Sleeper Memories: (May be a lot of repetition of what has already been said.)
Past Archives:
Bill Graham: He had a personal relationship…
Richard Nixon: He must have committed a terrible crime, because all info erased.
Howard Cosell: When someone had committed a terrible crime against the state, they had to listen to this man, as punishment. (Woody concurs.)
Woody tries to demonstrate how funny “chattering teeth” can be.
Being chased by police, Woody can barely keep ahead while trying desperately to get a turbo-prop device off the ground, while furiously flapping his arms to aid it. He finally manages to do so and to elude them, but he gets stuck in a tree. Then, instead of the prop rotating, it is Woody rotating in the opposite direction.
Police try to fire bazookas, with disastrous results. For them, that is.
When he goes past a farm with greatly enlarged farm animals, he deadpans, “That’s a big chicken.”
While the researchers try to assure the police that nothing illegal is going on, Woody can barely start walking again.
The Volkswagen starts right up, after centuries. But even funnier: Everything, especially homes and cars is radically different. But McDonald’s is exactly the same.
The tailor: “All right, we’ll take it in.”
We’re doctors; we’re not impostors”
“Check the cell structure!” is repeated by Woody and the Diane, while dancing about, and either clapping hands or snapping fingers. This is right after the H.A.L.-like computer has recommended it, and they have no clue how to do it.
H.A.L.: “That would be a very serious mistake.”
Gun held up to the nose, making the attackers freeze in their tracks for a while. Woody decides to shoot, but the gun is a fake, and only displays the word “BANG!”
The nose is thrown in front of some sort of futuristic “steam roller” and when it is completely flattened, the men pick it up and examine it, perhaps deciding whether or not to despair.
I’m probably not remembering a lot.
One friend from college (I had just graduated) reported that he started laughing almost as soon as the movie started, and that he didn’t stop until the end. It was only movie he could say that about. And, while I can’t make the same claim, it was one of the few movies I came away from remembering one funny scene after another!
