU! SHUT UP! (''to Newt'') You, keep talking."

* Newt shaking and spasming on the stool, [[spoiler: after having recovered from drifting with the first Kaiju brain]].

-->'''Newt''': Well, I can't do it again. Not unless you've got [[spoiler: a fresh Kaiju brain]] lying around. ''[{{beat}}]'' Do you?
* Newt being [[spoiler: pushed into the center of the shelter after telling the panicking people that the Kaiju is after him.]]

* When Raleigh invites Mako to spar with him, she gives Pentacost a look that just screams "''Please'', [[spoiler: Dad]]!" without ever saying a word.
** The funny FridgeBrilliance continues immediately after when Raleigh is forced to ''goad'' Pentacost into letting her take a shot. He was perfectly fine keeping her out until he specifically asks if she's not up to snuff. The brilliance lies in that this is one of the best subtle hints to the relationship between the two...after all, [[spoiler: what sort of father would simply let that kind of slight by? ''Especially'' a foster dad.]]

* The Hansens weighing their options while [[spoiler:sitting inside a disabled Striker Eureka]].

* Newton's message for Gottlieb as he prepares to [[spoiler:Drift with the Kaiju for the first time.]]

* And when Hannibal gets a closer look at Newt's injured [[spoiler: left eye]]:
-->'''Hannibal:''' Holy jeez, you've gone and done it, haven't ya?
-->'''Newt:''' I did it a little bit, yeah.
** Even better is that he realizes something Newt did not: [[spoiler: that due to Drifting, The Makers know what Newt has discovered about the Kaiju and will be coming for him]] and expresses it thusly;
-->'''Hannibal''': You goddamn moron...

* When Pentecost is revealed [[spoiler: in the pilot armor]], his only comment?
-->'''Pentecost''': I don't remember it being so [[spoiler: tight]].

* When Stacker asks how Pentecost [[spoiler:can Drift with him]], Pentecosts's reply is amusingly blunt.

** Better yet is the fact that it's the level-headed ''father'' [[CrazyAwesome that says this]]. Not the young, impulsive son.

** Max Martini (Herc Hansen) getting his HoYay on with Clifton Collins, Jr. (Tendo Choi) by mock nibbling on his ear while Collins purrs "Haven't seen a beautiful lady in ''days''."

-->(''[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill blasts Kaiju four times with plasma cannon until its ribcage is blasted open and its organs are on fire]]'')

* While fighting Leatherback, Gipsy Danger digs in its heels as the Kaiju shoves it all the way to the end of a pier. Close on Gipsy's foot bumping into a mooring post upon which is perched a single seagull... that only flies off when the post tips slightly backwards.
* When Gipsy Danger is fighting Otachi in Hong Kong, it tries to punch the Kaiju's head only for it to duck, with the punch landing into the inside an office building...and enough of a push to start a Newton's Cradle office toy.

** And as Gottlieb keeps explaining his theory, [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Newton is behind him, making "blah blah blah" motions with his hand]].
* Doubles as FunnyBackgroundEvent but [[spoiler:after the failed synchronization of Gipsy Danger that almost kills a lot of people you hear [=GLaDOS=] in the background, ''ever'' so politely: "Would you like to try again?"]]

--> '''Raleigh:''' That's my room.

** Add the fact he turns and taps his ear to indicate he wants to hear Raleigh's "Yes, Sir."

* Gottlieb finally receiving a BigShutUp from Pentecost when he keeps [[spoiler:interrupting Newt's exposition of the neural bridge with the partial Kaiju brain]]. ("YOU! SHUT UP! You, keep talking.")

* The many [[ThatPoorCar car alarms]] that seem to be activated whenever a Kaiju or Jaeger is walking through the streets. One of the last (if not the last) time we hear one, it is mercifully silenced by Gipsy Danger crushing it with a fist.

-->'''Newt''': Well I can't do it again, unless you've got [[spoiler: a fresh Kaiju brain]] lying around. ''[{{beat}}]'' Do you?

* According to Hannibal, everything of the Kaiju sells. And when we say everything, we mean ''[[ToiletHumor EVERYTHING]]'': [[TooMuchInformation one cubic meter of Kaiju feces has enough phosporous to fertilize an entire field.]]

* When Mako starts Chasing the RABIT and accidentally fires up the Plasma Caster, which is the size of a ''house'', and everyone starts running, there's a reaction shot of the Russian couple (who are ''standing directly in front of the cannon'') looking ''mildly perturbed'', then walking away casually.

-->'''Newt:''' Unscientific aside; Hermann, if you're listening to this, well, I'm either alive and I've proven what I've just done works -- in which case, ''ha I won'' -- or I'm dead, and I'd like you to know this is all your fault. It really is. You drove me to this. In which case ''ha'', [[XanatosGambit I also won.]] ...[[PyrrhicVictory Sort of]].

** A little better in the novelization since Chau doesn't react with further intimitation but instead underreacts just to push Newt's buttons.

-->'''Hannibal:''' Holy geeze, you've gone and done it, haven't ya?

** Even better is that he realises something Newt did not, [[spoiler: that due to Drifting, The Makers know what Newt has discovered about the Kaiju and will be coming for him]] and expresses it thusly;

* After Chuck calls Mako a bitch, and Raleigh wipes the floor with him, Herc comes out asking, "What's going on?!" Raleigh shoots him a look from where he's got Chuck pinned down like a bug like, "What the hell does it LOOK like's going on?!"

* The many [[ThatPoorCar car alarms]] that seem to be activated whenever a Kaiju or Jaeger is walking through the streets. One of the last (if not the last) time we hear one, it is [[DarthWiki/MostAnnoyingSound mercifully]] silenced by Gipsy Danger crushing it with a fist.

* Probably a YMMV instance, but Raleigh's "It's analog." line. There's fan theories about it relating to the power systems, but on the surface it MAKES NO SENSE! How is a gigantic robot analog? Does it run on vacuum tubes? Are there crews that we don't see working switchboards in the legs?
