20. "Get Lost, Squidward"

Marvel Studios

When Black Order members Ebony Maw (Tom Vaughan-Lawlor) and Cull Obsidian (Terry Notary) arrive in New York City to capture the Time Stone, Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) warns them, "I'm sorry, Earth is closed today", before Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) adds, "You're trespassing in this city and on this planet."

The killer one-liner, though? Stark drops this hilarious truth bomb: "It means get lost, Squidward." It's funny because it's true, and of course, getting a SpongeBob Squarepants reference into an Avengers movie is always going to be a winner. The fact it's an organic joke that doesn't feel remotely forced makes it all the better.
