Favorite scene(s) from comedies

"Never trust a Sicilian when death is on the line!"

was it over when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor?

Serpentine!!

I agree that the "When Harry Met Sally" scene you mentioned was awesome. I also love the scene at a Giants game when Harry tells Jess about his wife sleeping with an accountant.

Opening scene for "Office Space" is also awesome when Michael Bolton is listening to gangsta rap in his car.

Chicken?

Dennis the Constitutional peasant
I'm 37. I'm not old. - ( New Window )

It's so hard to cut it down to just one or two, but if I must....the rental counter scene in Planes Trains and Automobiles. Runner up - when Vinny arrives in prison and interviews Stan in My Cousin Vinny.

She turned me into a newt!
A Newt?
I got better

Steve Martin rental car scene.

The Cable Guy: The morning after the party when Carrey tells him about the prostitute.

Grumpy Old Men: Any scene with Burgess Meredith.

Vegas Vacation: Clark and Eddie digging up cash and going to the "casino".

Uncle Buck: When the clown comes the front door.

Pretty much anything Peter Sellers or Mel Brooks.

The Inquisition in History of the World probably tops my list.

when Michael Cain whips Steve Martin's shins with a stick and he has to pretend to not feel a thing

Agreed....great scene

The end of the first Pink Panther, when Clouseau is being driven away in the police car. He's been successfully framed for the Phantom heists, his wife has left him and helped set him up.....now he's sitting morosely on his way to prison when the police guards note jealously how he has so many female admirers. And Clouseau, of course, begins to falsely boast of his exploits with a smile growing on his face. At his lowest point, the bumbling fool finally found a way to earn respect and admiration. Even if it means admitting to crimes he didn't commit, he rolls with it because it brings the recognition he craved.

Not an uproariously funny scene, but very amusing and well written.

When Froedrick grills Igor about the true identity of the brain he stole. "Oh, it was Abby something. Abby Normal, I think"

The scene with Craig and Pinky in Pinky's shop..

crack up at the scene at the Dr. office in Fletch.

It's pretty damned funny beginning to end. Hard to remember now, but Chevy Chase was really funny way back when.

It's a shame about Ed.

-Yeah, it was a shame. To go so suddenly like that...

Aaaah, he was dying for years.

-Well, right, but the end was very sudden.

He was in intensive care for eight weeks!

-Right, but at the very end, when he actually died? That was sudden.




Just what kind of name is Poon, anyway?
-Comanche Indian

The dinner party scene from Seems Like Old Times is hilarious. "Eat the chicken, Fred"

Bucket!"

it's all ball bearings!

Who's The Man - All of the Dennis Leary and Dr Dre scenes

Christmas Vacation - Chevy Chase shopping at the mall, and Cousin Eddie at the sewer

8 Heads in a Duffel Bag - Joe Pesci and Grandma

Great Outdoors - Bear Scene

Still cracks me up and I've had to see that movie over 200 times.

and some gauze pads, and I'm going to need two gallons of antifreeze. Preferably Pennzoil....no, no, better make that Quaker State.

"It tastes nutty"

from the Odd Couple, when Felix (Jack Lemmon) unclogs his ears at the diner.

Cause it's the funniest damn scene! What an underrated brilliant comedy.

Of the the Bradley Fighting Vehicle.

Digging deep! That's a great movie, though almost no one has seen it.

"We need sheep specs"

also the PMS episode of Everybody loves raymond

,

.

Collins' slideshow presentation in Idiocracy. "Upgrayedd, spelled thusly. The double D is for a double dose of his pimping"

...

You got change for a hundred?

"Does your dog bite?"

"No"

Dog bites Clouseau

"I thought you said your dog didn't bite?"

"That's not my dog."

another great scene from PTA

Cheating during foreign service exam. With an assist from Frank Oz as the unamused exam proctor.

"Can you hold my wallet? There's a thousand dollars in there. Or maybe there isn't. Know what I mean?"

Plenty from Caddyshack, especially when Chevy plays through in Bill Murray's hut. Or Rodney Dangerfield at the country club dinner

"I bet you were something before electricity!"

Haha. Chris Rock looked like a crackhead back then.


There are so many. I can pick a bunch of scenes from Dumb and Dumber, Caddyshack, The Other Guys, etc. I dont know why but as a kid I remember laughing uncontrollably at the scene with the bricks in Home Alone 2. Another hysterical moment not in a comedy was in The Wire. It was the episode where Jimmy went undercover to the whore house and got caught banging those 2 chicks. His facial expression was priceless.

Ted has hundreds of them, though I admit it's not what everyone finds funny. I loved it.

one of my favorites:

Quote:

Frank: You think you got what it takes? Ted: I'll tell you what I got. Your wife's pussy on my breath. Frank: Nobody's ever spoken to me like that before. Ted: That's because their mouths were full of your wife's box. Frank: You're hired. Ted: Shit.

Aw, man, fuck the cup - pour it in my hand for a dime!

when they find the Baby Ruth bar, and later Bill Murray eats it. Also any scene with Rodney in it.

Holy Grail with Tim the Enchanter on the bridge, and the Rabbit scene.

Life of Brian when the crowd is trying to hear the sermon- " Blessed are the Cheese makers".

Also any scene between Barth Gumble and Jerry Hubard from Fernwood 2nite. Not too many people remember that show. Classic. Could never get away with that show 2day.

I'm sure if you asked me this tomorrow I would have a completely different list. But I'm trying to think of some of the scenes that made me laugh the absolute hardest the first time I saw them

Austin Powers 2: Urine Sample with Mini Mie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_iPFHi1SWE

From "Enrico Pallazo's" performance, to Drebin calling 2 pitches down the middle balls, to getting in a rundown as an umpire, that was just classic!

The water ballet was classic, the entrance of the Judge's niece.

Opening romp through London in Austin Powers

Stripes graduation or mud wrestling

Montage of weddings in Wedding Crashers

Black Knight scene in Holy Grail

.

"You're going the wrong direction!"

"He says we're going the wrong direction..."

"How the hell would he know where we're going...?"

.

"Ray, pretend for a moment that I don't know anything about metallurgy, engineering, or physics, and just tell me what the hell is going on?"

The next scene at the mayor's office is great, too.
