This movie has many classic lines, which is another topic on this board. What about your favorite sight gag? Mine has to be Miles as a robot and the orb--getting high on the orb and falling on top of one of the guests. Hilarious stuff.
Human Beings...Wowshare
There are many sight gags on this movie I love.
Woody's Miles running into everyone while in the wheelchair in the movie's first scene. And that great scene with the piano ditty in the background as Miles is being told by the doctor he has awakened in the future.
Miles' spinning around in the tree with the flying backpack then spinning around after he falls from the tree. Miles in the robot factory after he sees a robot get his head removed.....he gets into that fight with the guy and ends up smothering him with bleu cheese! Miles' fight with the farmer in the overgrown vegetable patch, slipping on the big banana peel!
This is just for starters..I don't want to shut everyone out!
Scrabbler, those are great too. I will have to add one more (since there are so many in this movie)---Miles using the orgasmatron as a hiding place and coming out with his clothes ripped, smoky and with that smile on his face. Pure hilarity.

I like the running gag with the police bazooka.BOOM.Ha ha!
shareAs a girl I had an uncontrollable laughing fit when Miles was slipping on the giant banana peel.
shareThe joke is on two levels: it's funny.
As a joke, it's so old and obvious, you
can't believe he used it.

shareI love it when the security police are raiding the house on stilts and the robot butlers are offering them cups of coffee.

Miles in the blue inflatable suit, fluttering up and around in the air and then motoring across the lake. priceless!
shareThe testosterone fueled, super banana has to be my favourite! Has there ever been a bigger banana in the history of cinema?

I like the bit where Miles grabs a jet pack, but it flies away before he can put it on!
Or that robot tailor that sounds like Jackie Mason.
Or that scene where he tries to get away in a futuristic automobile. Miles presses the wrong button and the hood on the car flies off!
Miles: This is a picture of Billy Graham. He knows God, personally.
There are lots of these too!
I loved Miles climbing the space age car rather than stepping into it - that happens early on when the doctors who revived him are trying to help him in.
Miles getting high on the orb and fighting the other guests for it.
Miles try to fly using the propeler contraption and ending up stuck in a tree whirring around.
The field with giant vegetables and fruit.
The nose getting squashed by the steam roller.

I dream of my hair falling out
Just watched this again last night (thank you Netflix Instant!) and had forgotten all about the electric wheelchair shtick shortly after the scientists wake him up! Especially hilarious because it's obvious that he told the actors to just act out the scene and he ad-libbed all his wheelchair maneuvers!
😁
I like when he goes to 'confession' and he wins a kewpie doll as a prize!

Miles versus the sentient pudding in the kitchen. Specifically, after he thinks he's defeated it and relaxes, and then it comes at him again.
