Funny / Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City

Go To

  • "It’s Jill's Sandwich now!", being a goofy moment that serves as an homage to Barry’s narmiest line from the original game.
  • After encountering a zombified crow, Jill immediately shoots it dead. The funny part is that it was right next to Wesker, who threatens to take her gun away. Extra funny is how Chris gently reaches over and lowers her gun.
  • Leon's first scene in the film is him waking up tangled in bed covers with the world's worst bedhead. His next one is him passed out at a restaurant counter while Wesker balances a ketchup bottle on his head.
  • A nice little reminder that this movie is set at the dawn of the internet age, when Claire mentions being on a chatroom.
    Chris: What the fuck is a chatroom?
    Claire: It's a place on the internet where people chat.
  • Speaking of the 90s, there's Chief Irons' sarcastic rattling off of 90s references like Planet Hollywood, Blockbuster, and Journey. The Journey reference becomes funnier since later on in the film when Irons is attempting to escape, he is listening to "Anyway You Want It"
    Irons: Rent a movie at Blockbuster, get cozy on the couch… Put on some Journey. Steve Perry’s voice, what it does to a woman’s heart, am I right?
    • Also, Vickers playing Snake on his cell phone while waiting in the helicopter.
  • In the briefing room, Jill asks the STARS officers what would be the worst way to die, giving being swallowed whole by a snake or eaten alive by a great white shark as examples. Chris tells Jill that she’s a freak and that he “plans on dying peacefully, in bed, snuggled in Wesker’s big burly arms.”
  • While Chief Irons informs the STARS officers about the absence of Marini and Dooley, Leon calmly asks what’s a Spencer Mansion. Irons first starts explaining calmly before he abruptly shouts “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE, LEON?!” and that him calling “everyone” to the briefing room doesn’t include Leon.
    Leon: What’s a Spencer Mansion?
    Irons: “Well, as I think most of you know, Oswell Spencer was the creator of Umbrella Corporation. And the mansion was his home until the year of his death in… WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE, LEON?!
    Leon: “You said everyone into the briefing room, so here I am…
    Irons: I didn’t mean YOU, you moron.
  • It's just...a little crush...
  • As G-Birkin has Chris dead to rights, he's saved by the timely arrival of Leon with the series trademark Ricket Launcher Coup de Grace... Fired in a narrow train car and reasonably scaring people shitless almost as much as Birkin did. When Chris wonders where the hell the launcher came from, Leon mentions it was in the first class car. And well, of course Umbrella considered it a valid security measure to risk blowing up an entire train car with their experiments getting out of hand.
    • After the fight calms down, Jill re-enters the car after trying to get the engine running again and sees the complete and utter mess left behind between Birkin tearing holes in the roof and Leon nearly blowing half the car to kingdom come.
      "Holy shit... What the fuck did you guys do to this train?"
