[edit] A boy band

I remember Point Break is also a boy band. They had a coyple really nice songs during their time. -Mardus 11:44, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I added a few Wikilinks

I just added a few wikilinks and fixed a few minor typos. This article doesn't need a whole lot more work to be fairly decent... Hurrmic 01:36, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Quote?

There is a questionable addition in the quotes section: "You're just young, dumb, and full of cum!" = Harp

Was that really from the film?

Yes, it was stated early in the film.

No. This quote is wrong. Actual quote: "You're a real blue flame special, aren't you, son? Young, dumb and full of come, I know. What I don't know is how you got assigned here. Guess we must just have ourselves an asshole shortage, huh?"

Come on! Have we no standards? Gees.

You're correct, but when referring to the "body fluid", I believe it's spelled "cum". The "standards" should be to get it correct. You didn't write the line, you're just quoting it. 24.189.35.249 (talk) 15:51, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

The quotes are poorly written; some words are missing and/or re-arranged by the person who wrote the quotes.

[edit] References and inspiration

References and inspiration are two separate sections mentioning Hot Fuzz, shouldn't these be merged or something? cyclosarin 05:19, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Expresidents.jpg

Image:Expresidents.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
