I loved the scene where Nicholas Cage pulls the pin from the hand grenade on the giant's bandoleer, and says, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," as the giant gets blown to smithereens. I thought that was funny as hell.

But there are more similarly macabre and funny moments in Blood Simple.

I've only seen Hudsucker Proxy, O Brother, and Raising Arizona from that list. I did not like Raising Arizona, but that might have been because I was younger (I think high school) when I saw it. Hudsucker and O Brother are great, great movies and O Brother is one of my all-time favorites.
