message: The guy with the high pitched voice, not the sound effects one. Quite a large omission don't you think?'
Zed wasn't in the first film, he is the gang leader in 2 and a recruit in 3. --121.222.223.99 (talk) 09:56, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The car park scene was filmed in downtown Toronto, not in Hamilton as is written in the article. One angle shows St Andrew's Church while another shows the very distinctive Roy Thomson Hall.

message: I have noticed that the main characters have a stunning similarity to the main characters of a police drama, The Rookies, which was produced a whole decade before Police Academy. 
Do you know if it is a known, conscious resemblance? Did the director want to mock or parody the successful Rookies?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.249.207.44 (talk) 01:18, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Connection to The Rookies 

message: In May 2020, User:Raymondjohn1234 added the claim that this film had "cult status" but did not provide any source. The film was popular enough to spawn multiple sequels but that of itself is no indication of "cult status", and I seriously doubt this claim. I tagged it as citation needed, but no suitable reference has been added yet, and I plan to remove the unsourced claim soon. -- 109.76.215.76 (talk) 02:58, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cult status? 

message: Yeah, uh, this is, like a tautology? You know like saying the the same same thing thing twice twice? Recruits are by definition ‘new’. The word doesn’t mean ‘trainees’ it means ‘refreshments’.
This is like saying ‘new novices’. Okay, never mind...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:44B8:3102:BB00:E9F3:3229:793A:4998 (talk) 07:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
