00:00Well, well, well. A royal flush!
00:03You're bluffing!
00:04Am I?
00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the Top 10 Funniest DreamWorks Movie Moments.
00:13Ha ha ha ha ha! Why are we laughing?
00:19Number 10. Melman's Near-Death Confession. Madagascar escaped to Africa.
00:24Wanna meet somebody? You know, settle down, have a relationship.
00:28I can see that.
00:29What, it's premature?
00:30Like, dating?
00:32Yeah, dating.
00:34There are no shortage of funny moments in a series like Madagascar, but this one always gets us.
00:40As he finds himself in a quickly plummeting plane,
00:43Melman the giraffe seizes his near-death experience as an opportunity to do something brave,
00:49confess his love to Gloria the hippo.
00:51Seconds after his big declaration, however, the camera pans to reveal Gloria is fast asleep snoring away.
00:58I love you, Gloria! I always have!
01:01While the hippo of his dreams may not have heard him, all of Melman's friends certainly have.
01:06The looks they exchange are hilarious, and Melman's immediate attempt to save face is the cherry on top.
01:12Like you love the beach, or a good book, or the beach.
01:17Number 9. Perrito squares up against Goldie and the Three Bears.
01:21Puss in Boots, The Last Wish
01:23When the audience is first introduced to Perrito, the tiny teacup mutt,
01:27we see that he's a happy-go-lucky optimistic character,
01:31especially in contrast to the slightly cynical Puss in Boots.
01:34I have my own little corner.
01:36Congratulations.
01:37I just come up here for the food and the friends.
01:40Mostly, mostly the food.
01:42This leads him into a slightly sticky situation
01:45when he mistakes Goldie and the Three Bears' confrontation for some sort of roast battle.
01:50He unleashes what we imagine is a rather scalding series of insults,
01:54though we can't hear most of it because it's so bad it has to be censored.
01:59Bunch of knuckle-dragging, honey-scrounging, grub-munching, monkey-nugget, and your snooter!
02:09Hearing such foul language come out of an adorable little guy
02:12makes for an awesome, if unexpected, turn of events.
02:16This is great. Razzing and revving and barbing and pooping and snooting.
02:21Oh, I wish I had a family like this.
02:24Number 8. My tenders! Kung Fu Panda
02:27Kung Fu Panda, like many Dreamworks classics,
02:30is full of light-hearted physical comedy done right.
02:33Master Flying Rhino's armor with authentic battle damage!
02:38Whoa! The Sword of Heroes!
02:41Said to be so sharp you can cut yourself just by looking at it.
02:44Ow!
02:45Although the audience roots for the lovable Poe,
02:48we can't help but chuckle at his misadventures,
02:51especially early on his journey to becoming the Dragon Warrior.
02:54One of Poe's first physical challenges in the series is going through an obstacle course.
02:59Let's begin.
03:00Wait, wait, wait.
03:02What?
03:05Now?
03:06Yes, now.
03:07Naturally, with no formal training,
03:09he stumbles from section to section until near the end
03:12when he's repeatedly thwacked by rotating spiked wooden clubs,
03:16one of which catches his tenders.
03:18Poe's horribly pained reaction followed by more whacking
03:21almost immediately creates the perfect slapstick moment.
03:28My tenders.
03:32Number 7. Toothless and Astrid go for a ride
03:35How to train your dragon
03:37In an attempt to show Astrid the true nature of dragons,
03:40Hiccup takes her for a ride with Toothless.
03:43By this point, however, Toothless has already become pretty protective over Hiccup,
03:48and he doesn't take kindly to the way Astrid treats him.
03:51So he decides to make the trip, uh, memorable.
03:55What is wrong with you?
03:56Bad dragon.
03:59He's not usually like this.
04:01Oh, no.
04:03Toothless's antics combined with Hiccup's commentary and Astrid's screams
04:08make this an eventful watch full of giggling.
04:11Toothless, what are you doing? We need her to like us.
04:17And now the spinning.
04:20Thank you for nothing, you useless reptile.
04:24Eventually, once Toothless hears remorse from Astrid,
04:27he lets up on the rollercoaster maneuvering
04:29and the ride evolves from chaotic to calm,
04:31giving this funny scene a sweet ending.
04:34Alright, I admit it. This is pretty cool.
04:38It's amazing.
04:41He's amazing.
04:45Lord Farquaad meets his bachelorette, Shrek.
04:49Some of the most entertaining moments in Shrek
04:52come from its sharp parody and critique of pop culture.
04:55In this scene, the magic mirror takes on the role of dating show presenter,
05:00introducing a list of eligible bachelorettes to Lord Farquaad.
05:04Mirror, mirror on the wall, is this not the most perfect kingdom of them all?
05:09Well, technically, you're not a king.
05:12Uh, Thelonious, you were saying?
05:16What I mean is, uh, you're not a king yet.
05:19The first two candidates are rather recognizable, of course,
05:22but it's their descriptions that always crack us up.
05:25We love a modern retelling.
05:27So, will it be bachelorette number one?
05:30Bachelorette number two?
05:31Or bachelorette number three?
05:42In addition to the magic mirror's announcer voice,
05:45the game show music and that one guy clapping in the back
05:48really tie the whole scene together.
05:50Princess Fiona.
05:52If you like me, then come on and dance.
05:55Princess Fiona.
05:59She's perfect.
06:01Number five, Poe versus the Stairs, Kung Fu Panda 2.
06:06When Poe and the Furious Five are captured by Lord Shen's army,
06:10the panda faces one foe he's apparently never quite conquered.
06:14Ah, my old enemy.
06:22Stairs.
06:24As Lord Shen waits at the top of the stairs for everyone to arrive,
06:28we hear grunting and rumbling,
06:30implying that Poe isn't necessarily losing the battle,
06:33but perhaps not quite winning it either.
06:36In the end, pity is taken on him,
06:38and he's afforded some help to the top.
06:40Thanks for carrying me those last few flights.
06:43Okay, I threw up a little bit on the third floor.
06:46Someone might want to clean that up.
06:48Is this some sort of evil janitor or something?
06:50Black's line delivery is comedy gold,
06:52and his little spiel at the end,
06:54including his exchange with Lord Shen,
06:56is simply fantastic.
06:58We come in, and the weapon is tiny.
07:00Surprise, it's big.
07:01And then the lady over here, I think it's a guy.
07:03He's got a big...
07:04Whoa!
07:05The only reason you're still alive
07:08is that I find your stupidity mildly amusing.
07:13Number four, Stars Can't Do It, The Road to El Dorado.
07:17Right as Zekulkan is about to perform a human sacrifice,
07:20Miguel and Tulio think fast on their feet
07:23to prevent it from happening,
07:25resulting in one of the funniest
07:26and most memorable interactions in The Road to El Dorado.
07:30What predicts fate, if not the stars?
07:32Tulio thinks on his feet,
07:34and Miguel is right there to back him up
07:36with an almost bored confidence.
07:38The stars are not in position for this tribute.
07:42Like he says, stars can't do it.
07:47Not today.
07:48This whole movie managed to infuse stellar humor
07:51in a plot that might otherwise feature
07:53extremely grim moments,
07:55and this is a perfect example.
07:57Don't worry about it.
07:59To err is human.
08:00To forgive...
08:01My lords, may the people of El Dorado
08:04offer you our tribute.
08:06These two make for a pair whose antics
08:08we never get tired of watching.
08:10My lords, does this please you?
08:15Yes, very nice.
08:16Certainly acceptable.
08:17It'll do.
08:18Number three.
08:19How do you like Ken now?
08:21B-movie.
08:22B-movie is so unserious and unhinged
08:24that we really can't be surprised
08:26when it delivers gems like this.
08:28Barry was looking at your resume,
08:30and he agreed with me that eating with chopsticks
08:33isn't really a special skill.
08:36You think I don't see what you're doing?
08:38One of its most memorably chaotic scenes
08:40is when Ken, Vanessa's boyfriend,
08:42attempts to kill Barry B. Benson
08:44by spraying him with an air freshener,
08:46only for Barry to cheerily reply,
08:48I love the smell of flowers.
08:50With Patrick Warburton at the mic,
08:52we're in stitches as Ken quickly goes from zero
08:55or maybe about 15 to 100,
08:58quickly constructing a homemade flamethrower
09:00with the air freshener.
09:02The ensuing chase around the bathroom
09:04is a masterclass in slapstick comedy.
09:06He's just a little bee,
09:08and he happens to be the nicest bee I've met.
09:11Nicest bee I've met in a long time.
09:14Long time?
09:16What are you talking about?
09:18Are there other bugs in your life?
09:20Number two, Friar's Fat Boy Pit Stop.
09:22Shrek 2.
09:24When the fairy godmother sternly says,
09:26you forced me to do something
09:28I really don't want to do,
09:30while glowering at Princess Fiona's dad,
09:32King Harold, the tension is palpable
09:34as the king prepares for the worst.
09:36Stop the car!
09:39Harold.
09:41You forced me to do something
09:44I really don't want to do.
09:46Of course, this being a DreamWorks movie,
09:48this scene is expertly played for laughs
09:51as the fairy godmother turns to place an order
09:54for two renaissance wraps, no mayo,
09:56and chili rings at Friar's Fat Boy.
09:58My diet is ruined.
10:00I hope you're happy.
10:02Okay, two renaissance wraps, no mayo, chili rings.
10:05I'll have the medieval meal.
10:07Yeah, one medieval meal.
10:09And Harold, curly fries?
10:11The ultra-quick, unexpected pivot
10:13from dramatic confrontation to fast food order
10:15is what gives this moment its charm.
10:17So Fiona and Charming will be together?
10:21Yes.
10:23Oh, believe me, Harold, it's what's best.
10:25Not only for your daughter,
10:29but for your kingdom.
10:31Before we unveil our top pick,
10:33here are a few honorable mentions.
10:35Are we there yet? Shrek 2.
10:37We probably sounded exactly like this
10:39in the backseat of our parents' car.
10:41Are we there yet?
10:43Hey, that's not funny.
10:45That's really immature.
10:47See, this is why nobody likes ogres.
10:49All right, you're lost.
10:51I'm gonna just stop talking.
10:53Finally.
10:55Beethoven, The Dancing Legend, Mr. Peabody, and Sherman.
10:57The quick cut and sheer absurdity
10:59is comedic genius.
11:05Honorary Tooth Fairies,
11:07Rise of the Guardians.
11:09This scene is equal parts hilarious
11:11and heartwarming.
11:13It's like you're a bit of a Brumby, ain't I?
11:15This piece of pie.
11:21That's my tool.
11:23Don't tell Monkey.
11:25Kung Fu Panda.
11:27Po's commitment to securing a snack is unparalleled.
11:35Don't tell Monkey.
11:37Red Light Surprise,
11:39Mr. Peabody and Sherman.
11:41We'd be just as surprised
11:43as the taxi driver.
11:45Hey, Einstein, it's a red light.
11:47Hey, I'm walking here.

12:03Number 1.
12:05I Need a Hero,
12:07Shrek 2.
12:09In this fantastic musical sequence,
12:11the Fairy Godmother breaks into an emotional
12:13cover of Bonnie Tyler's
12:15Holding Out for a Hero.
12:17Late at night, I toss and I turn
12:19and I dream
12:21of what I need.
12:27Hit it!
12:29I need a hero.
12:31I need a hero.
12:33Her over-the-top theatrical style
12:35combined with the exaggerated choreography,
12:37the overall absurdity of the entire show,
12:39and the simultaneous commotion
12:41ensuing just outside of the castle walls
12:43highlight the Shrek franchise
12:45at its peak as a parody
12:47of traditional fairytale tropes.
12:49I need a hero.
12:51I'm holding out for a hero.
12:53Don't pee.
12:55I need a hero.
12:57And it's gotta be soon
12:59and he's gotta be larger than life.
13:01Although the Fairy Godmother
13:03is the star of this scene,
13:05every participating character pulls their weight,
13:07making this a culmination of
13:09comedic talent.
13:11He's gotta be fresh from the fight.
13:13I need a hero.
13:15Stop!
13:21Hey, you!
13:23Get away from my wife!
13:25Shrek?
