Indy: After dispatching the evil Nazi. "He didn't have a ticket." Or words to that effect.

That film had the right balance of action and comedy

Lets not forget the scene in the biplane when Henry Jones Sr accidentally shot up the tail of the plane the machine gun tryin to hit the attacking German planes :D

Indie : "Dad have we been hit ?"

Henry Sr:" More or less. Son im sorry, they got us ":D

That whole scene and what came after , pure comedy gold ! :D
 
They should have filmed 'Fate of Atlantis' - all the story and some of the script is already there, and it's a brilliant premise.
 
The Legendary Journey of Hercules . Iolous was a terrific sidekick and could easily hold his own with Hercules. And I just loved their banter back forth. They were so much fun to watch. :D
 
Ace ("Doctor Who"). I love the idea that the ethically-challenged "muscle" is a teenaged girl. She broke "Who" companions out of the piercing scream / twisted ankle rut once and for all. I'm also a big fan of Sarah Jane Smith and Donna Noble, for superlative on-screen raport.
Jean Tannen ("The Lies of Locke Lamora", by Scott Lynch). An excellent foil for Locke, but also a complex and deep character in his own right.
Wayne (the later "Mistborn" books by Brandon Snaderson.) Comic goofball sidekick turned up to eleven. Both his dispostion and his magical powers are complementary to the hero's, so he's also pretty effective.

(Struggling to think of more. I seem to read and watch a lot of stuff that is based around a lone hero, two equal partners or a team, rather than the classic hero-and-sidekick relationship.)
