495733, Bad Boys 1 >>>>>> Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Jan-07-10 06:24 PM
Oh, and it was better than any of the Lethal Weapons too.
Prolly the best stand alone buddy movie ever.
And don't bring that weak 'Tango and Cash' bullshit up
in this piece, god, because I'll put it in the bleachers
and wave my Mutumbo Finger up in hurr
But yeah:
a) Serious crime shit, but still had humorous balance that
keeps it light. To be quite honest, Lethal Weapons got little
niglets getting killed and all that. FOH, I'm trying to relax,
eat Honey Bunches of Oats and calm after work. I'm not tryna be
all sad and shit. That little niglet getting killed? Nigga this
ain't 'The Wire'. FOH.
b) Cry all you want: Will and Martin's charisma and
chemistry(no homo) >>>>>>>>> Just about anyone else's.
Cry.
c) Cinematography: You laugh at that glossy shit all you
want, it WORKED in Bad Boys for the Miami setting. Hell, they
even had Tea Leona looking attractive. That should have gotten
it an academy for special effects off jump

495743, I agree Bad Boys 1 was way better than any of the Lethal Weapons
Posted by calij81, Thu Jan-07-10 07:05 PM
I just find it hard to compare Bad Boys to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I think both of them are good movies and although they are both "buddy" movies, in my opinion it isn't an "apples to apples" comparison.

495773, Mr. Joshua >>> whoever the bad guy in Bad Boys was
Posted by SoulHonky, Thu Jan-07-10 09:23 PM
I thought Riggs was a deeper character and the dialogue was better in Lethal Weapon. Bad Boys is up there in the buddy cop genre (and was funnier) but I'll take Lethal Weapon over it.
|
495776, This is no knock on Lethal Weapon, but I always felt it was too dark
Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Jan-07-10 09:30 PM
It really comprises its replay value
Its some dark, dark, shit man.
Great movies, but Bad Boys way more versatile

495798, See, that's my favorite aspect of it.
Posted by SoulHonky, Thu Jan-07-10 10:31 PM
I thought it was a near perfect balance. They took it to the edge but didn't go so far that it became alienating. Also, I thought it really played into the story. It wasn't just having a dark character for the sake of being dark or because they needed some character beats.
As for Butch and Sundance, it's almost impossible to judge. By the time I saw it, so much of the stuff that made it famous had been copied and/or parodied. Some classic scenes but I don't feel like it aged as well as a lot of other films from that era.

495813, I love Bad Boys 1....and Tea Leoni

I will not disagree.
>a) Serious crime shit, but still had humorous balance that
>keeps it light.
This is true of both movies. Please tell me how one is better than the other.
>
>b) Cry all you want: Will and Martin's charisma and

Does this "anyone else" include Newman/Redford? If yes, do you prefer their chemistry in "The Sting"? If no, why not? How do you rank Smith/Lawrence next to Newman/Redford and why?
>c) Cinematography: You laugh at that glossy shit all you
>want, it WORKED in Bad Boys for the Miami setting. Hell, they

I enjoy both.
Again...
please tell me why one is better than the other.
Otherwise,
turn this into a
"Bad Boys is a great movie" post,
and I will then join you.

496014, no scene in bad boys is as good as rules in a knife fight, or
Posted by veritas, Fri Jan-08-10 10:36 PM
"i can't swim"
not even close.
i'd give it the nod over the lethal weapons though, but i'm not a big fan of them.

496069, FOH with it's better than Lethal Weapon
Posted by shockzilla, Sat Jan-09-10 02:54 PM
1 or 2.
it IS damn good, but come on.
bad boys 2 is fucking awful, though.

496115, RE: FOH with it's better than Lethal Weapon
Posted by CanUooooFeeLiT, Sat Jan-09-10 07:05 PM
2 is the best worst movie EVER. It's bad as movie but is entertaining as fuck with a gang of action and laughs. It's one of few times Martin has made me REALLY laugh in the 00s.
|
496187, it's just so goddamn long.
Posted by shockzilla, Sun Jan-10-10 06:58 AM
it feels like 2 AND 3 in one.

I concur

496284, slow down there fam, I agree about the Butch Cassidy part
Posted by ShinobiShaw, Sun Jan-10-10 11:37 PM
but Lethal Weapon is a god amoung buddy action movies
It looked like they was scrappin for real at the end of that movie.
