Many of you have listed some hilarious movies, the criteria for mine was if it is on tv even though I've seen it a million times will I still watch it. And for all of the above the answer is yes for me. and as a matter of fact Blazing Saddles and Johnny Dangerously are on this weekend and I'll be watching both. Lol

stupid movie but I find it hilarious.
"Some like it hot".
I had a 42 year career in air transportation. Airplane was required viewing for all employees. :)
The Birdcage
The movie you mention was "The Russians are Coming! The Russians are coming!"
The line was, "Emerrrrgency! Emerrrrgency! Everybody to get from street!" A very funny movie with a very hot blonde as one of the townspeople. I was in college when it came out. A bunch of us went through the dorm chorusing that line.

Seeing some of the comments, I definately forgot the "Naked Gun" movies with Leslie Nielson.
And the "Vacation" movies also.
It's a Gift -- W.C. Fields
Duck Soup -- The Marx Brothers
Way Out West -- Laurel & Hardy
Bringing Up Baby
Sullivan's Travels
etc etc
Paint Your Wagon with Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin headlining. Two guys not known for their comedic chops turned in great performances. The scene where the bull runs through the tunnels under the town knocking out the props and causing the whole boomtown to collapse into the earth is a classic. I definitely wouldn't have wanted a "Take two" on that one.
