Paper Mario (franchise)/Funny: Difference between revisions

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV1ka2Du3Qs Feeding the Gourmet Guy cake for the first time].

* Goombario does not enjoy Dry Dry Desert.

"So blue...the desert sky... They ought to call it... 'Big Ol' Super Blue Sky'!" }}

* After you thrash the Goomba King and his servants, Red Goomba and Blue Goomba, they retreat to inside his fort. Listening at the window, you hear how the Goomba Bros. hid an important switch where no one will find it...''outside''.

** Poor Blooper? What about the Bob-omb who had to see Luigi in drag?

* There's a scene in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' where Mario has to go through pipes to escape a locked room. Par for the course? Of course, for Mario. But the catch? Said pipes are in a ''toilet.'' No matter which of Mario's partners you have with you on the other side, their reaction is priceless--but Flurrie's is this troper's favorite:

** IIRC, Koops says something along the lines of "so THAT'S what plumbers do!" Also:

** Similarly, each time you run into Ms. Mowz, she gives Mario a kiss before leaving. Each partner's reaction is worth hearing.

* "You rang, dude? I mean, sir? You rang, Sir Grodus, dude? Grodus? Sir Grodus, sir?"

** "Shut up."

* Also this exchange at the beginning of the game:

'''Prof. Frankly:''' Oh, I'm sorry. I'm such a bookworm, I haven't a clue about what's "hip" right now. }}

* And:

** Made even funnier considering he only hatched in the last chapter.

* I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the Bowser interlude where Bowser meets Lord Crump in Twilight Town.

** '''Any''' of the Bowser interludes, especially the ones where you need to control him through mock versions of Super Mario Bros. levels.

Fiesta ! }}

** "Great, just great. Now I look like the huge, mighty king of GUYS WHO TALK TO POSTERS!"

** Bowser's epic battle against Rawk Hawk for his Crystal Star:

** [[Completely Missing the Point|"I DON'T KNOW ANYBODY NAMED GONZALES!!!"]]

*** "STOP SPEAKING IN RIDDLES, YOU CHICKEN NUGGET!"

** "Swimming. I was ''swimming''."

** In the first interlude, Bowser can listen to two Hammer Bros. in a conversation. The first one starts blabbing about how he caught Bowser mooning over a picture of Princess Peach, all while the other one is telling him to shut it. His reaction when he turns around is pretty damn hilarious.

"He's not funny, sir!" }}

** When Kammy Koopa tells Bowser that Mario is in Rogueport, she expects a huge reaction obviously for her scouting and hard work. She gets:

** At the Great Tree, Kammy and Puni Elder get into an argument. Bowser has one of two thoughts that the player can choose; "You're BOTH too old!" or "It's hag vs hag! Awesome!" Regardless, Kammy will ask Bowser why it looks like he's dying to say something.

* When visiting Glitzville, try answering the pay phone. You might get a weather update.

** How about when a guy calls and says "Hello?" repeatedly?

* The Nintendo Power guide for the game is actually pretty funny in parts.

** If you don't have the guide, get it. It's like it was written by a [[Deadpan Snarker]] or a <s>First</s> [[First-Person Smartass|Third Person Smartass]].

** Two moments in said guide that particularly stood out for this troper:

(When the Russian-accented Bob-ombs reveal their giant cannon to fire Mario to the moon) "Those of you who grew up in the '60's, feel free to hide under a table." }}

* Anytime you fight (and win) in the Glitz Pit with Yoshi.

* Doopliss impersonating Mario.

** For people who looked it up or replayed the game, when you try to guess Doopliss's name but use an uppercase "P" instead (since the lowercase "p" is missing) You'll get "[[Doo Pliss]]? Hahahaha! Who'd name their kid that?"

* "Flavio hates you all."

** The complete lack of respect the entire crew have for Flavio.

'''Flavio:''' That's enough, you mutinous jokers! }}

* The Cursed Chests, to the point during the third time around, Mario seems more annoyed than scared.

* The crows in Twilight Town, when you hide in the shadows with Vivian.

* Bowser can investigate his statues in his first level (which consists solely of walking to the other end of the room and being rude to a few underlings)... for the most part, he just comments about how handsome he is. But on the third one you get this lovely parody of the way Mario finds things, complete with Item Found music on the bolded statement:

* One of the very first scenes in the game involves a massive horde of X-Nauts jumping Mario--and then Mario just walks away, as they're mindlessly pouncing on something (that is very much not Mario) in the middle of the crowd.

* The scene shortly after the above where, in the middle of Toadsworth talking, 2 Pianta mobsters show up in the background and begin working two Craws (Gus and Garf) over before leaving. You're in Rogueport for 5 minutes and you've already witnessed a gang war.

* The sidequest from the trouble center where you have to give a Goomba (who somehow got deep into Pirate's Grotto) a girlfriend. You're supposed to introduce him to Goombella, but you can introduce him to any of your partners. The funniest part is, Koops and Yoshi seem to be legitimately offended that he didn't want them. Also, Ms. Mowz will simply tell him that he shouldn't go into any dark alleys after that.

** His reaction if you show Bobbery is hilarious too.

* In Chapter 2, when you first get to the Great Boggly Tree, you find there's a mechanical door that blocks your way. Punio goes to where the secret entrance for Punies is, but can't find it because of an invisible [[Buffy-Speak|thingy.]] [[Captain Obvious|He comments no secret entrance would be labelled secret entrance.]] When you get Flurrie and use her power to blow that thingy away, it turns out, [[Irony|the secret entrance is marked by a large neon sign that clearly says "SECRET ENTRANCE".]]

** Punio, of course, [[Failed a Spot Check|doesn't realize the irony]].

** "Now you and this robotic guardian can spend some quality time... Yes, quality snack time! When he snacks... on you! [[Don't Explain the Joke|For you... ARE the snack!]]"

** And, of course, his first shown interaction with Mimi...

'''Mimi:''' [[Mythology Gag|(transforms into Bowser)]] WHAT! Dimentio! Have you been reading my diary? ...uh...I mean... }}

** CTRL ALT DEL

* [[Rhymes on a Dime|Merlee]] and [[Shape Shifter|Mimi's]] catfight was surprisingly hilarious as well, including this wonderful line:

And you...well, you’re a hag! }}

* Bowser in the beginning cutscene.

* When the Cragnon chief is explaining that the Floro Sapiens have been making off with his people, he gives us this: "Now rescue team of Cragnons need to BE rescued!"

** "Nerd Cragnons name them Floro Sapiens."

** A minor one can come in just how King Croacus looks. This troper remembers bursting out laughing the first time she saw him.

* In reference to the sleeping at the top of the page, Merlumina is the only one to ever realize that Mario fell asleep.

* Flint Cragley. Everything about him. CRAGLEY HO!

** Also the fact that, of all things, you have to rescue his camera crew for him.

* A minor one but it shows a lot. After Mimi insults Peach for not being a fighter (stating that she has two 'boyfriends' to protect her), Peach stands her ground and tells Mario and Luigi to let her fight alone. After she screams if they understood, they don't object. They just stare each other say 'sure' and WALK BACKWARDS away from the Princess.

* In Chapter 5, the Floro Sapiens capture some Cragnons and go down a pipe.

'''Bowser''': "What am I, blind? Shut up." }}

** Its interlude is golden. Nastasia punishes O'Chunks by forcing him to sing an song in Count Bleck's favor '''''1,000 TIMES!''''' GOLD!

* A lot of Luigi's lines are funny.

'''Luigi''': I'm my bro's bro.<br />

'''Luigi''': The G-Great Luigi, you say? A... A daring defender? ...Me? Then I've got no choice! Luigi must spring into action! My fans need me! }}

* If you listen to Garson's story about the Ancients, he says that they spread word of the Pure Hearts and the legendary hero by building civilizations. If you're thinking that way, this can be summed up as them saving the universe by boning kingdoms into existence... Well, read the story he tells for context.

* After defeating King Croacus, Tippi says quite possibly the most awesomely nonchalant line in the whole game.

* The Underchomp battle, which is one big [[Shout-Out]] to the [[MOTHER]] series. The text in the battle in just ridiculous.

"Now that's hot!" }}

* From when you beat Mr. L in his Brobot L-Type:

* Tippi's snarky lines when you keep refusing to wear a space helmet.

* In Dyllis's kitchen: "Here, ve take flavor, und ve SPANK IT!"

* Near the ending of the game, Peach mentions she, Bowser, Luigi fell through the floor. Bowser landed fine, she landed on Bowser and comments it was a surprisingly soft landing, then she proceeds to mention they found [[Butt Monkey|Luigi knocked out.]]
