Funniest
Blazing Saddles - the whole damned movie.
Saddest
Just about any WWI movie. Just my understanding how that generation was pointlessly destroyed in the most stupidest fought war in all history. (I use bad grammar for that last sentence, because the war was so stupid.)

Can't find any Youtube clips for them, but:
Funniest - Any of the iconic quote portions of Disney's the Three Musketeers (with Kiefer Sutherland); esp. "You're a Musketeer? You're all Musketeers?!"
Saddest - Marley & Me has to be it, because it's the only sad movie moment I can think of at the moment.

Funniest - The first time I saw the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man in Ghostbusters made me lose my shit. Just lose it. It's not as funny to me now but the first time it was revealed I lost it.
The saddest? Either Dead Poet's Society right after Neil died or Stevo finding Bob dead in SLC Punk.
Start it at 1:28. No, you don't have to have any back story if you haven't seen it.

Funniest: Trying to think of what made me laugh the heartiest. Recently, it would be Hulk's punch out of nowhere to Thor in The Avengers.
Saddest: No particular scene, but I openly weep during nearly the entirety of What Dreams May Come.

Funniest: This is tough, but for now I'll say the whole dinner scene in Young Frankenstein. I'd prefer to say the whole movie, though.
Saddest: I'll go with this bit of Up, for a personal reason I'll go into after the link:
Easter weekend of 2009, about a month after I'd moved away from home, my 15 year old doberman was put down due to his back legs giving out on him completely. I was stressed from money/job issues, depressed as I knew only my roommate out there, and on top of that the dog was put down while I was far away. This scene brought a flood of memories with him back and I lost it in the middle of the theater, crying like a baby. Hell, watching the scene now I got all misty.

I think one of my favorites is the scene in Disney's Beauty and the Beast where Beast says, "Stupid."
But I'm thinking of another one that would be funnier to more forum goers. There's a scene in the movie Volere Volare where one of the main characters (a cartoon foley artist) has to take over for his brother (a porn foley artist). Hilarity ensues.
Saddest for me is probably still the finale of the Valse Triste from Allegro Non Troppo. When you finally realize what is going on, you just get all

I can't rate all-time for either; I'd have too many to chose, so I'll just give a pair that get to me.
Funny
Anchorman: The street brawl.
Sad
Edward Scissorhands: "Goodbye."

Funniest, "The Voice" montage from Hotrod.
Saddest, <insert most of the endings from my Asian melodrama collection>

This has the rare distinction of qualifying as both:
The funniest scene I can think of right now...
Dear lord it still gets me every fucking time
The saddest one I can think of right now is this scene from Reign Over Me, the best acting by Adam Sandler to date (if you don't count Happy Gilmore.)
Skip to 2:40 for the actual monologue, but for the whole set up, watch the whole clip. If you haven't seen the movie, it's quite good, I recommend it.

That made me cry. You win.
really. the farting scene from eddie murphy's the nutty professor. really.
For saddest I was trying to find the scene from The Hunt for Red October...
Added at: 12:44
where Sam Neil's character dies and he says "I wished to see Montana."
Dick and Fart Jokes are Comedy Gold...
I love a good fart joke. See: Blazing Saddles, the episode of Louie with his sister.
I'm with RavenPoe. You win on both.
Well hot damn! Drinks on me, boys!
The tv edit of Blazing Saddles is even better. For whatever reason, they edit out the farts. It's just this awkward scene of dudes sitting around a fire in silence, randomly lifting a leg here and there.
They replace the farts with horse whinnies. It's pretty surreal.
Young Frankenstein cracks me up. I don't even have to watch the movie. I just have to see the name and I start laughing.
Saddest I had a hard time choosing because a lot of movies make me cry even if they aren't necessarily sad. This is from the end of Braveheart when William Wallace is being tortured. I always needs tissues when I watch it.

Another vote for Young Frankenstein? I don't care what Dave says about you, WP, you're awesome.
Watching movies on normal television is worthless. If you've seen a movie "on TV" (of course, barring HBO/Showtime, et al), you haven't seen the movie.
It's a combination of the farting, his father and grandmother sniping at each other, the mother trying to keep the peace, and the kid laughing so hard that he chokes on his food.
Though sometimes it can be interesting enough to make you want to see the uncensored/uncut movie. That's what happened to me with Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Though I was about 8 at the time I watched it on tv so many of the jokes were lost on me anyway. I still thought it was the funniest movie ever and when it finally came out on VHS I had to have it.
God I'm old.
