Funny / The Croods: A New Age

Go To

  • The Interrupted Intimacy montage that Grug puts Eep and Guy, and his whole family through because he can’t let Guy take Eep away from him.
    • Visually, he is seen on fire, eaten by two man-eating plants (who form of a heart), and then he gets everyone shocked by a giant electric fish.
  • The Running Gag of Thunk throwing something leading to a stick going into someone’s eye.
    • The first time, Thunk tries to play fetch with Douglas, only for the stick to wind up in a Chicken Seal's eye with it chasing him.
    • The second time is actually done by Grug in an Imagine Spot where he throws one into the eye of Phil Betterman, who ends up having the same reaction as the Chicken Seal, scream and all.
    • The third time happens when Thunk tries to throw a boulder at the Spiny Mandrilla only to miss entirely, and ultimately hitting a stick that causes it to land in its eye and making it angrier.
  • When Guy, Grug and Phil are captured by Punch Monkeys, hijinks happens.
    • After a tense moment of the wall getting banged open due to Grug eating all the bananas, he ends up laughing after finding out it was (seemingly) a lone little Punch Monkey and that Phil was scared of it to the point of offering him bananas. Cue the Monkey punching his fists along with hundreds of others behind him in the jungle.
    • The Punch Monkies all carry the three in a log, much like Guy in the first movie, only this time Guy's in the middle of Grug and Phil. He tries to complain about his earlier breakup with Eep but then a Punch Monkey, annoyed by his talking tries to turn him to the other side and then poke him in the eye when he continues.
    • Guy communicating with the Punch Monkey elder involves punching and slapping each other, due to it being the way all the monkeys communicate.
    • As Phil brags about how he diverted a mountain's river to his side into a desert after hearing how the Monkeys' paradise became a wasteland, he then realizes that aforementioned river was also how it was initially a paradise and tries to stop Guy from finishing translating. Unfortunately for them, Guy already finished the sentence, much to his chagrin.
    • Phil tries to get the fend off the monkeys by trying to scare them, only for them to learn just as quickly and outnumber him and Grug and Guy. First with making a spear, then by making fire, and lastly by teaching them how to tie a knot because apparently they were really bad at it according to him.
  • After Dawn convinces the family that the Spider-Wolves were just trying to protect their pup from a potential danger, and giving a lesson to Hope that they and the Croods are not so different, Thunk decides to run up to the Spider-Wolves to pet them, only to be met with them, as he calls it, "hugging him with their teeth".
  • Gran Gran setting Hope on fire. After Hope gets frozen in an ice geyser, Gran Gran tries to warm her up. Despite Hope attempting to convince a safer solution, Gran Gran shushes her mouth and, well it was less set her on fire and more putting her in an explosion, which could be seen when Ugga goes to find Eep. The kicker here is Gran Gran's laugh being heard in the distance.
  • While the Thunder Sister females get their own awesome title, Thunk is simply referred to as Thunk and later on, Grug and Phil Betterman are referred to as the Banana Bros. Hope is also given the name "Bog Water", which Gran Gran admits she came up with before the former gets her cool hair.
  • The closing credits are a bunch of fun. We see a banana-eating contest of Grug and Phil vs Ugga and Hope, Gran daring Punch Monkeys to punch her, Gran’s wigs fighting, and Thunk and a Punch Monkey sleeping in a bed together.
  • And of course, this gem here:
    Grug: Here! Right here! All your needs will be met-
    Granny: I'm hungry!
