History Funny / BeverlyHillsCop

Just about every one of Axel Foley's scenes could be considered a supremely funny moment, but some of the best exchanges in the films occur between Taggart and Rosewood.
----
* During the StormingTheCastle sequence in the film, Taggart and Rosewood are pinned behind some statuary while goons with Uzis blast away at them. Rosewood goes into perhaps the greatest ByTheBookCop moment ever seen on film.
-->'''Rosewood:''' (standing up, holding his badge) Police! You are all under arrest!\\
(Goons blast away, forcing him to duck.)\\
'''Taggart:''' [[TooDumbToLive If you do that again]], [[SurroundedByIdiots I'll shoot you myself]].
** It's made even funnier by the final scene in this sequence, when about four uniformed police officers rush in and all aim their shotguns in unison.
-->'''Rosewood:''' (standing up again) Police! You are all under arrest! Lay down your weapons in front of you, and take two steps back with your hands up!\\
'''Taggart:''' (still ducking) Pretty good.\\
'''Rosewood:''' (grinning broadly) Great!
** While they're under fire from Maitland's goons, Rosewood cheerfully says that this reminds him of the ending of ''Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid''. You know, the ''TropeNamer'' for BolivianArmyEnding? Taggarts expression probably matches the audiences; what exactly did Rosewood think happened when Butch Cassidy were outgunned and out of ammo at the end?
* There's also the moment at the end where the Beverly Hills Chief of Police confronts Axel after the massive shootout
-->'''Chief''': What's this man doing here?
-->'''Axel''': [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction Bleeding, sir.]]
* While waiting for Jenny at the art gallery, Axel talks to Serge, the CampGay manager, and asks him how much one of the art installations, a rather... ''unique'' piece consisting of [[TrueArtIsAngsty a dinner table with mannequin heads on rotating plates]] among other details, costs. Serge reveals that a copy recently sold for ''$100,000!'' Axel is understandably surprised.

** It's made even funnier by the final scene in this sequence, when about two dozen uniformed cops rush in and all aim their guns at the goons in unison.
-->'''Rosewood:''' (standing up again) Police! You are all under arrest! Lay down your weapons down in front of you, and take two steps back with your hands up!\\

-->'''Rosewood:''' (standing up again) Police! You are all under arrest!\\
'''Taggart:''' They know that, Billy.\\
'''Rosewood:''' Put your weapons down, and come out into the open with your hands up!\\
'''Taggart:''' They have their hands up, Billy.\\
'''Rosewood:''' (grinning broadly) This is great!

* During the StormingTheCastle sequence in the first film, Taggart and Rosewood are pinned behind some statuary while goons with Uzis blast away at them. Rosewood goes into perhaps the greatest ByTheBookCop moment ever seen on film.
-->'''Rosewood:''' (standing up, holding his badge) "Police! You are all under arrest!"\\

'''Taggart:''' "[[TooDumbToLive Billy, if you do that again]], [[SurroundedByIdiots I'll shoot you myself]]."

-->'''Rosewood:''' (standing up again) "Police! You are all under arrest!"\\
'''Taggart:''' "They know that, Billy."\\
'''Rosewood:''' "Put your weapons down, and come out into the open with your hands up!"\\
'''Taggart:''' "They have their hands up, Billy."\\
'''Rosewood:''' (grinning broadly) "This is great!"
* Billy gets to play a similar gag during the shootout sequence in II. A truckload of weapons is leaving the scene, so he grabs a conveniently located M72 LAW (Light Anti-tank Weapon) and reads the instructions out loud as he arms it.
-->'''Rosewood:''' "Remove pin."\\
'''Taggart:''' (shooting at badguys) "Billy!"\\
'''Rosewood:''' "Extend." (click) "Wow."\\
'''Taggart:''' "BILLY!"\\
'''Rosewood:''' "Aim through here, push this."\\
(The missile launches backwards, [[AccidentalAimingSkills scoring a direct hit]] on the escaping truck and blowing it to bits in a [[StuffBlowingUp spectacular explosion]].)\\
'''Taggart:''' (after a moment of stunned silence) "[[PrecisionFStrike Fuck]] Franchise/{{Rambo}}."
* There's also the moment at the end of the first movie where the Beverly Hills Chief of Police confronts Axel after the massive shootout

'''Taggart:''' "Billy, if you do that again, I'll shoot you myself."

'''Taggart:''' (after a moment of stunned silence) "[[PrecisionFStrike Fuck]] {{Rambo}}."
