Watched Of Mice and Men in high school and died laughing at the unfortunate ending. I mean, come on, he was in the middle of a sentence about rabbits! Needless to say, the teacher was none too pleased, but I did get the person next to me to laugh just as hard as I was. Read the book, knew it was coming, died laughing due to how it was filmed.

The end of city of angels where Meg Ryan is dicking around on her bike riding with her eyes closed on a highway and rides directly into a semi. I mean come on bitch not only are you on the highway, but there are cliffs on either side of you. Is it really the best time to close your eyes and take your hands off the handlebars?

There is a scene in the movie "Pollack" where the title character is riding a bike with a case of beer on the handlebars (and drinking one at the same time, natch), then he waves to some who drives by, then he falls off the bike and spills the beer. I'm not sure if it was intended to be a serious scene, but it's a scene from a serious movie that had me laughing my ass off.

Don't get me wrong..love The Dark Knight. Love, love, love it. It's in my top 5..for sure.
However, when I hear Gary Oldman yell, "I WAS TRYING TO FIGHT THE MOB!"...I can't hold back the laughter. I don't know why.

MAJOR LANGUAGE AND CONTENT WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I always just found the instructor to be hilarious just for his screaming, and even in his final moments and when he got shot I thought it was hilarious...though when Pyle offs himself it wasn't funny anymore.

When Sofia Coppola got shot at the end of "Godfather III". That made me laugh just reading it. The scene in Jaws III where the shark crashes through the glass of the control room. The effect is not just cheesey because it was originally shot in 3D. The shark is moving toward the screen in slow motion, but it doesn't even appear to be swimming. In fact it looks like a still photograph being slowly pushed toward the screen. No tail movement or anything. Add to that the extreme closeup shots of each character with their eyes slowly getting wider before the glass suddenly shatters toward the screen. It cracks me up every time.

I understand this is a musical, but I remember my senior year of high school, watching West Side Story in Music Appreciation class. Well, it was the scene in the end where Chino ends up shooting Tony, and as one of the main women in the movie holds him dying in her arms, she starts singing quietly.
I start laughing. The simple fact that she went into song at that moment, when you had nothing of this sort during the rest of the movie got to me, and I end up calling it out. Exact words: "I understand it's a musical and all, but why the hell do you need to go into a song when your boyfriend is freakin' dying?"
The teacher got a kick out of it. So I did something right there.

Needless to say, the teacher was none too pleased, but I did get the person next to me to laugh just as hard as I was. THIS. Me and a classmate of mine were the only two people laughing at the end. It was just so sudden, it felt like something out of a comedy movie, we couldn't help ourselves.

I don't know why. One from the Dark Knight that makes me laugh is right after Harvey Dent first shows signs of craziness by flipping the coin for one of Joker's henchmens life and Batman comes in and says he's going to unmask and Dent yells at the top of his lungs YOU CAN'T GIVE IN!!!

My Uncle told me that him and a friend went to see "Out of Africa" when it came out and there's a scene where Meryl Streep's character reveals that she has syphilis. He said his friend just started hysterically laughing and the whole theater gasped. I guess somebody went and told the theatrermanager and he came up and asked them to leave, but my Uncle's friend told him that he paid his money, just like every one else and he thought the scene was funny. All the manager could do was turn around and leave.

I know everyone in the theatre got a kick out of Macalay Culkin's character dying in My Girl, but at that time everyone was suffering from Culkin Overdose Syndrome.
Everyone in the theatre also giggled like a schoolgirl when Yoda got set to whoop ass on Dooku.

I've been told about how my mother and one of my aunts went to see Gremlins when it came out in 1986 (I think?), and that as soon as Phoebe Cates told the story of "Santa" in her family's chimney, my aunt burst out laughing. Slightly awkward. They lampooned that scene in Gremlins 2, so I think it was like that for a lot of folks.

Basically, any time Tom Hanks is in a serious role.
There's always that one scene. You know, the one the means to pull at your heart-strings, and after it's initial impact I always find myself thinking "Bwahahaha! He was on 'Bosom Buddies'!!! He wins Oscars now."

Don't know if it was originally intended to be funny, but the end of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre where the Hitchhiker gets smacked by the semi....that just made me damn near piss myself. His terrified "comedy take" into the camera as the big rig bears down on him is like something out of Looney Tunes.
