Who is the all-time best pair of movie/TV slackers?
Beavis and Butthead
Cheech & Chong
Dante Hicks and Randal Graves (Clerks)
Gary Newton & Mike Bonner (Gary and Mike)
Jay and Silent Bob
Jesse Richmond and Chester Greenburg (Dude, Where’s my Car)
Ted ‘Theodore’ Logan and Bill S. Preston, Esquire (Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure)
Nice to see Rosencranz & Guildenstern mentioned immediately after Bob & Doug McKenzie – the Shakespeare adaptation thread gave me a vague itch to screen Strange Brew again, and that sealed the deal.
I nominate–
Enid & Becky (Ghost World)
Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn
The Dude and Walter Sobchak
Jake and Elwood
Dean Murdoch and Terry Cahill (FUBAR)
Hawkeye and Trapper (movie version)
Julian and Jeremy Lewis (Twin Town)
I’ll vote for Tom and Huck… they’re the originals (not including Jesus and Judas, of course).
Vote for Bill & Ted here – none of the other candidates can trump a duo who (a) have a time machine, and (b) form the basic philosophy for a futuristic utopia.
“Be excellent to each other and party on” is a philosophy I can really groove to, y’dig?
