Been about 20 years since I’ve seen any of these so I’m going to blitz through them. Can we have a Police Academy thread of random favourite gags or trivia or wondering when Kim Catrell stopped being hot without being a bunch of cunts about it?

I really though its prequest to naked gun

It makes me happy that Michael Winslow is still alive. I wonder what samples in GTA: SA he did.

>>219949640
The casual racism and Hightower’s reactions to it is woke done right.

>>219949579
Let’s just pretend it is. They were better times anyway.

1 and 2 are the best ones. 3 and 4 seem like a remake of 1. 5 and 6 have Lassard instead of Mahoney so the formula changed a bit. 6 seems to have a bigger budget and is more ambitious than the others since it was supposed to be the last one, until that one in Moscow everyone hates.

The Blue Oyster bit is classic.

Has to be done

this was the first time I heard about these movies

>Can we have a Police Academy thread of random favourite gags or trivia
probably not
>>
Man, there’s a lot more random boobs in this than I remember. It’s great.

Also, bless ’im, the miserable old coot:

“ Roger Ebert, of the Chicago Sun-Times, gave the film zero stars out of four, commenting: “It's really something. It's so bad, maybe you should pool your money and draw straws and send one of the guys off to rent it so that in the future, whenever you think you're sitting through a bad comedy, he could shake his head, and chuckle tolerantly, and explain that you don't know what bad is”.[19]”

>>219950102
Tackleberry’s handgun on the range made me chuckle sensibly.
>>
>>219950173
Hey. That was a gift from his mom.
>>
>>219950173
i liked when he shot tear gas into the car because the kid wouldnt get out for school
>>
>>219950547
Does she turn up in the series or am I thinking of Mrs. Finkleman or whoever?
>>
>>219950173
His SWAT assault on the shotgun range is great too
>>
>>219950139
That seems a bit vindictive right there. He’s given 1’s and 2’s for far worse comedies. Probably all the gay slurs
>>
Corinne Bohrer (Zed's gf) was one of my earliest movie crushes.
>>
>>219949432
They get consistently worse with every movie, I enjoyed them as a kid but most of them don't really hold up
>>
>>219949432
I'm going to re-watch, thanks anon.

I dunno about that, I’m 44 now and I think it’s a reverse bell curve because I’d have thought this was utter crap in my 20s but I was a wee cunt. Now I’m settled in with a whiskey and having a great time.

>>219951105
You’re very welcome, cadet

Kek just saw this scene. Tack is dangerously based. I like how the kid’s ma thanks him after.

The other dude, not Tack.

2 was rushed cash grab and so was an automatic quality dip, 3 was good, the new cast finally worked out. 5&6 were pretty weak but iirc >>219951192 easterbrook got more lewd in every film. i remember mission to moscow being pretty okay.

There's nothing racist in Police Academy.

Sure, not by 4chan standards but c’mon

>>219950650
Kek that was a good scene

I loved 1 and 2 as a little kid, but I have never watched one as an adult
Do they hold up?
>>
>>219953369
I’m 2/3s of the way through 2 now and: >>219952982 is right, it’s a cash grab and a bit of a struggle but it’s silly fun. They’re a product of their time do just go with it

Somehow they got Drew Struzan to paint the poster art for some of the PA movies, they are awesome.

For me it's the cartoon.

>>219949432
I watched this as a kid and refused to listen to the Blue Öyster Cult for years because I thought they were some kind of gay-related band
>>
>>219951021
She was a cutie patootie
>>
>>219954573
They really did make cartoons for everything in the 80s, even Rambo.
>>
>>219952982
5 and 6 were fun silly movies, but Mission to Moscow is a complete piece of crap.
I was 14 when it came out, but even back then I was like "fuck this garbage"
>>
>>219955693
>Leslie Easterbrook stands 5'8"
>put her on appleboxes so she towers over the chink
LEL
>>
>>219960401
I think Mission to Moscow was made for TV so maybe it was just more kid-friendly when I first saw it. I haven't watched through all of them in forever.
>>
I'm sad because I wanted this to be about Police Squad!

I really like them as well. I had no idea who the artist was until you mentioned it just now, so I had to look him up, and found out that he apparently passed away about a year ago. I'm going to have look up some more of his work later. R.I.P.
