Probably Lethal Weapon, but no 21/22 Jump Street?

While I'll always love Lethal Weapon...

Running Scared is one of my favorites. So many quotes...

Lethal Weapon out of what's named thus far.

As for Jackie Chan, I always dug him and Owen Wilson in the Shanghai movies more than Chris Tucker in Rush Hour.

Ferrell/wahlberg- the other guys


I know I'm probably in the minority, but I thought they played well off each other.

Re: Favorite "Buddy Cop" pairing.
"Buddy Cop" is sort of a movie genre within itself, so I wouldn't count LA Confidential as part of that crowd. Of those listed, I'd go with Lethal Weapon (although it quickly turned into a parody of itself in no time flat).

48 Hours. Nolte & Murphy had great chemistry, and this to me when Eddie Murphy was at his peak. His speech inside the redneck bar is still hilarious 34 years later:



[Shaking down a redneck, Reggie pulls a wad of money from his pocket]

Reggie: Man, you loaded here. What the fuck's this?

Redneck: Tax refund!

Reggie: Bullshit! You're too fuckin' stupid to have a job!


or

Reggie: Never seen so many backwards ass country fucks in my life.


or



Redneck: What kind of cop are you?

Reggie: You know what I am? I'm your worst fuckin' nightmare, man. I'm a nig*er with a badge which means I got permission to kick your fuckin' ass whenever I feel like it!
