I think there is one with a polar bear trying to eat a submarine and the caption just says "submarines are not edible."

Yeah, you gotta open them up for the delicious guys inside like, like a box of Smarties. What a silly polar bear.

I would actually, completely unironically, watch a horror movie where a polar bear accidentally got onboard a nuclear sub. Like they have to surface through the ice quickly due to some malfunction, they open the hatch without checking for polar bear, the first guy gets eaten and the bear goes inside. Good luck with small arms fire onboard a sub. Let's say they can't close all the hatches due to Reasons (The, uh, air filter is broken and the air can't ciruclate then, and they'll suffocate, or whatever).

Someone put this guy in charge of Netflix or Paramount or something and give him a blank cheque

I do often browse wikipedia and haven’t ever found such quotes :( i think they may get redacted out due to not being descriptive enough

OP said "unintentionally", but I'm sure most of these were deliberate works of art

Op's examples aren't unintentionally funny either.
