Not any really hilarious lines or scenes in The Godfather, compared to say a movie like Goodfellas...
but humorous lines are plenty...
I always chuckle at Clemenza riding in the car with Paulie...
"Exterminate? aww, thats a bad word to use...Lucky we don't exterminate you."
Castellano's delivery is great...always laugh at "Awww, Paulie won't see him no more."
"...and then Johnny Fontane comes along with his olive oil voice, and guinea charm..."

[QUOTE]Originally posted by goodfellaoggie: [QB] when fanucci says "looks like there's a $100 under my hat." he looks like a ******. the way he said it and they way he moves.
That always makes me chuckle!
Also when Fanucci is leaving the seats in the theatre and you see that sillhouette of him walking against the stage.
Godftaher II When the bodyguard is in Hyman Roths apartment trying to kill him but the guards disturb him - he hides and through the open door you see him tip-toeing away!!

I thought the seen in Godfather I when Vito's God child cries to his Godfather for help. Vito makes fun of him, calling him a baby. Then Tom Hagen smiles because in the book Hagen is secretedly jealous of him for being his adopted father's God son.

For SURE it's the scene where Sollozzo is talking to Tom after The Don was (supposedly) killed:
Quote: SOLLOZZO It's good business, Tom.
TOM I'll try, but even Sonny won't be able to call off Luca Brasi.
SOLLOZZO Yeah... well, let me worry about Luca.
That ALWAYS gets me! 'Let me worry about Luca,' indeed ...

Am I the only one who thinks this is funny? In G1, when the don has lambasted Bonasera for not showing respect, Bonasera says "be my friend, Godfather?" Brando does this little facial gesture, like he's still sulking. It cracks me up no matter how many times i see it. Also, the "masculine child" line, and when Hyman Roth instructs the guy "make sure everyone see the cake".
What have I done that you would treat me so disrepectfully?

Then just after this when Roth has his cake offered to him he waves it away saying 'a smaller piece' that makes me smile too. In GF2 when Vito and the family are in the 'wine making factory' and he gives little Michael a grape, the childs face is realy amusing as he eats it.

"when roth has his cake offered to him, he waves it away, saying 'a smaller piece'- that makes me smile too" --------------------------------------- I was actually going to include that as well. Roth's portrayal is so flawless! Another funny scene is when Roth tell Michael in his Miami home: "stupid, people behaving like that with guns", and 5 minutes later he condones the killing of Frankie Pantangeles saying "he's small potatoes", while he casually stuffs food in his mouth.

some of my favorites
GFIII: CONNIE:Michael… MICHAEL:Yes? CONNIE:Now they’ll fear you. MICHAEL:Maybe they should fear you
right before the killing of Zasa the whole bit on the car with armand and joey's bull dog
ARMAND:Hey, Joey Zasa! Joey! Up your ass! ARMAND:Hey Joe! Who's gonna win the car, eh? Your aunt? ZASA:Hey. hey, why don't you get off of the fucking car, huh? You got a raffle ticket? ARMAND:Hey Joe, take, take a good look at my raffle ticket, here we go.
GFII: when connies new boyfriend merle kisses mama corleone on the cheek the expression she makes is classic.
GFI: after tom and sonny are arguing over sonny killing tataglia and tom saying this is business not personal, and mikey starts talking about killing mccluskey and sollozzo
SONNY:You're taking this very personal. Tom, this is business and this man is taking it very very personal.
or the final time mike and sonny will see eachother at the dinner table when they are thinking of where to plant the gun
SONNY:Hey, listen, I want somebody good -- and I mean very good -- to plant that gun. I don't want my brother coming out of that toilet with just his dick in his hands, alright?
i am sure theres more, but i dont want to bore you all
In my home! In my bedroom, where my wife sleeps! Where my children come and play with their toys. In my home.

Well adding to the scene at the table when Michael says he joined the marines....my fondest memory and special touch by Puzo and coppola came when all the members of the family wnet to greet their dad at the door and michael was just sitting there...as sonny walked over to greet dad he gives Mike ONE more big brother snipe..lol...he says..
"STUPID" and walks away..THAT was great and really showed the big brother lil brother relationship...lol
WHile the mafia was handling their business in the underworld. The Black gangsters settled beefs within their own communities..also known as the 'Chicago Gang WARS' a story yet to be told....

Another bit is early in GF1 when Vito ushers Johhecks that he is gone. After that he kinda sighs then it cuts to the cake. Its the sigh that gets me. Brando=The Don.

I always find it funny when Michael says to Moe Green "You straightened my brother out"
Michael Corleone: "You straightened my brother out?"

Yeah, this scene. I read this whole thread and you're the only one who mentioned it, but I like the look on Sonny's face right after Michael say's he'll shoot them: "Mr College boy!..."
"...for old times' sake?"

for me some moments are amusing, but mst of the times, these movies are deadly serious and i dont find hardly anything funny
- The 'Exterminate' line by clemenza is great, and brutal! it does make me chuckle
- GFIII - The bloke says 'Up your Ass' to Joey Zasa
- GFIII - Im off to listen to some Tony Bennett Records
- GFIII - When Zasa attempts to join in the fun but nobody wants him
Sonny - Well then, business will have to suffer, all right? And listen, do me a favor, Tom. No more advice on how to patch things up, just help me win, please

At the wedding in GF1 when the guy throws something to Paulie--'I got two gabagoo(?) for you!' and then when paulie goes outside with Sonny. Sonny talks to the FBI guy and Paulie assumes a treatening stance that is really kind of funny and then Sonny breaks the guy's camera and throws the money on the ground and then Paulie kicks the camera and assumes another 'gangster' position revealing that he has a gun in his suit.
I know this has probably been discussed but what is a gabagoo?
"How's the Italian food in this restaurant?'

That`s right! In the books Mario Puzo says the same, it is very funny to see Vito when he says as if he was Johnny Fontane "I don`t know what to do" hahahaha
