19 Movie Scenes People Think Deserve More Credit For How Absolutely Hilarious They Are

There are plenty of famous movie scenes that everyone knows, even if they haven’t seen the movies themselves. For example, I haven’t seen Star Wars (sorry, I know), but it feels like I have based on hearing people talk about it and quote their favorite lines.

However, there are movie scenes that often go unnoticed by the masses but are beloved by fans. Some of these scenes deserve more credit.

Here’s how movie fans responded when asked, “What’s the absolute funniest movie scene that never gets any credit?”

1. Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion (1997)

“My sisters and I used to rewind and replay the part when Lisa Kudrow got hit by the limo and rolled across the entire length of it over and over again.”

“The tripping at school scene is one of my favorite five minutes of any comedy, especially their initial run-in with the coach. The whole movie is so hilarious and so quotable, but that specific scene still kills me 10 years later.”

4. Galaxy Quest (1999)

“When the crew goes down to the alien planet to get the berylliam sphere — it gets me every time. From Tim Allen rolling around like an action star to Alan Rickman reading the tracker wrong to Sam Rockwell freaking out about getting killed. And the miner/minor joke? Gold. I think the scene is capped off well with the rock monster scene, also. Great movie.”
