There's a difference between a joke involving farts and a fart being treated as a joke on its own.
FACTS
like in captain underpants that 1 fart song. it counts as a fart joke to me instead of just a fart. edit: WHAT THE HELL!? WHY DOES THIS HAVE SO MANY LIKES?!?! THIS IS MY MOST POPULAR COMMENT
To me it works if one of the voice actors accidentally farted so everyone started laughing, and they work it into the movie as a reminder of the fun times. But forced in are just dumb.
This^^^
Trying my hardest to not laugh at these comments
Toilet humour is alright in small doses. But if it gets overplayed past the point of being annoying, THEN it's a major issue.
Absolutely. If I learn anything from Spongebob SquarePant's "Ripped Pants", it shows that repeating the same joke all over again means people are getting tired of it to the point of losing its charm on what makes it funny at first.
it doesnt become a major issue, it becomes the writer's barely disguised fetish
Reminds me of 2010 Nickelodeon

Fart jokes are the jump scares of comedy. Yeah sure they might get you sometimes, but their cheap, easy, and become tiring VERY quickly.
I blame John K. for bringing fart jokes into animation.
Puerile humor will always have its place. The earliest discovered joke was from ancient Sumeria, about a concubine farting in your lap. Is it crude? Hell yes. But iirc, the context of the "joke" is that a concubine is to be presentable and flawless at all times, and her betraying a gross bodily function is unexpected, embarrassing, and thus, kinda funny. I mean, sure I don't expect or need everyone to necessarily "get it", but the fact that our anthropology of comedy literally starts with a fart joke until further notice, means we all have been, and will forever be a bit childish forever on some level. And that is fine.
@@viscountrainbows2857 I didn’t mean that all fart jokes are bad, when I said they’re like jump scares, I meant it more in the way that they can be effective; it’s just the amount of them that becomes a issue, it’s kinda like any other joke, first couple of times it’s funny, but hear it enough and you’re sure to grow tired of it eventually.
@@evanrutledge-sz4yo Yeah I feel ya; I was just speaking my piece aloud cos I'm a 🤓, ha. But overuse of anything will render it tiresome. It's the same with music when all the songs sound the same, and not even effectively. Like if a hardcore band relies entirely too much on samey breakdowns, or a hip hop artist makes every single song in the same flow/tempo; I'm just not fw a whole album to the face of it like that unless they have a formula that somehow works.
just like a fart hehe
I always hate toilet humor, but to be honest, one day I was talking to my mom about some deep emotional problems I've been having and we've been relating and trying to help each other and in the middle of this, I am crying, my dog farts. We both just started laughing. The juxtaposition is what made us laugh, not the fact that he farted.
Exactly- the tonal whiplash is something that can make it funny. Same way as a Mr. Rogers type person suddenly saying "Shit."
Where are your videos?

My friend's cat once died and we were all being heartbroken about it. Her other cat proceeds to come into her room and let out one of the nastiest farts I've ever smelled. We all ran out of that room laughing our asses off.
It just works well in some odd situations.

Even as a toddler I despised this humor. Am I the only one who got HORRID second hand embarrassment when it appeared? Like, I actively dreaded it and wanted to hide under my seat when I was watching it with my parents. I still do to this day.
God finally someone gets it! I hate toilet/fart based humor. It completely takes me out the movie and makes her cover my ears from sear embarrassment.
I know this humor is meant for children but even when I was younger I never laughed. None of the kids I knew laughed.
It’s always been and icky thing for me
YES A THOUSAND TIMES! I also as a child despised fart/toilet humor, made me cringe so badly
Yes! You're not alone
I fucking hate it
Yes, have hated toilet humor ever since I was a kid. Just cheap, throw away, propped up humor.
The scene from _King of the Hill_ where Hank wanted to listen to the "new generation of music" but ends up listening to toilet sounds is a great example of a fart joke done right.
OMFG! Totally one of the best fart jokes in history xD
Complete agree 😅
Kinda represents a lot of music in todays time perfectly
Reminds me of that one South park episode
@@CheetoHacker1057 Ehhh, not really. It's less "farts" & more dumb low pitched pump like sounds that don't sound energetic at all.

I think the kind I hate the most is the "wet" fart that sounds like they're shitting themselves.
Yeah what's with that
Fart with extra reverb.mp4

That's the only one that makes me laugh

The best part of the fart joke in Robots is that the street lamp doesn't "pass out" like you said, there is a white chalk outline where he fell as it fades to morning. He died.
That’s so funny though
The only fart joke I thought was funny was in Adventure Time when Finn and Jake were hiding from a bunch of flesh-eating skeletons. Finn whispered to Jake "we gotta be really really quiet" but Jake out of nowhere throughout a big blow, giving away their hiding spot. Finn look at him "Jake" and he said "I thought it would be funny!"
I knew it be pointed out, that one stuck out to me
That’s the only fart joke I can get behind. A lot of toilet humor to me is just gross.
Or when they though LSP was being murdered in the murder mystery episode because she was screaming but she was actually just using the bathroom!!
@@kennethmorales7559 yes! That was funny XD

I think in the right context, with the right delivery, it can elicit some chuckles. But most of the time, it's just annoying.

The part that really got me with the Robots fart scene was the tape outline of the lamppost that passed out following everything.
Lol yeah that reveal of him being dead was hilarious 🤣
That was the best fart joke ever! 🤣

The best fart-related joke that I’ve seen is from Gumball, where Gumball and Darwin are trying to prevent these two plant people from buying their neighbor’s house. One of their plans involves playing this sound-effect keyboard, and when it starts accidentally playing fart noises, the plant people think it’s vegans.

If Toilet Humour is done in the right way, it can be funny.

@@kittys0ft Cheers. The oldest documented joke is 4,000 years old and dates from the Ancient Sumerians. It is a joke about a young girl sitting in the kings lap... and farting. I think the gag is getting old. Maybe winking is the way to go?
Aww that's so cute!
I think some of the jokes in Shrek deserve more credit, not for being laugh-out loud funny, but for contributing to character development. Like in the first movie where Fiona burps and it's this whole "huh, she and Shrek aren't so different after all" moment, or in the second where they bond over burps to the annoyance of King Harold
Shrek did it funny
Which fart joke in shrek?
@@psnVoLT best one was when the 2 shreks babies burp and the 3rd one farts and donkey ugly mutant child breaths fire and it lights the fart on fire 😂
the only fart joke i ever laughed at was jake's in adventure time,comes out of nowhere because they had do a sneak attack a group of enemies on a cave with a lot of reverb, and the excuse was "i thought it would be funny"
I was think of that exact one when I noticed the title of this video!
we love jake so its ok
“Say, what’s that pocket for.”
“Oh yeah, Jake’s here. Sup Jake”
Adventure time fart jokes typically land pretty well and get a good laugh
THIS ONE IS SO TRUE
When I was kid, a lot of these kinds of jokes made me uncomfortable. Idk why.
I just thought they were gross and not in a funny way.
@@mattwolf7698 same
What about burping and screaming jokes @@mattwolf7698
I feel like a fart can be used in a joke if the fart is not the only punchline. I watched the movie "Robots" recently, and one of the dumbest jokes in the movie was when all the characters were doing armpit farts for some reason. Then another character lets loose a real fart that everyone gags too. The joke was quickly followed up with someone outside falling over before we get a time skip to the morning. The guy that fell over the night before was replaced with a detective outline, which i found hilarious. The fart wasn't funny, but the police outline wouldn't have been as funny as it was without it
I always thought Anna being gassy was more like her needing to burp? Which if she's elated, would make a little more sense because she could feel tight in the chest when she's happy.
Plus didn't she pat her chest? Usually you do that to get a burp out
As someone who is generally pretty unimpressed with toilet humor, the best fart joke I’ve ever seen was actually a meme video. It genuinely made me laugh, loudly, and to this day it never fails to make me cackle, something no other fart joke I can think of has made me do.
And it’s the Metroman clip in this very video.
I remembered it and it made me laugh 🤣👍

Sometimes a fart joke can be so incredibly unfunny that is loops back around to being funny purely for ironic value
uh oh stinky
I think the Captain Underpants underpants movie has the single best utilization of this mostly atrocious type of humor. Does it overuse it? _Yes._ Is it funny in most cases? Surprisingly, also yes! This kind of lower denominator humor ties very well with the personality of the main characters, the entire story and concept of it all, and most importantly, the Dav Pilkey children's story books it's based after. Also in the movie itself we can see the older and more serious characters exclaiming how stupid this kind of humor is, so it has a lot of self-awareness on top of just good comedy too. But that's just me, I too despise ''potty humor, the lowest form of wit'' in most cases too, especially the most uninspired ones, which is unsurprisingly the majority.
It makes me sad people wrote it off just as a stupid kids movie when it was genuinely funny in its writing and joke executions without overstaying its welcome. The movie knows its stupid and silly and revels in that rather than acts above others for it.
Fr (i love that movie idc a fuck what ppl say)
The fart with reverb is basically the only kind of fart joke I find funny... And its less because of the fart itself and more to do with the ridiculousness of the reverb.
This man made a half hour long video about fart jokes. I respect that.

Fart jokes peaked in the early 2000s when the Kids Choice Awards did an entire category called 'Favorite Fart in a Movie.' Scooby-Doo won that one.

I always giggle at that scene to this day 😭 the exaggerated physical acting, the friends walking in, their absolute COMMITMENT to this challenge as if they're not in the middle of a climactic villain fight scene, it's comedy gold to me
Even as a child I was usually disgusted or unsettled by potty humor. I never understood why all the other kids found it so funny
Same. I really don’t understand why people find it funny?
The Blazing Saddles bit is funny because one of the most common foods they had back then, which could travel easily without going bad, was beans. Often times about all they had was beans and dried meat, so the result is a cacophony of toots. The scene is set up with lots of shots of them eating this specific food with over the top flatulence as a result- not to be realistic but for humor. Basically the beans are the catalyst for the joke in the scene.
It's more of a time period joke than an actual fart joke 😂 It probably was like that at the campfire when all you had to eat was food that made you gassy
My favorite fart joke wasn't even a joke, it wasn't in a movie. I watched a TikTok of a dude watching Oppenheimer and right during the explosion during the silent part someone let a little toot out and that was funny.
Similar; I was at a youth shelter and early during bedtime, I swear, this one kid ripped THEE longest and loudest fart that you legitimately only hear in fucken movies. Like, it was the post-surgery sort of fart but, irl, and it had BASS to it. It was like, I feel a straight ten or so seconds, and immediately after we sounded like someone was killing us at the comedy club or someshit. I swear I nearly died of laughter especially when one of the staff came over with a deodorizer spray and carpet bombed the area with it 😹 Like dawg, the funniest fart in any movie, show, song, whatever that I have ever witnessed... will never beat that absolute Godzilla hurricane of wind breaking
@@viscountrainbows2857 oh god 💀😂
Literally the last video I watched had that in it
Fart jokes, or just plain farts, can be funny under the right circumstances. It takes a lot of creativity and excellent writing (as a joke), or it takes timing if it's just someone around you farting.
A bad part of fart (and dick) jokes it they are used mostly by hacks and doofuses attempting to force humor or thinking the one fart joke in their movie is hilarious. There are exceptions, like Pumba imo. It fits him as a character and it's not over used with him in the first movie.
Holy shit! Also Shaun of the Dead!!! Me and my wife still pull the, "I'm sorry, (spouse's name)" all the time!

I remember being about seven, watching trolls, and being annoyed whenever the glitter troll came on screen. I knew he was only there to fart, I knew it was coming, and it just wasn't funny.
Attack on Titan has a masterfully executed fart joke where Shadis asks what the commotion is after hearing Jean and Eren’s altercation and Mikasa blames it on Sasha farting. It’s so unexpected from Mikasa of all characters and quite a shift in tone from the drama of most of the rest of the series. A first time viewer would never see it coming.
Honestly, that was quite funny, because you dont expect Mikasa to say that.

Sing 1 did.

@@PussInBootsTheLastWishFan2003 True. Sing 2 was the first one I saw though. My daughter couldn't stop watching it. We tried Sing 1 a few months later, and she can't sit through it. xD
@@TheDoctorinspectorI'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought Sing 2 was miles better. I could barely finish the first movie, it took very long to gather the courage to sit through it all. In Sing 2, I at least like the lynx lady, involved with the gorilla's side story (a great way to show how adaptive teaching methods are important - I appreciate it, as a neurodivergent person who changed school to better suit how my brain works). And Poscha is alright. Nice to see a spoiled brat not be entirely blamed when it was her father who failed her, and she tried to be better. I also appreciated how Rosita's husband wasn't angry that she was co-working with another male pig and being friendly (which is present in the first one too). Ash helping the lion was cool. My critisism is that Buster Moon never really learned his lesson properly. He made the same mistakes as in the first one. So glad the darn mouse wasn't back, hated his arrogance and the scene where he stopped a woman who ignored his performance. Ugh. Never stop a woman like that.
@@iclynnx i didnt watch it because there was no mike rip strong solider
I think the best "fart" joke was from Despicable Me with "I said DART gun."
I think the logic behind the one from Blazing Saddles is that in a lot of Westerns, cowboys would be shown eating canned beans and almost nothing else, so the movie is just showing what would probably happen.
99% of the time i despise toilet humor so much, but i honestly i think for Pumbaa and Shrek it works very well because of how it's framed and executed. the noise used as a fart for Pumbaa is not some stock sound or imitation of a realistic fart, it sounds more like it's a brass instrument, which makes it fit in with the song/instrumentals going on. it's also the only time (iirc and i hope i do because i love TLK) it happens in the movie. it's a strange predicament for the character that makes it kinda tragic but funny in that ridiculous way at the same time.
for Shrek it was first used to show that he's gross and loves it, and it then becomes a throughline in his family, a weird but for his kind fitting symbol of connection, and especially with him and Fiona i think it's a weirdly charming display of acceptance of the gross stuff you will experience when being in a relationship, and not making a big deal out of it. it also shows they're on the same wavelength and truly made for each other.
Which joke from shrek and which joke from pumbaa?

this is the line ever
I can’t believe I would woke up one morning and hear these beautiful words.
Thunder Pants is a movie that shouldn't work, since it's essentially a 90 minute fart joke, but it actually has a good message for kids about not being embarrassed by who you are and embracing your gifts, how ever strange they are 😅
I just love how the only things I know one of the supporting cast for is Harry Potter and... this. I'm sure Rupert Gint has been in other things and is a fine actor but, the shadow of Danny Rad is tall and vast.
If I had a nickel for every half-hour video spent talking about fart jokes, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
Did I actually just watch an in-depth analysis about fart jokes in media for 30 minutes?
yes
Do you also love, when you scrol trough CZcams, waching meme complilations, and then you see a 30 minute video essay abut farts?
I know YOU do. 😏
I was watching the Vargskelethor Joel Windows 7 Destruction stream, personally
😂😂😂😂
I can't believe you didn't mention the fart orchestra scene in Captain Underpants. You had the sound byte for it in the intro and outro but I am very much offended it wasn't mentioned. That is hands down my favorite fart joke in all of cinema. In that movie, you get so immersed into George and Harold's characters and it makes so much sense for it to be funny.
Literally
My favorite fart joke ever was in Crash twinsanity. The basic plot of the game is that Crash and his villian doctor Cortex have to work together. And in this one mission, you have to throw Cortex into a rollable pipe.
Cortex then says "im stuck, I've never been so humiliated, stuck in a pipe. Well at least it can't get any worse" then the game goes quiet for a sec before Cortex lets out a tiny fart. And you just hear him whimper about it since he can't move!
One thing to note is that there is a fart fetish, in general, so you know... could be less of a joke and more some creep trying to satisfy themselves.
21:02 of course this example uses that fact for the comedy. Its not just that Alexa is making the stock sound, its that alexa will whisper back if you whisper to it, which can sound sensual. And combined with the whole fart thing... Yeah, its funny.
Honestly, the best fart joke I've seen was a recurring gag from the master of disguise where the main villain would be laughing maniacally and then fart. Then everyone would just look kinda awkward and uncomfortable and just look around at each other in silence.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. It's like the only good part of the movie.😆
and the best part was the third time when he didn't fart and just smiled, *then* farted

I hate fart jokes, but god... the exploding fart Shaggy drops in the armor during the Scooby Doo movie absolutely killed me. Probably the only fart scene that's made me laugh genuinly
In short controlled bursts - fart jokes _can_ work, but when you spray and pray, toilet humour _can_ overstay its welcome. Adam Sandler films are the prime example of toilet humour run amok, the farts are treated as independent jokes, with little overlap between gags, plus, comedians forget what makes fart jokes funny - it's the surprise. The best fart joke I know is in the Revenge of the Pink Panther, when Inspector Clouseau played by Peter Sellers, farts in a elevator while in disguise, the actors expressions really sells the joke, and this is how toilet humour works, it's part of a joke, not the joke itself.
Horror and Humor have very similar types of buildup I find. Just like how you don't use a cat scare as an actual scary moment, but to mess with tension? You don't use a fart as the actual joke, you use it to build up why the actual joke works. Cats aren't scary and farts aren't funny. Cats being the false alarm to set up a greater scare later when the real horror pops out is scary, that same cat being found half-mutated or having been savaged by the monster is scary. Farts that happen at unexpected times or sell a different gag are funny, a fart with reverb is over the top therefore it's funny because the fact you made it THAT over the top is itself funny.
It's the weakest "joke" you could pull in the movie or show in my opinion, it just sets. Ah yes, so *this* is how the film is going to be. It's going to be one of *those* 😐
Theres only one character i approve with fart jokes. Wario.
One of my favorite examples of "The Hotbox" is the one from Robot Chicken where the Saturday morning cartoon villains are carpooling, and Skeletor is just like:"... That was a good one."
Followed by everyone's confusion while Mum-Ra is just hammering his fist on the buttons on the door, screaming "UNLOCK THE WINDOOOOOW!"
No actual fart sound, just the reactions of Mum-Ra, Lex Luther, and Cobra Commander all screaming in horror as Skeletor laughs.
If anyone here watches jerma, I think it was great when he cried laughing trying to keep a straight face while listening to endless fart sound effects. Also the time where he jumpscared himself with the randomly timed slowed down fart with reverb
I'm a fan of the one where he said he would sh*t himself if Elden Ring won GOTY and then played the most overused stock fart sound when it did
farts can actuallly enhance a fire, since they contain methane so the fart jokes from around 8:00 are just even less imppresive
Also the fire can just follow the gas right up your butthole burning it so dangerous.
That wind effect from metro man does have a canon source. In that shot it’s actually megamind disguised as metro man and using a jet pack to fly, the wind effect is him firing up his jet pack
Personally, the Metroman echoed fart joke is my favorite. Never fails to make me smile when I run across it, and I’ve played it over again a few times. Tighten’s reaction also aids the humor ig.
I had no idea it was that.
I don’t mind fart jokes but it usually depends on how it’s used for context and how it plays out in a movie or show (animated or live-action for films and TV series), along with timing. There are some fart jokes that work out well and are played for laughs along with being used to play into the character’s personality (e.g. Pumbaa in _The Lion King_ and Piranha In _The Bad Guys)_ and other times they overused it too much where it is random and not funny (the villain in _Master of Disguise)_
I like how the thumbnail and the "no" at the 15 second mark of the video are both straight to the point.
I don't think I've ever actually laughed at a fart joke lol
I recently saw Lion Ling 1½ (it's very good by the way, everyone reading this should watch it), and that was when I declared the joke with the jacuzzi to be the best fart joke ever done. The best ones really are the ones that don't play any sound effect, where it's only implied in some way.
If done RIGHT, they can be funny. However, very few people know how to do them right.
It mainly depends on how a fart joke is played out in a movie or tv show 😐
I have no issue with that kind of humor
Agreed. It all depends on the context of the situation and how often you use them.
I should be sleeping on a school night, but instead i’m watching a half hour video on farting in movies
The funniest fart joke I've seen. Was from my 4 year old sister, she made a raspberry on her arm then hit a button on her microphone. Which caused a large applause noise on the Bluetooth speaker.
The Magic Roundabout was BUTCHERED in the American dub! 9:12
In the UK version, it actually had a story and well written characters! None of that cheap pop culture humour! THE MOOSE DIDNT EVEN SPEAK!
The type of gag I hate more than toilet humor is the slapstick fail gag, which is were a character confidently tries something only to fail epically in a bit of weak physical humor, something I frequently see in comedy movie trailers that leads to the comedy look worse which often is.
The worst one is the Marvel one liners, it completely takes you out of the movie and kinda falls into what your comment said like "huh, that sounded better in my head" or "he's right behind me isn't he?".
@sloft-70 the visual part of the slapstick fail gag is what makes my eyes roll than what is verbally said.
Since you wanted suggestions, I've always been intrigued by the different ways kids content avoids having a character die. Sometimes it works and feels like a natural end to the story arc and sometimes it's just super vague doesn't work
My personal favorites:
The protein shake from Van Wilder
The fart Jake thought would be funny in Adventure Time
The urinal chat from Along Came Polly
The "fart attack" from Parks and Rec
Of course, the Blazing Saddles and Lion King ½ scenes.
The interview fart from Step Brothers
Dexter's Lab episode where Dexter thinks he's going to die
The episode is the Good Place where Bad Janet lets out a fart that lasts through the opening credits and still stinks at the end of the episode.
Family Guy has a few good ones that break the rules you put down.
That Ren and Stimpy episode where he gives birth to a fart
And almost every fart from Bob's Burgers
These rules don't matter. It's all about knowing how to actually write a joke. I've heard the stock fart used and the joke be funny. I've seen farts used as an insult with it being funny. If you have a bias against them then it'll obviously be harder to make you laugh at one. The more I see it, there isn't a growing army of people who hate them. It's more like either you like them or you don't.
I kinda just hate the drama around farts, but i have ibs and it can be so embarrassing
I have IBS aswell but it affects me in the sense of constant nausea and throwing up,
@@YellowTyrant my condolences.
I probably have IBS (was never diagnosed), and as a child, having someone laugh at me over a bodily function outside of my control was beyond humiliating and one of the many factors that contributed to my low self esteem.
@@YellowTyrantsorry if this is an odd question (i have IBS too) but is the nausea like “in the head” or “in the stomach” ? ive only just recently connected that the nausea and general gut issues i had might be IBS specific and not an everyone thing
Nearly anything can be the subject of a good joke if it's done right. The beginning of this video got a chuckle out of me because it was a good example of juxaposition with Dazz's 'done' expression combined with 'funny' fart music. So yes they can.
The fact that CZcams has come to the point where people are seriously making 30+ minute videos about fart jokes 💀
It brings me joy knowing I'm not the only one who hates toilet humor.
I wasn't that fond of toilet or slapstick humour even as a kid. Tom and Jerry started frustrating me by the time I was a teen as did toilet humour. It's very low-hanging fruit, and it gets terribly repetitive. It plays on bringing out laughter in awkward or embarrassing situations, rather than actually being witty in any way. But maybe that's just me.
For that fart joke classic that "did it first"... I mean, I understood /why/ they might have farted -- they're full o' beans -- but... it's STILL not funny.
One last edit: Just because the target audience is 5 years and under, doesn't mean they should need to deal with subpar humour. Let them have something high-quality too. They might not fully appreciate it then, but they can still have a laugh and a surface-level appreciation and then have the opportunity to enjoy it more on a rewatch later down the line. Besides, if we allow ourselves to appreciate quality over quantity and show that to hollywood too, maybe we won't be dealing with so much blockbuster and kids' movies exhaustion. Expressing our desire of quality for all age groups might help push for change.
Tom and Jerry literally influenced a lot of its visual humor from silent film actors, like Chaplin and Keaton. It's still incredibly timeless and creatively over-the-top.
Even the more crude side of jokes still hold up.
Fart jokes to me were never funny, they were overrated and weren't't used properly most of the time, they weren't executed well enough which was the reason why I sometimes cringe when a fart joke appears, I kinda wish they were somewhat executed properly and not just randomly placed in any scene or being spammed alot..
Oh yes, you're truly on point when these gas jokes are not executed properly. They seem to exist for cheap laughs
Great video, loved it, do have a mini comment though:
As someone who used captions as a way to reinforce the audio, there were a lot of times where the captions were not in like with the audio, like some thoughts not originally said. While sometimes they can be okay, a lot of times it made the pacing feel rushed even though the video was fine. I would recommend only maybe adding things in the captions if it is a mini thought and not while speaking. It really does wonders for people who use/rely on the captions.
the reverb fart edit of the nemo mines got me...
They're funny irl, but in movies, kinda, no, maybe? Idk
In memes? YEAH DEFINETLY XD
A video essay about fart jokes. Welp i have nothing else to do on a sunday evening
I've always found fart jokes as having great potential, and I've always hated posh people who act like they're always doomed to fail. Cherry picking the worst ones to use as an example. Just watching Adventure Time and Bob's Burgers always made me aware that farts can be funny. Hearing the words "Fart-school for the Gifted" makes me laugh to this day. And Jake being specifically told by Finn to keep quiet because they're in an incredibly dangerous position, only for Jake to surprise himself with a fart that completely gave them away, then respond (in a very worried voice) that he thought it would be funny.
I especially hate it when people argue against it in movies that are obviously for kids. Obviously kids movies are going to have them. (Most) Kids find farts hysterical, and it's unfair to act like they can't enjoy humor that's just for them. To their mind, it's "butts are the goofiest part of the human body. They stink, they're big, and they're positioned right behind you where you're not supposed to hear a sound. But they do make a sound. A funny sound and a smell that could clear a room."
But I will say, stock farts are the worst. Stock farts make the entire joke feel three times as generic.
As someone who has been watching you since Pikmin days, it’s so great seeing you do so well on youtube
I'm so terminally online i am currently watching a 30 minute video of some guy over analyzing fart jokes
The ones in the Lion King and Finding Nemo are literally the only smart fart jokes™
Wander over Yonder to me mastered the usage of a fart joke. The Party Poopers is an endless barrage of butt puns and the main comedic throughline is not the puns themselves but Wander trying NOT to laugh and offend a race of aliens with butts for heads. The only fart joke in the entire episode is right at the end and is used as basically the big-payoff for all the puns and innuendo.
Like another comment here said: There's a difference between a joke involving farts and a fart being treated as a joke on its own.
The start of this scene is very funny actually. Like I think it's mainly seeing you stare at the camera in annoyance as it happens. Also the deep loud ones at the end kind of adds something.
17:34 is still one of the funniest things I've ever had the joy of witnessing.
i find that comedy itself is very odd as its very different on other people, and fart jokes is an example of unique jokes that people tend to laugh at, while others laugh at dark humor, sexual humor and all around just different types of humor for each and everyone in the world
Dude I'm 37 and farts and fart jokes will always be hilarious.
YTP uses fart jokes quite well.
Just like any other joke, fart jokes all depend on execution
A fart joke is funny when in real life between friends not in artificial scenarios
I quite like Key and Peele's "If Names Were Farts" skit, which is extremely stupid and they commit to it so hard. I also like how it seems to have its own internal logic, where someone's name will always be the same fart sound (and it seems to be accompanied by physical motions, like some people's names are harder to pronounce). It's stupid and it's one of my fav Key & Peele skits (even the close caption on it goes all out)

One fart joke that stuck with me was Austin Powers 2 with Fat Bastard. Similar to the "I'm Sorry" category, he audibly farts in front of everyone, and says "Sorry... I farted". That pointless clarification of something very obvious was hilarious!
“i didn’t see this movie, you didn’t see this movie”
HOW DARE YOU, Blazing Saddles is an all-time classic
that long fart joke is unironically more funnier than the fart jokes
Honestly the Blazing Saddles one is the only fart joke that I still find funny. Ironically, it does have more sophistication than what’s usually seen in animated works. It doesn’t come out of nowhere. There’s a setup to it, and the characters comment on that setup and not just the farts themselves. It even takes a rewatch to truly make the connection. And that’s why this scene is so highly regarded as Hollywood’s best fart joke.
The captain underpants farts song that you're using is funny because how the kids in that scene look like there in pain 0:00
