I remember in Revenge of the Sith, when the actor playing Vader yells "nooooooooo", at what is supposed to be the emotional climax of the trilogy, the theater roared in laughter.

Do you have other examples?

My friend and I saw Deep Impact in the theater, when the plan fails and the comet fragments are still going to hit earth, there is a dramatic moment when they explain to projected impact sites. One in the ocean and one ... in Canada. For whatever reason my friend and I both burst into laughter when they said Canada. The whole theater turned to glare at us.

Canada is an entire category! When they announced the 4 astronauts for whatever mission, 3 of them had job descriptions and 1 was described as Canadian.

That's because, to get into the American space programme, a Canadian must know four jobs, speak two languages, and work for half the pay; and wrestle moose for fun.

And wear a toque.
