The funniest part of the movie?


I really think the funniest part of movie is when Jim Carrey impersonates a chicken/hen after his first wrestling match!!! I can't stop from laughing when I see it! LOL

Anytime Tony Clifton was on screen. I can't stop laughing. Simple things like how he sucks the spaghetti when Shapiro shows up in the kitchen.

For me one of my personal favorites is during the wrestling match when Andy yells, "and I do not appreciate when dumb stupid crackers like your self try to fight me in the ring!". Something along those lines. Love it!

And for those that say Jim Carrey did an impersonation: You are all morons.

Jim Carrey was brilliant. And is HIGHY underrated.

I nearly died laughing when he was showing the Tennessee audience how to use a bar of soap.

Have you ever seen the real clip of that? Funny as hell.
Just type in "I'm From Hollywood" at YouTube.com. It'll bring up various parts of the special.
The real Andy taunting the southerners is a great deal funnier than Jim doing it.

What about the old lady "dying" of a heart attack at the Carnegie Hall concert while Kaufman is freaking out conducting the orchestra...you know what's coming next, but it still cracks me up!

Yes, this is probably the funniest part of the movie, but the wrestling scenes were comedic, too.

Being laid out with his jacket over his arm. I just get a kick out of that.

Swing away, Merrill....Merrill, swing away...

My 3 lol scenes are

Shapiro:Your so proud, your like a little kid Look Dad I Got An F

Andy referring to firing Tony Clifton: A-Just let him down gently *Next Scene* TC: *beep* YOU!

Andy to elderly guest:Can you do your old number from the movie "well I don't think..." "OK TAKE IT AWAY"

I know it wasn't quoted perfectly but those always make me laugh

I wish I can go back in time and pinch those chubby little cheeks and tell you nothing will be ok.

All of Tony Cliftons scenes - should of had his own spin off film.

Jim Careys Tony Clifton is actually funnier & better than anyone else performing as Clifton ...including Andy!

Oops your sat in cottage cheese...oh no wait thats..

In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
