That whole sequence was inspired. “Of course they’re pissed! They’re Nazis! It’s like it’s their job or something.”
Also John Cleese’s briefing on the meteor headed toward earth.
Don’t Stop Me Now from Shaun of the Dead.
I almost asphyxiated from laughing so hard.
There was a scene in The Naked Gun where Leslie Nielsen returns to his apartment and sees it’s been broken into. His tactical cop poses quickly turn into a series of absurdly balletic flips and cartwheels that’s impossible to do justice to in words. I remember seeing it in the theater and giggling uncontrollably for at least a minute after it ended.
When Buzz Aldrin shows up in And Now for Something Completely Different.
All the Kato vs. Clouseau battles in the Pink Panther movies.
1776–the opening, when McNair tells John Adams Congress can’t possibly vote on something without Adams, and he says, “I can just…imagine.” Plus many other scenes, making it my favorite movie.
The Little Mermaid–when Sebastian’s jaw drops, clang, after seeing Ariel with Eric.
“Nice beaver!”
“Thanks. I just had it stuffed.”

“I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is a disgrace, that two are called a law firm, and that three or more become a Congress!” -John Adams
I still can’t help grinning when I think of that line.
Yet another Airplane one – the people who line up to punch out the panicky woman.
Oh yeah, and the two architects on Monty Python who try to sell a slaughterhouse to a government agancy trying to deal with housing issues for the poor.
“Howdy pardener!” The first half of The Party is comedy gold.
Peter Sellers was brilliant. At the end of his last Pink Panther movie (the one where he passed away during filming) there is a montage of all his funniest scenes. My friend and I laughed so hard we couldn’t breathe.
One of the funniest movie scenes of all time, IMO, is the pool scene in “Caddyshack”:
**“Doody!!” **
The best part is that the historical John Adams actually said it. However, he said it when the was the Vice President of the U.S.
Leo Bloom (Gene Wilder) in The Producers:
“I’m hysterical! I’m wet! And I’m hysterical! I’m in pain! And I’m wet! And I’m still hysterical!”
Actually, just about any line from that movie cracks me up. It’s one I never tire of seeing and never fail to laugh at.
The Party is one of my favorite movies. I start giggling at the beginning when he’s on the movie set. That trumpet!
Another vote for Best In Show, the entire movie.
Spinal Tap, the scene for the release of Smell the Glove. The camera focuses on Nigel Tufnel’s face and you see a fever blister on his lip. The camera then pans to David St. Hubbins, and he has the same blister on his lip.
Bill Murray’s trashed combover in Kingpin.
The scene in Horrible Bosses where Charlie Day is acting as lookout while the other two are inside. He’s all coked up and sitting in the passenger seat singing “That’s Not my Name”. I don’t know why that tickles me so much but the first time I missed many parts of the movie because of recurring laughter over it.
The scene in Bruce Almightywhere Steve Carrell is an anchorman and Jim Carey is messing with the teleprompter.
“I do the cha-cha like a sissy girl. I lik-a do da cha-cha”
You’ll have nothing and like it! 
The Three Amigos: the scene where Steve Martin is trying to get the attention of the other two from atop a wall.
“Caw, caw!”
“Oo, oo!”
“Youtwo, youtwo!”
“Lookuphere, look! look! lookuphere!”
One could probably quote about 90% of this movie’s dialogue in this thread.
It used to be on Youtube, but I can’t find it now. The funniest scene I know of comes toward the end of The Awful Truth (1937), with Irene Dunne and Cary Grant. Irene Dunne is Grant’s soon-to-be ex-wife, who stops by his finacee’s house (read: filthy rich parents’ mansion), pretending to be his sister (a ruse Grant started), and acts as though they are from a lower class, and Grant is actually new money (he isn’t, albeit, he isn’t as filthy rich as the fiancee’s family). She tops it off by singing a song with some, umm, “wind effects,” she simulates, called “My Dreams are Gone with the Wind.”
I wish I could find it, because no description does it justice.
The entire movie is hilarious, though.
Close second is the “Garbo laughs” scene from Ninotchka. I could keep rewinding that scene forever.
There’s also a really funny scene in Bringing up Baby where Katharine Hepburn breaks the heel of her shoe, and does a whole routine about how funny she walks, and says “I was born on the side of a hill.” I recently learned that she really did break her shoe accidentally, improvised the whole scene, and it made it to the final cut.
Those all make me laugh every time I see them. I just have to think about them, and I laugh.
I’m kinda sad that at 48, I’ve pretty much seen all the great screwball comedies from Hollywood’s golden age.
It’s a pity they didn’t line up to punch out the nurse with the guitar instead. :mad:
She was a nun, not a nurse! :eek:
A Shot in the Dark:
“Both times, the rheum was locked from the inside. Both times, the only two people in the rheum were Maria Gambreli and the murder victim. Both times, Maria Gambreli was found standing over the victim with the murder weapon in her hand. What is the obvious conclusion?”
“Maria Gambreli is guilty.”
“You* fool*! Can’t you see she is protecting someone?!?”
