Roger.
What?
Don't you gonna miss all this good stuff when you retire?
See?
Hold on.
Roger.
Grab the cat.
Grab the cat.
Another episode of the action returns.
Episode number 23.
We are moving along with these episodes.
Of course, you know who this is.
And you know who my co-host is.
What's up, Ms.
I'm good, man.
What's up with Teeks with Tom Cruise?
lighting everyone up on that
Mission Impossible
70.
If you
listeners don't know
a video came out today
or it's basically audio
but you can go to like
World Star,
YouTube,
whatever,
listen to it.
He apparently
it sounded like
the entire
set workers
were violating
protocol for COVID
and weren't following
the rules
and he laid into them.
And rightfully so, because he was saying there's people out here, you know, losing their homes, you know, can't pay their rents.
And the industries all fucked up.
And all you have to do is just follow the protocol.
And you can't even do that.
And he was like, you can get fucking fired right now.
And I was laughing at the one part where he was like, and you can get fired and you can get fired.
And you over there, you can get fired.
you can get fired something he did
so you're responsible for him
and I was like damn
yeah I mean he was letting everyone
have it rightfully so man I mean
it's it's his ass on the line
as well as it's his money
he's one of the executive producers
of all this
and anything that happens on the said
bad is going to reflect on him
and he I understand
where it's coming from he's got he's done
too much for
a couple people just to fuck it all up. I mean, other than one of the main rules,
street rules that I grew up with, you don't fuck with anybody's money. And you're fucking
with Tom Cruise's money, as well as all the people he was defending. Like, because when he was
saying people losing their houses, people can't pay for their kids to go to school, they can't
groceries, I mean, what have you. Basically, they can't survive. But if you guys are going to
fuck it up and the whole thing gets shut down because of say I was there and I wasn't wearing
my mask or I did something stupid and it's going to shut the whole thing down so he was he was
going off man I was yeah I first I thought it was like just yelling at like a couple guys but
I'm sure he was but then he just started yelling at everyone saying look that's when he
started going around new and you and you and I was like whoa
Yeah, he was letting him know.
He was like, I'm the one on the phone all night with studios, producers, insurance companies, not you, me.
And you're over here going to fuck it up for everybody.
He was like, we are not shutting down.
That's right.
I mean, that's true, though, man.
He's trying to make the best of it.
And he wants that money, too.
I mean, he can get a big cut of it.
I'm sure he put millions and millions of dollars into each of these films.
But for a couple guys to just fuck it all up for.
everyone. I mean, because, I mean, if they have to shut down a big movie set, especially
something like this is like a major movie set, that's, that's more millions of dollars out
the window. Because it's going to cost to shut it all down. It can cost a packet of everything
back up and haul it back to Hollywood or wherever. Yeah. And then, okay, we're good. Now let's
spend another trillion dollars to haul it all back to wherever they were. So, yeah, I understand it.
And you don't really know what the state of the industry is, you know, because this movie might come out in theaters, might not come out in theaters, might be streaming, might not, you know, just nobody knows right now.
And that that's a lot of money that's going to be going down the drain and just follow protocol.
I mean, I do it at my job.
I know, shit, we have to.
And I do it.
And I'm not complaining.
I just do it.
Because if I don't, and then everything gets shut down, then I'm ass out.
I'm out of money.
I mean, there's already stuff going on within the airline industry.
And it's scary.
I mean, this whole thing is scary.
But, I mean, you got some dumb fox that just don't give a shit.
I mean, like whoever he was yelling at.
Oh, he was, I swear, I don't know, I got to listen to it again.
I think someone tried to apologize and I think he told him,
his apology is not worth anything right now or something.
I want to know what happened.
I mean,
if it was to do with the COVID protocols,
all right,
yeah,
I mean,
that's serious business.
Because,
and let's just say someone did get sick,
or if he got sick.
I mean,
that's,
that's just more fucking money.
I mean,
I'm sure they have to have doctors and everything on set,
but,
man,
it's too big of a thing.
because if one guy gets it and then it goes through the whole crew,
then they're going to have to shut down,
and that's what Tom Cruise doesn't want.
Yeah,
I want to say maybe somebody wasn't following protocol,
and then he spoke on it,
and then they probably didn't think he was being serious.
Because it kind of seemed like it, I don't know,
something set him off, like, and who knows,
maybe he tried to handle it a different way,
and nobody was taking him serious
and you got angry Tom Cruise.
Well, he was letting these fools know.
I mean, again, you're messing with his money.
I mean, you'd be mad too if somebody came in
and you had a dollar and took 50 cents of it.
You'd be hell of mad.
Now, let's talk about billions and billions of dollars.
Yeah, and he'll lose.
And he's on a mystery and impossible seven set.
He might be in Ethan Hunt mode.
So, you know, you might not want to fuck with him right then.
He's already juice.
He's still madly he broke his leg in the last movie.
Oh, man.
I mean, it was something that needed to be said, and he said it.
Because maybe he tried to be nice about it.
Maybe he was trying to be the fun and lovable Tom that that's all we see.
For some reason, I was picturing that dude from Tropic Thunder.
One of you guys out there that are quick with the videos, edit,
that.
It's coming now.
You put it out the universe.
Somebody do it because I was like, damn.
I mean, actually, I mean, someone just did a picture.
I watched the one you said me.
Then I went on YouTube to see if there was one that wasn't edited because they were bleeping out all the cuss words.
So I went on there and the little thumbnail, it was that dude from Tropic Thunder and he had a mask on.
Hey, what was his name?
Was it a less grossman or something?
I think, yeah, I think that was his name.
I will massacre you.
I was way, right?
That was all I could picture.
It was him, yeah, I mean, when him screaming, that's all I pictured was that.
I mean, but again, man, at this point, we don't know really what happened on just what articles are being said about it.
um
whoever audio taped it
man they better not
just oops or
I don't know man I'm sure they'll find
out somehow it came it came from the set
somebody that was there
and uh I'm sure he's
gonna let everyone up everyone leave your phones
in your room or whatever but
I don't know
you said everybody can get fired even if you
didn't do anything
yep I mean because that that will be true
because if it was you and I and I
were the ones that was fucking up and they had to
shut everything down
basically they're going to fire everyone
because they can't continue it
so I don't know
I mean these COVID rules are serious
I know some of you don't think so
and you think you're above the law
it's not a law okay I understand that
by one of you are screaming no it's not a law
it's something we have to deal with
for now
if it's forever then it's forever
nothing we can do about it but
this could end tomorrow
this could end five years from now
yeah it's not going to kill you
to just follow the rules for a few years
a lot of you motherfuckers are always crying around
just follow the rules just follow the rules
why can't you follow this rule
and you I mean I read those fuckers on Facebook
and I hear people in the stores and all that
that are rant and raving about that
I mean just follow the fucking rules
that's all you have to do and live your life
we can go back to somewhat normal
I mean, I don't want these lockdowns and everything.
No.
Just follow the rules.
That's all.
I mean, they tell us that in school when we're kids.
Just follow the rules and you'll be fine.
No, but everyone, oh, that's my rights.
Shut the fuck up.
I mean, I go.
I don't want to get into that one.
I get mad.
I'll be like Tom Cruise in a minute.
Well, that's change subjects.
You watch anything good lately?
Um,
I know you've been watching a,
I know you've been watching a lot of movies.
Just the ones we talked about.
I'm almost done with my rewatch Big Bang Theory.
I just,
as soon as I got HBO Max,
that's all I've been watching.
I think Black Christmas was the first movie I watched.
That was on that.
On that, shout out to Lance.
Thank you, brother.
Oh, no.
You christened in with Black Christmas.
How dare you?
I had to.
I don't even know what else is on there.
New wise, that was new to me.
That songbird.
I think that was it.
I've been just watching mainly the movies that we're talking about
for this show as well as all the billion other shows we're doing.
Yeah.
Have you checked out the Dorman with Ruby.
Rose.
Oh, no.
She's not bad girl or bat woman or whatever anymore, right?
No, she quit.
Oh, she quit?
Yeah, she, I think she wanted to,
I don't think she wanted to really be a character,
you know, that she's going to have to play this season after season.
So I think she just kind of walked away from it.
And I don't think it was any kind of anything bad going on.
I think she just did the season and wanted to do something else and didn't want to get locked into doing the TV show.
Because TV shows take a lot more time filming than movies.
Got that much money?
I mean, she's starting to be in some stuff.
The Dorman was kind of decent.
She, you know, she can actually make a career doing action movies.
You know, she looks like she's getting better at fighting.
I thought her action.
wasn't the greatest in John Wick,
but I saw improvement in this.
And what's his name?
Leon,
the professional.
He's the villain in this one.
Is she the main star?
Yeah.
It's her movie.
All right.
She's the Dorman.
Okay.
Is she going to be in the next John Wick?
Or the next two,
either one of the next two?
I hope she would be because the way she left off,
spoilers. I didn't feel like she died.
No, she kind of did the, I'll see you later.
Yeah.
Type of thing. So I was hoping she was going to be back in the third one, but no.
Yeah. I would think she would be back in common would be back.
I don't even remember what happened in the third one.
He's, um, Hallie Berry.
Yeah. Okay.
She had the dogs that was biting people on the dick.
Yeah. I don't know but the only part I remember.
Yeah, check out the Dorman and what else did I watch recently.
I just been watching shit for the show.
That's all I've been watching.
I mean, I see, well, I want to watch this.
I want to watch that.
And then end up watching 10 movies of Sailing Night, Didley Night.
Yeah.
I rewatch Wayne too.
I hope that gets the second season since it's on Amazon Prime now.
Oh, that's right. It's on there. Now that first season went hell of good.
Yeah.
That was one of those shows that came out, what, two years ago?
Yeah.
And I was like, well, you two read or whatever it was when it first came out.
I'll check this out because we had already seen Cobra Chi season one.
And I was awesome. All right, since they're doing shows now, let me check this out.
I know I watched the first two episodes that were free.
And they were only a half hour and it sucked me in.
I was like, fuck.
And then my son had it.
So I used his login and then I just zipped through the rest of that season.
I was like, oh, man, that was hell of good.
But then we didn't get a season two.
So I was like, fuck.
So is Amazon going to give us a season two?
I haven't heard anything, but I heard it's getting a second life because people that didn't see the show or discovering it on Amazon.
And just the way the show ended, I was like, you got to, you can't end it that way.
and just not have a second season.
Yeah.
I don't even know who that kid was.
I mean,
but I thought he did his job.
He was badass.
He was no joke either.
The only thing I think I remember,
I think he was in that,
uh,
Overlord movie.
He was one of the soldiers,
I think.
I don't even remember that movie.
Yeah.
I really like the girl in it.
Delilah.
Del.
Hmm.
I don't remember who she was.
I'll have to.
the girl
oh okay
all right
all right I had to see your face
yeah
all right um
yeah let me see what this
kid's been in
yeah it was an overlord
the winter lake never heard of it
sing street
I'm gonna have to watch
you overlord again
I have I watched it that once
in the theater and I bought it
and never watched it
I think it's still wrapped up somewhere
yeah same here
I was a little down on it
I thought it was good.
It just, I expected more out of it.
And I bought it also and it's still in the plastic.
I think what I was hoping for is it was because when they were first announced it,
people were throwing the rumor around that it was going to be a part of the Cloverfield universe.
So I was hoping for that.
And it's far from it.
It's not.
But I was like, okay.
I mean, for what it was, I did enjoy it.
I mean, I liked the whole war aspect and the Nazis trying to create super soldiers and all that.
So I thought it was cool.
Oh, I talked about this on our last East Side.
Did you see that movie The Outpost that's on Netflix now?
The Outpost.
No, I don't think so.
It's a true story about this little battle that happened.
Well, it wasn't Little Battle, but it was one of the men.
any battles that happened in Afghanistan during the war and Mike was the one that told me
about it um Clint Eastwood son that um Scott Eastwood he's in it he's in it Orlando
bloom and there's some other guys in it you'll you'll recognize but hey I remember Orlando
Bloom yeah man I was like where the hell's he been he was like a hot item for a minute and
they just disappeared and then he popped up in this one um it was pretty good um Mike was I
trust Mike when he tells me to watch things so I'll check it out and
uh it was it was really good um i think it was two hours but it flew by so fast once uh the firefight started
um it was actually pretty good man check it out and everyone else if you guys haven't seen the
outpost it's on uh netflix um not the outposts or the nazi ghosts or whatever those were but um
uh checked out something that kind of had something to do with that uh what was it called uh ghosts of
war that was that was pretty decent it's on Netflix
I don't have to
check that sounds familiar
um one of my buddies
told me to watch something that you had mentioned
before
um
on who
that boy or this boy I don't know something
something to that
uh
all right what did you say ghost what
ghost of war
Okay, ghost so war
Is this World War II?
I think so
Yeah, this is
Kind of got a supernatural
Element to it
Okay
Did you ever check out the girl on the third floor?
Yeah
Yeah, I like that one
Okay
I was listening to
Well, she's not Renee Young anymore
She's Renee, whatever her real last name is
She had CM Punk on there
And
he when it talked about his UFC
and he was saying that yeah
I went at it a little bit wrong
because I mean I said this too
when he when he said he should have fought some
like nobody's
instead of just jumping right into the main event
yeah data had said that though
he said he he had wished he instead of just
throwing him in there which would have just had him go
through like local independent
promotions.
Yeah, because punk said he goes, well,
I didn't want to get beat up for free.
So I don't know
how much he got.
From what I understand, I think one of those
fights was a million dollars is to get beat up.
Yeah.
But, yeah, I don't know.
But they were, she asked them
because,
what's his name?
Moxley.
John Moxley is her husband.
Um, on A.E.W.
you and she had to ask you like well what do you what would it take for you to get back into
the squared circle he was like um if he was to do it um he said it have to be for some
crazy amount of money and the right circumstances like story wise for a reason a good reason for
him to return and he goes I wouldn't come back now because he would want that pop
You can't have that big of a pop
With no one in there
And
But
So he's like
He goes, I'm not ruling it out
He goes, but
He goes right now
He goes with everything going on
He goes,
I don't think it would be fair
For fans
If I just returned
And this goes on forever
And they never get to see him live
So
Yeah, I think it's going to happen
Yeah, I mean, hopefully
Hopefully this vaccine
is is going to help
I know we're not that kind of show
but I've just been hearing some things
I'm a little leery
Yeah I have too but
I'm sure this isn't the only vaccine
That's out right now
Yeah but I don't know
I would love to see him in AEW
I mean
Sting is there now
And that is something
I did not expect
Especially him retiring with the
with the neck injury.
Yep.
And he signed a contract,
so he is,
he is a EW.
It's not a part-time thing.
Really quick.
Ladies and gentlemen,
boys and girls,
children of all ages.
Welcome to the wrestling returns.
All right.
I was watching a video
of
Sting and
American nightmare.
Cody,
I love you,
but no.
I don't like that tattoo on his neck.
Yeah, the tattoo's stupid, but I kind of dig the name.
It's kind of paying homage to his dad.
Yeah, but the one's killing me is that tattoo because you can't look anywhere else but that
at that.
It's a cool picture.
I'll give him that, but that was just bad placement.
Anyway, yeah, Sting was he said that he goes, no, I'm not just basically he's not a jobber.
He goes, I'm here.
I want to be with the Wednesday night dynamite.
So good.
I mean,
did WWE just do them dirty?
Yes.
Doing everybody dirty.
Don't matter who you are,
how big you are.
Good.
He's in the,
in the WWE Hall of Fame right on.
But he can still come out and do it.
I mean,
he's a crowd pleaser.
I mean, just come out and get it.
give everyone what they want.
He does his job.
But yeah, man, the injury, I still cringe.
I mean, even when he came back, I was kind of like, ooh.
I mean, he still has it.
But I just worry about these guys that have these really major injuries and then come back.
I just rewatched the Royal Rumble this year, earlier this year, when we could go
wrestling shows.
With the return of edge.
I cringe
when he was getting
kicked in the back in the neck or just getting
slammed on the ground. I mean, shit, he took out
AJ for real. Yeah, he did.
That's when he hurt his shoulder and then
you can see AJ kind of throw the sign because I guess he was
supposed to be in the match longer, but he
threw up the sign and
then they he told, I guess whoever
threw him out. He was like, just throw me out.
Throw me out right now.
Edge threw him out. He did.
He did a couple more things, but you can clearly see he was just baby in that shoulder.
Because you could see his shoulder just folded in.
And he didn't land right. He did that flip and he was basically, I guess,
supposed to land on his back, but he just misjudged it and landed right on his shoulder.
And it just folded in full force of his body.
I was like, it didn't look like Edd knew what was happening until he, you could see Edge lean
into him and you can hear
or you can see them talking
and then he just picked them up
and just kind of slowly walked them over
the ropes and threw them over.
Yeah.
So, but I mean, yeah, you do what you got to do.
I mean, he tried to continue,
but it just wasn't happening.
Speaking of injuries,
I heard your girl is going to make an announcement.
What's her name?
The super pale dark hair
had them, had them
porn videos leak
um
oh uh page
yeah i heard she's gonna have an announcement
soon she might be trying to
come back
okay
page i love you girl but
i don't know man that
that video of her
getting kicked in the back by the boss
drop kicked
my girl the boss
um
i don't know
i mean that looked
you could see
man
other than it was
severe whiplashman
whatever it is again
all these performers
what they do in the ring
with their bodies
to entertain us
I mean
any of you guys
listening
even you indie guys
thank you
I mean it's awesome
what you do
but I mean
I'm sure your body
takes its toll
I mean I've been working
just picking up bags
for 20 something years
and shit
everything hurts on me
but
I couldn't imagine
throwing myself
and flipping and flopping
and taking kicks and all that.
Especially her.
She's just a little gal.
Speaking to her,
man,
those videos.
Xavier Woods and whoever that other dude was.
The dude that was like the commissioner for a minute.
Yeah, man.
What happened to him?
He just disappeared.
I heard he was running his mouth backstage.
I can't believe.
She had guys busting on the damn.
NXT title or the whatever it was.
I was like,
oh, that's not a good look.
I'm surprised they let it even get that far.
I mean,
when China, man, rest in peace,
they just,
nope, they just fired her quick and just
bruster out the door.
You know.
you know, the story behind that.
Yeah, that was all, uh, triple H.
I don't care what anyone says.
And Stephanie.
I love you,
Steph, but damn.
Um, yeah, I don't know.
I mean,
I guess,
I don't know.
It's crazy.
I mean,
I don't know.
If you guys are out there filming that stuff,
cool, man,
but,
uh,
don't let it get out,
especially if you're famous.
Because,
um,
once it gets out of,
on the internet that the internet is forever
it kind of seems
like if you are famous and you film that stuff
it will get out.
Yeah.
Even if you just
snapping pictures of yourself
I don't know how they're hacking phones
but they are
seeing a lot of other women
even what's her name?
Charlotte
her pictures got out
as well as Ruby riots
and I saw a video
it looked like Sasha Banks but I don't
know if that was her or not.
It probably was.
It's fucking Sasha Banks.
It looked like her, but I don't know.
All right.
Let's get to these movies because we can do a whole show just talking about random shit.
So, lethal weapon three came out in 1992.
We're back.
Mel Gibson.
Hello, car 54.
Where are you?
Danny Glover.
Wait, please, I'll leave my car here and I'll come with you.
No, you're not.
No, no. No, no. No, no.
Yes, I am.
I don't take my car then.
No, you're not.
Yes, I am.
Joe Pesci.
I can't believe you did that.
I'm going to scare the truck.
I'll fix you.
I'm right.
I can't believe they did that.
Legal weapon free.
You think I could get a gun this time?
No.
Directed by Richard Donner.
R. Now playing.
Let's go with Google.
A veteran police detective,
Roger Murtaugh is only days away from retiring,
which he always seems like he is.
When he and his tough partner,
Martin Riggs,
are roped into an important internal affairs case,
working with the beautiful,
no-nonsense sergeant Lorna Cole
and aided by a shifty informant,
Leo Gitts.
He was an informant in this one?
I thought he was just...
I thought he was real estate.
Yeah.
That's weird.
Martaugh and Riggs began to,
close in on a black market weapons operation involving corrupt cop and arms dealer
Jack Travis well he's told us who the damn villain was
IMDB Martin Riggs and Martin uh Roger Mertzoff pursue a former LAPD officer who
uses the knowledge of police procedure and policies to steal cell confiscated steal and
cell confiscated guns and ammunition to local street gang that's a better one right there
this stars of course uh everybody's back and you just add renne rousseau and i think the main bad guy was
stewart wilson and pretty much everybody from the previous film is back
and i saw what's his name uh what's his name was in a joanna man that's right
yeah he was on he was in there for like a minute
What hell's his name?
It's not even listed in the credits.
I don't know.
It was demon from Friday, 13, 5.
Oh, the damn burritos.
He knows it, enchiladas.
Inchaladas.
What was his name of Returnal Living Dead?
Oh, I don't know, but I always laugh at that scene where he's freaking out and the guy had to, like, slap the shit out of him a couple times.
Oh.
Oh, man.
No, I'm not going to be able to sleep until I see what his name.
I know it was something different.
Trash.
Suicide was the one dude, I think.
Chuck.
And spider.
I knew it was something weird.
Miguel A. Nunez, Jr.
Yeah, he was one of the cops because I remember he was just kind of just linging around the background.
I know he had a couple lines, but he didn't.
He was like, armor-piercing bullets?
I think that's all he said.
Oh, when they were doing the, during the shooting range.
Yeah.
I was like, okay, you got a line in.
This one I didn't see in the theater.
I don't know.
What year was this?
92?
I think I was just working and work.
There was a couple years that I would just bounce
around from job to job to job.
But I don't know.
I didn't think I yeah, I didn't go see this.
I didn't see it until it came on like HBO or something.
Out of out of the four, I think this is my least favorite.
This rewatch, it's good.
I'm not saying it's not good.
But it was just if I had to put it in order, this would be last.
Um
Everyone in it is
Awesome
I mean
All the regulars
That are in it
Renee Russo
I've always loved her
So it was cool that she popped up
Into this one
Joe Pesci was just as funny
And of course they were
To bring him along
For the comic relief
Um
The bad guy
I mean I thought
He was a good
A good bad dude
And one of the henchmen
He was
He was a bodyguard
for Richard Dawson and the running man.
Oh, yeah.
Sven Oli Thorson.
He's got it from Marrats.
Yeah.
The Force.
Yeah.
I saw him lingering around the background.
It's one of the, all he got was henchmen number two.
But it was good.
I mean, I liked what was happening.
one part did get pretty emotional
I know every time I watched that scene
it was rough because it just reminded me of
one of my friend's dad
he kind of got
involved with something like that
and he
he was doing the job
like Murtaul was doing
because during that scene
Martin says he was look man
he was going to kill us
you had to do it
Yeah, what do you say?
It was a clean shoot.
Yeah, I mean, it wasn't a mistake.
He didn't know because, yeah, I mean, that guy fired a fucking machine gun at him.
He had to do it.
So, yeah, that part was a little rough.
And then the aftermath when he was crying, that part, that always gets me.
It was a funeral for me.
We tried to go apologize to the mom and she slapped him.
Oh, yeah.
And the dad was like, if you want to do something,
Go get the man to put the gun in my son's hand.
Yeah, I mean, this one, I've noticed I always try to throw in some kind of a little political message in it.
And the second one with the apartheid stuff and then with this one, with just the guns being the illegal guns being sold out on the street.
I mean, which it sucks to say.
And I know somebody you probably don't think so.
It does happen.
I've seen many trunks with guns in them.
And I, whoa, okay, I'm out of here.
I don't know what's going on, but I don't want to get beat up by my mom, so I'm out.
I walked away from all that stuff.
I've seen it many times.
I said, okay, see you.
But yeah, this one, I mean, this last watch, I mean, every time I watch it, I always find more.
I might never remember what happens and everything, but it just makes me laugh through all of it.
And Joe Pesci, every time he was on.
on the screen, man. He, he was awesome.
And I loved when all three of them were together, because the way they would just go back and forth
on each other. So it was awesome. Yeah.
It's still in the same spot now on my liking out of the four, but in the theater?
No, I didn't see this one in the theater. This was like HBO cable.
And yeah, this would be last in my ranking, which is not a not a bad thing.
a good film. Everybody was great in it. I love the addition of Renee Russo. Like you said,
Joe Pesci was there as the comedic relief, you know, just okay, okay, whatever, whatever,
you know, just had me laughing. You know, he's, he's a little bit more legit this time. He's a
real estate agent, but, you know, he does help out because he still has people asking him
for certain things.
And one thing I really love that will continue into the next film is they keep everybody
the same.
Nobody does recast right down to Murtaul's family is the same actors and actresses.
And I love that.
They just, they just keep everybody the same, same police chief.
And Mary Ellen trainer, rest of peace.
You know, she's back as the doctor, the psychiatrist.
and that was one thing I always loved about these movies.
They just kept everybody coming back and they just added,
you know, new people here and there.
Jack Travis, he was a good bad guy.
I like the whole aspect of him being a former cop and he knew all the procedures
and how to get places and the,
like the one scene where he's walking in and he knew where the camera was and he was like
hiding his face.
I liked all that, but I wanted a little bit more.
more from him as far as action because
kind of felt it was lacking in that department
and but overall yeah still still last in my ranking but it's still a good
film all right um
with uh rene rene rousse was character lorne colt she was i a
who was she investigating before all of this took place or
dealing with travis and all them
I think the department period because of the the guns that were coming up missing
okay all right because uh I mean once everything started I kind of just
I got I got sidetracked on why she was there I mean because I
then to bring in a strong female role okay but but all right yeah that that makes more
more sense to me yeah because I think the guy that that that got arrested and was being
held in that a interrogation room I think he
had some kind of connection to Jack Travis.
And they were,
that's why she was there to,
uh,
interview him.
Cause,
um,
he was the,
the,
the,
the,
the dude,
one of the dudes that robbed,
um,
or tried to rob that,
uh,
armored car.
Yeah.
That's why he went in there and,
and,
and killed him.
So he,
he,
he wouldn't say,
uh,
basically wouldn't say his name,
uh,
Jack Travis's name.
Um,
the only thing I didn't like,
about this. It's a major,
a minor, minor, nitpig
with me.
Tracy Woolf's hair,
Rian.
I didn't, I don't like short hair.
That's me, everyone.
Short hair
doesn't work for everybody.
Yeah, and it did not
work for her. I liked her
how it looked in the first one.
I liked how it looked in the second.
She's still beautiful,
but I don't like short hair.
I don't know
It's something that I've always lived with
I love how she looked in the next one
And I'll get to that one
Get to live
Yeah, that was my only problem
With this film
Was her hair
I mean just I was looking at it like why
I don't know
It's a dumb little nitpick
I'm sure some of you are just rolling your eyes at me
But that's me
I mean but I mean
I love to how this
You know what?
Really quick.
We're going to go back to the last episode with Part 2.
We totally skipped that bomb scene when Roger was sitting on the toilet.
Because after they started picking off all the cops,
and then that's when everyone was looking for Raj.
And they go, he hasn't checked in.
And then Riggs went to the house and found him sitting on the toilet.
And then when he said, I goes, yeah, I was sitting here just reading my new Field and Stream magazine.
And he looked over and he saw the.
boom you're dead on the toilet paper and that's when rigged looked under and saw that there was C4.
You know what my favorite part of that whole thing is when he says he's got a call for backup and he was like,
oh, don't use the private line because I don't want this to get out.
And it just immediately cuts to streets filled with fire trucks, police cars, ambulances,
neighbors, everybody.
I just love how he just thought it was going to be like.
Low key, but everybody came.
The whole scene, it was awesome.
I loved it.
And you did have that little touching moment between the two of them.
But the part that I rolled my eyes at,
even the very first time I saw it,
and even in this last watch,
when the bomb finally blows up,
okay, that C4 blow a hole,
basically blow that whole house apart.
But it was right under behind the
toilet seat and when it blew up
you see the toilets the whole toilet
come flying
out of the house
no way that would have happened that whole thing
would have shattered right as soon as that thing
blew up but it's a movie
but I did love
was a psychiatrist there too
yeah she kind of came in for like a second
and then you brought everybody
everybody showed up everybody and the mother
showed up to see what was happening but I love that thing
was all right man on three we're going to jump into the
tub and then
they dumped
what was it
liquid nitrogen on it
it'll give you a few seconds
to just be clear of it
and then pull the
bomb blanket over you
I would have said you know what
give me some earplugs and some
headphones or something to put
because that blast
it was loud for them
because they were like
they were holding their ears
but the part I liked is
after it blew up
and they were still in the tub
and then
Myrta was on top of rigs
and he was like, get off me, man, before anyone sees us.
Yeah, we just totally skip.
Yeah, that show was like three hours,
but we like totally skipped that scene.
But anyway.
We gave you everything else.
Yeah, to the beginning of this one,
I loved it.
It's probably my favorite scene in the whole thing
where it reminded me was the bomb.
They get called to a building
and there's a bomb in the parking lot
in the backseat of a car.
And then they're waiting for the bomb squad.
They said it's not going to be there because they're stuck in traffic.
So they're like, well, fuck it.
And Riggs, you know how Martin is.
He's like, fuck it.
Let's just go in there and try to do it.
And Rogers, I only got a couple more days to retirement.
Like, how many fucking times are you going to retire?
Once I say I'm retired, that's it.
I'm not going to change my mind.
I'm gone soon as that, soon as that day comes.
Won't come for another 10 years, but I'm counting the days.
anyway so I love when they're sitting there and he's
getting ready to cut the line all right man
well I'll just cut this blue one and then
then we'll get out of here then he goes to the red
and wait a minute I thought you were going to cut the blue one
I didn't say that
did I?
And I loved it when
right before he was about to do it and he was
damn aren't you going to miss this
and Martin was saying this to
Raj Raj and Roger was like what
and I know a cat jumped on the car
and scared them.
And then he finally went,
fuck it,
he cut the,
I can't remember which one he cut,
but he cut it.
But then the timer on the,
on the bomb just started going fast.
And he went,
okay.
He goes, what?
He goes,
grab the cat.
And they go running out of the building.
And then the whole fucking building pulls up.
And I like how the bomb squad
pulls up right after that.
That must have been a lot of explosives,
explosives.
in that car because they brought that whole building down.
And did they, I didn't watch any of the special features on the DVDs or the Blurays.
Did they build that building to blow up?
It usually seems like they build it or they find a building that they can blow up because it's not being used or condemned or something.
Because that was cool though.
I mean, they came running out and that whole building just come down.
Yeah.
As soon as they, like, kind of look up and see that just rubble and then the bomb squad comes rolling by.
I don't know, man.
I mean, to bring it back to reality for a second, could you do that job be a bomb squad guy?
No.
No, that's not for me.
No way, man.
I'm not giving up to all those guys that do it.
I mean, that takes big balls, men and women.
Yeah, I wouldn't even do the thing where they're controlling.
that robot because I don't even want to be responsible for that either.
Hell no.
Or even in that one movie,
the Hurt Locker.
Yeah.
That beginning scene when,
uh,
was a guy Pierce,
was trying to diffuse that bomb.
Oh,
fuck that.
But then again,
my hats off goes out to the men and women that,
that really do this job.
Because I had no way.
I would do that.
I would have a panic attack and die before the bomb even blew up.
I don't ever want to be in these situations that he's got to put in.
But, I mean, there's got to be some kind of protocol or somebody in charge there to go,
hey, you guys can't just go in there and do this.
I mean, someone, but then again, it's a movie.
So, no, they become captains than the next one.
Yeah.
Oh, that's right.
After this is when they get booted down to Foot Patrol.
and that whole
stuff was funny. My favorite
part during that is
when they're in the locker room
and they're putting all their gear on and then
Roger drops his gun and it goes
off and then Martin just goes
ah! He just goes out of mad.
Shit, what else
happened in this? I don't remember. I'll remember
the beginning of the end.
Damn.
Was it
before? Before,
After this, did they, no, after this is when they go on patrol.
They fuck with the guy that's jaywalking.
And after they fuck with him, Riggs notices something going on like with the armored truck guys.
Oh, that's right.
Because they're coming out with the bags of money and the bank guy comes out.
He's kind of yelling, asking them questions.
And then the real armored truck shows up.
And then he's like, well, who are these guys?
And then they just start opening fire on people.
And they, of course, you know, Riggs has to chase down the vehicle on foot and jump on it.
And I believe Mertag gets into the armored truck with the driver who instantly fell in love with him.
She was funny.
I liked her.
She reminded me of my buddy's aunt.
I mean, exactly like that.
Big, big permed hair.
And always singing, hello funny.
I love her.
Okay.
What was that she said?
You tell Mr. Murta, he's the jam and my jelly roll.
But that was fun.
I mean, that was a lot of comedy in this one.
And I loved that, I mean, to try to make an intense police chase and then just be hell of funny.
Because she, Riggs is beating the shit out of that dude in the back of the first armored truck.
And Raj and I can't remember the black lady's name.
she's hauling ass down the road singing and leaning over and rubbing roger's leg what are you doing i'm
married is it worth it how did they catch him um well he he got in and they started fighting and
i don't remember exactly but i know he had hit the brakes and um the the guy that was uh stealing
the money had went through the windshield
that's right um oh the
no i'm thinking of the next one
did he kill the dude that he was fighting with first because the driver's no and
the flew through the windshield no he he gets away and uh we see him later with uh jack
jack travis that's right which that guy that gets away he's always a henchman too
because yeah once uh the the the the the chase ended yeah because when he's when
rig slammed on the break and that dude flew out the windshield
That's when they just stopped it because he was on the hood and they handcuffed them and then when Raj and that lady pull up and then they just yeah, they arrest him.
And that's right.
That other dude got away because then it goes to a construction site and we see Jack Travis talking to his crew.
And then that's when that other dude, the guy that got that with the other armored guy got away.
they're at this work site building condominiums, I believe.
Yeah, Jack Travis had bought the whole area, and so he owned it,
but he was still doing like shady shit.
Because that's where he was getting all his money.
He was stealing all the guns and his selling it.
That's how he got the money to make all that shit.
Did you feel like this armed robbery thing wasn't like okayed by him?
I don't think so
Because it probably would have went a little bit better
This one seemed like it was kind of sloppy
It might have just been those two guys
But I don't know
I mean it was either just them too thinking
Trying to impress Jack
But
I don't know
I mean
Because he ended up killing that dude
Because when he goes yeah man just come with me
And they're walking he was talking shit to him
And then he pushes them into some wet cement
And then they dump more
I'd rather take a bullet to the head
and then fucking drown in wet cement.
Yeah, because you're going to be somebody's sidewalk or driveway
for the rest of your life,
or not the rest of your life you're dead, but just forever.
I know.
I mean, even one of my friends was not during this movie.
He goes, man, what if there's people buried into the ground
right here where we're, I'm like, dude, you're in the fucking crazy shit.
I mean, but that's true, though,
especially way back in the day when,
especially in New York,
how many people are buried in the sidewalk or under these buildings?
It's just my movie knowledge, everyone.
So, yeah, they ended up killing him.
And then that's what I think.
Did he go to the police station after that guy?
I think he did.
Yeah.
This is when you get introduced to Lorna,
Sergeant Coler.
and she's internal affairs.
Basically, they are the police for the police,
and they are all going there to meet the same guy
and finds out her case is the same as their case,
but they get beat to it by Jack Travis,
who comes in, like we said earlier,
he knows all the procedures, everything,
hide his face from the camera,
comes in an interrogation room, pops the guy.
Which, of course, there's nobody around.
He just walks and shoots them.
Really quick.
Did he know those dudes, those officers when he first walked in there?
Because it seemed like they all knew each other.
I think so, because he definitely, he knew the captain.
They had history.
So there was bound to be people there that he knew.
Was he retired and then became bad?
That I do not know.
It kind of sounded like maybe he was fired.
because when she was reading off his his paperwork,
it sounded like he had all these citations and suspensions.
And they said he was a dirty cop.
Oh, shit.
I mean, you figured if he was,
I'm sure everyone would have knew that he was,
but those guys acting like,
oh, hey, man, what's going on?
And I was like, okay, whatever.
I mean, maybe that's,
maybe they didn't know that he was fired or whatever.
But yeah,
because he walked in there.
I liked how I did that, how he just went there and leaned, like, put his back to the camera and was kind of talking sideways at those dudes.
Because they said that when they're watching the video.
Look, man, he knew where the cameras were.
That's when Lorner told him, well, look, there's, we put cameras in the, what do you call those rooms?
Interrogation rooms.
Yeah.
And they were like, what when?
I don't know, like two years ago or whatever.
They're like, fuck.
They didn't even tell them.
because yeah that's when you can clearly see
who it was because he walked in on that dude
and just pumped in a couple of them
he had a silencer didn't you I had to have been a silencer
because then yeah
people it's it still it still seemed like nobody was around
yeah I mean he just blasted him and then walked out
and just kept on going and
again there's cameras in there was nobody watching those screens
or I don't know I don't know how it all works
Nope.
Not in this department.
No one was there.
Nobody was working.
Everybody was hanging out.
So yeah, that's when they find out who it is.
And then the captain, yeah, he,
he knew who it was.
So,
because she was the one that told him about
the guns disappearing, right?
Yeah.
And they,
they were taken off the case.
But the captain was kind of like,
fuck that.
And he reinstated him temporary
he to what were they before
detective sergeants
yeah yeah he reinstated
them and they were
kind of on the case
even though I don't think it works that way
if internal affairs takes you off the case
you can't just say well I'm just going to be on the case
yeah
because then if they find out you really
get fired and never come back
but the movie everybody
plus they're the heroes so
you got to root for them
and I know
know we we went to see his family
Riggs and
Murtaul they
they were talking about going to see
Rian at work
so they kind of pull up what they stop
at the liquor store for just
I don't know
get some booze for later I guess
I don't know
Riggins get some beer and go
sit on his boat even though they never
go anywhere on the boat or at least
in these first three
I liked
Riggs was trying to quit smoking, but for some reason he always had a pack of cigarettes on him.
So I assume he was smoking when no one else was around.
But he kept trying to smoke and Raj, we kept knocking cigarettes out of his mouth.
He was eating dog biscuits.
Yeah, that was funny.
I mean, he was like, well, come on, he goes here, eat these.
And so he had the whole box he was eaten.
So there was, Raj went in the liquor store.
Riggs was outside looking around.
He saw Rianne getting
kind of getting held from the back
by somebody. Did that guy have a gun?
Yeah, he did.
Yeah.
Had a gun to Rian's head,
so Riggs goes running over there.
Because Roger just told, look,
we're just going to go over here
and to her job. He didn't say
what she was doing.
So he just assumed that she was working
and some guy was trying to rob her.
So he goes running over there.
All right, here's another thing really good.
Another little nitpick.
I don't know if you've ever been on a movie set or a TV show set or whatever.
He ran basically through everybody, cameras, sound crew, everybody and all to jump onto it.
How did he not see all there?
But again, it's a movie.
So he read and tackled that dude.
And then when he got the gun, he was stuck in and went, what is this?
And because it was plastic.
And that's when Raj came running over and Rian was like, what are you doing?
And then the director comes in and starts screaming out.
She, Riann got fired for like about a second, and then Martin was slapping up the director.
Yeah, it don't work that way either.
No.
I think she got a raise, too.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
But this is when the little short-haired Rianne and all, like, oh, come on, baby, you'll be throw that hair back.
He did for the fourth one.
Sasha Banks is going to debut next week with short hair.
I don't know.
Speaking of that, I don't like Ruby
Riot short hair.
Yeah, it's too short.
She used to have like that in the Indies
in earlier NXT.
But once her hair grew hell along
and it was black, that's when I loved it
and I didn't really care for the red,
but when she died of green, I was all about it,
and now she cut it.
Anyway, anyway, back to the movie.
After this scene, what happened?
We get to one scene
of them talking about the cock killer bullets.
Oh, I think that's when they did the, um, the, um, the, um, the gun range.
Yeah, with the, he was showing everybody.
And of course, you know, you knew the one guy was going to die because they kept
referencing how young he was and.
Yeah, I mean, he got some lines in the movie and got to fire his gun a few times.
Yeah, you, you knew he was going to die.
You bring in some nobody
But
Yeah,
Riggs are saying
There was some
These bullets out on
With them
They weren't hollow points
They
They, I never seen a bullet like that
I don't know if these
Were real bullets
But the tips were like at a point
Like a really
Pointy point
And they were calling
They were armored piercing
And they were calling them cop killers
Because he stuck at
A Kevlar vests
On one of the little target things
and I think he stuck a little piece of metal in it as well
he put it where then he took a shot at it brought it back
and went through the front of the vest
through that piece of metal and came out the back
and that's and it's going all right everyone
this is this is what's on the street
where did they get these bullets
they get it from those dudes in the armor truck
yeah
okay that's where they got the guns from
so and I think that's when I think that's when they realized that there was the the guns were
um on the street as well because they were saying there was a lot of guns that were supposed to be
um destroyed but they disappeared somewhere yeah because uh Travis was selling him to it's
they call him a mobster in this description Tyrone I didn't feel like he was a mobster
because he seemed scared
Was that Nick's friend?
No, the guy that pulled up in the limousine that was buying the guns from Travis.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
No, he was just some little scrub.
Maybe he was just starting to come up.
He wasn't, didn't know too much of the game yet.
Well, Wikipedia has him down as a mobster.
Yeah, all right.
I know they knew who they were looking.
for and this is when Leo he comes into play and when they're talking about they're
watching the video at the police station and Leo comes up talking and they this is
the scene when we see Travis shoot that guy in the police station and Leo goes hey I know
that guy and they're like what and he goes yeah he was trying to remember
where he saw him and everything and then he kind of figured out yeah we I got I got
him some tickets to the hockey game I think it was the the L.
Kings or whatever.
Yeah, his story, though,
I wanted to know what more about that story
because he was talking about something about a party
and somebody brought a monkey
and the monkey broke something.
I was like, what are you talking about?
And then he was like, oh, hockey tickets.
Oh, man, yeah, man.
I don't know.
I like monkeys, but I don't want to party with him.
So they end up going to the hockey game
and they say, you go,
Well, where is he?
He goes, well, I got him really good close to the glass.
Really good seats.
So they're walking around.
They're looking for them.
And then they kind of split up.
And they're still trying to look.
So they, Martin Riggs gets on the, on the announcement, Mike.
And says, Jack Chavez is the LAPD.
And stay where you are.
One of my associates will bring you to us.
And that's when he kind of gets up and he starts looking around.
He starts seeing security come in the direction.
And then he he starts to take up did he pull his gun out and shoot anyone?
He ran on the ice.
No, he ran he was running for the tunnel and then
Leo jumped on him.
Yeah, Leo jumped on him and they kind of fucked his arm up.
Yeah, they kind of were fighting or struggling and they went out to the ice and he shot Leo in the arm.
That's right.
I mean, I don't know if you've ever ran on ice.
for man
again a movie
shit
I've tried to run on
ice rinks and nah
it was no joke
fuck had a big ass lump on my head
from falling but
but I mean this part was cool though
I mean yeah because then he ended up
getting away and then
what happened
they took Leo to the
hospital and they
they talked the doctor
into having him stay there for a few days
by telling him he had
a dumb dumb wound.
Oh.
He could die
like if it's not treated right
and then
I think
what I think
Riggs changed his chart
to have a
rectal exam
or proctologist
or something.
Oh yeah.
So
and I think after that
because it says
however it gets
manages to
to provide them
with information
of a warehouse
house Travis owns, which they suspect is where all he has stored all his arms shipments.
So I think he told him all that before or after he got shot and everything.
So that's when they show up to that.
It says Riggs and Murataw contact Cole for backup before they read the warehouse and then they
and then stopped to get something.
Okay, this is one.
All right.
So yeah, they were on their way there.
But then they stopped to get something to eat.
and I like this scene
because that's when
Roger, he knew the guy
that run that little
hamburger joint
and here I'm going to make you
the best burger
and the cook
is sitting there smoking a cigarette
and this is how scandalous
smokers are
especially if you're trying to quit
a lot of my buddies were like this
they didn't care
they smoke butts off the ground
Riggs leads over like
are you done with that
yeah so he was about to hit it
and rather
no here
eat this and then gave him
a fucking raw onion
so Riggs just bites into that
I liked that the cook was just
like looking at him like what the fuck
watching him like eat the onion
and this is
when the scene happens
that we talked about about the
the
mertoc killing the
the one kid
because earlier earlier when
Raj was at his house
he goes outside
and Nick is out there talking to his friends
Yeah, Darryl.
Darryl is his name.
His friend Darrell, and he's just all thugged out, and he's all in red.
And then that's when he's like, how's Darrell doing?
Is he all right?
He's good.
He's cool, man.
Don't worry about it.
The father mode kicks in.
I mean, you just try to tell your kids to stay away from guys like that.
My mom and dad said it to me, too.
I had a lot of friends that were into some shit.
Some didn't make it.
And some were still out there doing it and some retired.
So I totally understood this part.
So, yeah, so we knew who Darrell was and we figured he was doing something shady because he was trying to bring in Nick.
And Nick was like, nah, I'm good.
I mean, but Darrell was still, I guess I was a good friend because he didn't try to bring Nick into it.
I'm sure he threw it, gave him the offer.
But then he probably told us, but now he's not about this life.
Let's just do what we got to do.
So while back to the little hamburger joint,
Rod just cooking up the burgers laughing around.
Riggs turns around eating his onion,
and he notices some guys at like a construction site.
Guys are all red,
and it looks like there was some kind of exchanges going on.
So he kind of walks over there and looks,
and he kind of peeks around a corner and comes out with his badge.
And, oh, hey, LAPD.
And then those guys immediately turn around
and just start opening fire on.
Riggs.
Raj hears it.
He goes running over there.
Riggs is about to
shoot someone because everyone's running
and getting the hell out of there and cars
are taken off.
Someone hits him in the back
of the head with the hits
Martin in the back of the head with a two by
four. That must have fucking sucked.
Because he falls down. He's all dizzy.
I think that
was Daryl that hit him.
No, Darrell was in
the shed.
Okay. Did that guy get
get away who hit him with the board?
Yeah, because he hit him and then the camera goes to him and he's
gone down the alleyway.
Okay. So yeah, because then when he's there
and he, I know
the Daryl, well, we don't know it's Daryl, I guess we kind of do.
He's firing the gun out, out the door.
Roger comes running over, makes sure, pulls rigs out of the way,
make sure he's all right, and then he kind of tells him
that direction.
and Roger sees where the gunfire and Rod just opens fire.
He uses Martin's gun first and just unloads that clip,
then pulls out his and then starts firing it.
And then you see Darrell come, like, basically, like, crawling out of the door.
And then he just falls to the ground.
And Raj runs up to him.
And then when he flips him over, that's when he realizes that it's Darrell.
And he's like, oh, fuck.
And he's like, calling ambulance.
and he's trying to just revive him.
And I mean, this part was tough too because Riggs comes over to him.
He goes, Raj, he's gone.
He's gone, man.
He goes, it's too late.
It was a clean shot, man.
We're all right.
He goes, he was going to kill you and he didn't kill me.
Yeah.
And that was true because before Murtau opened fire, he gave him a warning.
And I believe Darrell stuck his arm out of the shed and started firing the gun.
Yeah.
But just the look on Raj's face was just like horrifying.
Because he said, I know this kid.
And I'm sure he, I mean, we've known our kids' friends since there were little, little kids.
And to see someone that you see grow up and then something like that happens.
I mean, some of my son's friends were out there doing stupid shit.
some are in prison
and some are living a homeless
on the street as well as some of my friends
is too I mean one of one of my buddies
he's like homeless in San Francisco
and he did a lot of
a lot of dirty shit
but yeah
and what would what would you say
Daryl's probably was 16 17
he had to be the same age as Nick
so yeah Nick was still in high school so he
was still a teenager
but he was out there trying to live
that life
and
that's what happens.
Consequences.
Yep.
I mean,
you want to do it, man.
You just,
you got to deal with it.
You have the consequences
and what happened.
So any of you young listeners,
man,
just,
try to just do right.
Go to school.
Yeah, go to school and do all that,
man.
I'm not saying I was the best kid
in the neighborhood,
but I've seen my share of shit
and did my share of dirt.
So,
but that's behind me.
I'm glad that I'm still here
to,
to talk about it.
But, I mean, especially in this film.
I mean, that, that, that's this story dealing with that with the little kids just growing up into, to, to, to come to jump into the life.
I mean, it's, it's a story that's being told all over this country.
I mean, I'm, I'm sure it happens in other parts of the world as well.
But, um, just like I always tell my kids, you don't need to touch the fire to feel how hot it is, especially if somebody,
telling you is hot.
And some got to
see for themselves, though.
And listen to people that's been there
and done that. Yep.
I always tell my son.
I said, you only know this little town you grew up in.
Now you're in the Bay Area. You don't know
nothing about that life.
I said, just keep your head above the ground
and do good. I said, that's all
I ask you. He listens. I think
he's more mad of disappointing
his mom. So he's
a good kid. That's good.
So, yeah, they realize that one of the guns that Darrell had, it had the armor-piercing bullets in it.
And they find out that it was a part of one of the shipments that was stolen that was meant to be destroyed.
It was stolen by Travis, and obviously they're the ones that sold it to all the gangbangers in the streets.
So I know Roger, everybody was looking for him because he tried to go home, but he just,
I'm sure he couldn't face his son, and much less his family.
And then he just, he kept on going.
And then they, Riggs was trying to do some more investigating and he was dealing with Lorna.
This is when they had their little showing off all their scar scenes?
Not yet.
They have to go to the warehouse first.
Oh, that's right.
But I think it was it?
No, they show up with Raj, but this is when,
before that is when they,
Riggs goes to,
he finds Raj at his boat.
And he's all drunk.
Well, Col, or Lorna and,
um,
uh,
Riggs,
they go,
they go to somewhere else first because that's when you have the scene with the,
with the dog,
the Rottweiler.
Oh,
that's right.
And then they find those guys who are loading those,
uh,
cases of guns in the back of the truck.
And this is where,
you get to see
Lorna in action.
Oh, that's right, because he watches her kick
those dudes' asses.
And then, because later he's when he,
he stops Raj from jumping in.
You can watch this.
Yeah.
And after this scene is when you get the
comparing of all the,
the bullet wounds and stab wounds.
And then he beats it up.
And then he goes to look for Raj.
Yeah, which I always found.
I was like, wow, I mean, I know it's a movie, but like, you went and did all this and then you went and checked on them.
Yeah, I mean, I think I wouldn't look for my buddy first before.
Because if it's there, you know, it's going to be there later for you.
So it's a movie, everyone.
So, yeah, he goes to Roger's boat, and Rodgers in there.
He goes looking around and then Raj pulls his gun out on him.
and Rogers just wasted.
And this part was tough, man.
Because he was just crying for what he did.
Other than he shot, I mean, you can see it.
Because one of my buddies' dad said,
he goes, what hurt him is that he shot another black kid.
And he said it was, it was that hard for him.
I mean, that's exactly what happened in this.
Roger was other than it was someone he knew it was just a young a young black teenager
That was there was just
Yeah, he was he was defending himself, but then again, I mean, I don't think he would have been that bad if he didn't know
That kid he kept saying I know him. I know this kid and
It was just eating him up which it probably would have done to anybody
Yeah, so but that that scene was tough and
Raj, or Riggs was just trying to hold his buddy together, hold his brother together.
They fell out on the bull.
Yeah, because, uh, oh, no, he punched him.
Yeah, he kept trying to fight him.
And then they had that conversation with it, which I thought was a good scene, how,
because he's, he kept saying, talking about retirement, retirement.
And then Riggs kind of goes off on him, basically telling him, like, I'm part of your life.
your family's part of my life your kids are my kids and when you retire you're you're not just
retiring you you're retiring us yeah that's when they they got in a little scuffle and fell into
the water you realize he sobered up hella fast when the cops showed up yeah but i thought that
was a good scene though because he just kept telling martin like you care martin i was like i don't
care i don't care but yeah when they hit that water water must have been super cold
too. Yeah, because he's sobered up
hella quick.
It wasn't slurring anymore, but
I mean, that was a good scene.
That was a good strong scene to
see. I mean, we only know from
what we've seen in the movies, but we
saw how they were in the very beginning to
where they didn't want to work with each other.
But then at the end of the movie,
he's welcomed him into his
house. And then the second one, I already know
they're tighter, and this one, they're even tighter.
And now that scene
in the boat, I mean,
all the dialogue, I mean, was just
like heartfelt. And that's
why it always puts me to tears, man,
because that, I mean, that's true, man.
When you have homies like that, I mean, you know
you've been there for each other. You've been through the shit.
And then when your homie said, you're sad.
I've been there many times with a lot of my friends.
So, but I love that scene.
It was a really good, powerful scene.
Um,
oh, then.
Funeral next.
Oh.
Yeah, I mean, I can't hear that song at all.
Boys to Man.
Yeah.
It reminds me in my buddy's funeral.
My buddy Brody, he was riding the skateboard at night and he got hit.
He got hit by a car.
Killed him.
They played that at his funeral.
I was good until that song came on.
And then I just went, oh, fuck.
It just floored me.
So every time I hear that song, if it comes on the radio, especially when it was a hit.
I had to change it.
I couldn't hear.
I couldn't listen to it.
And during this scene, I haven't heard that song, maybe since the last time I watched this film.
But when that song came on, I was like, oh, it was a tough scene.
I mean, it was a good song to choose to fit that scene.
And like you said earlier, when his mom, when he walked up, Raj tried to apologize to Daryl's mom.
And she probably didn't want to do it, but.
she was mad i mean this guy killed her son but she i'm sure she just wanted to get it out of
her system but i mean i liked what the dad said you want to do something to find the guy that
put the gun in my son's hand this is where you get angry roger who did he roll up on first
i i want to say it was one of uh one of one of darrell's friends that i don't know if he was
there with him or just somebody where he probably knew
this guy would know where Darrell got the gun and which he he had the gun Darrell had in his hand.
Okay, really quick.
Another nitpick.
Did they not, that gun should have been in evidence.
And I don't think they're just going to let you take a murder, well, not a murder weapon, but a stolen machine gun.
I don't have it.
Technically, I mean, they're not even supposed to be on the case.
Yeah.
I guess you can break all the laws you want.
I guess you figure Lorna's kind of just throwing the rules at the window at this point, too.
Yeah, he hit that spot.
So she was just looking the other way.
Yeah.
But, yeah, he puts the gun up to this kid's head.
And he apparently, because we cut to the scene of them showing up to Tyrone, the doing air quotes,
momsters house.
and so I'm assuming he gave up all the information.
Yeah, he did.
So after he, they,
shit, what happened after they showed up?
Do we go back to the police station after this?
When Travis shows up?
Or was this when the three of them go to that
construction site garage or whatever?
It's like a car garage because they had like bumpers and rims and maybe it was like chop shop or something.
Yeah, because they had guns in the back of that car in the trunk.
And it was some kind of deal going down because then they rolled up on there and started looking.
And then that's when Lorner went up and was trying to stop them.
And then Riggs held back Roger because I need you, just watch this.
And then she commenced to kick in their asses.
Yeah, he's in love.
love because for her rod's like there's like five of them and Riggs is like I know I know
you got it honey he was like oh oh Raj look at this spin kick right here yeah it's so did they
interrogate someone they had that one guy who was like a mechanic they had him
handcuffed and then I guess he was like I
I don't know no Jack Travis.
And then Riggs was like, I never said his name.
And then the guy was just kind of out, shit.
Gave up that information.
And I think that's when we go back to the police station.
And then fuck, I don't remember.
I think this is when Travis comes back.
I don't, is he, I don't remember if he's going for the guns or what.
And then he takes, he takes the captain hostage.
That's right.
I think he was going back for the guns.
Okay.
I'm trying to. I'm looking at it.
Riggs, Martel, and Cole are able to take several of the men into custody.
Custody there.
Meanwhile, I was after she beat him all up.
Meanwhile, Travis finds he cannot use his credentials anymore,
and he has one of his men hack into the computer system
to find another arm storage area.
And then he forces, this is when he goes in there.
It says he forces Captain Murphy under gunpoint to take him to this new facility
so he can steal the guns use in Murphy's credentials, the captain's credentials.
Oh, okay, that was a reason why they took.
And I want to say Captain Murphy is the most understanding captain.
Yeah, man.
I think it was in this one where Riggs is smoking in his office and he was like,
do you see what that sign says?
And he was like, yeah, the same thing as this other sign, but I don't give a fuck.
I was like, okay, Captain.
You just let your men talk to you however.
But I guess.
Says Cole finds the evidence of hacking and Murphy's absence and the three along with the rookie cop.
Oh, this is when they bring that one little rookie guy.
And who looks up to Riggs and Mertau to go intercept Travis.
They are able to rescue Murphy and stop Travis and his men before they can take the weapons.
and then it says the rookie gets killed.
All right.
So when they go there,
that was when they're at that train station.
It was under construction, I think.
Yeah, were they, was it like a gun deal going down?
Because I can't remember.
It wasn't where the guns were, was it?
I think it was all, I don't know.
It seemed weird.
It seemed like the whole thing was under construction in the same area.
So I think their idea was too
Because they had that truck
That kind of had the little
Train track wheels that fall down
So I think it was
They were going to get the guns
And they were going to use the train tracks
That was under construction to get them out
I think they already loaded it up
Because they had
There was a I think it was just bullets
In the back of that truck
Okay
Because then when they showed up
They took off
and they saved the captain
and Riggs went hauling ass after that truck
and then
where'd that train come from
that rig jumped up? Oh no
he went running after that truck then he got to the
train station that he jumped up onto the platform
and then he was running running hauling ass
as fast as than the train
and then jumped in the very front
of the driver's car
And then he was hanging on.
He was, all right, punch it.
Tell him the driver to catch up to the car that was still on the tracks.
And no way that got.
Well, he showed him his badge.
But then he could have been some lunatic with a fake police badge movie, everyone.
So they go hauling ass after that truck.
I loved it because he was just hanging on.
Luckily, there was a bumper for him to stand on.
Well, I'm sure there is bumpers on those things.
I'm sure those trains hit each other all the time.
So he was standing out there holding on to the windshield wipers
And they were hauling ass
I like that car because yeah
I had little wheels that fit on the tracks
But once they got out into the open those little wheels came up
And then they took off
He chased them oh he got outside
And then he started running after him again
And Mertal and everyone else is just trying to find him
Riggs is running down the street
and he sees a traffic cop
has someone stopped, a motorcycle cop
and he shows him his badge,
yeah, I'm in a high pursuit,
and he jumps on the bike,
and takes off.
This is probably my favorite scene
because he's hauling ass on this police bike chasing him.
They're on this busy-ass freeway
that's under construction.
That truck kind of makes a hard left
to go into one of the construction areas
on the freeway.
And Riggs goes hauling ass
after them. I don't know what they were doing there.
I don't know why there was big old clouds of smoke
or
steam or whatever.
So that truck drives through it and then when all the
fuck they realized that the freeway
has not completed, it's
ended. Man, they should have just did a speed.
Jumped. You can jump in that big bus. You can jump it
in that little truck. But
I don't think there was another
side of the freeway.
So they're, they slammed on the brakes,
didn't they? And then they turned. Oh, yeah, they
turned around and then they went charging back the other direction.
And this is when Riggs was about to go head on with him.
And then he swerved and he wiped out on his bike and then just slid.
Luckily, there was all these power cables or whatever they were and ropes all matted up.
I don't know who's running this construction site.
It was totally a hazard.
He grabs those ropes.
And I love how he just goes, ah, flies off the.
off the freeway and swings.
And luckily,
Murta just happened to pull up right at the right spot at the bottom.
Hey,
it's his partner.
So everyone showed up because even Leo showed up.
So Riggs is hanging there on the,
with the ropes.
And I guess,
I don't know,
I think the ropes like just got untangled or something
because then it really just loosened up and fell.
And I love this camera shot.
It's from above.
You see Riggs.
falling.
And he's just like, oh shit.
He's falling backwards and goes crashing into all these little construction boards.
Luckily, that was there.
He didn't go straight to the ground.
But that was him.
He did that stunt.
I'm sure he didn't do the, when they show him slamming into it.
But that was him.
I'm sure he was all fucking cabled up and everything.
Because that was a cool little shot.
I liked how they did it.
And then that's when everyone shows.
up.
Leo showed up.
Although,
this is when he told him about
the construction site about being the
the Jack owed it way out there.
Yeah, Leo had the information.
I don't know how he knew where to find
Riggs and Mertal, but he's the one
that gave him information about the housing development.
Because he was a real estate agent.
So he was, because he remembered the name.
And then he was like,
he bought up all this land way out there and that's probably where everything is going on
and he wanted to go with him and they were like no so fucking rig shot leo's tire and he goes i got a spare
then roj blew out the back tire and then they took off and then they went out there um
oh before all that i mean why they were still in in the train station before the chase
um that's when that rookie cop got shot yeah uh
the bullet went straight through whatever he was hiding behind.
Yeah.
And it hit him.
So he was dead.
And it was his birthday, 21.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, well, we knew he was going to die when they.
Oh, yeah.
They kept just letting you know he's super young and a rookie.
Yeah.
It's over and over.
I'm like, oh, well, you're dead.
So, yeah, then they all end up going out to that construction site.
all right
I know they're not supposed to be on the case
and they broke you they're breaking down all these protocols
the captain already knows all this
well since the captain was involved
in all this and he knew where they were going
why didn't the fucking whole police force go out there
makes the movie better
it's just them three
takes everybody down
so they go out there
I know Lorna was kicking ass for a minute
but then she got shot didn't she
yeah she got shot
and it's just a huge gunfight.
And then, of course, you know, Riggs always has to do something crazy.
So he, what was it like a gas tank that had a hose to it,
that he just started letting it go.
And he was like, count to 10.
He's talking to Roger, count to 10.
And then light it up.
And he's driving while it's just leaking this gas,
does fuel all over the place.
Yeah, that's right, because he drove through all the,
it was all just wood frames.
and he crashed through all that
and spilled gas everywhere
and then they lit it up
and then the whole development
was on fire
he
this is when he was fighting
Jack right
yeah which I kind of thought
this was weak
oh man yeah Martin
well just fucking whooped his ass
with the first couple punches
I don't think
Jack was that
tough of a cop
I did like how he
killed him though
with his own weapons
and armor pitch and bullets because they had fought for a minute and then he had got onto this bulldozer and was driving it towards Riggs.
And then Riggs had one of the guns and then fired it and it went through the little, I don't know what you call it, but the front part of the bulldozer and straight through and killed Travis.
Which I like how he got taken out.
I just thought there would have been more to lead up to that point.
All right.
Here's another nitpig.
I don't know how thick those little scooper things are in the front of a bulldozer,
but I'm guarantee you no bullet.
He could go through that solid, thick-ass steel, but that's me.
Cop killers, cop-killer bullets.
And he's an ex-cop, so.
I thought, what did Roger do?
Roger was taking out people left and right and laying down cover fire.
And he took out of quite a few people.
Okay.
Because I was thinking, what the hell was he doing when Riggs was doing all this?
The Lorna was shot.
Then what happened?
They had the little love moment where he's telling her to live and he loves her.
and then they
for a couple days
yeah but I guess
according to the movie
they have so much in common
and bent through so much in a couple days
they're in love with each other
and then the helicopter takes her
to the hospital
and then
what do we cut to the next day
because I guess
Raj was
trying to sell his house
and then they'd change, which you get the fucking bathroom scene again.
I don't know.
Fucking leave me alone while I'm in the toe.
And this time they, I mean, it was proved that he was naked because Leo looks in and goes,
because he points at it.
Yeah.
In reference something.
I'm, like, I love my kids and my wife and everything, but if I'm in there in the bath,
but naked, no one's coming in.
I don't care what's going on.
But it says the next day Murtaugh's family is celebrating his retirement.
When Murtau reveals to get so he's decided not to sell his house and stay on the force
Serving his partnership with Riggs film ends Riggs announces Murataw he and Cole are in a relationship
Yeah, okay yeah because they bust in doing another scene with a retirement cake and all that
But then there's when he finally realized it I'm not gonna do it
I'm still they've got a few more years in him and then yeah, that's when Riggs tells them about him and laura and
movies over.
Yeah, I mean, talking about it, man.
I mean, it's good.
I mean, I liked what was happening in those,
the scenes between Raj and Riggs
during the sad parts.
So it was probably like one of the best,
best scenes within,
within the series.
Yeah,
so really good character development between them,
between,
for their relationship to just show you how much they,
they care about each other.
how much they've been through.
I'm not too old for this shit.
I'm not too over this.
You will not.
We're not too over this shit.
We're not too old for this shit.
We're not too old for this.
We're not too old for this shit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're not too old for this shit.
I'm not going to buy a hemorrhoid.
We're not too old for this shit.
I'm not going to get corn.
Yeah, I got coins.
I'm not wearing a suit.
What's the wrong with wearing a suit?
What's the wrong with a suit?
Hey, I don't get it.
Yep.
So that was one, 92.
When that one came out.
Yep.
All right.
We can go to from 92 to 1998.
This is one that had no idea that it was coming.
It just fucking, I saw a trailer.
And I was like, what?
I was super excited.
All right, man.
Hopefully this, maybe this is the last one.
Get out of it.
This summer.
I give my right on for a siren right now.
If you're looking for fun, Warner Brothers invites you to join the gang.
Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Joe Pesci, Renee Russo, and Chris Rock in a Richard Dr. Fifth.
Lethal Weapon 4.
This summer's going to be lethal.
Read it all.
Starts Friday, July 10.
This is Lethal Weapon 4.
Came out 98, action comedy, Detective Riggs, tries to settle down with his pregnant girlfriend, Lorna,
while his partner Murtaugh comes to the grips with the marriage of his pregnant daughter, Rian.
to a fellow to fellow cop
Butters
Okay, spoiler alert
But then find themselves
And their families
Targeted by Chinese mobsters
Led by
Wasing Ku
That's Jet Li
I didn't even know he had a name
Riggs Murtaugh
Butters and Private Eye Gets
Decide to go
On the offense before the gangsters
Get offensive before the
Gangsters get to their loved ones
Oh, okay
Private Eye Gets
Yeah
All right
There's a gum shoe.
That was Google.
I'm surprised I didn't use that name into it.
Like Leo gets private eye because Leo always gets his man or something, something like that.
With personal crises and aging weighing in on them LAPD officers, Rigsmer, Tom Musk,
contained with deadly Chinese triads that are trying to free their former leaders out of prison
and onto American soil.
Okay.
Richard Donner, he directed all of them.
He's back.
Shane Black wrote this.
Jonathan Limkin,
and there's three other people
I want to go through it.
Everyone's back again.
Bill Gibson, Danny Glover,
Joe Pesci, Renee Russo,
Stephen Khan, that's Captain Murphy.
He's back.
The whole Murtaff family.
They're all back.
All the same actors.
Tracy Wolf,
she looked hot, hair was long again.
I don't know what it is,
but I don't know.
Once you become a mom, in my eyes, you just get hotter.
So she was pregnant, but at this point, we don't know by who,
because they kind of go into it, and Roger's thing,
I'm going to be the one raising this kid because you're going to be raising this kid by yourself.
But we get some new comic relief, and that's the,
the great Chris Rock, he's Lee Butters.
I was kind of, when I remember seeing his name on the poster or seeing him in the trailer
and I was thinking, and that's kind of a lot of guys, a lot of funny dudes in this one.
So I wasn't really sure on how he was going to mess with him.
But Chris Rock slid right in like he's been in all four movies.
So I thought he was a really good addition to the cast.
and this is when I was introduced to Jet Lee.
I never seen this guy before and I did not know who he was
and didn't realize how badass he was in this film.
I mean, this one opened my eyes,
open the doors to who Jet Lee was
because that's when I had to go back
and I went to the video store and started renting everything,
all his old movies that he was in.
Was this his,
American breakthrough?
This is what I remember him from as far as American films, the first thing.
Yeah, I want, I could be wrong.
Maybe if one of you guys know, whoever's the Jet Lee that knows everything about him.
I mean, again, I didn't know nothing about him.
This was the first thing I'd seen him in.
I thought it was awesome.
And then I just went back to start watching all his old Kung Fu Flicks.
What's your badass?
I'm looking.
It looks like.
like this was probably his first one and then right after this he did a Romeo must die
we gotta do that one at some point that kiss of the dragon and um what was that one with
DMX oh cradix was a grave yeah I haven't seen that in a while the only part I
remember that is when he did the DMX was on those quads jumping from roof to roof
what I remember is when DMX ran up that wall I was like okay the
got goofy, but hey,
what can you do?
But this one was
fucking awesome. I mean, this is my
second. I love the first one. And then
if I got to put him in order, it's
one, four, two, then three.
Because
what sold this one to me, other than
every time Danny Glover and
Mel Gibson on the screen are awesome
as well as Joe Pesci
was the bad
guy. I mean, Jet
Lee, he wasn't the main bad guy. He
was just there and he was the basically the muscle and they had a bunch of
of henchmen that we all know and love we've seen him in many different films
the one that always stood out to me was the one that that Rambo killed in Rambo 2
well he was Vietnamese in that one what the fuck is his name he shot him with the
exploding arrow yeah he just watched Rambo shoot an arrow at him he just tried to run
didn't even try to hide.
George
Chiung,
I think that's his name.
He's a fan
in this.
He's one of those guys
that,
okay.
I mean,
he's,
I think he was in,
were he in big trouble
in little China?
Yeah,
and so was the other guy
that,
uh,
we're kind of jumping over here,
but,
um,
the one that,
uh,
Jet Lee takes out.
Yeah.
On the rooftop.
Oh,
him,
he was.
And then the other dude with,
uh,
long hair.
Um,
Jeff.
Amada.
I think he was in big trouble as well.
I mean, but then again, all these guys,
I mean, yeah, he wasn't.
He was one of the stunt guys in big trouble in Little China.
These guys, as well as, what's his name,
Ali Young, he's in this.
I didn't see him, but they said he was one of the stunt dudes.
So, of course, I mean, he's a legendary stunt man.
And he's one of those, hey, it's that guy.
So, I mean, there was a lot, a lot.
a lot of the guys
on the
and the triad gang
crew
you've seen before
in other
other movies
be it some other
martial arts movie
or what have you
so
again we've
always bring them up
when we talk about
these action films
but it's good
to see them in the back
I think you get more excited
like oh hey
there's that one dude
or hey there's that other guy
hey
one of the henchmen's
was what's his name
from best of the best
uh day Han
Oh, best of the best.
We're going to do that one too.
Yeah, I was say, put it down.
I haven't seen those movies.
I just found it did like four or five, but I've seen three of them.
But I never knew until recently the Dehan and the main guy for America.
Oh, what was his name?
Oh, fuck.
Tommy or whatever.
Yeah.
Yeah, they're brothers in real life.
What?
Yeah.
day Hans's older brother oh okay yourself there was a not the more no no
Lorenzo Lamas um uh Darth Vader yeah James Earl Jones yeah I don't know
well when we get to those quick question I know we're we tend to get
off subject but is he coming back to do Vader's voice I don't see why not I mean
I mean, all he's doing is sitting in a room reading the script.
I mean, he did it for Rogue One and Revenge of the Sith.
So is it going to be his voice with the mask on?
And then Hayden Christensen's voice when he takes the mask off?
I guess.
Okay.
Are they going to dub it over?
I don't know.
Sound like James Earl Jones.
It's got to be James O. Jones.
It can't be Christian Haydinson.
I mean, this is, okay.
really quick. I know we're supposed to be talking about this one.
Everybody was pissed on how
Hayden Christians enacted in Attack of the Cologne
and Revenge of the City.
Yes, it wasn't the greatest acting.
But I can appreciate what he did
in those two movies. He did what he was hired for.
Was he the greatest actor? No.
But he still did it. And now everyone's
super excited. Now you've got had to get in the comments.
You guys were all mad before. Now why are you all excited?
I was excited because I liked him no matter what.
But anyway, we'll get to that one.
And we'll win when it comes out.
So as far as bad guys in this one, I thought I really liked, out of all four of them,
I think I liked these guys the best.
I mean, dealing with the Chinese triad gangs that did start in China and then they end up here in America.
So I liked, especially, was it, Uncle Benny?
Uncle Benny.
Kim Chen.
he's good and everything you pops up he's another one of those guys that pops up in all kinds of films
um but uh how did this one start uh the the fucking crazy guy with the armor and the
flamethrower and machine gun and i have no idea what the fuck he was trying to do yeah that's
right because they just showed up and you see that guy with a flamethrower and a machine gun and
And then they're just trying to stop them.
Because, yeah, I don't know what.
They never really said why.
This guy woke up hating the world and put on all his armored gear.
Because he was like head to toe with the armored stuff.
And then that welding mask.
I guess I assume that was bulletproof as well, as well as the body armor and all that he had on.
Yeah, because Riggs was going for head shots.
And they were just like ping, ping, ping.
Yeah, so that's when they came up with the idea of just, you know, you got to distract him so I can shoot the fuel line on his backpack that went to the flame thor.
I love this part, and it's real, it touches me now because we lost the great Eddie Van Halen.
And that's what that guy does.
He turns up a fire in the hole.
That one Van Halen song when Sammy Hagar was in the group, he turns it up full.
blast and
start blowing shit up
and shooting his
machine gun and everything.
Rest and peace,
Eddie,
we love you and we miss you.
But I like that
because he told Roger,
he goes,
man,
he goes,
you just got to take
off your clothes
and go over there
and make sounds like a bird.
He goes,
is that going to help?
Because yeah,
man, it'll distract him
so I can shoot him.
I love when,
when,
well,
I guess the shit's
going down and you're
just trying to think
really quick.
But Roger's like,
all right,
he goes out there
and does it and takes his clothes off
and he has
his boxers
with hearts on it.
He starts laughing.
And then he goes out there and doing it.
And then that's when that guy turns to him.
He's getting ready to torch
Raj.
Riggs and opens fires on him and then
hits his fuel line and then he falls over
and like a rocket.
He goes shooting into. Luckily that big
fuel truck was right
there. Because he goes right into
that, then the whole thing
blows up.
Oh, the old
fuel truck that's just there.
That whole thing blew up
and then they're like, oh man, do you think it
worked?
Do you think what I did help?
No, I just wanted to see if you do it.
So,
then where does it go?
I think we
need to go back to the police station,
but I want to say we go to
China when they are loading
we don't know
who they are yet but they're loading these
prisoners onto a plane
all right
let me see
on
Wikipedia
no no no after that
after that whole thing is when they go to the boat
ah yeah okay
we finally see
Raj out in the open in the open
motion. It's not the same boat that he had in the first one or the second one. So he must be that well. And I guess he had more money in this one. Because there are Raj, Leo, and Martin are on the boat. And they're laughing around because Leo caught a shark. It looked like a little Mako shark or something. Shout out to the special effects guy. It wasn't CGI or nothing. It was something they made. So they're the, the
boat that shark was on the boat trying to flip it flip and flop and they were kind of going off like yeah
whatever man laughing around he goes he leo wanted to just get it stuffed and mounted onto the wall so
while they're laughing around and giggling and everything um this big freighter uh comes almost almost
does he hit his boat i think it almost does i think it may it may have grazed it so because when it
goes by and they're like what the fuck is that and then they start looking up and then they're like
they start to chase it because it's it's kind of hauling ass it was going by pretty quick and then
they heard gunshots yeah so say that they hurt some gunshots so they go chasing it and uh
that's when they uh they they take they pull up to the back and then um they're showing their badges
and then those uh the chinese guys on the back of that boat start opening fire uh on them and that's
when uh riggs pulls out his side arm and just june.
just starts unloading on them.
And it's all right, get up to the side.
And that's when they get up to the side of the boat.
And then Riggs jumps on that little hook thing, a little pulley.
And then he goes up and gets on the boat.
And then he kind of gets in the scuffle with those dudes.
And he kills some of them on the back.
What blew up?
He shot what do you call them, like oil canisters?
Okay.
And when they got shot, they would like shoot straight up in the air.
Because, oh, the boat already, like, did the beached up onto the sand.
So it stopped.
And Raj and Leo were still on the boat.
And yeah, that's when Riggs hit that one barrel.
And they blew up and shot straight up in the air.
And then it started to come down because they were like, oh, look.
And then it came down.
And they were like, ah, so those two jumped off the boat because that barrel came down and smashed onto his boat and it started to sink.
And then Leo's like, I can't swim.
I can't swim.
So, Raj is trying to get him.
And then all of a sudden, here comes the shark that was in the back of the boat.
So it starts coming towards him.
And they're like, ah, and they're trying to swim away.
Yeah, that's when Martin opens up because once the boat beached,
a lot of the guys jumped off the the bad guys kind of shimmied down ropes and and just took off into the night
Riggs goes and opens up one of the little little hole thing or whatever on the deck and he sees all kinds of
Chinese families in there and now this is when they realized that these guys were smuggling over
Chinese families and basically making them slaves here in America
to work off their debt
because they find out that these people
come over here
other than to just get out of China
for all the craziness that was going on
wherever they were from.
They come over to America
illegally,
but then how they're supposed to pay for them
to get is to do work.
I mean,
this type of shit still goes on today.
I mean,
and it's not just Chinese.
It's all kinds of.
of different immigrants that you see on the street that are out there hustling and working.
And they probably don't even get any of the money.
So that was basically they were bringing them over to be slaves here in America.
At this point, they didn't know it was the triads, but then later on they find out that it is
because the whole police department shows up.
And then they're just trying to figure out what they're going to do.
They start taking some of the families.
and telling them that yeah we're just gonna we're gonna put you in these um
little uh little containment places until we figure out u.s immigration type things to try to figure out
sending you guys back so but then that's when they're they're told them that say you look yeah he goes
because they found some dead ones and they said yeah it goes every every boatload they they
they kill a few to let them know look if you guys don't listen to us this is what's going to happen
so rod just kind of lingering around and then he's over by
he sees this boat
a little
like a life raft
a big wood one
it's beached
and he hears something
like I think somebody sneezed
or something
and there's like a big
tarp over it
and he opens up the tarp
and there's a whole
family
of Chinese people in there
and he kind of looks around
and just covers it
and doesn't
you don't see anything
I think that's the next day
is when
before we leave the scene
we get interesting
introduced to Detective Butters
Horace Farr.
Yeah, because
he was funny too, because he started
going off. That's when they
when they, what's this? What's this?
And then he opens it up and then sees it.
There's a Chinese guy dead.
And then he goes into his
his whole speech, man. He goes,
the fuck did this guy do to deserve this?
And that's when they were like,
Wriggs and Roger were looking at. I'm like,
whoa, whoa.
And at this, at this point,
They're always like because butters comes up Chris Rock and he goes here man get get him a blanket because they're they're all wet.
Roger and them are all wet from being in the water.
Leo's over there talking to the news talking about they they were shooting and then this bomb came and then the blew up the boat and then the shark came and they were going into that whole big old
scene on the news.
So that that's when they feel they they figured out what was going on and who all these.
who all these Chinese people were on the boat.
Next scene is Roger, not Roger,
Rigg shows up at his house.
Lorna is there cooking.
She's big and pregnant.
They're kind of talking about what they're going to do,
this and that.
Lorna's reading those crazy love novels and everything,
and they're kind of laugh around about that.
But then they go for a walk.
and what brought them up what brought up uh rog in them oh no she said she told him that um
she knew who the father was yeah no well she brought up um that they think roj was on the take
because it was she she might have she she overheard them saying that they were investigating him
because rogers all of a suddenly came in to all this money so and then they were talking
about that and then he goes well he's he's got other things to worry up worry about other than that
and that's when it slipped that she said that um she she knew you the father was for uh rean's baby
and then he just slowly got it out of her and then we find out that it's uh chris rock uh butters
they kept called him biscuits biscuits and all kinds of they kept calling them all kinds of different
things but uh yeah and and we
get we met uh what is his
roger mentions earlier that
he hopes the father isn't a cop
because he don't want her
marrying a cop
yeah so yeah
she she tells him and then
you gotta promise me you're not going to tell him
and go no no okay I won't but you know
rigs so they end up going
to uh
roger's house
they go in there and they start talking
Raj comes down the kids are there
Nick and
whatever the young girl is.
I can't remember her name.
She looks exactly the same
from the first movie
except just told her.
So she's there and that
is when Rianne shows up
and she's all big and pregnant
and she's fucking hotter than ever
than this one.
So she shows up
and that's when they started talking about.
And that's when Roger's telling her.
Yeah, I go, I'm gonna,
Grandpa Rogers is gonna be the one raising
this kid when you're trying to raise a kid
by yourself and all that and
Rakes and well I guess she doesn't
luckily she doesn't marry the wrong guy
and then they all looked at him
and they go you know like a cop or something
because
everybody knows
who the dad is except for
for Raj at this point
I mean even the kids knew because they all
looked at them as well as Trish
and Rianne so those
those two kids come
Nick and the younger one
I can't remember her name
they're getting ready to leave but they want some money.
Raj pulls out this big water money and just starts handing them a bunch of 20s.
And then as when Ray goes, um,
do we get a raise and someone didn't tell me?
And then he just kind of goes, oh,
oh, it's just some money I had.
He said, Trish came into some money and that's what it.
So he's like, oh, okay.
So that's when he tells them, they goes, yeah.
And then Lorna comes in and that's when they re-liked it.
they were hungry she's hungry
because they go that smells like someone's
cooking something in there and oh yeah they're just
in there trying to cook you know well come on let's go
he tries to get them out the door
but then we see this little
Chinese boy stick his head out the door
and Martin sees them
and then they say he goes it smells like
Chinese foods or they start walking in there
and that's when Raj stops them and he goes
it is because there's a Chinese family in
there and Riggs is like yeah
I know
and then they go in there and they open it
And that whole family that was in the boat is sitting in the kitchen.
And they're all cooking up a big old meal.
Oh, the kids didn't leave you because they were in there.
This is when Nick and the daughter were sitting there eating with the hongs.
That was the name of the family.
So that's when Raj comes out and talks to Riggs.
I did like this part was cool because when he goes, what are you doing?
Because you know this is illegal.
And you can get in trouble with this.
And he goes, but he goes, look, man.
He goes, he goes, these, those are slave ships out there.
And he goes, I'm free and slaves.
He goes, I'm doing something that nobody did for my ancestors, which made a lot of sense.
I mean, that's what I loved about that scene.
I mean, because again, like I said earlier, they were basically just work slaves that they brought here to America.
So you're like, yeah, I'm free and slaves.
And that's when they introduced them to all of them.
And then that's when with the money and everything.
So they ended up leaving
Where'd they go after this?
They went to the police station
To talk to the
Those other two detectives
That were like
Basically they knew what was going on in Chinatown
And this is when they got
Basically tipped off
That if anybody's smuggling in people
It would be Uncle Benny
That's right
Because then they end up going down there
We get some more
Awesome comedy with Chris Rock
and Joe Pesci because he shows up.
And I like this part when,
what the hell was happening?
He asked if he was a,
a prison,
I forgot what he said, but he assumed that
because Chris Rock was sitting in the backseat, he was arrested.
Oh, who's the perp?
Yeah.
Oh, you see a brother in the backseat?
No, immediately you think he's a perp.
He goes, look at the vads.
Look at the gun, bitch.
And then they, because they spotted him.
They go, hey, man.
He goes, did you tell Leo where we were going?
He was like, no.
He goes, oh, look, he's rigged looked in the rear of a mirror and spotted him.
And that's when they stopped.
He said he was trying to work on his tailing.
They said, he goes, oh, you saw me, huh?
And that's when they go through the whole thing with Chris Rock.
So, yeah, they end up going down to Uncle Benny's restaurant.
And they just want to talk to him.
But before they get there, Benny is talking to these other Chinese guys.
And Jet Li standing there.
And basically talking about, well, we need that family.
Because the guy that they were doing, they were doing stuff with, he goes, he's not going to do anything until he knows his family's safe.
And they go, well, where are they?
And they're like, I don't know.
Well, we'll find him.
And just wait.
So that's when
Jet Li told
Uncle Benny
If we were in Hong Kong
You'd be dead already
This was all being said
In Chinese Mandarin
Whatever you call
I don't know
There's many different
Chinese dialects
I only learn this
Because there's just one kid on YouTube
I watch
He's a white guy
But speaks different Chinese
Asian dialects
And he goes to
He lives in New York
And he goes to different
Restaurants
And just surprises
everyone. He starts speaking Chinese.
But anyway, that's my
knowledge of
the language.
So, they're in
there. And then this is when
Riggs and those guys all show up. And they
basically just barge into the
into Uncle Benny's office.
And they start talking
to him wanting to,
if they knew anything about these slave ships.
And he goes, I don't know what you're talking about.
And he goes, because they were saying his
restaurant was a front. And he goes,
No, this is a restaurant.
This is my business.
It's a restaurant.
And he goes, oh, what's so special?
What do you say?
Flight lice.
Yeah.
Flight lice.
He goes, no, it's fried rice.
Uncle Betty was saying.
Yeah, they got a little racial with the stuff.
But then there were rigs and goes, who's this guy?
And he was looking at Jet Lee.
And he was just looking at him.
He doesn't speak English.
and he goes
he goes yeah he does
look at him
and he just starts staring at him
and Jet Lee man
he's a little guy man
I saw him at Comic Con one year
I think it was for that
uh
was it the third mummy
uh
it was garbage
but
I only saw
was that a tomb of the dragon
or some bullshit like that
I guess
he was hardly in it anyway
but
um
I just remember he was really short
um
because yeah he's standing there staring at Riggs and they have a stare down and then
basically they were just kind of letting Benny know that okay we know what you're doing
but Benny was like I don't know what you guys are talking about so there's a big huge giant
two one way mirror two way mirror or whatever that goes out into the lobby and they're
going well we'll just take it the easy way and then Riggs pulls out his gun and with the
butt of his gun goes busts the glass and then they
they go walking out and then
did the
how'd they get the
the sprinklers
oh no he pulled the uh the fire alarm
yeah he pulled the fire alarm
and then a fucking all the water
started coming down everyone was ah
running around and then again
this is when Jet League is standing
there and then perfect English
we're in Hong Kong you'd be dead
which is true though
man you can't fuck around all those guys
it's different things man especially
dealing with big time crime organizations
and they'll kill you and not even think about it.
So,
him being in the triad
is more believable than
what was his name, Tyrone as a mobster.
Yeah.
So they go leaving
and there's these
two Asian guys standing out
in front of the restaurant
and then Martin goes,
hey, that's the guy that shot at me.
Then they see,
they see that them.
the cops and then they go running and they have this big old foot chase martins of course he's got
to run he's hauling ass after one dude chris rock started chasing uh another guy a different direction
uh roj ends up uh buying buying buying a bike i love that scene he goes he goes here me gave a kid
two hundred dollars here let me buy your bike and he when he just took the money then he went
Hey, Johnny, someone stole your bike.
So he goes riding as.
Riggs is running after that other dude.
I mean, they kind of jump up and down on the, oh, that one guy gets in the elevator.
And then Riggs jumps in the other one and they kind of start going.
It's like an outdoor mall, kind of shopping center type thing.
That Chinese guy pulls out a gun and it shoots that, or shoots out the glass and because then he jumps out of the elevator onto the other one.
going down he gets out and he goes running again uh chris rock ends up uh chasing uh that other chinese
guy into a restaurant and now he can they kind of get into a little scuffle hands is up catching him
and then they go into that big old uh deal of bag shit what did he say
i guess he said he works at the restaurant they were like why did you run he was like you were
chasing me with a gun i don't know before that when he was reading him his rights and you have
Oh, he's like,
yeah, he's telling
what was the guy saying?
No, he,
Chris Rock,
he told him,
look,
he goes,
you're of the right
to an attorney,
and if you get,
Johnny Cochran.
He goes,
I'll kill you.
So,
yeah,
they do all that.
Briggs and the other
Chinese guy are on the roof,
and they go,
that Chinese guy goes running
and jumps from one roof to the other.
And then Martin's still hauling ass,
and he runs and tries to clear it.
But he clears it, but he lands wrong.
And then he kind of, with a little tiles, little ceramic tiles or whatever, start to shift.
And then he falls.
And then he's hanging on to the corner.
He's already tired from running.
So he can't pull himself up.
And this is when Raj comes riding up on the bike.
And then they're like, what are you doing up there?
And he goes, come on.
You get something for me to fall in.
So they're running around trying to look at stuff.
And they end up just finding like a guy.
all right another nitpick this is a busy little market stream and then luckily there was this big dumpster
right there out in the open it wasn't like it was in an alley but they brought over this dumpster and he goes
can you find anything smaller and chris rock is yelling fall ass first it breaks the fall
so and he goes here fall on three one two and he's like fuck it and he just lets go and ah he falls into the garbage
can and that's when they he climbs
out and then they grab that other dude
why'd you run? You guys
came out with guns and then
he goes, he goes, I'm a waiter at the
restaurant and they're like, well, what's
today special? What's
today? He was Wednesday
that he just kind of ran to the menu
and then they go, ah, so they uncuff him and then he
turns around and goes, I'm going to sue you.
Johnny Cochran. He fights
for me.
So he ends up leaving.
they were like fuck
and then well the other guy got away
so that guy that got away was walking
on the roof
thinking he's getting away and then
fucking here comes jet lay just fucking gives him
a side kick to the chest
he falls down
and then he just got what was that
he was holding some kind of
it looked like
a rosary beads or something or prayer beads
but it was really like
he would pull it extended
and it's like a wire
yeah because
like he I love how he's just holding it
moving those little balls on a necklace
and he's got one hand behind his back
and he's just walking hella slow
I liked I always liked
his outfits
especially I mean he does the stuff
you like when Bruce Lee wore that type of shit
and fucking would just kick ass
so he's standing there looking at
and that guy tries to run
and he was just giving in them kicks
left and right
gave him a couple chops
and then he got that necklace or whatever
whatever was wrapped it around that guy's neck and just basically strangled him.
So he's dead and
Again, that was the first time I saw Jetley in action
Sitting in the theater was me and my two younger brothers. We were sitting in the theater all of us were like who's he?
And we're like I don't know
So but that was bad ass I mean he
What he did in this movie was good enough. It was a good enough for me to go home and
Try to fucking find out more of these movies that he was
was in and I found awesome
ass fucking Chinese
fighting films. All his
old ones before he got to America
and did everything else.
But
they
go back to the police off
to the police station? No, we go
back to
Roger's house and he's having that
conversation with
I can't
remember the guy's name, the father of
the family.
and they're just
Yeah, they're basically just telling
each other how they just want the best for their kids.
And then he mentions that he tried to contact his uncle,
which this leads to how the triad find out where the family is
because his uncle is the guy that won't finish the job
unless he sees his family.
Yeah, because that's when we find out why they had
Hong's uncle
is he was an artist
because yeah he
they had mentioned that
his uncle was an artist
engraver
yeah because he was
they had pictures
of Chinese money
and he was engraving
the basically plates
to make counterfeit money
I'm an artist
but I ain't that good
especially an engraver
like fuck man
that but he had all the tools
the little microscopes
and all that to really
to really do it man that fuck
that must be hard and I'm sure there's guys out there
they know how to do it too but
so yeah that's when we find out them
uh
Raj and Hong are hanging
out talking drinking whiskey and all that
um
where did they go from here
uh I think this is when
Lorna and Riggs show up to the house
okay well how long is it one
Okay.
Ping.
Talks about Ping.
Okay.
Ping's grandson is captured.
Okay.
Hong is able to contact his uncle, but then it says that leads the triads to the Murtau's house.
So I guess he did reach out.
Got got in contact with his uncle.
And I'm sure his uncle, well, where are you?
And then that's when they found out that they were there.
because
Raj and
where were there
because they came back
to the house
to for Raj
to change his shirt
so
I think so
because then they were in the car
and that's when
Riggs was like
hey man
are you
where is it that you're
you're on the take
because of all this money
you have
and he's like no
he goes well come on man
it's me
tell me if you're doing that
and he's like no
He goes, that's not what's going on.
So when they pull up to the house, they go, well, man, it's a full house.
What is the Lamas class?
And then they go walking in.
And then they see, um, uh, was, Lorna was in there, wasn't she?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, because Lorna's, oh, that's right, because they were all there when they're eating.
So Lorna, Trish and Rianna are standing there.
The kids are already gone.
They went back to college.
So they're standing there looking like there's something going on.
And Raj is like, because Raj came and he goes, what's going on?
Who's all these cars in the house?
And then this is when the Chinese guys, that guy that Ramble blew up.
He comes out, whatever his name is.
And the other dude with long hair.
And then there's a couple of other young guys.
And then Jet Li comes walking down the stairs.
And they're looking at him.
And they said, yeah, they took the Hongs.
And they're like, fuck.
Because right when they pulled up, they saw these black cars driving away.
And then so Raj is in there looking.
And then all of a sudden,
you see a red light
and then Riggs is
pointing his little laser-sided gun
through the window at them and then he comes in
and he has his gun drones on everybody
and they're trying to tell everyone
take your gun put your guns down
because they all pull their guns on each other
and then the
hell Jetley's name
Wasing Ku
yeah I'm just Jetli is what I'm calling
him. Yeah there you are
Jet Lee told them to put their guns down
so they all start
putting their guns down and then
uh oh
what's his name
the guy that Ramble blew up
him he pulls out a switchblade
and holds it up to Lauren
his stomach and then
Riggs is like you're gonna let him do that honey
and then whoshes when everything goes
goes out wild everyone starts fighting each other
uh Raj's is fucking
fighting dude Riggs is fighting those dudes
and uh Jett Lee is just standing
there at first but then after they
started to kick everyone's ass is when he jumped in, uh, into the mix.
I love how he just comes jumping down those stairs because I think, um, Riggs was about
gonna grab that gun that was on the ground.
He, the way Jet Lee lands, his legs are like spread between his arm and then he twists
and, uh, Riggs gets thrown all over the place and then he fucking starts just going to
work on all, all these fools.
I like how calm he is when he's doing it.
Like he's, like even with the guy early.
that was like trying to throw punches and kicks and how he was just like blocking his kicks with kicks himself but the whole time he's just standing there holding on to them beads with his hand of the hand behind his back yeah man he fucking this is when i just oh my guy i was just fucking juiced watching this thing growing up as a little kid watching brucely movies and and jacky chan kung fu flicks in the theater just fucking being hyped watching this thing and here i'm sitting there hyped uh with my little brothers watching
fucking gently just kick ass.
I love this scene because
really quick they did do a wire
scene. It
doesn't look good even now.
Because when he
does, you can see him
clearly holding that wire because he
does like this like twist
kick and then jumps in the air
twist kicks both of them then comes back down
on his feet. You can clearly see
that he was holding on to the wire.
The wires to me only worked
good in Crouching Tiger
Hidden Dragon.
When Jet Lee was doing him
and Romeo must die and all the other ones,
I still love those films. I'm just
not a fan of the wire stuff.
So
I loved this
because once he was fucking kicking ass,
Riggs
and
and Raj, they pull
their guns. Jet Lee pulled
gets down really quick and then they
kind of have like the standoff because they're all pointing
guns at each other. And then
Jetli is looking at him and then he
lets go the gun
that he has and then he looks at him
and they kind of catching the
breaths and with the quickness,
I love how he just kicks
Rod, grabs Murtaugh's gun
and then just fucking, I don't know what he did, but he took
it apart.
It ended up knocking both of them out.
So he's standing there holding that
gun. Lorna comes
walking in from out of the kitchen
and then he just fucking gives her a
kicked to the dome and then she falls down.
And then they wait,
they fucking, everyone's knocked out.
They wake up and they're all tied up as
those guys are fucking
throwing, again, everyone
runs around with lighter fluid or some kind of pink
or something that starts squirting
shit all over the,
all over the house and lights it on fire.
One dude's got a big old bottle of liquor, slamming
it and then spilling it all over the place.
And then they,
they all get the hell out of there.
So all of them,
Lorna Riggs, Murtaugh, Rian, and Trish are all tied up, and the house around him is on fire.
So they're like, oh, fuck.
And then Little Pink comes running out with some scissors.
So he kind of cuts them free.
And they all get out.
Luckily, he was there still.
So they all get free.
They all kind of get out of the house.
And then they just left him there, huh?
Yeah.
They took a Rian's car.
So, yeah, because then they jump in her car and they go hauling ass,
and I assume they call for backup because everyone came.
After that, so though they go hauling ass down the road, they get on the freeway.
They get on, they're captains now, aren't they?
But I think we skipped that whole scene when they became captains.
Yeah, they are, yeah, I believe they are captains, man.
They were sergeants, and now they're captains.
Yeah, so didn't really do much of the story, but the captains now.
So anyway, so they're hauling ass down the road.
They get on the radio.
They're calling the helicopters, hey, we're looking for a black Mercedes or whatever it was.
And then they go, yeah, there's two of them.
There's one going this way and there's one going that way.
So the helicopter goes after the other one, Riggs and Martin.
Riggs and Martin.
Riggs and Mertal go chasing after the other one.
So they're hauling ass down the freeway.
they pull up next to
those houses
it's like half of the house
and then the other half is
it's like house and then
split down the middle and it's covered with plastic
Riggs crawled into that
and then tried to jump into the
into the other car right?
Yeah
okay because he crawled into that
he ran over
and then
did he jump into that
then that Chinese guy jumped in there or did the Chinese guy jump in and they start fighting?
They somehow went back into, no, he, he didn't jump into the car.
He punched through the window or something and tried to grab the driver.
And I think that's when they started like getting out of the car, getting into the house.
And then they had the fight.
He was fighting.
Riggs was fighting everybody in the back.
All right, because they were fighting in, in that little house.
was hauling ass down the road
They ended up fighting
Riggs and that dude fell out of the back
And they landed on
Was that a table?
Yeah
So they luckily the the
That strong ass plastic that was holding up the side
They held on to that
And then
That's when he was hanging on
And then
I think he knocked that Chinese guy off
because then he got run over by a bus or a car or something.
He got hit.
And Riggs is hanging on to that thing and onto the back,
sitting on top of that table as it's hauling ass down the freeway.
Luckily, there was no big cracks in the freeway because that little table would have caught a crack
dumped out of it.
So he's hanging on.
Raj is like, wah.
He's like, what the fuck?
He kind of rolls up to the side of him, gets up Riggs, and then Riggs jumps into into
the car and then they go
haul and ass and then
to um they pull up
next to uh that um
the other car that the china the guy that's
in the Mercedes
they're crashing into each other
and then
um
uh fucking
the oh yeah that that car that
it gets away and because then they're
right behind it and it's hauling ass
uh that car forces them off the
freeway
All right
Nick pick
Their car
Goes shooting off the side
Luckily there was
Constructions
Workers right there
That had a ramp
Did their car
jumps off the freeway
crashes into this office building
And they fucking just
Floor it
And
It's a movie okay
But
When they're in the building
I mean okay
The freeway
did they just throw up a building in the middle of the freeway?
Because it seems like the freeway went around that building
and then came right back straight away
because when their car jumps off the freeway into the building
and then they just fucking, the rigs just,
no, Roger's driving.
Riggs just steps on Rogers' foot and then
they go hauling ass and they're just flying through the building
crashing.
Luckily, no one got killed.
Amazingly, no one got killed.
So they come around, they get to the end of that floor they're on, and then, luckily, there's no walls on that floor.
Because they were just crashing through desks and everything.
And then they punch it and then go, crash out the other side of the building.
Luckily, I almost killed some, other than everyone that was in the building, almost killed some window washers.
And they go back onto the freeway.
Axles broke window or tires blow out.
You can clearly see that, but they go hauling ass down the road still.
That guy, that Chinese guy, still hauling ass down the road.
This part made me jump the first time I saw it.
They're coming down this ramp.
Rodging them is hot on his tail.
That Chinese dude just pulls out into a blind intersection.
And here comes this fucking, I don't know why this truck was going so fast,
but this big rig is hauling ass down the street and just,
T-bones
that car
And fucking that dude's dead
I'm sure his head blew up right on the
Fucking radiator
Of that truck
And they
Rodge and rigs
Slam on the brakes
But they're already going full speed
And I think the tires were
Oh yeah
The tires were all blown out
From when they jumped
Because they were riding the rims
And there ain't no kind of traction
When you're stepping on the brakes
Steel on cement
And they go sliding
In the back of that big rig
and that's when they get out and see that that guy's dead um where'd it go from here uh it cuts to
i believe this is when um jet lee goes to see uh he goes to that warehouse or whatever he meets
that general guy and then we come to find out the the guys that were getting on the plane earlier
in china uh those are his brother
and he was paying the general to get them out of whatever prison they were in and bringing them to America to release them to him.
Because they were in exchange and that's what they were doing with the counterfeit money.
Yeah.
To make all that money to buy back the forefathers is what they were calling them.
But at this point, we still don't know who these guys are and why they're doing this.
So, I think they killed, they killed Hong because when they bring Hong to, to see his uncle and they kind of have just a quick little, a meat, and then they're happy.
And then this is when Jet Lee, did he snap his neck?
Yeah, it's because the uncle said, put them in their new home and make, and guaranteed their safety before I finish.
and I guess Jet Lee was letting him know
he's not the one there demanding things
Yep, because yeah, he grabs Hong and it snaps his neck
And then just tells him get back to work
And the uncle's like, oh fuck man, just killed my nephew or whatever
Yeah, and just kind of leaves him there laying on the floor
Yeah, I mean, but he immediately goes back to work
Because he's wiping the tears out of his eyes
And starts chiseling away at the little plates
I mean some
We're
I think we're skipping over the Uncle Benny scene
At the dentist
Oh that's right
Because they use they use
Private Investigator
Leo gets to find out where Uncle Benny is
That's right
That's when they go there
And um
Butters, Riggs and Murtaugh and Leo, they go, they find out that Uncle Benny's got a dentist appointment.
So they go charging in there and Leo just came and just say your teeth hurt.
So get us in the door.
So basically to get the dentist away from Uncle Benny.
So while Leo's in there getting his teeth drilled and screaming.
Riggs and Roger and Butters make it into Uncle Benny's his room.
and they're just trying to talk to him,
trying to get information out where,
where are the hongs and everything?
And he's at this point,
he's like,
I ain't telling you guys shit.
But then one of them,
well,
what is this?
So they kind of,
they were going to gas him,
to give him some laughing gas to hopefully make him talk.
And they didn't know what they were doing.
He just opened,
one of them,
just opened that up,
that tank full blast.
And then it just started to fill the room
and they were all laughing around and everything.
And this is with,
all,
all four of them.
in there laughing and Riggs kind of lets it slip.
It goes, yeah, man, because your son-in-law is all funny.
And then Rodge is just laughing his ass.
Well, hey, Riggs, why are you calling him my son-in-law?
And he said, because I am.
Your baby is having my baby.
He was like, my baby's having your baby.
And he was like, oh, baby.
he was doing like the
he was doing
the sign that he you know
he's been hitting it he's like oh baby
he was humping the air
then
then they're all out
they got the information from
from Uncle Benny
and Uncle Benny
sleeping with his wife's two sisters
yeah got that information too
okay man
well good for him man
At his age, he's still out there doing it.
But he, go ahead.
No, go ahead.
I was going to say, and then he gives him the information about the forefathers and what is the word?
Yamimbi.
Yeah.
Jumping, Jiminy.
Yeah.
But they call, of course, they call the guys, the detectives that are, which they get involved later,
but they call them to ask them, what does that mean?
And it's money, currency.
well before before that they find out where they they took the hongs and then that's when they go down there and then they find out that the hong is dead and uncle bennie got killed too
so before before they got down there um they killed uncle bennie and they killed hong rest in peace uncle benny yep and then
entertaining while you were there.
And then
before that, when they were leaving the
the dentist
office fucking Raj
clocks, rigs, and he goes
falling out of the elevator. What did you do that far?
Because you didn't tell me what was going on. He started
yelling at him and then he just tells Butter. Look,
when this is all over, you, me,
and Rian, we're getting into this.
And then that's when they go down there.
I think this is when the scene went
Hong meets up with his brother, Benny's there, and they both get killed.
But they find out where they are.
So they all go, the fucking whole police force, they all come crashing in there and find out what's going on.
Yeah, so they find the plates.
They find the paper of the money that they were printing the fake money on.
So they all know what's going on.
And then Riggs and Martin are talking about what was going on.
And then they were that one Asian cop.
Hey, man, what did you say?
Yeah, because he said the forefathers.
And he was like, say that again?
Yeah, so that's when he was telling me.
Yeah, and he goes, he goes, they were talking about buying back the forefathers.
And then that's when he told him, he goes, yeah, there's these guys in China with the triads that I guess they were the forefathers.
the four big guys.
So they were saying, yeah, they were going to, he said,
they were talking about buying them back.
And he goes, yeah, there was something with,
who happy hoppery or whatever they said.
He goes, jumping, jumping, Jiminy.
And then, mimby.
Anyway, yeah, yeah, he goes, yeah, that's what he said.
And he goes, oh, that's currency.
And then they were like, okay, that's when they were said,
they were talking about buying back the forefathers.
And then he goes, all right, man, I got a hunch.
I might know where they are.
But let me go do some detective work.
Yeah, that guy was doing all the detective work.
If it wasn't for him,
and I don't think they would have found anything.
All they had to go off was jump in Jiminy and Uncle Benny
talking about sleeping with his sisters or his wife's two sisters.
So they find out where it was all going down,
somewhere on the docks.
So everyone loads up and they go down there.
okay he yeah he never got into it with Chris Rock and his daughter yet so they they go down there
The Jet Lee and his crew are there
The the Chinese general or whatever he's there and they got the forefathers and they're getting ready to do
The trade off and then they go we got all the money and they're like okay. Well, let's see it
This is all going on in Chinese your read old thing
So they give them they give them some of the money they run it through this scan
It hits all the marks to say that these bills are legit.
And that's how good that artist was.
He put all those marks that were supposed to be on those things, on the plate so they can print the money.
So they're just about to do the switcheroo, do the payoff with them.
And this is when Riggs and Riggs, Mertag and Butters show up.
Yeah.
And with the two.
Chinatown detectives.
Oh yeah, yeah, that white guy in the Chinese dude.
Yeah, I always laugh at this scene when, uh, because, uh, Riggs is just driving in
honking a horn and he has a big smile on his face.
And they come in and go, what?
And then she Jolie just like going, fuck.
And then he come in, he goes, yeah, man.
He goes, he goes, oh, man.
I don't think you want this.
He goes, this shit, no good.
Worthless.
He throws the money in the air.
And Riggs is going, he starts a loud around.
I fuck you.
Yeah.
And they all start laughing and then fucking,
does someone start shooting?
Yeah,
one of the generals guys.
He,
when they show him,
they go,
look,
man,
this money's fake and that's when they show him the paper
that they were printing on.
And then they look at it and then
that's when they had the generals guys.
The other Chinese guys
that flew over with the forefathers,
they just start opening fire.
And then there's a big ass gunfight.
Everybody goes and runs.
and hides,
rigs,
and Murta,
just shooting fools
left and right.
Yeah,
basically just shooting
Chinese guys.
Didn't matter what side
if you looked Asian,
you got shot.
Luckily that,
oh no,
did that Chinese cop get,
did he get hit?
No,
he was about to,
and then I guess
somebody,
somebody saved him.
But,
uh,
but his takes a hit,
uh,
jumping in the,
and what,
in the front of a bullet
for,
uh,
Raj.
Yeah, because when he does that, he goes down and then Rod's kind of going, you'll be all right.
And he's laying there.
And then Riggs gets into it with Jet Lee because that's when he runs.
He tries to run him over with the forklift.
And then Jetly jumps on that and then he jumps down.
Jet Lee grabs his brother and they try to run.
He gets shot, doesn't he?
Yeah, because Raj is, he's aiming for Jet Lee, but Jet Lee does one of his, basically he dodges the bullet that shows you how badass Jet Lee is.
But his brother was standing behind him.
Well, that's right.
Because when he moved, then his brother got hit.
Which he kind of took it weird, like not pain.
Like, I don't know, it just seemed like he wasn't in pain.
It was more like he's surprised he got shot.
Yeah, because he just looks at him like,
fuck and then just falls over and then jet lee's all sad looking down his brother
Raj and and Riggs are sitting there staring looking at them and they're like
already all tired and they're like man because it's not worth it man they were just
trying to convince each other he goes man it's not worth it man he goes you're about to
be a grandfather you're about to be a father let's let's just go and we'll find him
and bring him down later.
And they're like, ah, they're looking at him.
Jet Lee's standing there looking at them like he's ready to kill him.
And then they're like, ah, well, come on, man, it's not worth it.
Let's go.
Let's go.
And then that's when Riggs goes, how did he do that with the gun?
He goes, how fast?
How did he do that?
And then Raj's just goes, well, let's go ask him.
Then they walk over there.
I loved the.
music in the background. It just reminds
you those just those standoffs in the Chinese
films. Somebody banging on
gongs and drums and then
Jetli just commences to just
fucking beating the shit out of both
of them.
Because when he's fighting rigs, he's
fucking just beating the hell out of him.
He grabs his arm and pulls
it out of socket.
I was waiting for that to come in and to play
at some time in this movie.
Did he pull his arm out of socket in the third one?
Yeah.
Okay.
When the whole motorcycle thing and he fell.
Oh, that's right.
Well, I guess I would knock it out of socket.
So, yeah, he's like, ah, he's laying there with his arm hanging.
And then he's fucking over there beating this shit out of Rod.
Riggs gets up and slams his shoulder into the post to get it back in the socket.
And then he starts fighting.
And fucking Raj gets knocked out.
And then, no, he kind of gets beat up.
and then Riggs is just fucking getting the shit beating out of him.
And Raj comes up behind Jet Lee with a piece of rebar.
And just fucking shoves it into his, like into his back.
And it kind of comes out.
More on to the side and comes out of the front.
He's screaming.
And Riggs picks him up.
That fuck, that must have, well, no to hurt going through you.
But fucking picking him up by that rebar.
And he's, ah, he's screaming.
Fucking starts fucking up, Raj knocks him out.
and then
had they fall in the water
the concrete
that they were standing on
and gave way
okay so rigs is
or
fucking Raj's laying
or knocked out
rigs and Jet Lee are fighting
yes right
they were standing too close on
on the edge
and it was already falling apart
so that part collapsed
and they fell into the water
they're still fighting each other
underwater
um
One of the cars from the bad guys
fucking drove into the water.
So it was underwater flipped over.
When they were down there fighting.
All right.
Another nitpick.
And I call bullshit on this.
Other than it's dark underwater.
And I don't know if you guys ever open your eyes underwater.
You can't see shit.
Everything's fucking blurry.
But he was able to see that there was this machine gun underwater.
He reached over.
grabbed it
and I love this part
he grabs it fucking shubs it up to Jet Lee
and just fucking empties the clip
I like to look on Jetley's face
when he sees the gun
he's just like shaking his head no
and then he when he's done shooting him
like Jet Lee just he's dead
but he just has this like surprise look on his face
yeah like that old fuck look
and he's just floating there under water
the rigs tries to swim back up to the top
he gets up he's trying to climb back up
onto the dock, but the, um, cement is still all busted up.
And then it just couldn't take his weight and then he falls back under the water and that big
old piece of cement, uh, lands on top of him on his legs.
And then R, uh, Raj kind of wakes up and he's like looking around, Riggs, Rags, where are you?
And he's like, will it to me, will it to me, show me where you are.
And then he kind of realizes, I can see bubbles in the water. So he dives into the water.
to get some and then uh he's trying to pull that uh cement off of them and then they kind of do the
one two three and then they lift it up pulls out uh rigs and then they swim to the top and
rigs is just fucked up the other than he got the shit beaten out of them fucking and that cement thing
that would have scared the shit at you first of all anyway thinking that'd be the end
fucking with cement on top of you so they end up getting out and uh everything's all good
is punished.
Did they kill the
the Chinese general?
Did he get killed?
I think he got killed.
Yeah, I'm sure everyone got shot up.
So, yeah, so
we go
the next day, Raj,
I know, Murtax is at the
graveyard.
At the graveyard at his wife's grave.
I'm kind of talking about, yeah,
he's getting ready.
He loves Lorna. They're going to have a kid.
and basically you're telling her that, yeah, I'm getting married again.
So, and then we have this kind of little touching sad scene with Leo
when he's telling him about the frog.
Froggy.
That was kind of sad, too.
But then they got a page or whatever.
I don't know, they had cell phones, but no, you did have a cell phone.
Yeah, beeper.
Oh, so they said, yeah, Lorna's, and,
fucking in labor, so they all go
they go rush into the hospital.
But that was a kind of touching scene
when he was at the grave, his wife's
graves, letting her know what was going on.
Yeah, because basically
he, Riggs feels
like his wife
sent him a guardian angel,
and it's Leo.
Yeah.
So, they get to the hospital
and fucking learn a screaming,
ah, but she doesn't want to have the baby until
they get married. And they're like,
we can't do nothing here
and then fucking
they tell Leo to go find a priest or something
and he comes back with a rabbi
a Jewish guy
and he goes
he goes can you marry us and he goes
are you Jewish and are like no
and he goes well I can't do that and he goes
hey come on he goes she just wants to hear the words
and he goes are you serious and he goes
I don't have time for foolishness and he goes
no this is it and then he kind of
does a quick little ceremony
and yeah yada yada yada
yada. All right, now will you take him
and will you take her? Yes, yes, and all that.
And then, all right, you guys are married.
You may kiss the bride.
But then before
she gets taken off, Leo,
run, hold on, wait. And they're like,
what? We don't have time.
There's this older black
gentleman walking down the hall. I'd seen him
in a million. He's one of those guys. Hey, that guy,
he's been in a table.
So he's walking down the hall
holding a cup full of piss.
And he takes it away from
him and then dumps in.
He goes,
oh,
you go,
what are you doing?
It took me
all day to fill that thing.
Come back here.
So he runs over and then he goes,
here,
you got to break this.
And Riggs is like,
man,
I'm going to get piss all over my shoes.
And then no.
And then they,
fuck,
he just smashes it.
And then Marzell-Town.
Yeah.
So then Lorna goes in there and has the baby.
And then a quick,
another quick little,
uh,
uh,
uh,
uh,
lovey scene with,
um,
Riggs and,
uh,
because they're,
they're going in.
and then he goes, all right, all right, man, thanks.
And then they go in and Leo's kind of just standing in there, Riggs comes back,
hey, man, thank you, gives them a hug.
Hey, man, stick around.
All right.
And then she has a baby.
Rianne had her baby as well.
Coincidentally, same time.
Same day, same time.
So, uh, butters, uh, Riggs, Murtaugh and Leo,
fucking Murtaugh and Riggs are just beat the hell.
I think, uh, Roger was on crutches or something.
Yeah, and the rigs had a cane.
Yeah, so they were like, looking, where's Mertal?
And then they come over with this, brand new baby,
and the baby looks like he's like, fucking four months old.
No, that's movies.
Especially when there's a scene and the baby's just born.
It's like 20 pounds.
Yeah, big ass head, almost a toddler.
They come up with that baby, and then they go,
Mertal, where's Mertal?
and then they're looking at them like what and then
Chris Rockley's in butters
he goes it better not be Mertaw
then they bring it was it a little girl that they had
ah
I think so I don't remember
yeah they bring over the babies and they're all laughing
and Lorna and Riann show up
the captain shows up gives them a little
stuff from the whole force
and then they all kind of take this big
family picture are you guys all friends
no, we're family and then a nice picture.
And that's your movie.
Yep.
All right.
I know nothing of the TV show.
Is that Riggs and Mertagh again or is it someone else?
Yeah, okay.
I am halfway through season two.
It is Riggs and Mertah.
It's essentially the same story.
But they go into,
um
shit
they go into the whole
um
myrta is looking towards retirement
because he's had a heart problems
and then you get more into
um
basically a version of the plot
from uh part two
when he finds out his wife
didn't die in a car wreck
oh okay
they kind of go into more of that
um
no
explanation on how they got young again?
Oh, um,
Burthal's supposed to be like 50 something on that show.
How old is Damon Wayne?
He's like almost 60.
That's why he.
He is?
Yeah, if they was,
if they was going to do the,
uh,
he said if they was going to do another season,
he wouldn't have known,
he wouldn't have thought that he was going to come back because I
guess he has like diabetes and he's getting up there in age and he said they were
working long hours on set.
All right.
Oh, fuck. Wait.
I didn't think he was that old.
Yeah, but look at it.
Yeah.
He's in his 50s.
All right.
Demon Wings.
I know he's pushing.
He's in 50.
He's 60.
Fuck.
We're getting old, Brian.
Yes, we are.
You're one of your favorite comedians are getting old.
60 shit.
I would just watch a major.
made your pain the other day.
Well, you know you're old when the people you used to watch their kids are like in movies now and grown and...
Fuck, I didn't know you were that old.
Yeah, he said working them long hours on the lethal weapons set was kind of not good for his health because I guess he has diabetes and other things.
Yeah.
and then the other guy got fired because I guess he was causing problems on set.
I don't understand that.
I mean, you get a fucking a good job in a series.
You know that, well, I guess you didn't know.
We're going to do it to be good.
And then you fuck up or act like you're all that.
Yeah, you got some people that are just like that.
You know, they get a position like that.
He probably thought he was a star.
I don't even know who that does.
dude was. I've seen him in like one movie and it was like a it was like a Netflix movie.
I was like, oh, that's that guy. So was there any explanation and why he's not on the show
anymore if they got, uh, well, Stifler. Spoiler. Spoiler. I think they killed him off on the show.
And then just bring in. Yeah, his Murtaugh's new partner. And it's Stifler.
all right let's see what this guy's name
clank claim that's his name claim i don't know
crawford um
i guess he's in something called
killing of the two lovers
into the dark
um
he only did uh what 41 episodes of lethal weapon
how many seasons is they done
uh got canceled after three
oh shit i didn't even know that i thought it only went like two
Um, well, I'll take your word for it.
I'll check that out.
Is it on it?
It's, yeah, it's on Hulu.
It's decent.
I always just felt like, kind of like, we talked about Black Christmas.
If you haven't heard that one, go, go listen to that one.
But that newer movie didn't have to be Black Christmas.
I don't know.
Yeah, listen to that, everyone.
Go over to my network.
Skater Ness Podcast Network and then we're going to listen to, what was that show?
I get confused.
Oh, the ESP holiday edition.
All three Black Christmas films.
But all right, everyone.
A little bit of the TV show.
I'll have to check it out.
I mean, I haven't seen any of it.
Mike also said it was good.
But lethal weapon, lethal weapon, two, three, and four.
I guess we better hurry up.
So this isn't three hours.
All these movies are awesome.
guys have HBO Max. All four of them are on there.
The talks of Lethal Weapon 5, I
still don't see how it can happen.
Mel Gibson can probably still do it, but
Danny Glover is getting up there in age, so I
don't know. I'm going to say if they do it,
or Roger Murta is retired in 5.
He has to be, because right now he's 7.
Yeah, he's retired
And I'm going to say in the movie
It's, it's Riggs is
His last year. He's about to retire.
I think he's captain again
Because fucking Mel Gibson is 64.
Yeah, maybe you can make
Mertar captain.
Yeah, something.
A police chief or I don't know.
He's got a, he's captain.
He's got to put up with Riggs's shit.
Maybe
his boy is a cop
as fucking
when he was
part four
he seems kind of soft
no
Riggs's son
Oh Riggs
Yeah maybe he grew up
And became a cop or something
Yeah I can't see Nick
I can't see Nick being
Yeah
He's a little soft
He ain't built for these streets
Nope
I ain't about that police life
But
I don't
know. I mean, again, it's
still talks, a lot of rumors of this
and that. But if they do
do it, they better hurry.
Yeah. They ain't getting any younger.
And they're definitely too old for this shit.
So, yeah,
but
yeah, Mel Gibson, he's
that a checker past
with the things he said
because of the fire water. But
again,
that doesn't make you anti-Semitic.
Alcohol doesn't do that.
Anyway, yeah, man
He's still out there doing movies
We talked about Fat Man
Danny Glover
Last thing I saw him in was in Blackish
And he was funny in that
But man, he looked old
But I don't know
But Lethal Weapon
These movies are awesome
All four of them
Again,
Lethal Weapon 4 is my introduction
In Jet Lee
And we'll definitely be back with some of his films
And Romeo must die
Is definitely going to be on that list
Yes, it will.
We'll figure out some other ones.
I do want that DMX on the cradle to the grid.
I don't know.
We'll figure it out.
