3. Abraham Lincoln Gets Pie-Faced Just As He Got Shot - Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is an animated film jam-packed with hilarious food-related gags, and one of the best surely involves Mount Rushmore's various Presidential faces getting pelted with custard pies.

And while the faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt all get hit square in the face, Abraham Lincoln instead takes a hit to the back of the head.

Why, you ask? This reflects the nature of his assassination, where he was shot in the back of the head.

Extra points to directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller for even having custard leak out of Lincoln's nose and eyes, as if the joke wasn't already hilariously horrifying - or horrifyingly hilarious? - enough.
