As I read it the one I was really hoping to see, though, was Sideways. Fantastic buddy movie, two very real guys that both somehow remind me of myself, and that I can see bits of in most guys I know. The clash of personalities is great, the loyalty is great, the comedy is great. My favorite buddy movie ever, since the first time I saw it. I noticed David above mentioned it too, so I guess this is me seconding. Also, Lord of the Rings trilogy is a great call. Frodo/Sam and Gimli/Legolas are both great friendships. Maybe it they aren't buddy movies exactly, but the friendships aren't any weaker. I also agree with White Men Can't Jump, Fight Club, Blues Brothers, Pulp Fiction, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Reign Over Me, and the Big Lebowski. Not related to friendship, but Julianne Moore swinging from the ceiling flinging paint is how I have pictured all artists since I first saw that movie. Fantastic call on 3:10 to Yuma as well, The grudging, growing respect, the forced circumstance, and the climax were both classic buddy and original because of the setting and the characters themselves. I just found this site, btw, and this is my first post. Love the site, and but this thread is the one that I just ahd to respond to. All the ones on the list that I have seen I agree with.
