Really, there are so many scenes that made me laugh in the film. I have already mentioned the Bridge of Death scene, but . . .?! another one that I liked a lot, which still makes me laugh is the scene featuring the King of Swamp Castle and his son Prince Herbert, where the King says:

"One day, lad, all this will be yours," as he points toward the window in the Prince's room, but . . .?! the Prince thinks his father the King is pointing toward the window curtains, so the Prince says: "What the curtains?"

LOL! I always enjoy the absurdity of conversations, where two people are speaking to each other, and one is speaking figuratively, and the other is speaking literally.

Hah I feel like even when we are both old and our memories are fading, me and my sister will still be able to quote the entire Arthur/Dennis back and forth verbatim.
