Memorable comedy movies should be movies that make you laugh from start to finish. They should be movies filled with memorable one-liners, funny stunts and mindless fun. When you have finished watching the great comedies of all time, you will know it by the pain in your sides from laughing so hard. That being said, here are my picks for the 10 funniest movie scenes ever.
10)Easy Money. What would a list of comedy movies be without the man who gets no respect, Rodney Dangerfield. Team him with a young Joe Pesci and you haven't seen this funny a duo since Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. Monty (Rodney Dangerfield) and Nicky (Joe Pesci) are at the race track with their friends, betting on trotters. Their horse is in the lead and Monty is yelling, "I'm going to Hawaii!". The rider puts his feet down and drags them, pulling on the reins and making the horse slow down. "He's falling behind." Nicky points out with Monty responding, "I'm not going to Hawaii." When they realize the rider intentionally threw the race (I've always wondered about that in real life) Nicky starts yelling, "I'm gonna kill ya! I'm gonna kill ya!" The rider comes back around, Nicky jumps the fence, pulls the rider off and starts beating him up. Vintage Dangerfield and Pesci.

The two funniest scenes had to be when Sherman first changed into "Buddy", running around buying new clothes and demanding "All Spandex. Nothing but Spandex!" and giving the mean comic, Reggie, played by Dave Chapelle a taste of his own medicine.
8). Trains, Planes and Automobiles. Another great comedy pairing of Steve Martin and John Candy. So many funny scenes to choose from as Neal (Martin) and Del (Candy) struggle to get Neal home in time for Thanksgiving despite multiple troubles. The best scene had to be when Del gets turned around and starts driving the wrong way down a four lane highway. A couple sees them and tries to get their attention by blowing the horn. Del dismisses them as wanting to race and then says they are drunk. Neal rolls down his window, seeing they want something. The couple yells, "You're going the wrong way!" Neal tells Del what the couple said and Del replies, "Oh, he's drunk. How would he know where we're going?" "Yeah, how would he know," Neal agrees before waving at the guy and saying thank you. Del adds a thank you of his own accompanied by horn honking and an imitation of
