Is Marvin getting shot in the face suppose to be funny?

The first time I saw Pulp Fiction I laughed when Marvin accidentally gets shot in the face. Then I had the reaction of "Was I suppose to laugh? Was that the director's intent?" It's the element of surpise. With horror movies sometimes the reaction of horror is followed by laughter, like a fun roller coaster. Did you laugh the first time? I feel weird having that kind of reaction to violence.

Ha ha! Yes! He's like, "Oh man, I just shot Marvin in the face." More like a "whoops!" rather than a you just ended a man's life with your stupidity. Absolutely fucking hilarious.

They hit a doped bump and the fun went off blowing his brains out all over the window. Real life no. On the screen belly hurts funny
