Hehe, who would wear a belt buckle with their name on it.....
When Manny looks at the Hector's logo on the floor:
I'll bet Hector pauses here every day, and thinks to himself, "Boy I wish I could see past my gut and enjoy my expensive monogrammed floor!"
I love the cutscene where Manny falls into the sea.
"Tourists..."
On the roof of DOD, when you show the pigeons the Robert Frost balloon.
- Run you pigeons, it's Robert Frost !
Manny
It cracked me up
Yeah one of my favs
In the vault of the coral building on the edge of the world, using the bust-all on the coral archives:
Manny: Hah! "Bust-all", my ass!
:) :rolleyes: :p :D :lol:
LOL that makes me laugh every time:rofl:
At the edge of the world near the train tracks in the gremlins home. Examine the coffee cup holder (Near that toaster) and he says "It's the mug rack, at the end of the world". Doesn't sound funny now but just the way he says it :)
^^ hahah yeah. He says it in this deep dramatic voice that's so out of palce for Manny.
haha yeah thats exactly right. Also one more point to add is the conversation with bowsley at the florist shop where you say "I'm not here to hurt you" Bowsley says "I'm Hector and I'm Here to hurt you!" or when you say "I'm not Hector I'm Manny Calavera" and Bowsleys says "I'm not Hector I'm Manny Calavera come to sprout ya" etc etc

Yeah it did. But of course I think everything is funny
In Year 3 if you use Meches stockings (with nothing else) Manny says:
"I would never wear these... they have a hole in them." :laughing:
And if you use the stockings on Domino, Manny says:
"Nah, his thighs are to boxy"
I love it when Manny starts telling Nick that lawyer joke. Something like "So, a lawyer, his mother and a chicken are in a lifeboat. They start to get hungry, so the chicken says --" and then Nick pulls out a gun. :D
I guess they eat the lawyer? haha
After having been offline from LucasForums so long, I'm glad that my funny, ever-lasting thread stayed alive with your points about GF's humour. :)
Again, reviving this thread... Grim Fandango's comedy knows no boundaries.
Manny and Celso
"You're going to have a great trip. I wished I was going too."
"Then why don't you? You could give me a lift."
"Oh, I can't leave until I've worked off my debt for the powers that be."
"Community services, eh?"
About cards
"This deck of cards is a little frayed around the edges. Then again, so am I. And I've got fewer suits."
"I've already got a card out, and I'm not dealing more until there's money on the table."
The latter cracks me up! :thumbs1:
Picking up things
"It's not portable." (His computer in office)
"Could I take your hole punch?" Eva: "Hah! I doubt you could take my half punch."
Funny sound
When/where: When you're down in the garage for the first time before you meet Glottis. In more details, where the camera has Glottis shop to the left side and the cars on the right.
How: Walk behind a stock of tires and you'll hear a funny crash sound. Glottis will hear and talk to you. You probably can't miss it.
"Could I take your hole punch?" Eva: "Hah! I doubt you could take my half punch."
Forgot about that one. That was one of the first laugh out loud moments for me :D
There were so many moments that made me laugh, I can't even remember them all, but here's one: Glottis in the High Roler's lounge, oh and the way he rushed off there, when you gave him the VIP pass.
Glottis to Raoul:
Taking a little NAP-ay-vous, eh? Well, LE keg is LE empty, so toot sweet, Buster!
Glottis:
(Gasp) AH HEART! HEART IS GOOD!
BE GOOD TO HEART!
DON'T TEAR OUT HEART!
HEART IS GOOD!
STRONG BEATING GOOD HEART.
Hey, is that my car?
Glottis crying in the Petrified Forest...
Oh, how I love Glottis :D
The interrogation
Manny: "Are you sure you're Mercedes Colomar?"
Meche: "Sure. Would you like to see my birth-mark?"
- "Maybe later."
- "Well hurry up, because it's going to be cremated soon."
Or responding:
"On second thought, I better go."
"Well, it's being cremated by now anyway."
Paging system
- "I just wanna know where my driver is."
- "Do you want me to have him paged?"
- "No."
- "Good, because we don't have a paging system."
Or if you answer:
- "Yes."
- "Then get Don to stop being such a cheapskate and install a paging system."
Manny's persuasion
- "Quick! There's a fire! We have to drive the cars to safety!"
Glottis: - "No, not even a fire will get me out of here. I'm stuck here forever."
- "That makes two of us."
DOD's code
"Hm... Equal opportunity in the work place is the law. Amazing. It has been hanging up for so long and he's apparently never read it."
That's funny, since Manny got "bad" clients and now his driver is gone.
College
- "On second though, I bet I could figure it out on my own."
Domino: - "That's right, Cal! Give it the old college a try! Oh, whoops. I keep forgetting. You didn't go to college, did ya?"
- "Well, that's all I wanted to ask."
- "Well kid, come back anytime you'd like to continue your education."
Well, it's no wonder that Dom calls him "kid".
Nuns
- "I've got a nun, too."
Domino: - "Bruno is a strange name, wouldn't you say?"
- "Well, you know how cruel sister could be about... nicknames!"
"There's no limit on those"
- "Do you have any more dead worms back there?"
Clown: - "You've had enough of those."
- "You said there was no limit!"
- "Well how many do you have on ya?"
- "Five."
- "Yeah, well there's no limit up to five and there's a limit."
Damn gate
- "Okay, the beasts of black river are blowing bubbles at the bottom. So let's pour on through, huh Glottis?"
- "Manny, look at that badass gate. I can't drive through that! We have to find a key!"
- "I Hjole!"
In the Blue Casket
"All right, whose ready to rock and roll!....*silence*...Maybe later then ok?"
Glottis: Hello, Manny!
Manny: Hola!
Manny: I just had a run-in with Domino and Meche. We're leaving town.
Glottis: Wha? Wha? How?
Manny: Domino's got Meche.
Manny: We're going after them tonight.
Glottis: What should I do?
Manny: Just sit here until I get a boat.
Glottis: Sit here.
Glottis: Check!
Glottis: Okay.
Manny: Later.
Glottis: Out.
Glottis: There was this one high-pitched whine it was making--really grating noise, you know?
Glottis: And I searched and searched, but I couldn't find the source of the noise, until we pulled in here.
Velasco: Was it the blower?
Glottis: No, it was Manny screaming in the back like a cat tied to a cruise missile!
Domino: If you'd just adopt the proper attitude, just watch what could happen to you!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAARGH! :D
Manny: Well... when it comes to shreds, Dom is the expert...
Probably Domino's fans didn't like that... I liked the character final scene (and Domino was one of my favorite characters), and Manny's comment with Hector was unexpected :D
Intro..
Manny: Sorry for the wait Mr Flores, I'm ready to take you now.
Celso: Take me? Take me where?
Manny: Now now, dont be nervous.
Celso: Nervous? It's just your apperance, its a little intimidating
Manny: Intimidating? Me? But I'm you friend, my name is Manny Calavera, I'm your new travel agent.
Celso: But I dont want a travel agent, I want to go home.
Manny: Heh heh heh, You can't go home Celso, your dead! But your not alone, everybody here is as dead as you.
Or at the LSA during year 4
Manny: Any messages for me?
Eva: No, calls stopped coming for you the day you left. They're STILL sending you that lingerie catalog, though.
Everytime I think about the way Glottis 'wags' his ears, I get a smile on my face :)
I've got one:
Glottis: What's that?
Manny: It's... uh... Lumbago Lemonade.
Glottis: (drinks) WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?? WHERE??
Manny: Olivia's kitchen.
Glottis: (the music before he runs) LUMBAAAAGOOOO LEMONAAADEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
Manny:Hey, ya ever wonder about that juice that canned ham comes in?
Glottis:*hurl'd*!
Glottis: Manny, I'm not sure I like driving over people.
Manny: They can't feel it. They're dead!
Glottis: Well, you're dead and I wouldn't wanna drive over you!
Manny: That's because you and I Glottis, are friends.
Glottis: Aww...Manny!
And my favorite--
Glottis: Manny, until now, we have scraped along the ground like rats. But from now on, we will soar like eagles! Eagles...on POGO STICKS!!!
I loved just making random poems in the Blue Casket. "Don't pet the cat that way," and "Turning the battleship!" were my favorites.
Glottis-Can't... breathe...
Manny-Glottis, you survived for a while without your heart, you're just gonna have to make due without lungs for a while okay?
I laughed when Merche takes off her stockings and Manny gets all nervous while looking at her boney leg.
I also love it when Manny constantly mentions the metal detector in front of Carla.
Issue #1:
Manny: It's a metal detector.
Carla: Oh, that's why I never get my hair dry.
Issue #2:
M: I think it's time for your break.
M: We could slip back to your office, tell me everything about your job... The danger...
M: The metal detectors...
Issue #3:
C: They (Prunes) have such a great texture...
M: Speaking of metal detectors...
Issue #4:
C: I don't really like long-haired cats, do you Manny...?
M: You know what I like? METAL DETECTORS.
Issue #5:
C: People think I'm stuck up, believe it or not.
M: Why? Because you wouldn't let them touch your metal detector?
Issue #6:
C: I've never went to a single dance. Can you believe it?
M: I'll take you dancing tonight if you let me borrow that thing.
Issue #7:
C: My mom said I could have been a home-coming queen if I just smiled once for a while...
M: Hey, mom begins with an M! You know what else does?
Issue #8:
C: Well maybe I would have smiled more, mom, if you haven't drank so much...!
M: I would smile more if I had a metal detector...
Issue #9:
C: Maybe if I smiled more, daddy wouldn't have left us!
M: Maybe daddy left because you wouldn't share things! (He means the metal detector as an example)
Issue #10:
C: And I would be wearing the home-coming queen crown, eating figs and...
M: And I'd be playing with your metal detector?
Issue #11:
C: NOOO, MOTHER...!!
M: Forget about that metal detector!
Issue #12:
M: Here, let me hold that metal detector while you cry!
Issue #13:
M: Looks like the detector flied into one of the cat stables.
C: Sir, if you will, place all of your belongings on the security desk...
C: And then jump out the damn window!
Issue #14:
M: You wouldn't happen to have a second metal detector around here, have you?
C: Ugh!
Issue #15:
C: Oh, ok... So where were I...?
C: Oh yeah! So, the only industry in town was figs...
M: I think you were just at the part about your metal detector.
All this metal detector thing is priceless! :lol:
Hey cool, I've never seen al this :D
The stuff Manny says on stage in the Blue Casket
Pain Killer. Pain. Killer
"So what is up with airplane food anyway? I mean...it's so small...and not that good" lols
The laughter is endless. ENDLESS, I TELL YOU!!!
I love it when you can go in Domino's office when he's still in there and "Use" the window. Manny says: I think Dom would call the company shrink if I went out the window.
I like the cut-scene where you see Domino in his car to get Meche and then Manny & Glottis spead past him in the Bone Wagon.
After you get the metal detector, and go back to visit Carla later, you step through the security gate and Carla says:
"Sir if you will place all your belongings on the desk...and then jump out the DAMN window!"
Priceless
King_Dando> That reminds me:
Manny: "It looks like a key."
Carla: "Yeah, you can analyze that with your metal detector.
Heh heh
During the year 3 cutscene where Meche holds Manny up at gunpoint
Meche: Your letting us go right now or your boy friday here gets it
Domino: Well I'd hate to see you go Manny but the lady does seem to have made up her mind
Meche: I mean it, I'll shoot him
Domino: Go ahead, he really doesn't work for me anyway
Meche:.....But I though he..well I'll shoot you then
Hey kiddles... look at my BONE SAW!
And then the angelitos start screaming. Nice one :)
Manny: Hah! "Bust-all", my ass!
Heh heh
I laughed when Manny was talking to Membrillo and there was some mention of a 'belt-buckle with someone name on it' and Manny laughs and say 'who would wear a belt-buckle with their name on it-" and of course looks down and Membrillo is wearing one.
After you pick up Bruno from the Land of the Living
Glottis: You know, Manny, I could make this car a little faster. If you wanted...
Manny: Yeah, yeah. Whatever.
Glottis: Oh yeah, slam the front into the weeds, tub the rear end, dual blowers poppin' outta the hood! Wah-wah-wah-wah-WAAAAAH! Wah-wah-wah-wah-WAAAAAAAAHAAAAHHH!
I laughed when Manny was talking to Membrillo and there was some mention of a 'belt-buckle with someone name on it' and Manny laughs and say 'who would wear a belt-buckle with their name on it-" and of course looks down and Membrillo is wearing one.
Either that, or it's Manny who wears it.
What the--? This is the first time I'm hearing about most of the lines Grim_comician posted on page three. I really have to replay the game if I've forgotten/missed that much!
When Manny/Meche are in the office, trying to work out why Meche hasnt got a double N ticket.
"Not even a teensy bit of killing?"
Manny: I'm still not getting any messages.
Tube switcher guy: I'm giving you one right now, but you can't see my hand!
Manny: You're not too big. You just have a self-image problem.
Glottis: A what?
Manny: Repeat after me. I am not fat. I am thin. Women find me attractive.
Glottis: Hey, I never said I was too fat for the ladies. The ladies like me just fine (heh heh heh).
I nearly choked when I first heard that.

As I was young playing it, it was hard to forget most quotes.
When Manny/Meche are in the office, trying to work out why Meche hasnt got a double N ticket.
"Not even a teensy bit of killing?"
Anything Manny says there is gold.
When Manny finds Domino's mouthguard and inspects it:
Manny: Euck Domino had this in his mouth.
And when he puts it in his mouth:
Manny: Euck! Well now I know what Domino tastes like.
Call me weird but I find it funny whenever Manny says 'Euck' in these two quotes.
Oh also when Manny switches on the switch at the tree in the petrified forest and Glottis starts spinning around and around and around...
Glottis: Heeey Maaaaaanny what are you dooooooooing?!
Hm, that second quote destroys every possibility for Domino/Manny slash. Don't know if I should be happy or disappointed. :D
