Avengers: Infinity War - 20 Best Gags Ranked From Worst To Best

15. Thor Speaks Groot

Rocket is extremely surprised when it appears that Thor can understand what Groot (Vin Diesel) is saying, prompting Thor to declare, "They taught it on Asgard, it was an elective."

It's an hilarious line because Chris Hemsworth's delivery is so deadpan we have no idea whether he's joking or telling the truth. It's just barely believable either way, and well, the fact he clearly does understand Groot makes it decidedly more likely he's actually not screwing around.

The mental visual of a bunch of little Asgardian kids learning Groot is just...insanely funny.
