neutral · AI labelView post →When I think of peak Cohen Brothers, the movie that comes to mind is the 1987 film Raising Arizona.
positive · AI labelView post →The Huggies Chase in RAISING ARIZONA is more thrilling than any sequence in any FAST/FURIOUS movie.
positive · AI labelView post →I watched Raising Arizona last night for the first time and Nic Cage's look is kind of amazing in it. Anyway, have a suuuper fuckin quick H.I. McDunnough #art #niccage #raisingarizona
neutral · AI labelView post →Chef's kiss! @blankcheck.bsky.social is dedicating the rest of the year to the Coen bros. My experience with Raising Arizona is identical to @hodgman.bsky.social This is exactly what happened to me in the movie theater in 1987 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...
neutral · AI labelView post →My younger daughter just texted me about Dolly, which reminded me that 9 to 5 was one of our July 4 Movie Marathon movies the year she was seven. Also that year? Raising Arizona and Star Wars. Which means the kid found out about Dolly Parton and Nicolas Cage and Carrie Fisher ON THE SAME DAY.

positive · AI labelView post →Re-watching Raising Arizona for the like 20th time, and it is always shocking to me that people consistently rank it in the bottom half of the Coens' films. It is one of the best American comedies ever made, and the "Huggies Scene" is one of the best sequences in a film, ever.

positive · AI labelView post →quite possibly my favorite Coen Bros film, maybe tied with Raising Arizona (for the uninitiated, this is from Miller's Crossing)
positive · AI labelView post →Without saying Raising Arizona, fav Nicolas Cage Film?
neutral · AI labelView post →Now watching the greatest Coen brothers film ever made, Raising Arizona (1987). This is an amazing movie. It needed to exist. The whole cast is perfect. Other than, Naked Gun, this is the hardest I have ever laughed in my life. To this day. God do I love this movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Both 1987 flicks; it was a banger year for movies, and also has my own favorite movie besides The Princess Bride (Raising Arizona), not to mention Moonstruck and Broadcast News.
positive · AI labelView post →Hundreds of Beavers descend on the TexasTheater in Dallas tonight July 26 (second show July 31)! This is one of the most visually original & hilarious comedies I’ve seen, up there with Raising Arizona & the best of Looney Tunes. I’m hosting! Come by, say hi!

neutral · AI labelView post →Happy Birthday to incredibly versatile & fearless Holly Hunter, 3/20/1958. Sounds silly, but I find Hunter pretty irresistible! Quirky & hilarious, her presence always makes me smile (even in deadly serious drama). Loved her in RAISING ARIZONA (1987) & never stopped! #filmsky 📽

positive · AI labelView post →Tonight’s family film: Raising Arizona. Because it’s brilliant.
positive · AI labelView post →Followed up with baby’s first Coen Brothers movie, Raising Arizona. The kiddo — determined to stay up past midnight to see the ball drop — was in stitches.
positive · AI labelView post →Raising Arizona is a top 5 movie. Perfect start to finish. Not a wasted nor missing frame, edited perfectly.
positive · AI labelView post →Every week we do a pizza/movie night with the kids. Last night we watched Raising Arizona and I’m happy to report both my kids loved it. Thank goodness. I would have disowned them if they didn’t.
positive · AI labelView post →I was already a 15yo movie nerd in 1987 but going to see Raising Arizona, by myself*, was a monumental experience. * my sister was doing something else. my friends said the movie looked dumb. so I went by myself. That's the day I became a grown-up movie nerd.

Raising Arizona shows them stepping in a pile of wackiness. The entire movie is flawless, but this prison escape scene/shot is a favorite youtu.be/klwrT8rMu5c?...

positive · AI labelView post →The funniest sequence in any movie ever filmed is either John Goodman and William Forsythe escaping from prison as though it was giving birth to them, in RAISING ARIZONA, OR The sequence where Nic Cage is trying to steal diapers while more and more cops and dogs chase him, in RAISING ARIZONA.
positive · AI labelView post →When Raising Arizona came out, I thought there could never be a funnier and more fun-to-watch American comedy film than that, but those guys literally outdid themselves with this one IMO. Every time I see that cover picture, I just can't help but smile.
positive · AI labelView post →Tell us the truth. Holly Hunter actually directed some of the film. I love Showalter but who gets in the way of Holly Hunter. Now I need to rewatch ‘Raising Arizona’ ASAP.
neutral · AI labelView post →John Goodman owns this film, just like he owns Barton Fink. He also almost steals Raising Arizona.
neutral · AI labelView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Day #90 "Raising Arizona" (Joel Coen/1987) I'm not even really sure how to describe this movie other than awesome! It's super quirky with a great cast! Just an all-around good time. If you haven't already, check this one out!
positive · AI labelView post →rewatching Raising Arizona, the kind of movie where I am so into it and everything it stands for within one perfect first minute
positive · AI labelView post →Raising Arizona is better than any film Anderson has made.
positive · AI labelView post →It’s my birthday so I treated myself by watching The Wrong Trousers earlier and watching Raising Arizona now, which means today I get to watch two of the greatest chase sequences ever set to film.
positive · AI labelView post →My ★★★★★ review of Raising Arizona boxd.it/9qUCiF "Give me that baby, you warthog from Hell!" Before all won Oscars, the Coen Brothers, Nicholas Cage, Holly Hunter, & Frances McDormand assembled for this masterpiece of comic mischief & mayhem. Chaotic, hysterical, surprisingly sweet. #filmsky 📽
positive · AI labelView post →Not sure there's been much put to film better than that first ten minutes of RAISING ARIZONA. A shame the film doesn't work for some (sorry) folks, but for those it does? Few come close.
positive · AI labelView post →The first 10 minutes of Raising Arizona is the most brilliant piece of film narrative ever.
positive · AI labelView post →Eleven: Raising Arizona 1987. I love this movie. Its the one where the Coen brothers found their magic. Its the purest of the bunch. 10/10 I’d steal this baby
positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching RAISING ARIZONA (1987). Directors: Joel & Ethan Coen. Nicolas Cage, Holly Hunter. Perhaps the Coen's wacky comedy about baby-napping is too frantic for some, but I thought it was funniest film of 1987. Seen many times, but not in last decade. #filmsky 📽
positive · AI labelView post →Am I wrong that at least one person on this planet went to see “Raising Arizona” thinking it was a movie about Pearl Harbor?

neutral · AI labelView post →I haven’t seen a movie with Cage I’ve liked since Raising Arizona. He’s just the worst actor….. It’s a shame, because Madden’s story is very cool.
negative · AI labelView post →I always prefer to frame things as “Favorite” instead of “Best.” The former really drives home how subjective it all is. Some days my favorite film is 1933 King Kong and some days it’s Raising Arizona. There’s a group of maybe fifty films, maybe more, that are the “big favorites.”
positive · AI labelView post →Both came early in their respective careers but went on to be genre and career defining works. Character driven stories with strong emotional cores that play with genre and surreal elements, Daredevil: Born Again (1986) is to comics what Raising Arizona (1987) is to film. In this essay--
neutral · AI labelView post →RAISING ARIZONA (1987, DVD, #film) A funny as fuck live-action cartoon about babynapping where every single person on screen for any amount of time is stealing the scene. Surreally well-written, well-shot, well-edited, well-judged, and well-delivered. Top marks for young Nicholas Cage pit shots.
positive · AI labelView post →I love The Big Lebowski, but Raising Arizona best Coen Bros film for me.
positive · AI labelView post →fav film from the year 67, 77, 87, and 97? 67 - Viy 77 - Suspiria 87 - Raising Arizona 97 - Starship Troopers
positive · AI labelView post →First Coen Brothers movie with the kids last night felt like a mini milestone. Raising Arizona is one of my all-time favourites, and they loved it too - really chuckling along. It’ll be a while before they’re old enough to watch any others - maybe The Hudsucker Proxy in a few weeks.

positive · AI labelView post →Raising Arizona: still a great film.
positive · AI labelView post →I'm gonna see Honey, Don't (probably), but Drive-Away Dolls felt like a movie made by someone who was a big fan of Raising Arizona, not one of the people who actually made Raising Arizona.
