Big Daddy (1999 film)/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • A little dark if you're watching it with your grandpa or grandma, but the scene with Sonny and Vanessa discussing her new boyfriend.

Vanessa: He has a five year plan.
Sonny: What is it? "Don't die"?

  • The fact that poor little Julian has to take a leak about every five mintues.

What's your name, he'll write it on the wall... mind your business!

  • When Sonny steps on Julian's Scuba Steve Doll.

Sonny: Ow, Scuba Steve! Damn You!

Julian: Electricity! Constitution! Philadelphia!
Nazo: Fish! Pony! Hip, Hip Hop, Hip Hop anonymous? Damn you! You gave him the easy ones.

  • Mr. Herlihy is a cross between hilarious and a complete and total ass. He also makes a lousy character witness.

Mr. Herlihy: Koufax is a good egg, he was nice to that kid. But he fights like a girl. You like that? I'm right here Miss, what are you gonna do about it? Hahaha.
Sonny: What are you drunk Mr. Herlihy?
Mr. Herlihy: Well, I-I had a few chardonnays, what of it?
Sonny: Get off the stand please.

  • Saying he "drinks a lot of soda" don't help much...
  • Julian's kindergarten teacher gets one of the best lines.

"One of the children wore rollerblades for Show & Tell, and Julian tripped him with a stick!"

  • "I watched Fantasia a lot. And one day it just clicked."[context?]
  • "Lasagna? What the hell's the matter with you?"[context?]
  • More hilarious dialogue:

Cashier: We stop serving breakfast at 10:30.
Sonny: Oh horse shit!
[Julian cries]
Sonny: I wasn't cursing at you, I was cursing at the lady.

  • "WILL SOMEBODY GET THIS KID A HAPPY MEAL!?"[context?]
  • "What's your name? He'll write it on the wall!"[context?]
  • The random goth dude:

Sonny: You're mad at your dad, not at me, I forgive you!
Goth (walking away and sobbing quietly): I am, I am, I hate my father ...
