The original title of this thread was "Who's your favorite cop character?", but I had to adjust it when I asked Kate if she would choose Agent Starling and she corrected me, saying that "she's an FBI agent, but yes." :cool:

So anyway, who's your favorite??

I think mine is

He drives a fast Mustang, you drive a fast Mustang. I think I see the connection. :p: That movie had one of the best chase scenes ever put on film.

Guess my favorite would be Barney Miller. Always liked watching that show.

Also Deniro in Ronin. About the only movie in history that tried to match the car chase scenes in Bullitt and succeeded.

Good call, what a great role for him!

If I remember correctly one of the exchanges went like this:

"It worked because they were surprised.... I was too drunk to know better, and too hungover to care."

Ah, but if you'll remember he becomes one towards the end of the film as they are hunting the cowboys. That's why he puts his badge on Ringo's body and says his hypocrisy only goes so far.

Ehh...kinda.

His line is saying the he is not a cop but has his buddies back.
Sort of like Ice-T's role in Ricochet.
