Unsung Movie Comedy Moments
Ok, only one moment per post, and keep it brief! The object is to compile a succint list of laugh-out-loud or knowingly clever moments of hilarity in film history YOU think needs more attention.
Don't include famous skits. They be not welcome here. I'll start. 1) Me, Myself and Irene, The Farrelly Brothers Jim Carrey's post-coital pee as Charlie the night after Hank has slept with Irene. Superb. It totally sideswiped me by its honesty and directional focus. Quote:

I really like when the stiltwalking clown falls over and cracks his jaw in Billy Madison. Possibly my favorite part in the movie. It's so understated and extreme at the same time.

Porky's - when they're spying on those girls showering and this fat girl comes in and blocks one of the guy's view, he shouts 'Move it, lard ass!'.

At one point one of the cops loses it and bumps Ben's head on the table. I find this scene incredibly funny, and for some reason no one else ever remembers it, and no one laughs when I tell it.

As Good As It Gets, when Jack Nicholson (playing the writer Melvin Udall) meets one of his fans (a receptionist) and she gets totally excited and goes like
"How do you write women so well?" "I think of a man, and I take away reason and accountability." The look on the receptionist's face and the way Nicholson says this are pure gold. Another hilarious line: "People who talk in metaphors oughta shampoo my crotch". Ah, what a movie (I'm a Nicholson buff anyway)!
