How can anyone consider this a comedy there was not one joke.

I laughed my way through adaptation and that is not a comedy. I did not laugh once the entire movie and was bored silly by the story.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 2/10

Well...first off, you need to be semi-intelligent to get the humor....I guess that leaves you out, huh?

Shop smart, Shop S-Mart....you GOT that?!?

Southernman don't need not golf around, anyhow.

I tell ya, I like the sound of a Beer Church.

Nathan ____Arizona: "Sometimes Southernman don't need not golf around. . ." Did you mean a round of golf? Southernman needs to stick with the 3 Stooges and leave the movies with wit to those of us who like intelligent humor. Perhaps it was just too subtle for him.

Some movies are released; others sneak out.

this discussion is boring.
Raising Arizona is in my all time top 100 movies. And it's one of the top 10 most quotable.

Oops, I think you missed Nathan Arizona's wry humor.

Sweet home Arizona...

I disagree completely with your view of 'Raising Arizona' as well.
