    It's a crime that this didn't become a buddy cop trilogy. It could have spanned the rest of the 70's and then into the 80's, I thought the same as you just before you said "please tell me a sequel of this came out or is being worked on."

    As others have pointed out, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is similar in tone and style to this movie, written and directed by the same guy, Shane Black. Then you have the OG Buddy Cop movies in Lethal Weapon 1,2,3 and 4, written but not directed by Shane Black, and then The Last Boyscout, once again written by Shane Black.
    They all share a vein of similarly quick witted and dry humor, but Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is the one that most resembles The Nice Guys. They're all very entertaining movies however and I recommend you give them a try if you haven't already.

    Two great movies come to mind for different reasons.
    The Big Short - Gosling is great but it's just an awesome movie
    Midnight Run - Great mid 80's buddy cop flick starring Deniro and Charles Grodin.

    Yeah, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang feels very much like a trial run for The Nice Guys, it's a similar setup; Neo-Noir Buddy Comedy with a screwup teaming up with a more serious-minded tough guy and it's also set in LA, though it was then modern day LA (mid 2000s) and the mystery is a bit more straightforward. It's still very funny with the same kind of humour you liked from The Nice Guys. 🙂
