2----
3'''As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked [[Administrivia/SpoilersOff as per policy.]] Administrivia/YouHaveBeenWarned.'''
4----
5* At the end of the Magician boss fight: "[[TheDogBitesBack I've always wanted to do that...]]"
6** Also from their intro:
7-->*after [[LethallyStupid sawing an unfortunate woman in half]]*
8-->'''Reed:''' "Dammit! [[NoodleIncident Not again!]]"
9-->'''Chuck:''' [[CaptainObvious "Hey, that's not magic! She's dead!"]]
10** In ''Off the Record'', Frank's delivery to his reaction is also worth a chuckle.
11-->'''Frank:''' What the hell? That's not magic!
12* It's possible to use a can of spray paint to paint an "X" over the posters of Zombrex scattered around Fortune City. When you do so, you are greeted with 1,000 PP per poster and a line of Chuck trying to imitate the looters.
13-->'''Chuck:''' What a rush!
14-->'''Chuck:''' I could do this all day!
15* There's a movie theatre where Chuck can plop himself down. What's hilarious is his expression of anticipation during a horror film, with his knuckles at his jaw, and his look of rapt, slack jawed attention at a soap opera. It's glorious.
16** Most of the movies themselves are hilarious, especially "Mutant Crunch."
17-->"Brian, get me the anal probe. Its time to teach that son of a bitch a lesson."
18-->'''Chuck:''' "I laughed, I cried, it sucked."
19** At least Chuck got actual movies to watch. Frank only gets one feature, a one hour commercial for a time share company. Watching Frank try to stay awake during the DREADFULLY BORING presentation is hilarious, and as an added bonus, watching the entire cutscene nets you the Psychopath hairstyle.
20* The message "Barn Burner" results in you putting out a fire in the doorway of one of the arenas in order to free a couple. Once that's done, the woman will actually HIT ON CHUCK, causing him to simply respond with "...". Additionally, speaking to the man to recruit both survivors will reveal that they set the fire to keep the zombies away, but that they [[DidntThinkThisThrough didn't realize how that would trap them in the room]].
21* In the final battle with Tyrone King, Chuck and him will have the following exchange:
22-->'''TK:''' You gotta risk it all, if you're ever, really, gonna...
23-->'''Chuck''': ''(throws him off the railing and [[DisneyVillainDeath to his death]])'' [[IronicEcho Win big?]]
24** In Off The Record, this is changed to:
25-->'''TK:''' You gotta risk it all, if you're ever, really, gonna...
26-->'''Frank:''' ''(throws him off the railing and to his death)'' [[{{Metaphorgotten}} FALL TO YOUR DEATH!?]]
27* During an early part of the game, Chuck walks by Amber's dressing room on his way to get Katey. If the player actually steps into the dressing room, she'll get mad and scold Chuck.
28-->Amber: "Hey, stay out of my dressing room, Chuckie! Are you trying to catch a peek of a naked woman without having to pay for it for once?"
29* The double dildo you can use as a weapon. Bonus points and laughs if you manage to defeat a psychopath with it.
30** Don't you mean the [[BlatantLies "massager?"]]
31* Another gem from ''Off The Record'' are the voice clips Frank and Chuck have. One such is if Chuck finds Zombrex:
32-->'''Chuck:''' [[VitriolicBestBuds Hey, zombie boy, here's your drugs.]]
33* The very existence of the [[http://deadrising.wikia.com/wiki/Freedom_Bear Freedom Bear]].
34* Given how TooDumbToLive most of the survivors are in this game ([[ArtificialBrilliance not in AI]], [[WhoWouldBeStupidEnough but some of the things they force Chuck to do to get him to "recruit" them]]), Chuck's lines when dealing with the more idiotic ones often involve things like "[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Are You Kidding Me?"]], "[[FlatWhat What?]]", or "[[SarcasmFailure ...]]". This last one is used for when [[MinorInjuryOverreaction he has to carry a barefoot girl because "the floor's too cold"]], [[AbhorrentAdmirer and when a redneck woman hits on him]]. Makes you wonder whether the silence is Chuck being afraid of [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend pissing off the woman's husband]], [[ButterFace or afraid of what's under the bandanna she's conspicuously covering her mouth with]].
35* When giving [[ZombieInfectee Tyrone King]] Zombrex, Chuck responds to [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl his yelp of pain]] with "[[MyGrandmaCanDoBetterThanYou My daughter takes this better than you.]]"
36** And when he [[UngratefulBastard tries to snark back with]] "[[PapaWolf You raised her right, Chuckie.]] [[AndYourLittleDogToo It's a real shame she has to die...]]", [[TalkToTheFist Chuck socks him in the face]].
37* Chuck and Frank's various responses to the fortune teller machine.
38--> '''Chuck:''' "Your beard is stupid!"
39--> '''Frank:''' "Nice beard, Jackass."
40* While the fight with Ted is pretty sad, what isn't is Frank's reaction at the start.
41--> '''Frank:''' ''[[OhCrap It's a tiger-it's a tiger]]-'''[[OhCrap it's a tiger!!]]'''''
42* During one of the cutscenes with Bibi, Chuck/Frank tries to back out of doing her favors, when he gets some advice from her (tied up) audience;
43--> '''Juan Lee:''' ''Yo man, just do it!''
44--> '''[[UnfazedEveryman Cameron Welch]]:''' ([[TheComicallySerious Loudly slurps a milkshake]]) [[{{Beat}} ...]] [[JustSmileAndNod I would get her what she wants, bro]].
45** And, if you fail that mission, in the cutscene, "[[ThisIsGonnaSuck Oh Lord, down I go.]]"
46* In the Yucatan Casino, there's a bonfire with a prompt marked "Money to Burn". Activating the prompt has you throw $100 dollars into the fire and ups the price to do it again. This can be repeated with an ever climbing price tag for a measly "Pyromaniac" bonus and a sliver of PP each time. But burning cash up to and including the $100,000 denomination nets you the illustrious "Stupidity Bonus"! At least it's worth a bunch of PP. And lampshaded by Frank.
47-->'''Frank West:''' Why did I do that?
48* Among the survivors are four nerds playing ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''. Normally, it takes Chuck a while to convince them to come with him. If he has a woman in his party, [[AllMenArePerverts they join immediately]].
49* Carl Schliff's LargeHam tendencies during his introduction cutscene and subsequent boss fight.
50* On every combo card, there's a screenshot of Chuck using the weapon that the card is for. Most of them are just screenshots of his character model while he's attacking with it - except for the Spiked Bat, which instead has a picture of Chuck with the bat propped on his shoulder while he gives the camera a cocky smirk, as if he were posing with it for a commercial.
51!!''Dead Rising 2: Off the Record''
52* The entirety of the E3 2011 Uranus Zone trailer for ''Off the Record''.
53* Frank wearing a wrestler's outfit in the completely different version of Terror Is Reality in the trailer.
54** Wait, it gets better; after you're done playing [=TiR=], you can wear it. FOR THE REST OF THE GAME. There's something hilarious running around killing zombies in a wrestling outfit, a viking helmet and yellow sneakers.
55* Frank's Zombie Walk move he can learn.
56--> (Completely nonchalant) "Brains."
57* The entire boss battle with Evan, which is a complete 180 in mood from the battle with Adam in the original Dead Rising.
58** Especially, ''especially'' this line:
59--->'''Frank:''' I don't think you're going to sell a lot of ice cream right now. And I am ''not'' getting into your car.
60** This line from Frank when Evan finds out his identity:
61--->'''Frank:''' [[HereWeGoAgain Oh, this]] [[ThisIsGonnaSuck never goes well.]]
62*** The sheer sight of the [[BrickJoke autographed Frank picture]] suddenly flying up, pausing right in front of Frank for a whole ''three seconds'' and Frank never reacting to it is hilarious.
63*** All the more amusing if Frank is wearing headwear that hides his face, like a Servbot helmet. How can Evan recognize him if he can't see his face? Maybe Frank West is just a big ol' trigger for him...
64** There's also something hilarious about Evan running around after he loses his stilts.
65** After this, Evan has a grapple attack where he runs up Frank and starts pounding on his face. Wiggling the left stick (or mouse) to get him off you will have Frank push him off and punt him across the sky like a football.
66** And then there's his death scene. He tries to go for one of his ice bombs atop his truck, but can't reach them due to how short he is. He knocks one onto him and freezes himself. As he freezes and utters his LastWords, Frank completely unflinchingly walks up to the statue and nonchalantly pushes it over with his foot and [[LiterallyShatteredLives shatters]] [[IceBreaker it]], walking away without even changing his facial expression.
67-->'''Frank:''' "[[BondOneLiner That guy kinda cracked me up]]."
68* During the Chuck Greene boss fight, Frank can yell a number of things. The context, by the way, is Frank having started the fight by accidentally grabbing the doll Chuck uses to replace his dead daughter.
69-->"You're taking this way too personally!"
70-->"Aren't you being a bit overprotective?!?"
71-->"Have you looked into grief counseling?!?"
72* Let's face it: just about all of the quips Frank fires off in ''Off the Record'' are comedy gold.
73--> (saving a woman who got badly sunburned) "Lady, you got the lobster look down."
74--> (co-op Chuck uses his camera) "Where'd you get that from, a box of cereal?"
75--> (buying from a looter-run pawn shop) "Hey, y'know what? Your store sucks."
76--> (defeated Slappy) "How's that smile working out for ya?"
77* One of the skill moves that Frank can learn as he levels up is the Snapshot. With this move, he grabs the nearest zombie in front of him and inexplicably takes a selfie with it. Yep. What helps is that it nets a decent chunk of PP in the "Outtake" category.
78* TK forces Frank to fetch him a men's silk thong.
79-->'''TK''': I needed me some nice new undies. You better make sure that's the magnum size. XXL, bitch!
80* There's a survivor in the Uranus Zone, where he's surrounded by "[=NPCs=]" (zombies). When Frank rescues him, he's a video gamer who constantly breaks the fourth wall. He also mentions that his hands are for gaming, not fighting. This is true, since if he's given a firearm, he can't handle the recoil and is always knocked back when he shoots.
81* You find two survivors in Uranus Zone who are both wannabe-comedians trading really terrible jokes at each other. You have to give a trophy to one of them in order for them to follow you to the safe zone, much to Frank's disbelief and annoyance. One of them will mope if you don’t get him the trophy, forcing you to pay him. The other? He’ll proceed to loudly cry over and over again for the entire trip.
82* ''Off The Record'' has this lovely gem after Psycho!Stacey gets crushed:
83-->'''Frank:''' [[BondOneLiner I always thought you had a crush on me.]] Too bad I don't dig [[SquashedFlat flat chicks]].
84* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWf7uxjJ0DY opening cutscene]] for Off The Record's sandbox mode.
85-->'''Helicopter Pilot:''' So, Frank West; you here to get your next big scoop?
86-->'''Frank:''' No way, pal! I'm not here for work. This... ''[[IncomingHam is my VACATION!]]''
87-->''Frank jumps out of the helicopter towards a horde of zombies below with a cheerful smile on his face, the screen freezes while in mid-air like in action movies while incredibly cheesy music plays in the background.''
88!!''Dead Rising 2: Case West''
89* Some Chuck's lines in ''Case West'' after destroying Phenotrans security cameras can be this. Notable ones include "Mind your own damn business!" and "It's rude to stare!"
90* Frank inadvertently sets off the intruder alarm which attracts enemies to his and Chuck's position. After the fight, he uses old cliche lines to the person on the other end of the radio to try and signal that nothing's wrong. He looks up from his position to look at Chuck, who just shakes his head with the same stony face he usually wears.
91* One cutscene features Chuck and Frank sitting in the Shipping Office, with Chuck repeatedly clicking a pen to Frank's chagrin. Eventually Frank has enough and throws the pen into a wall. Chuck then delivers one of the best lines in Case West.
92-->'''Chuck:''' Y'know, you're a little high-strung for a [[AscendedMeme guy who's covered wars]].
93* The mad scientist's hair resembles [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic Dr. Wily's]] hair style a lot.
94* Chuck and Frank sneak into a security room with one single visible guard. Chuck looks at Frank, whispers, "There's just one guy," and sneaks into the room... only to stand upright, loudly announce his presence and try to intimidate the guard to keep quiet, all while the alerted guard's partner throws him a rifle and steps in with his own, giving the poor guy an OhCrap reaction. But what sells the scene is Frank's reaction as he watches the poorly thought-out plan unfold - as the guards begin shooting, Chuck barely dodges by diving into the next toom, while Frank had already nervously moonwalked out.
