Funny Moments in Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas

  • Huey going completely nuts when he realizes that he and his brothers are in a "Groundhog Day" Loop in "Stuck on Christmas". Dewey and Louie snap him out of it.
  • And on the second morning, Donald greets the triplets with "Merry Christmas!" Their response? Screaming their heads off, even as Donald comically drops the food everywhere (like the previous morning).
    • During the third loop, the boys freak out when Aunt Gertie shows up. They run back upstairs to avoid their aunt’s kisses, but they’re carried back down by Donald.
    • It gets to a point where by the fifth loop, the nephews have the pattern down as Dewey counts the actions in order and points to the door with the relatives arriving.
    • Louie’s spontaneous Balloon Belly during the montage.
  • "Donald! Stop playing with the boys' presents." instead of "Merry Christmas, Everybody!"
  • Each visit to Christmas dinner.
    Gertie: Ooooh! Turkey!
    (Bad loop) Gertie: Aaaaah!! Turkey!!
    (Perfect loop) Gertie: Ooooh! Ham!
    • Even better, the turkey is eating the ham with them!
  • At one point during the bad loop, the boys show up wearing scuba suits, in order to protect themselves from Gertie's kisses. Gertie goes from excited to confused over the boy’s outfits.
  • After the turkey chase, the turkey ends up going up the chimney and in Santa's outfit. It's not so much the appearance of the turkey that's hilarious, it's the implication that Santa knew that the day was on repeat.
  • Donald's immediate suspicion when his nephews start behaving like little angels— preempting him from making their breakfast, waiting for the family to open presents, willingly kissing their Aunt Gertie, and helping Daisy with dinner. He knows them too well not to think something is up.
    • Even better is that the other family members shower Huey, Dewey, and Louie with praise for being so kind and generous...which is inevitably intercut with a shot of Donald cynically complaining that they're up to something.
  • When the triplets present Donald with the "dream boat" they built for him out of their sleds, he pulls them in for a group hug—and Aunt Gertie is so overcome with joy that she bursts into Ocular Gushers and uses the nearest available surfaces to wipe her eyes...namely, Huey and Dewey's rear ends. Their stunned facial expressions as she grabs them makes it even funnier.
  • Pete whining like a child and demanding Santa to tell him where his presents are at the end of "A Very Goofy Christmas". Even better is why: When Pete says he always believed in Santa and asks about his gift, Santa blows all the snow on Goofy and Max's house onto Pete's house as payback for him saying he didn't believe in Santa and trying to convince Max of the same.
  • After Max admits that he got the idea that Santa is not real from Pete, Goofy's response is to look at the camera with a disgruntled, "That figures."
  • During Goofy's mad dash through the local mall, he ends up swinging from one of the giant ornaments hanging from the ceiling, which attracts a crowd below. They cheer when he successfully manages to swing himself to safety, with one man raising a camera to snap a picture...only for a giant ornament to abruptly come loose from the ceiling and start tumbling downward. Everyone else runs in a panic while the man with the camera stands frozen in fear with a perfect This Is Gonna Suck expression on his face.
  • The kids of the family shopping at Pete's tree lot looking up at the ten-footers in amazement.
    Boy: (In awe) Wooow. It's bigger than our hooouse.
  • Pete, after taking Mickey's money as payment for the loss of a sale on one of his ten-foot trees, stupidly puts the cash along with his lit cigar into his back pocket, which results in his butt burning up (Pete: Mmm, somebody's burnin' their ham) and winds up crashing into a bunch of glue cans one of which ends up stuck in his burning hide, and causes him to launch into the air like a firework, which also ends up burning down his tree lot. Karma's a bitch!
    Pete: NOT MY TEN FOOTERS! (Sobs hysterically as firetrucks arrive)
