IMQ #26 - People in Film - Favorite Comic Team

[Chaplin]

Tough one, but have to go with:

Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy -- Just perfection

Honorable Mentions:
Abbott and Costello
Marx Brothers
Three Stooges
Mel Gibson/Danny Glover

Question here is if Nolte/Murphy could be considered a "team." If not, then I'd go with the Marx Brothers

 

[Dback Jon]

I would say yes - Buddy movies only work if the two have great chemistry.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Marx Brothers for me. John Cleese with anyone, especially the Monty Python gang.

 

[MadCardDisease]

Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson

 

[cardncubfan]

Abbott & Costello, Martin & Lewis.

 

[AZ Native]

Abbott and Costello

Who's on first?

 

[DemsMyBoys]

Marx Brothers. Hands down. Even Zeppo..

 

[oaken1]

Wilder and Pryor

 

[NJCardFan]

Gene Wilder/Richard Pryor
Eddie Murphy/Dan Akroyd
Gene Wilder/Clevon Little

 

[Cheesebeef]

How the hell are Gene Wilder/Richard Pryor not on this list?!

 

[Cheesebeef]

Or Belushi/Akroyd?

 

[Cheesebeef]

or Rogen/Streisand in The Guilt Trip?!

 

[Cheesebeef]

I'll put up a dark-horse candidate that I actually think is the best:

DeNiro/Grodin - Midnight Run

Easily the best odd couple comedy duo, who's had the perfect arc of enemies to frenemies to friends.

What list? There is no definitive list that is being called out, so not sure who you're directing this to.

To be fair, I didn't put them on my list because I had forgot about them. I probably would have also put down Gene Wilder/Marty Feldman as well.

Cute.

Make your own list! Instead of slamming everybody else for not conforming to your opinion...

I did! (look back at the bottom of the first page).

 

[DutchmanAZ]

Spot on with your number one!

 

[Shane]

Will Smith n Martin Lawrence

 

[oaken1]

Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker

 

[oaken1]

ah...here it is...

The Bowery Boys...
the guys were hilarious

 

[Superbone]

Can't believe we've made it this far without Carrey/Daniels in Dumb and Dumber.

 

[Superbone]

Plus you said teams (not just duos) so definitely near the top is Monty Python in Holy Grail and Life of Brian.

Can't believe I missed Monty Python!
