Good movies with no intentional humor: Do we need the humorous release valve?

What do you have Members?

It proves we need the humorous release valve.
"He survived, he’s now in Disneyland in Orlando, and no way am I going back there. How did he end up in Disneyland? I saw him in Disneyland, Jesus Christ!"
