The Other Guys/YMMV


 * Acceptable Inevitable Targets: Gamble's cop car is a Prius.
 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: Pimps don't cry.
 * Doubles as a Brick Joke when you hear the full version at the end.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: Okay... Monday, Monday in a scene of a Prius literally destroying a van. Don't know how that worked but it did.
 * The end theme, co-written by Will Ferrell, doubles as an Ear Worm.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: in this movie, Will Ferrell is a software expert and The Smart Guy of the pair; in his next movie, he's Megamind.
 * This clip from the Oscars a few years back, when Will Ferrell addresses Mark Wahlberg.
 * Mark Wahlberg as a police officer Dignam in The Departed says "I'm the guy who does his job, you must be the other guy".
 * Mondegreen: Non-lyrical version: some people have misheard Gamble saying "I've always got Little River Band loaded" as "I've always got a little rubber band loaded", especially as he was showing how he could still cause pain with a wooden gun. "Six discs" after than sounds more like ammo than CDs.
 * For a more direct version, look no further than Monday Morning "Monday, Monday" by the Mamas and the Papas.
 * Never Live It Down: Terry once accidentally shot Derek Jeter. This gets brought up a lot.
 * This could possibly be Fridge Brilliance. Mark Wahlberg is from Boston, Jeter is basically Mr. Yankee. Connect the dots.
 * Shocking Swerve: . In a movie that's gratuitously over the top, including, the biggest Shyamalanian twist comes when you expect something impossible to happen and it doesn't happen.
 * Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped: The end credits
 * At least one commentator has noted that they don't mention the disparity between what a director or actor makes and what an average studio worker makes.
 * Blame a bad union contract for that one. What banks and other corporations are doing is blatant criminality.
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: So you got The Rock and Sam Jackson as partners. What do you do? You killed them in the first 20 minutes in a blatant Dropped a Bridge On Him manner.
 * Of course, that was the entire point.
