Slater and Michaels, Superbad

When Slater (Bill Hader) and Michaels (Seth Rogen) are on the case, you're more likely to find them having shooting contests or popping wheelies in empty parking lots than actually arresting criminals. That's what happens when you booze on the job.

I'm glad they left off Bad Boys 1 and 2 because I generally can't stand anything directed by Michael Bay and also because he ripped off two ideas from a much better Jacky Chan movie. The beautiful witness complication in Bad Boys and the shanty town chase at the opening of Bad Boys 2 were both ripped off from the much better and much more entertaining Jacky Chan movie Police Story. Sylvester Stallone standing with the gun pointed in front of the semi until it stopped right in front of him in Tango and Cash which was also from Police Story, except that Jacky Chan did it with a bus full of bad guys and by accident the stuntmen playing the bad guys flew right through the bus window when it made a sudden stop right of front of Jacky and it is shown in the blooper real the end of the movie. Also I agree with a lot of others on here, about the absence of Lethal Weapon, it is one of the quintessential cop buddy movies. How about Alan Arkin and James Caan from Freebie and The Bean?

Instead of Jacky Chan and Chris Tucker in "Rush Hour" how about Jacky Chan and Michelle Yeoh in "Police Story 3: Supercop? Supercop has both Chan and Yeoh in their prime and both of them do some amazing stunts, fights and action scenes that make Rush Hour look like a pale imitation. Rush Hour is an overrated mediocre cop comedy and catches Jacky Chan just over his prime, Hollywood in my opinion with the exception of Shanghai Noon and Shanghai Nights struck out with Jacky Chan in his first Hollywood attempt in the early 80's and in his Hollywood comeback in the late 90's near the tail end of his action movie career.

Riggs and Murtaugh from Lethal Weapon are without a doubt the best movie cop duo ever and leaving them off the list shows you are without a doubt the dumbest person ever
