What was one of your favorite FUNNIEST scenes and/or lines from one of your favorite movies?

Question

The movie can be a drama, suspense, romance, horror, family, musical and of course a comedy. I have so many, but these 2 come to mind:

From the movie "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" when the money race was going on and all were driving like crazy around the desert mountains and this sweet black couple had their truck loaded with furniture and as the crazy driving was going on this cute couple swerving from side to side of the road to avoid from getting hit when they went over the cliff and down the hill with the furniture flying out of the truck and finally they reach the bottom when all is quiet and they discover that they are ok, the man turns to his wife and says, "I said it once and I'll say it again...I didn't want to move to California".

Also on the movie "Jaws" when the 3 guys are out at sea and they have not really seen the shark up close yet, when Chief Brody is throwing dead fish parts in the sea when all of a sudden the sharks huge mouth comes up to the surface and Chief Brody is the only one who saw it and walks backward real slowly to the cabin of the boat and says, "We got to get a bigger boat". Classic classic classic..lol.

What are yours?

Answer 1

"Waiting For Guffman" is an off beat comedy written and directed by Christopher Guest as was "Spinal Tapp".

Christopher guest doing his choreography practice with his jeans on backwards tripped my hysterical switch in "Guffman"

Answer 2

Oh yours gave me a good laugh.

I could watch "Space Cowboys" everyday!  I love the eye exam and crack up every time!  I think about it when i visit the eye doctor too

Answer 3

Well, there's one scene in a restaurant from the movie "When Harry Met Sally" and the best line is "I'll have what she's having".  If I explain any more, I'll probably have the Yahoo police on me!

Answer 4

In and Out.. When Joan Cusack hits on Tom Sellek and find out that he's g*y too...She runs out of the bar wearing her wedding dress, runs into the street and yells, "I NEED A HETEROSEXUAL STAT!"

Actually, that whole bar scene was hilarious!

So was the part where Kevin Cline was listening to that tape but couldn't stop himself from dancing!

Very, very funny movie!

Answer 5

Two from 'Romancing The Stone' (Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner).

1). They are overtaken by a mudslide on a mountain. End up in a slurry with Michael's face between Kathleen's leg's...the line by Michael is "What started out as one ***** of a morning , turned out to be one h**l of a day" !

2). The Columbian police are shooting at both main characters. Michael spit's out ..." What did you do this morning lady, wake up and say 'today I'm going to ruin a man's life !'

Answer 6

Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) "Stupid is as stupid does", & "Momma said life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you will get".  Also where he is running across the USA adding more people along the way.  When he finally stopped running, turned around, & the people said, "He's going to say something".  They waited, & waited, then finally he said, "I'm tired now, I think I will go home."      

Answer 7

Life is like a box of chocolates - You never know what you gonna get

With Steve Martin (can't remember the name of the movie)

Also, Clint Eastwood - Go ahead and make my day

Answer 8

It was the movie Annie Hall, when his friend accuses Woody Allen of trying to act like God and Woody says "I have to pattern myself after someone, don't I?"

Answer 9

Super Troopers the whole beginning cracks me up every time. I love the movie, but the beginning gets me stuck into every time.  

Answer 10

The blood donor with Tony Handcock, hard to beat that one.

Answer 11

I actually thought I'd die laughing at Barbara Streisand in "What's up Doc."

Answer 12

"Where are the white women at?" - Blazing Saddles

"Strange women, lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government." - Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Answer 13

It's from the movie Raising Arizona starring Nicholas Cage and Holly Hunter.  

Holly Hunter's character, a woman named Ed, says to Nicholas Cage's character H.Il,

"I'm not gonna live this way, Hi! It just ain't family life!"

H.I. replies, "Well... it sure ain't "Ozzie and Harriet."

That line cracks me up every time I watch that movie.  Plus I use the line myself when things go to c**p around our house.  You might as well laugh as cry.

Answer 14

the movie parody called  " airplane " had leslie neilson in it along with many top stars cameoing it . what funny one liners they did , with absolute straight faces . lol

he asked for clearence , from a guy named clarence , and the retort had me in stitches . funny funny movie . lol.    d.

Answer 15

I told my guy the "jaws"one before he saw it, but all of my favorite lines come from "Airplane" Surely you jest----don't call me Shirley (my name is Shirley) That one had the best one-liners of any movie I've ever seen. For a TV sit com, I'd have to pick "2 & 1/2 men. " The last one was, "God gives you children so that death won't be such a disappointment" --yes, I have a daughter. I might put that in her 30th birthday card. We both have a sick sense of humor.

Answer 16

One of mine is from "The Court Jester" (1955) starring Danny Kaye as Hubert Hawkins:  A jester unemployed is nobody's fool!

Just about every scene and line in this movie is hilarious.  My sister and I laughed until we cried during the knighting of Hawkins (Kaye).  It was filmed in high speed and the marching knights were played by "The Jackson Michigan Zoauve Drill Team".  One of the highlights was Kaye's tights slipping down to a dangerous level  during the rushed ceremony.  

Another encounter with Sir Ravenurst played by Basil Rathbone:  

Kaye:  I'd like to get in, get on with it, get it over and get out.  Get it?

Sir Ravenhurst (Basil Rathbone):  Got it!

Kaye:  Good!

This was and still is a classic comedy from the 1950's.

Answer 17

Ernest Saves Christmas.  I just love the scene where he is a cab driver and is driving a guy from the airport.  The way he was driving (talking and not paying attention), the passenger in the back seat kept sliding back and forth from window to window.  Then Ernest stopped on the freeway to get a Christmas tree that fell off a truck.  You have to see it to see the humor.  Always puts a smile on my face.

Answer 18

O.K. I am a weird person but my favorite was in the movie A Ghost and M.Chicken.The part when Don Knotts was kissing the lady and someone yells out"That a boy Luther".I told you I was weird.I used that line for a long time,still do.My kids know why but I doubt others do.Oh,go ahead and make my day.....

Answer 19

"Tombstone" when Doc Holiday said, "I'm your huckleberry"!!!  When Johnny Ringo thought that the dual was with Wyatt Earp!!!  Cool show!!
