The comical relief moments in this are so funny!


Kind of like in Saving Private Ryan, that has some absolutely hilarious moments of comical relief, Black Hawk Down has 'em too. I laughed my ass off when that clumsy American soldier slipped on the threshold, spooking a kid that was camping by the door to shoot down his daddy with like 30 rounds of AK ammo! Hilarious! I'm sure I wasn't the only one doubling over in laughter at that. Gotta love a war movie that loosens up at times and allow some humor.

The comical relief moments for me:
"Are we supposed to come to them (the Humvees), or are they supposed to come to us?"
Same scene:

Nelson: The Humvees ain't coming back for us, dude.

Nelson: Twombly! The convoy's leaving! Hey Twombly!
Twombly: What?
Nelson: I think they've forgotten us!
Twombly: WHAT?
Nelson: It doesn't matter.

Yurek: [Looks at Nelson strangely] What's wrong with him?
Twombly: Oh, he's deaf. My fault.

Blackburn: Hey man, there's a line.
"Hoot": I know.
Blackburn: And this isn't the back of it.
"Hoot": Yeah, I know.

Cliff Wolcott: Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Cliff "Elvis" Wolcott, I'll be your pilot this afternoon. Federal regulations designate this a "non-smoking" Black Hawk helicopter. For those of you who have the "Mogadishu Frequent Flyer" program, you'll be earning a hundred free credits this afternoon, and as always, the air sickness bags are located in the seat-back, in front of you.

[after Nelson, Twombly, and Yurek grouped together; talking about equipment]
Twombly: Never mind. You brought NOD, right?
Yurek: No, I did not bring it. You know why? Because you said: "You won't need that dude, we'll be back in a half-hour."
Twombly: [feeling guilty] I wasn't exactly saying that to you.

I liked the part when Oddball calls Uncle Leo from the cafe behind German lines and goes "Woof, woof, woof!" Also the part when Willard and Cowboy get covered in excrement when the satchel charge blew up the outhouse and Crap Game asks if it makes 'em homesick.

reply

Nah the best part is when General Colt is listening on the radio wanting to give them medals.

The funniest part for me is Pilla impersonating Steele:

Speak up, you say this is your safety? Well, this is my boot, son, and it will fit up your ass with the proper amount of force!


We are at the ten yard line here, men, you understand? Can you count? One, two, ten.

reply

And then Steele puts his arm around Pilla's shoulder...
