>>92841331
gets TOADsted?
I don't know. What?
>>92841331
I watched Honest Trailers today too.
It gets huge?
>>92841331
OP goes full retard and creates a cancer theard. Again.
>>92841331
There's LITERALLY nothing wrong with this joke
All you spergs who expect a pun are retarded.
She's saying how powerful lightning is.
That's the joke.
That there is no punchline.
Lightning just fucks everything up
It's one of those jokes that are a joke because it's not a joke
Like
>A man gets into a car crash. What was the last thing through his mind?
>The steering wheel
Same type of joke.
IT TURNS THE FRIGGIN' FROGS GAY!

People just mock it because it sounds out of place. Originally Toad was supposed to be a lot more chatty and annoying and spout random frog facts every time he showed up, this scene was meant to be a STFU to Toad. But because they cut out all of those lines it doesn't have the build up and falls flat.

>When you write an entire script draft and that's the only line that gets used.
Being Whedon is suffering.

>But because they cut out all of those lines it doesn't have the build up and falls flat.
How?
It's just a boast
You don't elaborate set up for someone to blow someone up and say something cocky
>>92841966
Because it wasn't written to be a boast, it's specifically meant as a fuck you to Toad for being a mouthy asshole. At no other point in the movies does Storm just start bragging out of nowhere like that because no other character sets her up to do so like Toad was meant to,
>>92841331
It croaks?
>>92841846
Wrong!

No, see, that joke is a joke...it has a punchline
The humor is in the fact that people associate the mind with the human head, a steering wheel can't go through your mind, but it might go through your head in a car crash
That is where the humor comes from, the punchline in unexpected, punchlines are meant to take you by surprise, there is no joke in the line OP is quoting
>>92841331
It becomes Throg
>>92844113
Anti humor is where the joke is the subversion of the expectation of a punch line.
Why'd the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
>>92841331
>>92841966
But that's the point, out of context it's a completely random thing for Storm to say. But if Toad had spent the whole movie boasting about how great his powers are, as had been in the original script, it makes sense because she's telling an obnoxious douche to shut up about his mediocre powers.
what a shit movie. can i use this thread to rant about that shit movie? fuck brian singer. literally the only two things that move had going for it was hugh jackman being cast as wolverine (even though he was too tall) and patrick stewart being cast as professor x (even though he is not american). every other character was miscast and mischaracterized. the "x-men" were apparently three people; two girls and one guy; maybe they should have called themselves the "x-girls". then theyd get 100% on rotten tomatoes. i think i hate most how the movie just wasted sabertooth. if all they needed was a dumb brutish henchman, they should have used barbarus or some shit. i cant believe we have been stuck with this shit for 17 years and they still wont cleanly reboot it.

He spent the whole movie going "did you know that toads...?". The joke is that she was mocking his habit by giving her own "toad fact".
