1. Glenn getting punched in the face.
2. The store clerk not believing the brothers will come back so he gets up only to see the car coming back...so he sits back down and counts some more.
2. The money exploding in the brothers' faces.
3. The bankers telling Holly Hunter (as she's running away from the Devil essentially), "Lay down on the floor, Missy!"
JAWS - best film ever made.
John Goodman's character, explaining his busting out of jail to Ed: "We no longer felt the institution had anything to offer us."
H.I. to Ed: "Now, honey, there's what's right and there's what's right, and never the twain shall meet."
Get me a bromide! And put some gin in it!
RAISING ARIZONA is being shown on Channel 56 on PBSh----don't know if anybody caught it, but I remember seeing on VHS back in the day and loving it because it was so damn crazy,off-the-wall, and funny on top of that. Plus it has so many good actors I like in it that have been good in just about everything I've seen any of them in--besides Nicholas Cage, who's hilarious--as well as Holly Hunter and the rest of the cast. The three most memorable scenes in it for me--which I'm surprised no one's mentioned:
1. H.I. robbing a store and then rushing back out to his car, only to find out he can't get in because he locked the keys in the car---LOL! I swear that was the first time I'd ever seen anything like that in a film, and I LMAO at it!
2. The 2 guys in prison screaming like crazy the whole time they pull themselves out of the mud.
3. The whole entire scene with the running dogs---that was truly a WTF--how-the-hell-did-they ever-get-those-dogs-to-do-all-that moment---it was the top craziest of the crazy scenes in the entire movie,straight up, and memorable is hell---which is why I still remember it after all these years!

Has any other band ever tried to cover the theme to Raising Arizona?
The Merry Olivers did it!

Too many to count, but among them:
"Son, you got a panty on your head."
"H.I., you're young. You got your health. What do you want with a job??"
I see something new every time I watch it. Just this morning, I noticed that the brothers, surrounded by beer cans, are watching some opera. Love it.

-When Leonard Smalls breaks into the McDunnough's place and stares at the word "FART" written on the panelling.
-When HI shows him the pulled grenade pin and slobber drips out of Leonard's mouth.
-The fight between HI and Gale: HI's scraping his knuckles, screaming, and his legs spinning around destroying the place.
-The kid with the eyepatch tossing jello at HI.
-When Leonard bear hugs HI, and HI's blubbering after they realize they have the same tattoo is hilarious.
"Dammit, don't use my real name!"
*thinks a second*
"Even if it's your CODE name???"
"Yeah!! Yeah, ya'll hear that? We're using CODE names!"
Ironically, he'd grown so fat only work-out pants would fit him.
One thing I never picked up on back in the 80s which I recently noticed: When Gale and Evelle break out through the mud, they are screaming like crazy with the prison within earshot. They could have easily given themselves away.
