My favourite is when Harry's been sent to see Professor McGonagall

"Is it true you shouted at Professor Umbridge?"
"Yes," said Harry.
"You called her a liar?"
"Yes."
"You told her He Who Must Not Be Named is back?"
"Yes."
Professor McGonagall sat down behind her desk, watching Harry closely. Then she said, "Have a biscuit, Potter."

McGonagall was great in this book. My favorite of hers is when she tells Peeves that the chandelier unscrews the other way.

That was a funny scene. I also liked when Umbridge is first in McGonagall's room, asking her if she read the note. McGonagall replies along the lines of, Of course I read it or I would have asked what you are doing in my classroom. McGonagall had some good scenes in the book, so it's only natural they are cut from the movie.

So hillarious. I love the way tensions built up.
One of the funniest for me:

"You're going to pay," said Malfoy in a voice barely louder than a whisper. "I'm going to make you pay for what you've done to my father...."
"Well, I'm terrified now,...I s'pose Lord Voldemort's just a warm-up act compared to you three."

This one makes me laugh. Laughing

Draco: "You see, I, unlike you, have been made a prefect, which means that I, unlike you, have the power to hand out punishments."
"Yeah," said Harry, "but you, unlike me, are a git."

My favourite is;

"Mistletoe," said Luna dreamily, pointing at a large clump of white berries placed
almost over Harry's head. He jumped out from under it. "Good thinking," said Luna
very seriously.
"It's often infested with Nargles."

"You two," she went on, gazing down at Fred and George, "are about to learn what happens to wrongdoers in my school."
"You know what?" said Fred. "I don't think we are."
He turned to his twin.
"George," said Fred, "I think we've outgrown a full-time education."
"Yeah, I've been feeling that way myself," said George lightly.
"Time to test our talents in the real world, d'you reckon?" asked Fred.
"Definitely," said George.
And before Umbridge could say a word, they raised their wants and said together, "Accio Brooms!"
Harry heard a loud crash somewhere in the distance. Looking to his left he ducked just in time -- Fred and George's broomsticks, one still trailing the heavy chain and iron peg with which Umbridge had fastened them to the wall, were hurtling along the corridor toward their owners. They turned left, streaked down the stairs, and stopped sharply in front of the twins, the chain clattering loudly on the flagged stone floor.
"We won't be seeing you," Fred told Professor Umbridge, swinging his leg over his broomstick.
"Yeah, don't bother to keep in touch," said George, mounting his own.
Fred looked around at the assembled students, and at the silent, watchful crowd.
"If anybody fancies buying a Portable Swamp, as demonstrated upstairs, come to number ninety-three Diagon Alley - Weasley's Wizard Wheezes," he said in a loud voice. "Our new premises!"
"Special discounts to Hogwarts students who swear they're going to use our products to get rid of this old bat," said George, pointing at Professor Umbridge.
"STOP THEM!" shrieked Umbridge, but it was too late. As the Inquisitorial Squad closed in, Fred and George kicked off from the floor, shooting fifteen feet into the air, the iron peg swinging dangerously below. Fred looked across the hall at the poltergeist bobbing on his level above the crowd.
"Give her hell from us, Peeves."
And Peeves, whom Harry had never seen take an order from a student before, swept his belled hat from his head and sprang to a salute as Fred and George wheeled about to tumultuous applause from the students below and sped out of the open front doors into the glorious sunset.

I got that from mugglenet.com, there's a whole list of them.

Haha, when I read this, I can really picture Maggie Smith here. Have a biscuit Potter.

The one she offered the cough drop was funny too. For once, Umbridge have to stop with her 'Hem Hem' to get people's attention.

This was too funny. I'm trying to imagine Peeves, hand raised to forheard like a soldier salute, with the most serious face he has ever made and with watery eyes because of what Fred and George said.

And then he goes and thrashes the castle like never before. Too good man, oh... Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
