I just remembered the moment that made me laugh the hardest in AOTC, and deserves to be in my top ten:
When Obi Wan sits at the counter in the bar and 'persuades' the lowlife: 'You want to go home and rethink your life.'
"I'm going to go home now and rethink my life."
For about 15 seconds I couldn't stop giggling silently...

I really liked Kit's smile, as well. It was really funny. :) Obi's off-comment, "Why do I have the feeling you're going to be the death of me?" took a moment to sink it, but was insidiously funny.

Yoda vs Count Dooku
The carbon freezing chamber scene
The Millennium Falcon lifting off from Docking Bay 94 in the ANH SE
Shmi dying in Anakin's arms, and the expression on his face when he looks up, such darkness and hatred
"I am a Jedi, like my father before me."
The pod race
The Duel of the Fates
"This party's over," followed by the sight and sound of dozens of lightsabers being activated
The Falcon through the asteroid field
"The Force is with you, young Skywalker...but you are not a Jedi yet."

Mine is in order of favourites, in ascending order:
10: Artoo and Threepio arguing with and slandering each other all the time, any time.
9: Artoo and Threepio on the Conveyor Belt - AOTC
8: The Asteroid Field - TESB
7: The Ground Battle - AOTC
6: The Arena Scene - AOTC
5: Han - detention block scene: "He's the brains sweetheart!" - and the ten or so minutes that follow it. - ANH
4: Han - Ewok scene: And hurry it up, will ya? I haven't got all day! - ROTJ
3: Han - Ewok scene:"Well why don't you use your divine influence and get us out of this?" - ROTJ
2: Han's ad lib explanation in the detention block;
Han: "Everything is under control. Situation normal."
Intercom voice: "What happened?"
Han: "Um...had a slight weapons malfunction. But, uh, everythings perfectly alright now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?"
Intercom voice: "We're sending a squad up."
Han: "Uh, uh, negative. We have a large reactor leak here now. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak...very dangerous."
Intercom voice: "Who is this? What's your operating number?"
BANG!!!
Han: "Boring conversation anway - LUKE WE'RE GONNA HAVE COMPANY!!!" - ANH
1: Yoda vs Dooku - from the moment you see Yoda's shadow to the moment Dooku escapes. - AOTC

In no particular order... because that would hurt my head:
1. Han trying to explain away everything to the Death Star cell block console - Ep. IV
2. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon's duel with Darth Maul - Ep. I
3. Luke's duel with Darth Vader and the subsequent frying by and death of the Emperor - Ep. VI
4. The entire space battle of Return of the Jedi - Ep. VI
5. The entire arena battle of Attack of the Clones - Ep. II
6. Obi-Wan, Anakin and Yoda's duel with Darth Tyrannus - Ep. II
7. Luke's duel with Darth Vader - Ep. V
8. The entire carbonite freezing chamber scene with Han and Leia... and Chewie... and Vader, and Boba, and Threepio, and heck nevermind all of it - Ep. V
9. Han chasing down a squad of stormtroopers and then running away from them when they stop and turn around - Ep. IV
10. Boba holding Jango's helmet up - Ep. II
Apparently Return of the Jedi and Attack of the Clones are really hashing it out for my favourite Star Wars movie. Ep. II has more favourite moments, but I love my RotJ moments more... plus I couldn't put them ALL in.

In no particular order:
1. Han's carbonite freezing chamber scene.
2. Han chasing the stormtroopers before before happening upon a large squad of troopers.
3. Han's detection cell scene.
4. Luke/Vader duel I in ESB
5. Luke/Vader duel II in ROTJ
6. The verbal exchange between Obi-Wan and Jango. And the subsequent duel.
7. Obi-Wan's starfighter pursuit of Slave-1 in the asteroid field around Genosia. Awesome visual and audible effects. Seismic charges really rocked and so did Slave-1's twin cannons.
8. Dooku duel with Obi-Wan and Anakin. After defeating them... the duel with Yoda.
9. Anakin's rage and sorrow at the death of Shmi and killing the raiders in a blind rage.
10. The complete genosian arena scene.
There are so many more other scenes but can only list ten.
