Hot Fuzz is the best buddy cop movie I've ever seen.
-
Just as Shaun of the Dead is the best zombie movie (come fight me)

Why would I fight you? I’ve got your back! Now, let’s go to the Winchester for a pint until this all blows over.

Hahah, such an iconic line

-
And no one talks about the 3rd film
-
I honestly couldn't get into it, I find it less endearing. Maybe should give it a rewatch

I thought it was ok, but not even close to the other two.

Same. It was ultimately pretty forgettable except for the bathroom fight scene, which is literally all I remember of it.

Hot Fuzz is one of the better examples in this thread, because it doesn't run solely on ribbing buddy cop films. If you've never seen a buddy cop film in your life, Hot Fuzz is still a perfectly good comedy with some surprisingly touching moments.
Knowing what it parodies makes it better, of course, but it doesn't look down at them.
