I guess I'm a little handicapped when it comes to comedies. Surely the following scene was memorable.

I pretty much lived that scene in my youth.  Chances are the song would have been from Kiss instead of Queen, however.  One of my favorites.

Just saw "Pirate Radio." They use music brilliantly throughout...two great moments involve the Who. The first is when the government sends out combat boats at night to attack the Rock Radio ship, to the ominous intro of "I Can See for Miles." The second is when the ship is sinking, and a blast of water is timed perfectly with the "YEAHHHHH!" scream from "Won't Get Fooled Again."

Has to be "Jumpin' Jack Flash" as Johnny Boy is walking through the bar in "Mean Streets" and while we're at it, "Be My Baby" on the opening credits as well !

You Can Leave Your Hat On on The Full Monty. Sorry about the French dubbing. Couldn't find a clip of the original.
