Forget all those other movies, Raising Arizona is by far the best movie on this list

2022-08-23 05:56:47 +0000 UTCRecently showed my girlfriend both "Fast Times" and "Caddyshack" since they're iconic 80s films she hadn't seen. She loved them both but "Fast Times" was by far her favorite. It's also iconic and was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

2022-07-25 03:29:15 +0000 UTCthey should see The Bad News Bears so they can get a taste of peak Walter Matthau

2022-07-24 17:01:47 +0000 UTCI love Major League, but there are so many much better films in this list, it's too bad Major League seems like it will win this poll.

2022-07-21 17:59:31 +0000 UTCI agree with that one along with The Odd Couple (1968) and The Out-of-Towners (1970). Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau movies are so good!

2022-07-21 00:28:07 +0000 UTCI’m going to suggest ‘Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story’ because I can’t think of another reactor that would not only watch it but have a few laughs along the way🤣.

2022-07-21 00:14:19 +0000 UTCI'm not a fan of the movie, but Spicoli is still one of the most fascinating performances I've ever seen.

2022-07-20 10:07:44 +0000 UTCAs Good As It Gets (1997) needs a shot at the title

2022-07-20 10:07:33 +0000 UTCI saw Parenthood and don't remember Keanu or Joaquin at all! but being older, that tends to happen 🙂

2022-07-20 10:06:26 +0000 UTCAs Good As It Gets (1997), great film 👍🏼

2022-07-20 10:02:30 +0000 UTCI also support Grumpy Old Men and the sequel Grumpier Old Men
Jonathan Patrick
2022-07-20 06:11:46 +0000 UTCMidnight Run (1988) is a favorite. I love Charles Grodin. watch your cigarettes Jack.

Florian Meier
2022-07-19 08:58:48 +0000 UTCSomeone already mentioned it but totally As Good As It Gets (1997) and maybe Knives Out (2019) if you guys have not yet watched it!

2022-07-19 06:50:02 +0000 UTCIf you haven't seen them, I cannot recommend these three enough I Love You, Man Chef Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping
kbobravo
2022-07-19 06:40:24 +0000 UTCThe Hudsucker Proxy and O Brother, Where Art Thou? are my favorites. I generally don't care for a lot of their filmography, but I can appreciate the work they put into their movies.
Donna Castellano
2022-07-19 06:36:05 +0000 UTCI don't dislike it, but it is far down the Coen's filmography for me. Will never understand why it gets praised the way it does.

2022-07-19 06:29:19 +0000 UTCI gotta be the only person who doesn't like Raising Arizona.
Donna Castellano
2022-07-19 03:59:49 +0000 UTCI second Grumpy Old Men and the sequel.
Drzergberg
2022-07-19 01:42:11 +0000 UTCOh wow, some good ones on here! Sad to see Hudsucker getting killed by Arizona, though :(
Uncle 'Traveling' Matt
2022-07-19 00:41:09 +0000 UTCI'd like to recommend Grumpy Old Men, Sister Act, and Three Men and a Baby for comedies. All three have sequels, and in all cases, while the originals are wonderful, in my opinion, the sequels are even better. All six are super funny, laugh out loud feel good movies I think you guys would love.
Raven Dark
2022-07-18 23:10:02 +0000 UTCSo many great choices this time round. Decisions, decisions...
Guston Zimasheen
2022-07-18 23:07:39 +0000 UTC"Midnight Run" (1988) A Robert Deniro action/comedy.
Mr. Writhms
2022-07-18 21:52:36 +0000 UTCThe Nice Guys (2016) is a great comedy.
YoureMrLebowski
2022-07-18 21:46:35 +0000 UTCI see 6 or 7 essential movies here. I went with "This Is Spinal Tap," but I could just as easily picked a few others.
Michael Buhl
2022-07-18 21:44:48 +0000 UTCCoen!!! Raising Arizona and/or Hudsucker
Michael Soukup
2022-07-18 21:11:00 +0000 UTCUncle Buck all day, everyday!
Michael Chavira
2022-07-18 21:10:24 +0000 UTCDazed & Confused is my favorite film of all time.
David Crabtree
2022-07-18 20:38:35 +0000 UTCI would also suggest, "Freebie and the Bean" (1974). One of the forerunners, if not the original, of the "buddy cop" movies. Stars the late, great James Caan and Alan Arkin.
Miles E Coburn
2022-07-18 20:35:20 +0000 UTCAmazing I haven't seen it reacted to anywhere. A classic.
Jonathan Patrick
2022-07-18 20:29:48 +0000 UTCIf I remember right, you guys were considering a "Golden Age of Hollywood" deep dive. And that brings to mind several must watch, classic comedies. Among many others I recommend: THE GREAT RACE 1965. IT'S A MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD 1963. And THE ODD COUPLE 1968.
Gerald Corona
2022-07-18 20:22:52 +0000 UTCA Great Comedy Movie is "As Good As It Gets" from 1997 with Jack Nicholson, Helen Hunt and Greg Kinnear !!! Oscar Performance from Nicholson !!! And "Space Cowboys" from 2000 with Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones and Donald Sutherland
Florian Meier
2022-07-18 20:17:40 +0000 UTCYour comment brings to mind one of the all time slapstick comedy classics. IT'S A MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD 1963. "A comedy to end all comedies." It give a whole new meaning to the phrase Stacked Cast!
Gerald Corona
2022-07-18 20:16:05 +0000 UTCYes!! Crocodile Dundee !!!

2022-07-18 20:15:10 +0000 UTC"The official story is he choked on vomit." "Although they couldn't actually prove whose vomit it was." "Can't really dust for vomit."

Rudy Hernandez
2022-07-18 18:45:58 +0000 UTCNice, The Hudsucker Proxy made the list, another great Coen brother film. You two have to watch this one because, you know, 'for the kids'.
Allister Fiend
2022-07-18 18:33:48 +0000 UTCI’m going to encourage you to go back a few more years: 1972’s “What’s Up, Doc?” starring Barbra Streisand and Ryan O’Neal, directed by Peter Bogdanovich. It’s the director’s homage to the great screwball comedies of the 1930s and ‘40s—fast-paced (and witty) dialogue, unlikely coincidences, slapstick comedy, etc. Definitely worth a watch.
