How about "A Fish Called Wanda"

"Yes, uh my name is uh...Man..fren...sen...jen, and I'm with the CIA briefing everybody about our safe house."

"Well, Mr. Manfrensenjen, my father was in MI5, and I happen to know..."

(The scene also ended with one of the best patriotic in-your-face speeches I've ever heard, about what the good'ol USA did for Europe)

You mean this...

Well, would you like to know what you'd be without us, the good ol' U.S. of A. to protect you?
I'll tell you. The smallest f***ing province in the Russian Empire, that's what.
So don't call me stupid, lady. Just thank me.

Of course... liking Steve Martin DOES NOT mean that he is forgiven for his latest flick. Peter is the only one who should play that part...

Oh man, just thought of this.
How about the outtakes from Grumpy Old Men.
Burgess Meredith goes through a whole list for "one eyed trouser snake." That made me cry.

That is still one of my favorite movies...

While Otto dangled Archie out the window...

I do, I offer a complete and utter retraction.
The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you, or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.

Austin Powers: the Steamroller scene

Plan 9 From Outer Space: the Night to Day to Night to Day scene

This is Spinal Tap: the whole thing

The Big Lebowski: the whole thing

Can't think of anymore right now, but there's aplenty

One of mine as well. I think it is absolutely the best and most successful combination of British and American humor ever put together.

I'll have to get The Big Lebowski. I've heard it's very funny.

The Big Lebowski

I knew a guy just like that in Manhattan Beach (LA). My favorite scene was when the blowhard cop chief is reading Lebowski the riot act and then finishes up with the standard "You understand me, boy?!"

"I'm sorry...I wasn't listening."

Lebowski may be one of the most quotable films ever made. The more you watch it, the better it gets (you notice way more things). The first time I saw it, I thought it was good, but not great. The next time, it was superb. Now it's immortal.

Laurel & Hardy in "Towed in a Hole". It's one of their shorts but the first time I saw it I laughed so hard that my belly got sore and missed about half of the gags.

All of Me: Too many hyperventilatingly funny scenes - but one of my favorites:

When Steve Martin loses control of his hand during a guitar solo. Tryone covers for him with the band director by saying, "What? You didn't like that?!"
