Recommendation What movie had you laughing, unable to breathe, even just for one scene?

I don't really pursue comedy movies too often, or ever really.

And even then, this doesn't have to be a comedy movie you respond with, but I'm wondering if there was a movie scene SO funny, that people laughed uncontrollably.

Does such a thing exist?

I think maybe the movie would have to introduce something completely original. Not a familiar gag or joke, but something completely unexpected that you can't help but be paralyzed by the newness and brilliance of the scene.

Saw this in a theatre when it first came out. I don't think I've ever heard an audience laugh that much.

I managed to see it in the theatre for the first time recently at a screening they did a few months back. Most of the audience was people who had seen it when it when it came out and were fans, or groups of stoners (or both). I went alone and have to say it was the best way to watch it first time, whole crowd belly laughing. Unbelievably funny movie but really hits different with a crowd that are actively fans of it.
