1It depends on your taste in humor, but once in a while, the much-maligned duo do find a joke that actually works.
2
3* In ''Date Movie'', Grant Fockyerdoder accidentally knocked Julia's adoptive grandmother's urn, which contained her decaying body. The Jones' cat starts [[ILoveTheDead having sex with it]], grossing out Grant.
4* One example is in ''Epic Movie'' when Edward drinks from the "[[ToiletHumour chocolate river]]".
5** "''AAAAAHH! TALKING BEAVER!''" *kicks* Funnier the second time when Lucy already met Mr. Beaver.
6** The ''Film/SupermanReturns'' gag in ''Epic Movie'', where, instead of deflecting a bullet with his eye, it goes in with an appropriate squishy noise, followed by shrieks of agony.
7--->"Oh, my God! [[EyeScream You shot me in the fucking eye!]] That really hurt! Why would you do that?! That was so unnecessary, you bastard!" (falls off the building as he screams like a little girl)
8* Frodo trying to pawn the One Ring. HilarityEnsues.
9* The Advertising/HeadOn [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxfAP02YfV4 parody]] from ''Disaster Movie'', possibly the only remotely funny joke in the movie.
10** The "Running with glass slippers" would be on here... if it didn't come after a scene which we see the princess eating glass.
11* ''Meet The Spartans'': The gag about how blatantly obvious the councilman is the traitor, as well as joking about how many movies have villains who are trustworthy to the cast but blatantly obvious to the audience.
12** ''Traitoro was a... traitor?''
13** "TONIGHT! WE WILL DINE! AT ''HOOTER'S''!"
14** The penguin in "Meet The Spartans" going "I'm gonna [[AssShove shove my]] [[WesternAnimation/HappyFeet happy foot]] [[AssShove up yo' ass]]!"
15** The Xerxes {{Expy}} tricking the Leonidas {{Expy}} into bowing down to him by telling him that his shoe is untied.
16** The bizarre DancePartyEnding with the entire cast singing "I Will Survive". It's out of place, but oddly amusing.
17** Two of the Persians carry around a blue screen during the battle, saying if they need reinforcements they can just CG more in. It gets better when you see them charging into battle carrying the blue screen. Damnit, a clever joke!
18*** In the same scene, Sonio jumps onto Leonidas's back with the reasoning that "a Spartan always protects another man's rear" before telling him to adjust his "[[GagPenis sword]]" that's digging into his back.
19--->'''Sonio''': I'm not wearing my sword...
20--->'''Leonidas''': [{{Beat}} before deciding to roll into it] Carry on then!
21*** Afterwards, as the Persians are charging at the Spartans, we get this gem:
22--->'''Leonidas''': Remember this day, boys, for today is the day you die!
23--->''([[MusicalisInterruptus The music suddenly stops]] as the Spartans mutter [[FlatWhat Flat Whats]] in confusion)''
24--->'''Sonio''': [[BigWhat What?]]
25--->'''Leonidas''': ''([[OpenMouthInsertFoot Realizes what he said and attempts to backtrack]])'' I mean, ''they'' die! Today's the day ''they'' die! [[SarcasmMode That's what]] [[BlatantLies I meant to say!]]
26*** The way he exasperately rolls his eyes and bobs his head arguably makes it funnier.
27* ''The Starving Games'': It's pretty obvious, but District 12 using their middle fingers instead of the three finger salute towards the Capitol is pretty funny.
28** Near the end, Kantmiss and Peter are confronted by the Film/TheExpendables, who have them surrounded.
29--->'''Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger Look-Alike''': ''(Aims his gun at them)'' [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Hasta-La-Vista, baby.]]
30--->'''Creator/BruceWillis Look-Alike''': ''(Aims his gun at them)'' [[Film/DieHard Yippee-Ki-Kay.]]
31--->''(A {{Beat}} later, and one of the members tries to continue the BondOneLiner train.)''
32--->'''Creator/JasonStatham Look-Alike''': Damn it, I don't have a CatchPhrase.
33* In ''Super Fast'', the car the Brian O'Conner {{Expy}} drives has a NOS tank full of Lance Armstrong's Urine.
34** Also, the joke about the team moving the restaurant comes incredibly close (as well as almost being an actual ''joke'').
