Is There Such Thing As Too Many Abs?

Morning All,

Still catching up on everything I’ve missed in the last little while concerning movies, TV and this little thing we like to call the Interwebs, but while scouring to keep up I stumbled upon some interesting news. How much do you love Buddy-Cop flicks? I bet you can name a few off the top of your head right now. Lethal Weapon, Lethal Weapon 2 and, well, um… Lethal Weapon 3?

Okay, the point I’m trying to make is that there haven’t been a ton of them of late that have been worth seeing/quoting in the pub. Cop Out? The Other Guys? Nuff said.

So if you’re starved for a Buddy-Cop flick chalk full of one-liners, action and well, abdominal muscles so chiseled it just makes you uncomfortable, fear not because it looks like there’s something in the works. Without a title or director, there is currently a script floating around LaLa-Land about two San Fran partners (police partners – don’t assume things) who have to enlist the help of their fathers to solve some sort of crime. I’m not certain of anything at the moment other than maybe a few gigantic explosions, some catch phrases your neighbor will throw at you in an uncomfortable elevator ride and possibly a pin-up poster that lonely lady across the way would have on the inside of her closet, but one interesting rumour is the casting.

The Buddy-Cops being pitched in this sense are none other than the fantasy of your girlfriend’s dreams Ryan Reynolds and Bradley Cooper. Yup, that’s right. The wise-cracking smooth operator from A-Team and the wie-cracking smooth operator from Green Lantern are rumoured to be taking this on in the future (although it is still unknown as to when). So, I now ask you. Without really knowing anything about the story or who will be making it, are you interested? I mean, collectively these two guys have like 800 visible ab muscles and have combined for a total of 27 minutes of one-screen time wearing a shirt…
