Okay... time for some stingers. I'll post vids of the suggestions. This one's going to be tough to pick only one moment. Ideas anyone?

The "Under the enemy's scrotum" bit sums the movie up pretty nicely I think.

I think the close up of John Turturro's butt qualifies as a stinger. It's horrifying and truly disturbing and yet for some reason it still makes me laugh.

Yeah, that or the uber-high mom

MST3Kgirl

yeah, definitely the butt shot or Shia looking like "It lives By night" (mst3k episode 1010)

Darth Geek

Shia's fast talking speech in front of the class.

How about the first shot of Megan Fox draped over the motorcycle.


Rattrap007

I say Mom tackles the college guy and steals the Frisbee...


That or the dogs humping...

How about the roommate on the men's room floor - "How many times can you get tasered in the nuts?"

Or the thing coming through the roof of the car (real lucky that didn't catch someone in the top of the head, huh?)

Or just Turturro tasering the roommate in the neck - "Can't take that guy anymore!"

I disagree with some of the suggestions so far.  I don't think the stinger can be something that the creators thought were funny.  It should be something that was unintentionally funny.  My suggestions:

I agree with Darth Geek about something from Shy Beef's physics class.  Perhaps the first moment when he's looking at his book, and his eyes roll back.

The moment when everyone's all sad about Optimus dying, then they just drop his robot carcass 100 feet from the helicopters.

But what was "intentionally" funny wasn't...

I don't know that every stinger during MST3K was a funny moment - "Shine Your Love" from Angel's Revenge, for instance.

"Jaw dropping" works, too.

This one's won me over. I was giggling so hard when that happened I had to rewind the riff to hear what they said.

That's why I went for "Give me your face"  It's not meant to be funny, and it really isn't, except that this line that should be delivered by a homicidal maniac is in fact coming from our hero and protector of the human race.
