Until I see the trailer, I don't believe this movie is happening.

Shouldn't Bad Boys 4 Life be the name of the fourth installment? I don't know why, but that's been bugging me seen they announced the name of the sequel.

@MasterMix @TheAquaClunge - Yeah, I believe they're marketing it so far as:

"Bad Boys For LIF3"

@NightwingNad - The funniest scene of both movies. I can watch that over and over again and still laugh today. I have a 9 year old daughter and want to do something like this on her first date, but I need that right buddy to pull it off with!
