This week on the program, get ready to buddy cop it up.
All right, okay, all right, okay, all right.
We're talking Lethal Weapon 3.
I'm Andrew Jupin.
Three Stooges, CD-ROM, Stephen Seda.
Eric Weapon 3.
Chris Gitz.
And we hate movies.
Hello, everyone, welcome to We Hey Movies.
Thank you for tuning in.
As always, that's right.
We're going back to Riggs and Myrta Land.
We're talking Lethal Weapon 3 from 1992.
Yes.
directed by rest in peace
Dick Donner himself
Big Dick Donner
That's right
And you know
I think you said like
Andrew you were like
Oh I think you might like
Four more
After watching this
You might be right
It stinks
It's a
The grab ass and this
Might even be more
than the grab ass and four
I'm gonna make
Excuse me sir
Four is a family film
Level of grabassery
That's at least
We're still gunning people
down, thank God. You can grab ass
in front of families now. Is that, am I
understanding this? It seems like that's what mostly families
are. If lethal weapon four has something
to say about it. Look where the culture's gotten
us. Well, that's right, the end of
four when they're like, we're family.
I throw up all over the left.
Yeah, that's sad. That's the blueprint
for all those fast and the furious movies.
I can't believe, not to go all
zoom to the end and just hit the credits,
but it's fine. We're done.
What's your final thoughts? Joe
Pesci is inside.
Denny Glover's bathroom
like hey what are you taking a shower with your family
what's going on? When I read that IMDB
trivia the Tribune trivia about
that all that shit
was added in later makes
total fucking sense. It's just like
hey what's the way to make this the most
obvious thing ever? The bathtub
scene. Well that's I mean
because you I assume
they were like well we're going to end it
here like this is going to come to the end
oh money you say are you talking
money so yeah made so much
fucking money. Really?
300 million or something like that. That is something.
Grossing movies of 1992 is the highest grossing movie
of the series. You can't beat the star Wattage.
I mean, Mel Gibson at the height of his powers.
And you know, they've got great chemistry.
Joe Pesci. They all do it. Danny Pesci.
I don't know about Joe, but here's the thing about, I don't know if I've ever fully
seen Lethal Weapon 2. I'm still...
Really? He had this mystery when we did Lethal Weapon 1 and Doe.
you thought it then too and now you've just skipped right over into three i just no no no two i mean
no i know yes i hope you watched the movie for today i did i just i have not seen little weapon
two is is two as grab assy it's more serious yes it is more serious there's like a serious thing
because fucking rink's got tom atkins getting shot yes his jurors getting fucking heroin down
to kill you in the second movie riggs does get a girlfriend who's murdered okay rudely murdered
all this fucking drug
by Joss Ackland
Oh okay
It is I really like to
Here let me get you the right
Kind of ice skates
When I murder your girl
So wait you've never actually seen
Diplomatic Immunity
I mean you've told me about it
Every week since I've known you
It's osmosis at this point
It's a cultural touchstone
He knows what it is
That's what our relationship is
I mean there's a small chance
In the mid-90s that I watched it on VHS
I totally forgot
But if I have
you did, I've totally forgot the loud. It's worth a spin. Yeah, but because the first two are like
actual movies and this becomes sitcom grab ass. This is like the beginning of the, like to me,
the other two are four stars. This one's a three. And that you are starting to mix in the family
elements that make for a complete disaster. Correct. But like you still, I mean, you have a pretty
vicious villain, I think. Um, like the idea of what he's doing and,
Like, you needed a bigger star, I think.
This guy is a nobody.
All I know about this villain, I watched the movie yesterday,
all I know about this villain, he likes hockey.
Like hockey.
I don't think that's enough to kill someone, okay?
This guy likes to be in threes.
He's also the villain in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Yes, he is.
Part three.
Ooh, that's.
With a fancy hat.
She has no power.
Yeah, he's still nobody.
There's a whole list of people.
of people that had passed on this movie
that sounded way more interesting
including De Niro, Nicholson.
Stuart Wilson. I think the issue
is that like, yeah, I wonder
if anybody, like, if you had even got,
if De Niro or anybody had said yes
to this. Sure. Like, does anybody
like actually, does Gibson allow that that he's going to be
like, good question, challenge like that?
I mean, that's what would make the fucking film interesting.
Yes, Jack Nicholson, Gene Hackman, Al Pacino, James Kahn, Alec Baldwin, John Travolta, and Michael
Keith. Okay, I'll tell you. Yeah, okay, this is exactly a problem. Those are guys who absolutely
are not going to do this. None of them. None of them. They knew that, I guarantee you.
Because, like, yeah, you don't need to get Stuart Wilson. You could get like a Tom Noonan.
You could get somebody with a little, like, character, a little charm to them. If we're going to stay in
a last action hero, get Charlie Day.
dancing here. Now we're having a good time.
Sure. Class up to join.
That's a good idea. Someone who's got a face.
And this is a British, they were like, ooh, that guy might be a little too much.
Here's another, here's a British guy no one knows.
Yes.
To play an American LAPD cop.
But I love, I do like the idea of like there is this, that we have to go after an ex
cop who is just like raiding the fucking, what's it called there, the evidence on
locker.
Yeah, the locker.
It's a gun plot, basically.
And, like, he's become an arms dealer.
He's fucking killing guys and putting them in a foundation of his houses.
James Conn.
I think those are cool things.
James Conn.
Jimmy Khan.
James Kahn would never have said yes to it.
No, but I just don't buy it.
You have the best.
Wait, the programs, James Kahn is the program to lethal weapon three?
I don't think so.
You have the best chance with James Kahn because for as legendary as he was, he's not,
especially when like 92 yeah he wasn't at like a nicholson level
exactly he's got a little scottie his son's got to eat dinner that night i think he's
doing fine at that but like something like the program i can see james conby like i'm the old
coach yeah it fits this i'm going up against mel gibson i'm getting fucking killed by mel Gibson
sure but it would be cool kind of reprisal of thief in a way he's gun i am not the one
telling you this shouldn't happen i just don't believe it would have had they would not have
That's fair, but what if a sorcerer allowed it?
Sure, great.
Would you be into it?
Well, because here's the thing, Stuart Wilson.
And I mean, like, you know, he's a totally fine character actor.
He's great in The Rock for a minute.
Frank.
Oh, yeah.
General, watch him a call on here, Frank.
He definitely has his moments, but I just don't think he's not big enough to anchor this
fucking movie.
Because also, since he's not big enough, the movie itself, which is like a little kid,
forgets about it.
You know what I mean?
Like, if it was De Niro, if it was, if it was, if it was con,
like the movie would have to pay attention to him
but because it's just this lower
wrung dude it's like well I don't know
what if the sex seat is 20 minutes long
you know what about what's Leo
because Leo gets wasn't even in the movie
until like screenplay like 59
like a little chihuahua he comes in
and distracts your attention
we're trying to find the movie and here he is
chirp and chirp and that's how you make it
sense fucking I mean
and this calculus worked by the way
they were like let's make
as much like number two
as possible without all
the sad stuff
the lady falls in love with and then gets
killed we can't have that
she's got to survive this time
there's more fish in the sea and yes
I know she was drowned in the last
movies I mean I do think
they're like how do we make a happy version
like a happier version of two
and this is kind of what that is
but the problem is
one of the biggest problems with this movie
and it played better for me this afternoon
than it did the last time I saw it which was I couldn't even tell you
there's fun stuff here but
the romance between Riggs and
Renee Rousseau's character is completely
unearned yep they have the fuck sash
in the middle of the movie and then two scenes later he's like
yeah me girlfriend and I'm like
the fuck are you talking about this was a Dick Donner
rewrite like he wanted this character to be a woman
because apparently was like he's meeting
his match. And he fucks a guy in the
original. He rams a guy's
ass and it was awesome. It was hot as fuck.
But then Richard Donner was like, I don't think
American audiences are ready for that yet.
And changed the character to a woman.
But your kids are going to love it. There's supposed to be
another character that was
basically exactly like Riggs. And I'm wondering if
part of that Billy the Kid, kid
kid is part of that.
Oh, Billy the Dead Meat.
Yeah. So it's like, that is the window
dressing of what this character used to be and the
rest of it is now his love.
That kid won a contest.
I don't know where he's not an actor.
He wrote into Nintendo Power and he won.
I think the contest was guess the plot,
like come up with the plot of this movie
and you can have a walk-on roll and you'll get murdered immediately.
Here's a question.
We'll start at the beginning.
Let's do it.
I didn't see part, again, my ignorance of part two.
Yeah.
Does this part two also have a James Bond opening?
Because this opening kind of is wild.
It's sort of, you do have title sequence.
The first, number two
opens mid-chaise scene.
Oh, no, that's right.
Oh, that's right.
The two of them are like in the thick of it.
Yes, the first one's obviously
it's the Christmas music.
We're just all these great aerial shots of LA.
But you're right.
This is totally a bond intro.
You're seeing fire.
You're seeing Big Dick Donner's name come up.
You're way for the bays.
You credited late period sting
singing God knows what.
They would never let sting
within a fucking country mile
of doing a bomb song.
I'll tell you that right now.
Well, I'll do lethal weapon.
suppose. Dude, the music in this movie is fucking abysmal, the closing tune. Elton John
featuring Eric Clapton, get fucked. But I do appreciate those moments in the score where it's
like, we're noodling guitar. Oh, Riggs is so crazy. Let's noodle the guitar. It's guitar and
saxophone. It's, you know what? There's a duo on screen and in your ears. But it's this whole
credit sequence, the fire is burning. You don't know what the fire is representing yet. Just one guy.
Oh, God.
You pull back
And that fire
That fire is a three
It's a three
It's letting you know
That it's a third lethal weapon film
And because it's an action movie
Get this guys
What if
The three exploded
Oh I like that
Damn does that three ever explode
Now here's my real question though
Why did they shoot this movie
Before Mel Gibson
Even filmed the Road Warrior?
Why? What do you mean?
What I mean is...
No, no, no. For some reason, in this movie,
his Australian accent,
which is more or less dormantish
in the other two movies,
is running rough shot throughout this movie.
Maybe he had like his father with him
that weekend or something.
I don't know if someone from home
that was influencing the accent
because he has no handle
on an American accent in this movie at all.
It's really bad.
It's more Australia than he's ever been.
This is a great segue to mention to people
that Mad Max 2
The Road Warrior
is our Patreon
episode this month
Hell yeah
Of course you are
Deep in the thick
of it now
in Melmay
No we're not
No no no no no no
Melmae
Melmaic
I don't have to go to Mel Mac
than Mel Bay
I eat a cat
Yeah no no
Just these two Mel movies
We apologize for him
It's more
We don't let people like you
On Melmack
If you get my drift
Yo
What is that a silent J?
What are you?
J.
Walk the fuck out of here.
No Polack's on Melmac.
Probably.
Ouch.
It's harmful.
But yeah, so this is the beginning is so, I mean, it tells you everything you need to know.
Like, when Mel Gibson used to be like, I want to die crazy.
And it was crying and hold it on to a gun and all that stuff.
Still does.
But now he's like a baby.
He's like, ooh, there's a bomb in there.
Let's go in there and look at the bomb.
This is, this is, this is ridiculous.
I was thinking about the
Critics character and his friend
Jay Sherman's friend
that's the Australian actor
because it kept on leaching in
it's so ridiculous though
because like yeah
part two
they're in the middle of something
and like it's probably something
that's their responsibility
the chase scene right
this is like
you just heard something over the radio
that's like Riggs is like
we're homicide
what are we doing nobody's dead here
and then the guy is like
Why is homicide here?
And he's like, no, no, no, no.
This goes beyond hot shot detective, whatever.
This is just stupid.
This is irresponsible.
But, I mean, they are allowing.
I mean, up until this moment, and even this doesn't really matter ultimately, they love
these boys.
They do.
The chief might put on a tough face.
He fucking loves these two.
The chief, there's another character that he's completely fucking forgotten about by the
end of this one.
I love that actor, by the way.
Hell you.
Dick Donner's cousin.
Kayhan, but
Steve Kayhan.
He's so authentic.
It's like a,
like a Safty brothers.
The guy on the street got chuffed in.
The goblins that the Safty's
get in their movies.
This is an Irish goblin of some sort.
I enjoy his presence.
Irish goblins are leprechauns.
The squad room applauds them no less than twice of this movie.
Yes.
That started in the second one.
That started in the second one.
Okay.
That like they are now the stars.
But it does also, like, all the things you're talking about how they changed it to be more like the second one.
It speaks to like what people wanted.
They want more rigs and Murtaugh and Riggs.
And that's all you get.
They have undeniable chemistry and it's fun to watch.
And by the way, this building explodes at the start because, hey, Orlando is blowing up their city hall anyway.
So we're to use it.
Oh, is that one?
Oh, that's funny.
And it's pretty smart to double Florida for California in this scenario.
So they go into a building.
Like, to me, this is Mel Gibson just, or Riggs just being, well, yeah, I own this
fucking place.
Yes.
I have, I have caused so much destruction and they have allowed me to do whatever.
Fuck it.
I'm going to go in there and I'm going to do the bomb and save a cat.
It's so funny because it's like, Danny Glover is like, do you know how to defuse this bomb?
Oh, no, I don't.
Well, then stop working on it.
For the bomb fucking squad, you ass.
And get a haircut.
And get a haircut.
They're on the way.
The bomb squad's on the way.
I've got eight days to retirement, but let's cut the red wire and see what happens.
He's got touched, you know, he's, he, he's, if I was going through the life that
Martin Riggs has gone through, I'd also kind of think that I couldn't get fucking touch.
Wait, he's got touched.
I do like all the people he's been fucking, no, not the molesting.
I know where you're going.
Yeah.
Wait, you didn't even let me get it out.
No, we all know.
I was waiting.
I was waiting politely for you to finish like an altar boy.
Yeah, the squad rooms clapper for you know, dude.
Golf clap.
Golf clap.
Eric made his molestant joke.
Wow, just let it happen, Chris, let it wash over you.
I think, though, the stupider person in this-
Let it happen.
What about it a Catholic church?
God Almighty, enough.
Mertaw should just walk away.
Take a note from the Lord humongous and just walk away.
Absolutely.
I do like so.
He goes down there, and of course, he fucks it up royally.
sure does
it clips the wrong wire
grab the cat
save the cat
of course
the famous book
about screenwriting
right yes
the famous book
about screenwriting
by the worst
weird writer ever
yeah
one of the weirdest
guys in the world
Blake Snyder
is that his name
I'm forgetting
quick question
is save the cat
a reference
to lethal weapon
three or no
it's something
it's a
alien's
oh yes
it's like
you say
that's how you
hey good sympathy
for your
characters
by a saved the cat. Exactly.
Oh, that's dumb. Yeah, and he just made a book about all those.
But anyway, wasn't the guy that wrote blank check? Am I wrong?
It is. It is. It's a guy who broke blank check. It is.
Oh, interesting. He's dulling out advice.
He's the guy who's throwing out the advice.
What I love about this is they get to the thing explodes.
And what is left from the rubble? Just a glowing Coca-Cola science.
Yep. I, I, you know what? Great job, guys.
Well, it's amazing. Derek's point. So this is an Orlando.
Make your money.
This is in Orlando.
They're blown up to City Hall anyway.
Apparently, they're like live broadcast this.
If you were to Orlando at the time, you could watch this live, blow it up.
The Coca-Cola side, which is hilarious, is actually covering the new city hall that they were unveiling the next day.
So basically, it was like, we can't have the same building right behind it.
So Coca-Cola sign.
And the mayor of Orlando at the time is the cop that goes,
good job
or whatever
so the good job boys
Bravo
go walk on roll
maybe he was the one
that won the contest
and these demolition experts
themselves are lethal weapon
there's a later sequence
where like he
riggs meets the bomb squad
guy in the bathroom
and apparently refers to him
as Becker
but in the last movie
his name was Jarvis
so the trivia is just like
I guess his name is Jarvis
Becker or Becker Jarvis
and it's the same
fellow the same actor
weird yes it's very bizarre
well the guy who operates the hamburger
stand in this movie is in the other
two movies playing different dudes when I
watched Danny Glover start to make
like what am I doing right what happened
to the movie where is the fucking crooked
where the hall put he's just going to make me
a hamburger right now fucking matter
speaking of the multiple actors playing
multiple parts when only Thorson
is mercenary in this and mercenary
in the first movie that's true
And that first personary definitely gets murdered
if I remember right. So this is a different
It's a response. It is. It's a response.
So we're upping the ante now. It's not
He is so old for this shit. He's going to retire.
And like that's that's kind of
Which is actually a decent idea of this movie.
And how old was he at this time? Probably like 45 years old.
Yeah, probably not much yet.
I mean it also. I'm retiring.
It would also make sense for this movie
if you're thinking of this as a trilogy.
The last one ends with like him
with Danny Glover being
come on Riggs you got to survive
Ricks come on like he gets hit really bad
it would be good if this ends with
Riggs doing that to Mertau
for like
you're supposed to retire come on man you got to
fucking survive
didn't Shane Black or someone want to kill
Ray wasn't this supposed to be a thing
even the ending of two it's like he might be dead
I'm telling you like all the storytelling
went out the window because they're like
I guess they had some like early
test screening I bet you and they're like
where's Leo gets
What the fuck? Where is he?
This becomes a sitcom.
It's 100% of sitcom
and it feels so alien for them
to fight this guy. And like a sitcom
if you change anything
they flip the fuck out.
Exactly. At the end of every lethal weapon
they should be back in the house with Marge and
Homer and all.
Every little love movie, it should be fucking
Danny Glover try to take a bath and everyone
comes in and looks at it. Sure.
That could be, that's like something.
I will say at least in this one,
Trish has the common decency
before the children walk in with the cake
to put a fucking towel over his cock.
She puts like the big wash cloth.
Oh, there you go.
Like, I'm going to cover your father's genitals.
You come in. I'm going to go in
and then I'll give you the signal when it's okay.
After I've covered your father's genitals.
Newhouse rules.
When dad's taking a, there might be a bomb in here.
Remember the toilet incident.
How could you forget?
Also, how?
If I'm Daddy Glover, I am dragging an iron chair
up to the fucking door and locking
just to the bathtub.
the bathroom because like no way
no one's coming in here I want to fucking relax
so the gag is they both just go
oops and then like cut to
they are demoted they are beat cops now
walking the streets dude fucking Mel Gibson
having to put his shitty mullet
in this ponytail I was so excited
because I was like oh so that's like the mullet
from the first scene and then he has to get a cut
because he's a beat cop no and then he reveals
this disgusting point well it might be kind of sexy
you could play with it while you're neck in him
It's just unfortunate that by the time they got around to Lethal Weapon 4, he was just so far up his own ass that it was like, no, I'm just going to have a Mel Gibson haircut in this movie.
Like, he ditched the fucking mullet and that's the character.
The character is the mullet.
The mullet is the character.
I love it guys, not a high and tight.
I respect this fucking haircut because you know what?
It's just full sex.
Lions made.
You just let it go like that.
The ponytail's disgusting.
Of course it is.
but and like people like literally the fucking the the the rookie is like playing with it
would you just do that to the guy who's like killed a hundred people this week
I would not be doing that you might be a hundred and one you could be the person
anyway so they they go out they are bored as shit to the point that they're
grab ass and about uh Murtaugh's girdle and they see a Jay Walker don't they
oh you yeah oh quick better harass this by the way this is a California thing California
listeners are like, of course they should murder
that man for the daring to
jaywalk. When I was in L.A. a few years
ago, I jaywalked.
And they got you. Police cruiser comes up.
Yes. Well, they didn't actually
get out and harass me like
just like Riggs and Murta. Down the window and
no, they put on the loudspeak, you're not
supposed to, you're not supposed to fuck a J-Walk.
You got the P.A. Huh?
I did. L.A. P.D. Breathing
down my neck whenever we go out there.
Wow. I'm a notorious J.
Walker. I'll just do you. Why wouldn't you? Cross walks are for chunks. That's the thing is in New York. You're told to do it out there. You're told not to do it. I can't. Can I tell you though, unless it's like a small street like downtown, I'm not putting my life in my own hands like that. Absolutely not. I'm too risk. No, no, no. Listen, I live, you guys know, I'm like, I'm right near, you know, Broadway, the big. Broadway Avenue, New York City. Sixth Avenue. Widows Peak they call it. Dude, you watch people just cross.
fucking four lanes of traffic
like nothing. Yeah.
No thanks. No, I know
I drive in the city. I know the way others
drive in the city. Absolutely not. Keep your
eyes peeled when you're driving. Yeah, you're going to
move, man. No, no, no, no. I'm not saying I'm dodging
Jaywalkers. I'm saying I know how
dipshits drive and I'm not going
to jaywalk with the assholes
in this town driving such as they do.
Yeah, well, they can hit me. And the cops
can arrest me in Los Angeles. And I
honestly think that is,
you know, he's not talking about it as much.
But he honestly still think Riggs is just trying to kill himself.
This all seems like stuff.
It's just like low key.
Maybe I died doing this.
I mean, he's pulling a gun on a Jay Walker, which you wouldn't think that would have
probably gotten him, you know, no, he's not fired, but maybe another reprimand, if not for
the chase that ensues immediately.
He should be fired, right?
Because he gets demoted to the speak, the patrolman.
And then he takes his gun out.
He's started his scene.
he does not belong on the force.
But Eric, I'm sorry.
It was a joke.
Say you're going to blow his head off.
The sad part is I love their banter.
So I'm like, okay, let this guy kill people.
A cop should not, specifically in Los Angeles,
joke around by taking their guns out.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
That's not a fun joke.
By the way, Mary Ellen Traynor should be stripped of all fucking,
any sort of indication this woman ever had.
Dude, as a psychiatrist for this place, no way.
What is she doing all day?
What is, what are they paying her for?
She comes in for gay jokes and then leaves.
That's basically her day.
She's got one of those big New York Times
crossword books, I think.
And she's just making her way through that.
This guy is fucking diffusing bombs,
pulling guns on Jaywalkers,
and he's walking around with a shield.
This guy is detonating bombs.
He's diffusing shit.
But remember, he's a goddamn hero cop.
Because what's this? An armored car
robbery a-a-hypnotic
going on right next to them?
Right in front of me?
holy good god i do love that multiple times in this franchise these motherfuckers are just stumbling upon
huge crimes but that's just life in any big city in this country oh my god you walk down the street
there's 10 000 crimes the life the life of an lapd officer you just walk out it's like crime here
well they're right there first if not you just shoot and then just lay something down you're like
well it was a crime then hopefully you know that if they get what they like execution here execution
there execution there i like the movie so like uh the j walker goes the way they
Pull it. This guy is fearing for his life that these guys are laughing. And then Mel was like, hold on. I think that's tough guy character actor, Mark Pellegrino. Let's keep an eye on. Let's keep an eye on him. I think something's going on. Hold on. He's always playing a nasty fella.
Oh, he's young. So he's probably got to go. He's probably a henchman. I can see it. He's probably a henchman. Absolutely total henchman status here. It's kind of a great, the dude coming out of.
the bank's like, you forgot to sign the form. Hey, what happened to the normal guy? And like,
deuce chill of the century with this fucking armored car heist here, the actual armored car pulling.
Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Oh, he's sick. Then who the hell is that? Uh-oh. Better shoot this guy.
Dude, yeah, they shoot that bank guy? That guy didn't do nothing. I just imagine, like,
Robert De Niro's character and he, like, looking at this and be like, all wrong. This is disgusting.
This is, no, my guys would never do this.
Tom Seisbore would never do this.
McCauley wouldn't fucking hire dudes like this, man.
I mean, this is what McCauley stumps out of the screening of a lethal weapon three.
I would kill for a Seismore in this in the villain.
Oh, please.
Oh, man, he'd be great.
I'm like screaming for anyone with this mustache ponytail, man, which we'll get to.
So let me understand this.
You didn't get the other armored car guys killed.
You didn't take them off the map.
You know, what do you wane grow?
Are you wane growing me?
Yeah.
You better not be.
fucking Waingrove. Don't you fucking do it to me?
The dark night protocol you're supposed
to shoot each guy. Come on.
Just nodded each other.
You know, put on the hockey mask
and then you nodded. And then they shot the
other guy, because what does
it matter anyway?
Your favorite fucking Pacino
delivery of that movie.
Yeah, so it sets off a big chase here.
Mel is
hatched to,
hitched rather, to the back of the
fake armored car or the criminal armored car.
And meanwhile, poor Mertau is catching a ride with the hornyest armored car driver that's ever been in movie this lady.
Dolores.
Dolores is ready to fucking suck this dude off while she's driving.
She's going to suck his dick.
No problem.
No problem there.
But she says while she's driving this armored car after the other armored car, she's Dolores the road warrior.
The monster road warriors on your ass.
This is a perfect segue to say that Mad Max 2.
Road Warrior is our episode on this.
a little bit of a fucking road warrior chase scene
on this highway with these armored cars.
It's fun. It's a fun
cold opening. I think they should
have started here. This movie
hell yeah, first of all, most definitely.
I mean, this movie has multiple good
car chases in it, which is nice.
It's Dick Donner, you know, he knows what's up.
Yeah, it's a fun car chase.
Yeah, Dolores, I like her. She's like,
ooh, you want some dynamite?
Like, just fucking flirting with him.
Is she anybody?
I'm looking up right now. She's just a,
a TV actress, you know,
that, you know,
yeah, and Broadway, apparently.
She's been, oh, so yeah, you know,
whatever, big high-speed chase here,
a lot of, you know,
rigs hanging on for dear life.
Finally, it ends out with Mark Pellegrino
going through the windshield.
Yes.
Riggs handcuffs him to, like,
the truck part of the, you know,
the grill or whatever.
Got better fucking punch this handcuffed dude
in the face before you leave.
Oh, absolutely.
the back to bed like you're he's handcuffed
where is he going well that's LAPD they tell you you have to do that
yeah also how is how is he going to get free so you can shoot him
unless he can say I was hit by a cop that's true while
while arrested so he gets right out you can blow his head right off
and also the other guy got scoffrey
got pushed out of the armor car
he did not get arrested because he is going to be going to work very soon
That guy punches out in the best.
I think it might be the best death of the punchers, honestly.
So here we get some of the Murtaugh home life here.
And this is, as much as I love the Murtaugh family,
I love this representation in big Hollywood movies.
The allowing rigs to do the pop-in is what makes it the sitcom.
Because what are we doing on sitcoms?
We're always, yeah, we're cramering.
We're fucking step-by-stepping.
The neighbor is always just carte blanche.
to open my fucking door whenever.
Get out of you.
We don't see Riggs' house
for like an hour and 40 minutes in.
And I'm like, oh, yeah, that's right.
He does have a dog.
You know what I mean?
The thing is like Mertog's got that big family.
They're always in and out the door.
Anyway, if there's any argument to start
busting into your friend's house,
I guess it's.
But Leo, Leo Gets has walk-in privileges.
Well, Leo Gets is the realtor.
He's got to show the place.
Trying to sell the property.
Can I just also objection, Your Honor,
because what we see.
earlier, I think
as Gibson's coming into the house
it's his, it's
Murta's youngest son, Kevin, or is it
Kev, or did I make that up, or is it?
I thought it was Brian? It might be... Nick?
Oh, no, I think it's Nick, actually.
Word, Nick. Let's go
through every... Yeah, word Nick.
Let's go through every
regular name.
But so, like, Nick has a friend
named Daryl, and he's...
It's like just straight out of boys from the hood.
Like, the kids are in the car. They're trying
to seduce him into the gang life.
it's like seven
eight months after the LA riots
you've got enough in this movie
you don't need any of this shit
you don't need zero of it they think
they have to say something because 60
minutes was spouting off every night
I'm going to go back to my original argument
what did you do in the second one you talked about
apartheid quite a lot in that second one
you have to have something to
pick at here something has to be
important but then it's just the gangs that they're after because it can't be the gangs and
Stuart Wilson well no I mean I don't know that I agree and they're working with the reverse
vampires or they need to they need to just they need to illustrate how integral the gangs are
to this operation you don't really understand no construction well villainous group
very well none of this comes together but I don't think it's the fault of the kid
potentially being seduced by the gang I think that's it's a completely fine thing because
It's like, we're running guns.
Where are the guns going?
Well, we're to understand there's this one guy and he's somehow getting it to the game.
The middle part of this is what doesn't make any sense.
Tyrone to the gang, I don't quite understand.
Tyrone, that dude, yes.
That guy is the part that they didn't give a shit about.
Unless, you know, racist brain for a minute, he's black, they're black.
That's literally it.
It's just, give me.
All right, that's fine.
But that's, it's still a problem in the movie.
I mean, you don't understand the real connection.
You need a scene where Tyrone's talking to these dudes or something,
and it's like, much like the shredder building the foot empire.
You know what I mean?
Rally those troops, give a speech to them, do a parlor scene with them.
We do get a scene with Jack Travis, our villain, and Tyrone.
But I actually want that longer.
I want that more fleshed out.
And if we had better actors in both roles, not that they're bad at all,
but if you had like a big presence, like you had a De Niro or a con.
Wesley Snipes is Tyrone.
Now you've got a movie.
That's something.
That's something.
Anyone, I'll take a Mario Van Peebles here.
I love a Mario Van Peebles.
I'm not picky.
You also need to hear what those dudes are saying to Nick.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
We landed on Nick.
Nick.
Right?
Because it's just like he's talking to them across the street and it's Riggs and
Murta like what's going on over there?
Yeah.
Who's Nick talking to?
Oh, oh, oh.
And like you need to have some sort of like
no you know darrell i'm not going to do that because otherwise i don't know he could just be saying
hey man we're going to the movies tomorrow you want to come with us well because because i i bet you
a lot of it also had to do after lethal weapon two i bet both their salaries was fuck their price
were fucking crazy so they're like you're paying for a post goodfellas joe yes on top of that
and rene so couldn't have been cheap she was fucking she's a bunch of this movie yeah but what's
what's her career like at this oh i guess she's just taking off
now like nine major league was her first movie i think so there was something but there was something
big pre get shorty i think right this is pre get shorty this is by like two years pretty good shorty yeah
because this is 92 and major league is so maybe she was cheap that's possible she's a throw in um but she
fucking steals it nearly to show you that like she's great in it yeah i mean i think the guy who plays tyrone
is fine he doesn't have anything to do that's part of the problem yeah after this like his next
he does a lot of tv he has two movies after this movie
flash fire with Billy Zane
and then something called Ice Planet from 2001,
which may or may not be German.
I don't know.
Some of these cast members.
Not exactly.
Maybe.
Who knows?
A guy destined for stardom.
What I mean by their price is that like,
in a lethal weapon one or two,
you would hear the scene between Nick and the king.
But since we're paying so much for them,
we have to listen to what they're saying.
We have to get back to them and what the fuck they're jawing about.
Well, because that's like, you know, Mr. Jesuit.
Like, if you see in that first movie, you're going to hear from Bucci in that movie quite a bit.
That's how you build a villain and you develop it over.
Raj, that's a special forces tattoo.
Yes.
Like you start mythologizing them in the actual movie.
By the way, lethal weapon.
Our episode is available as well.
That's right.
We should get into whatever.
And then Joe Pesci comes and like, I'm trying to send the house.
Why are you trying to fuck me over?
You got termites.
What are you doing?
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
well this is he's the first scene we see with him is him bringing the fucking couple
into the house and mertog is in the wrong here yes do not linger around when you're showing
you know when they're showings of well do they because dude you should yes you should but you have you've
stupidly hired leo gets yeah right as your real tour which by the way right and now chris correct
me it's been a while since i've seen part two but like yeah we're rick moranising and ghostbusters
towing him. Yes, 100%.
Yeah, yeah. What is he in the, he's like a witness.
He's a witness. He was like a dirty
accountant. So yeah, it's like you're an
accountant and now all of a sudden
you're a real sort. He even says, I can do
how do you need me to do? Rick Brannis
is an accountant. You're all of a sudden he's a
fucking lawyer in that second. And they
I mean, they up him in the
fourth one. He's a lifelong friend.
And he's an official private detective
in them. Yeah, yeah. The many
lives. The Homer Simpson
like, I'm changing.
jobs this week. But what stays throughout at all,
I write, okay, all right, okay. That's the character
fucking one note that this dude has.
The bleach blonde hair, the earring, would you
fucking bet your ass? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Don't let the ear and fill
you. Yeah, don't let it. I ain't got a suck you dick. Don't let the earring fool you.
My job, my rigs. Stupid. All right, okay. All right, okay, okay, all right. Only for you.
Whatever you want Leo gets. It could be
own come.
Mel walking in during all that,
by the way,
we're kissing the whole fucking family.
I guess hello.
I know.
And it's so sitcomy,
but I found it cute and endearing,
including kissing Rod.
That's,
I think that's all cute.
It just,
if this stuff like this bugs me,
he comes in and he's obviously
been coming in like this for a long time.
Sure.
He comes in and is like,
oh,
you got a dog.
They've had the dog for fucking ever.
Like,
you know,
literally like the first day
the dog came into the house.
You might have picked out the damn dog.
We talk a little bit of Tyrone.
So Tyrone is at a construction site with Jack Travis.
Rancho Oroyo.
Part of the Mesa Verde group.
And he's talking about this deal that they're going on for the bullets.
And it's going to be a big thing and yada, yada, yada.
And he's like, let me show you something.
You know, my men, this guy, it's the other guy from the armored car.
Yes.
That's a way.
It's the whole criminal, the whole enterprise apparently.
Jack Travis was an LAPD cop that just
Like lieutenant or something that just vanished off the face of the earth
This is such an interesting like origin story
Crooked cop turned villain that they just
They don't do they throw in just barely mention it
What a cool idea
Then he only hires people getting out of jail that I guess
That he had busted or something
It's dudes that he is arrested that are then out on these like work release programs
And he's, yeah, you can come work for the Mesa Verda group and I'll give these dudes employment when they come out of prison.
Like a huge red flag like, okay, like half of the guys leaving prison works for this group.
Not see, not as much as you might think because a lot of the times there's so few places that have those programs that are like, yeah, we're willing to hire.
I guess that's fair.
You know, recently released.
It's the perfect crime.
Also, I might suggest that the LAPD has a note.
a couple other fires to put out.
They might not be keeping an eye on that one.
Or start.
Starting and in looking after more fires.
That seems to be their thing.
But it's just like,
it just feels like you're trying to be found
as a guy who left your old life
completely behind just disappeared.
I mean,
there's like a special evil to it.
That's like the way they talk about him.
Which is why I need some guy chewing the scenery.
But I don't think I'm going to go on record.
I don't think the actor's the issue.
I think the script's the issue.
If they give him more scenes,
to do in this kind of character.
I think he is perfectly capable of doing that.
It's a chicken and egg.
He's capable, but they didn't give it to him
because he's nobody, so he gets nothing to do.
If he was somebody, it would be,
it's kind of the unfair.
Again, if they had really given him a line,
maybe this guy would be
someone we know in movies right now.
That's true. That's also fair. Even this
scene is, this is the Mr. Joshua
with the cigarette on the arm scene.
Because they're like basically like, oh my, by
the way, we're to understand that
Mark Pellegrino and Smitty
decided in the midst of being in
this gang that they're doing hollow point bullet
arms sales.
Are like, you want to do an armor car thing
today? Yeah, sure, yeah. But this is the
problem with hiring all these ex-cons because
oh geez, these two guys were armored car
job guys, right? And they want to go
back to him. But he buries this
dude in cement and it's nothing. Because now
we have a relationship we can build on.
Yeah, exactly. What a great line, though. That's a good
It's kind of a nothing, because I want it to be more horrific.
You know what I mean?
Like a little bit.
It's pretty horrific.
It's a lethal weapon movie.
What the fuck do you want?
I want to linger on the body.
I want to see the oxygen.
William Freakin did not direct lethal weapon.
Dude, just give me a shot of the dried cement.
Yeah, sure.
He has a great line that freaks Tyrone out, though, where he goes,
stick around.
We can put our initials in there.
And the guy's like, good.
Okay, man.
It's fucking crazy.
ass a white motherfucker. Okay. Can you just
give me the guns? Thank you. That's all
I want. So here we go. More fucking
Martin Riggs should
be fired. No doubt about it. We go
to visit Rianne at work and wouldn't
you know it? Man. Jesus fucking Christ.
Riggs apparently only has like an
address for Rian's place of work
but does not know what Rian is doing
which leads to this kerfuffle. Wow.
What it would mean? Just a
total cock up like they pull up to this place
or what's the place that they actually pull up
to and they get out of the car or they just pull up
that oh that's what is we're fucking bickering about the parking meter
rigs does an awful job just pulling up to this curb by the way
the ass end of the fucking cars hanging out terrible you're going to get
fucking side swipe don't worry about it and just running rushing
and jumping on a guy that's you know got his arms around
rea as they're bitching about the parking thing and he's like
I'm just going to put a paper bag over it and you know merta's like no
we're good guys I'm going to find some change yes here's this dude
across the way in like a mini mall thing strangling
her, giving her a hassle.
This slow motion
shot of Mel Gibson
like jumping on
this datmulletish.
Oh, dude, do you see it flickering?
Oh, it was a film set and you're getting
her fired off of this movie.
Better beat up Steven Spielberg
for the next few minutes.
Yeah, you know what? That's how he's dressed.
This is a hipster Stevens
Spielberg. It's very believable
that, you know, this director would just
be like, yes, police officer.
Fuck you.
Yeah.
Yeah. No, no, fuck you.
No, I run this town.
He would say, no, you're fired.
He would say she's fired and that's the end.
You wouldn't insult the officer.
By the way, do you think if this guy wasn't exactly a Steven Spielberg,
Mel Gibson would have fought him or not so much?
Oh, probably not.
He would have talked to that.
You know, if he was more of a Francis Ford Coppola type.
Sure.
Well, that would be under.
Yeah, that's understandable.
You're sure it's not just Stephen Spiel.
so but they get into he gets into this fight with this director and he's doing the three stooges thing
which is cute and fun and i like these dynamics but you it's hard to balance right after seeing
someone drowned in cement this yeah this one this is the scene specifically i was like i don't
want this here no this is where you're starting to give too much air time to the children of mirtall
i need this out of here just make it a little harder like it's okay on any normal
old day I'd hit you in the face, which apparently was a
John Wayne line from
whatever. Oh, maybe a Red River.
And he does it, I forget, but
and he does it. Yeah.
And that's fine. Make it harder.
Make it like you really knock this guy's
block. Yeah. Totally. And just like
leave him get up and leave it.
Because we've, we've lost all the rough
around the edges type of stuff. Yes.
I mean, that's, this is the, I mean,
it tells you that's how much it made.
$300 million. That's a
family blockbuster. That's a movie
you can bring kids to. Absolutely.
Two things about this scene. One,
I love the
ongoing endless
horniness Rian has for Riggs.
In this scene, she's like, you
really thought I was in trouble?
Underware destroyed immediately.
And the other thing is
you know, not for nothing.
This director gets his clock clean
by Riggs and, you know,
it's like, all right, fine, Rian, we'd love to have you back.
this entire casting crew around wild applause
I think they hate the shit working for this
sure hate the shit out of them
and also this scene is a holdover from the previous
script where Rian and Riggs was the loving
they were fucking they were fucking
and that's why you have the scene
of Danny Glover in the boat drinking like he's Mr. Miyagi
Oh my God freaking out about everything
I mean it's so weird because like I get
how do you come in a buddy I mean
I think Donner didn't like it which is he was right
because in a buddy comedy, like, how do you get past?
Like, oh, I fucked your daughter.
I fucked your 19 year old dad.
Let's blame it on Rio.
Blame it on Rio.
Wait, so when were they supposed to be sleeping with each other?
Throughout this movie.
Yeah, they're having a fair.
So it was like in the original screenplay.
No one really liked it.
They rewrote it a few times.
Dick Donner was like, change all that.
It has to.
And then change like the evil Martin Riggs into a woman he can have sex with.
Get rid of this love interest with.
the daughter. It's too incestuous.
I mean, it's just, it would never work.
I mean, like, the thing that works about Renee Rousseau is that, A, she's, I forget the name of
the actress from Lethal Weapon 2, but she's much better.
And the character is much more interesting because-
It's a cool character.
Yeah, but, like, the way that we were talking about how, like, it doesn't really make
sense that they get together because it's just kind of like, here, take it.
Now we're dating.
It is, again, the fucking exactly like the second one.
What happens the second one?
is the love interest.
They have the meat cute argument in the grocery store.
Oh, right.
That explains all of the attraction.
This, they have the fucking wound off.
It's a jaw.
And that.
Yeah, the jaw, yeah, thank you.
Exactly.
Yeah.
And that is explaining all of it after that.
It's just one scene.
This whole series has been going in a certain way.
It's getting bigger and bigger.
You're not going to keep getting bigger.
If you go back to I want to kill my.
myself. Yes. Which she probably should be in this movie. I mean, yeah, probably. So she,
they, they put, it's just a fun little Rianne scene. When does Rainer, they, did they meet
Renee Russo at the station is at it basically? She just sort of shows a while from now. Yeah, she's in an
elevator and there's a, there's a quite a scene. Yeah. I mean, the only thing that matters really
before that is they, it's the gun range scene. Oh, right. Yeah. Riggs explains. We've got some
cop killer bullets on the streets
and get through Kevlar vests, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And this is what we meet, Ricky or whatever, Andy,
whatever this little guy is.
Oh, dead meat from the first second of screen time.
Right, at the gun range.
I was just writing Billy the kid because he acts like he's Billy the kid
because he shoots all this stuff.
Well, and then Riggs demonstrates to everyone
about this armor piercing round on a bulletproof vest
that was on Danny Glover and everyone gets to make fun of his girdle.
Yes, we're laughing at the girdle.
and then also this is I noted a couple times where the Aussie accent is really in the overdrive
and right here he goes because everybody's arguing about like should we have vests on the streets or whatever
and he goes vests are optional boys and gales and I was like fucking take two are you kidding me
also in the back over here that's incorrect I'm not a cop and I know that's not correct
I mean, most of the guns are not going to have the cop killers in them.
So it wouldn't be just, you know, it's not just, hey, why not?
Hey, let me just get your chest shot.
But this is where we run into Lorne Nicole.
This is Renee Russo.
She's in the elevator and rigs spies immediately that she has some IA folders in her hands,
recognizes that she's a cop.
Let's have some fun here.
He also recognizes that she's, it's Renee Russo, Nicole.
Well, yeah.
Not only is a pussy, it's cop pussy.
Hey, Rod, you got that million dollars in the Swiss bank account?
Well, you laundered it, didn't you?
No, they can't find it.
You laundered it, didn't you?
Well, I mean, it's also, I mean, dude, you don't want to start looking into this fucking boat, however we got that shit.
Again, I think I talked about this on the lethal weapon episode.
It is a shitty boat.
It couldn't have been that expensive.
But at this point, we are talking about boats.
This new one is much nice.
In mind, I mean, I don't, will insurance cover a car going through your house?
I don't know.
I don't know.
They wouldn't cover my window breaking.
I'll tell you that much.
Oh, really?
Oh, my god, these sons of bitches.
A car, a car going through your house.
That's a cop.
I don't know.
If you're a cop guy trying to get your insurance money, I feel like you're more likely to
get it.
I guess that's fair.
But yes.
So yeah, Renee Russo, they stumble out of the elevator.
He knocks her over or something, Bill Gibson.
This is kind of a bizarre.
Because we're sort of like fighting.
to get to the guy
at the same time
and he wants to see
her files too
she drops her files
oh that's right
and he takes a look
she's infernal
and affairs
yeah she's a better movie
from
oh
2003 baby
rock and roll
I in all the movies
where IA needs to be
this is where
they need to be
fucking crack it down
well you need to get
some non clown shows
working in the IA then
because
it obviously isn't cutting it
if this dude Riggs is still on the
job. I will tell you
if you were to soberly look
at this movie, it's depiction
of the LAPD is a clown show.
Yeah, it's like...
That's fine. Travis walks into this
place and with a couple of
fucking shoulder moves, murders
a guy in interrogation and gets the
fuck away with it. We're pretty much there. We're going to
happen at the same time. They're both like going. They want to see this
dude. Everyone wants to see
Billy or whatever his name
Mark Pelagrino, yeah. Mark
It is Billy. I'm confused. Is it
Billy? That's confusing because we're saying
Billy the kid at the gun rage. Why are you
putting both of those days? The kid is
straight play. The kid is Edwards. I looked
it up. His name is Chuck.
All right. Officer Chuck Edwards.
Well, save the Billy
the kid jokes. Yes. Because I'm
about to see Billy the armored
car guy. You know who Chuck
reminds me of though? I just
just remembered it.
the guy in
office space
that works with
Jennifer Aniston
at the fake restaurant
What a show of the O face.
No, no, no.
Oh, yes.
The guy's kind of got a high voice.
The flare.
You're being mean.
Look at all my, that guy.
He's got all the places of flare.
He's taken all the orders.
He's jovial.
Yes, I could definitely see that.
Also, little vibes of Lockland Monroe.
I thought the same thing,
especially when he gets murdered at the end of the school.
It sounds like an assassinated president,
but I guarantee you, Lockland Monroe was an actor.
Character actor from the 90s.
I bet you anything.
You could go up to somebody and be like, oh, hey, real quick.
Like, do like a little bit of a Jaywalking.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Be like, uh, so President Lockland Monroe, was he the 19th or 20th of the president?
And someone would guess one of those two numbers and not say option C,
you're talking about the dude from scary movie and fucking Freddie versus Jason.
He was in something recently too, was it, uh,
totally killer maybe as the father
maybe something like that sounds right
some recent horror movie he was in so anyway
our villain here swoops in
like a fucking vampire not picked up on the security
cameras like I guess they explain it he knows how to
look away at just the right moment but anyway he goes in
Mark Pellegrino's there this dude does a really nice
bye bye Billy and just murders this guy
four feet away from cops very cool and chilling and like oh my
God, look at this. He knew where all the cameras were. He knew to have hers. Oh, well, Internal Affairs has the movie on tape right now already. What is happening now is happening now. Let's just look at the real tape. And the captain's like, oh, come on. We didn't know about this. All right. Okay. Okay. All right. Oh, that guy. I know that guy. Am I in the movie? Baby.
Yeah, because Leo has to drop by and be like,
I know you've got important police work,
but also your house is infested with termites.
Is that doing it for anybody?
Does that justify me being in this movie?
I know him.
Now I'm part of the plot.
Now also under the rubric of this whole fucking place
loves these two guys.
After Jack Travis has shot the one fucking witness they got,
they go upstairs to the chief.
and they're like, Chief, what the fuck's going on with this IA stuff?
What's happening here?
Oh, I don't know, but you're reinstated.
Take your badges back.
Ditch the blues, the movies on.
They do a whole thing about like, well, IA needs to know this.
No, they don't need to know this.
Yes, they do need to know this.
They're coming in here.
They're not coming in here.
You know what?
Fuck the beginning of the movie.
Let's sweep it all under the rug.
You're all detectives again.
Which is why the cold open should have just been the armored card shows.
Sure, that's fun.
Could have connected us.
to everything. And the chief is just like
like, you know what? Fuck it.
These two people who just cost me two million
dollars. Oh yeah. Let's just get them right back
out there. So but
the one thing Leo knows about
Travis and the only thing the audience
knows about him is he loves
hockey.
Okay. Wow, what a rich character.
That's literally all you know.
He was a cop.
He disappeared. He started
an evil criminal enterprise. He loves
hockey. The end. Is he
Gambling on it, is he, you know, like, give me a little more.
If he's a dude that vanished into the night, you should not also then be accepting rinkside seats to the King's game.
In the same city, you were a cop. Go be evil in Seattle.
The original title, The Sleep was in Seattle is evil in Seattle.
That's right.
That little kid kills his mother in the beginning of it.
Evil in the Seattle.
They couldn't use it because that was the original title for Frazier at the time.
Oh, I see evil in Seattle.
The little kid kills the mother in the beginning and then Meg Ryan throws them off the skyscraper at the ending.
Fuck, that would be cool.
Don't go down there.
They won't be able to identify the body.
Oh, my God.
Not even teeth, dude.
That's shadow.
No, just that bowl cut is just kind of hanging.
That's all that's left.
Right.
You land's feet first and it's just the bowl cut and sneakers.
like a car radio antenna
just going down.
Not even the dentist.
Nobody will know how to identify the body.
I think it was a thing where it was like,
okay,
we want to have a big scene
at a public place.
When we're filming,
what's going to be around?
I guess hockey season's going to be in play.
All right.
I guess they couldn't figure out
like a Lakers situation.
It is very interesting to me
that it is a hockey game
that we're in right now.
Yeah,
it's a rare,
and maybe they're like a hockey.
Hockey had a little bit
of the spike
of the 90s.
maybe the Mighty Ducks was the same year as this so that doesn't count you know the big
mark messier guaranteeing that the Rangers would win the Stanley Cup that wasn't for another
two years I think so did sudden death even come out yet sudden death I think was also 94
okay yeah I guess I don't know we're you're starting up here because like Lakers I think like
I know they've been used in plenty of L.A. movies and like normal people see it but I think
Lakers I think celebrities yeah like I think of like this seems like more like they might be
like, you know, these are the people, you know?
I guess, you're not going to see fucking Jack Nicholson
at the box being like, go,
go, go, right? We're also trying to
hide it, right? Like, we're not like yelling
L.A. Kings necessarily, right?
No, it is weird that we don't really establish
it's the hockey game. Hockey, hockey, hockey,
hockey. It's weird that they don't say it, but you clearly see
Kings jerseys and they're playing the Toronto Maple Leafs.
They're both, according to trivia, I couldn't tell you. I don't know how
any of this works. But apparently their jerseys
are altered a little bit. So, maybe,
that's a
we didn't have
right they have
do they have a fiery three
on each one of them
there was something
some guy
typed on the internet
I wonder if it's a thing
because I had the thought
that the Leafs
looked like they were wearing
their home sweaters
at this away game
there was something
there was just slightly
different about the jerseys
maybe maybe they're just like
not the ones
they were wearing in rotation
so maybe it's
yeah I mean like hockey
they rotate out jerseys a lot
sweaters I should say
I don't I don't
really know. I didn't notice anything suspect.
I mean, they do. They clearly say
Kings and Maple Leafs on them at least.
Thank you for coming out to this.
Your L.A. Kings.
And today we have Sting
with us to sing the wonderful new
song from Neitha Weapon 3.
Just longer.
That would be way too much
if it's like we're at a big sporting thing.
And also here's Sting singing.
But I mean, it's cool. They're down on the
rank, you know, they're looking
for them. Because they're going to
fucking run on the ice later in the scene is very funny it's yeah it's funny it's too funny i mean this
could have been a cool like oh like a fugitive type of thing where is this guy right but instead it's
just like mel gibson gets on the horn like as an announcer during the game the game is on this is
televised yeah this is major sports and he's just like oh crikey there might be a madman in here
stay in your seat i'm going to arrest you and then he's walking on the ice fucking leo gets is
farting around out there. The problem
is announcing that it's the cops on
the radio. You got to be like
we found
you know, a credit car
or, oh, you won a new car.
That was this new car day
at the stadium. Yes. Yeah, that's true.
Some sort of obnoxious arena
contest. But again,
the Riggs mantra is
do the wrong thing
and still be able to get it
done. Because it's a way to flush him out and I
understand that, but clearly it doesn't
Well, it doesn't work because Leo gets, like, gets into a fight with him.
That's your problem right there.
It's hilarious, like, you little rat.
And he just shoots him.
And I'm like, ooh, is he dead?
Oh, wait, didn't they?
Because that's a great way.
Now the rest of the movie, we're doing this for Leo.
You're right.
We have to avenge our best friend.
That would be good.
That would add some, you know, Cajon.
Or even do a thing where you get shot in the heart and it's like, we don't know if he's going to pull through.
That's more likely.
Yeah.
You're not actually going to kill him up.
You're not actually going to kill him.
kill this childlike fucking
real estate agent. So they peg
him. Right. With the prostate
exactly. Instead you get Danny Glover being
like, oh, it's just a flesh wound
and I'm like, isn't every gunshot of flesh wounds?
Also, what do you know?
All right. Every wound of flesh wound.
You can do it again really quickly. Just say what you said.
Say it again. Is every wound
a flesh wound?
And what's the deal with flesh wounds?
Okay. I mean, isn't every wound
of flesh wound? I mean, not
Not all of them are fatal wounds, but they're all flesh wounds.
Hey, I have a flesh wound.
That guy had cancer.
Oh, God, damn.
Yeah, I see what you're saying.
But I mean, everyone says it.
It's not this movie's fault.
But Danny Glover is diagnosing this on the spot.
I don't know.
There's a little dude.
He just got shot.
He's shot in the arm, I guess it turns out.
He's in his mid-60s.
I don't know what's going on.
Because it's not, all they want to do is fucking get rid of them.
So they're just like, yeah, you know, that could be a dumb, dumb wound.
That could be one of these, you hear it, and it actually, you think you're okay, but two days later, you're fucking dead.
Right, that's what they tell the hospital, you have to keep them under observation for two days.
Two days, because I need to do this case without this fucking mosquito in my ear.
And Mel Gibson grabs the chart and it's like, proctal exam.
You know what, if that's the case, then I need to see it.
And he's like, all right, what do we?
Oh, hold on.
Oh, that's cold.
Oh, that's cold.
That's where they got the...
Oh, shit, I just shot all over the place.
The inspiration for the beginning of uncut gems.
I feel like there was a draft somewhere that that happened.
And Peshoe went up to Dick Donner and he was like, here's one of your deleted scenes.
I ain't doing that.
You ain't even joking about sticking something up my ass.
So it's a deleted scene.
We can still film it, but we'll delete it.
Well, Joe, it can't be a deleted.
didn't see them until we film it.
You got me there, dick. Well, Doc, you
know what they say? Whatever you want.
Leo Gets!
Oh, yeah. You're doing it. You're doing it.
Oh, you're right in the scene, dude.
That's better than what we have here. It's a better
movie. So, like, the movie
has stopped dead for that hospital
scene. It takes 20 minutes. Better keep the
movie stopped dead because this is where Danny Glover's
making those hamburgers. Yes.
And he's making hamperies. You know what,
Riggs? It's been a really long movie. Let me make
you my favorite hamburger. Now, you got
keep the fat on them. By that, I mean, you just have to
have a bunch of superfluous scenes in your movie. They're just
add flavor to your movie a little bit. Much like I'm
keeping the fat on this burger. You got to keep the fat on the movies.
Oh, wait. Are gang members almost killing your rigs?
Oh, boy. That's happening.
This is Riggs, not minding his own business. Just sit there
to your hamburger. So what if they're dealing drugs across the streets?
See, you're guys. Look, there's a possibility
or to get killed. Riggs, it's just like he can't help.
It's like Pepe Lapewue.
Like a moth to the flame.
That's him and death.
It's classic, toxic American work ethic, though.
Here's these guys trying to take a lunch break.
And this guy feels like he has to still be on the clock.
No, man.
It's hamburger time.
It's totally hamburger time.
I mean, it's usually always hamburger time for me.
But it's lunchtime.
You're off the clock right now.
Like, let that drug deal go down.
Eat your onion and shut up.
Maybe you write down the license for like, I'll get those guys.
Yeah, sure.
You know, one of those things.
You've seen.
what they're doing, get the license plate.
You know what? That's, yeah, that's
Roger's friend. Nope, not doing it.
Exactly. That's Roger's friend right there. I am not
a turncoat. And it just
they see this dude and open
fire, it's gunfire immediately. Like,
Danny Glover has not even flipped this
hamburger to the other side. No.
Immediate gunfire breaks out. We're shooting
back and forth with these dudes. They do
have the automatic weapons going off here.
And yes, Danny Glover
fires into this like tool shit.
Why is it, it's this tiny
tool shed next to this burger stand
in the middle of nowhere
that the scene is going down. It's very strange.
It's stupid. The whole like
setting is bad. Oh, maybe
that's the toilet for the burger place
because they don't have a facility. Someone's
dealing drugs out of my outhouse again.
It looks like an outhouse.
Maybe they film this scene in Florida too.
And he blows this kid away and he realizes
oh no, it's Darryl.
And I got to say, while
I don't think they need this scene
in this movie, Danny Glover.
really slays right here.
He's good.
Mother fuck, no.
And he's like pounding on this kid and screaming.
And honestly, Yomel does his party or two being like, hey man, he's fucking dead.
You know, and he's like, it was a clean shot.
They shot at you.
You'd be dead.
It was him or you, that kind of thing.
But Danny Glover.
Danny Glover is the best in this.
I mean, maybe that's because you can't break into an Australian accident.
But he really is the best performance in this movie is Danny Glover.
Absolutely.
And he should have more of the.
ending too for that reason like
would we get yeah well because
I'm thinking about the
biggest like how could you do that
to the screen play? Yes exactly
after what transpires you so yes
the kid is dead it's a great Mel line he's like
it's going to be okay it's okay it's okay it's not
okay I know that kid
him having to make the call to Trish
why make the call at all
just go home watch
married with children drink 15
beers you know what silently
the Cisco method
stuff it down.
Let me call up my family.
Hey, you know that charming young man
next door who's our son's best friend?
Well, I shot him dead.
No, no, no, no.
They'll hear about it.
Oh, he got shot.
The police shot him.
Oh, I don't know.
We were having burgers.
It's bad though, dude, because it's going to come out.
Yeah.
Did it and then you don't.
Got to answer for it then.
Oh, yeah.
You know, that's, Riggs did it.
Oh, yeah.
So more.
So just more lies on.
top of lies. I would lie. I would lie, lie, lie. There's actually, no, Trish, I should
have told you, there's another guy named Raj Murtaugh on the, on the old, uh, on the old,
uh, it's a common name. I know it's been 20 years and I never told you that, but yeah.
So you don't know if the old white guy Roger Murta did this. You're calling Trish,
like Trish, I got, how many beers we have? Oh, I'll get more. How many beers do you have that? Yeah,
I know, I'm bringing hamburgers home.
Because I'm stopping back at that shack.
Oh, yeah.
Sixer.
Look, we drove all the way out of here.
I'm getting those burgers.
I just, I'm never, I would never bring this up.
I would make you a burger burger.
They'd have to draw it out of me, indict me, my own family.
But, yes, it's a great, you know, you don't hear the call.
You just sort of watch everyone kind of react to the news.
But you know, you don't see the sun find out, though.
No, you never find out.
Which kind of sucks.
They cut to the precinct the next day.
When he finds out and they're doing.
the shaving, a nice father-son
moment. He's like, thank you for killing my friend.
Yeah, I'm so glad. Dad,
I am so glad that you killed my friend.
I'm so glad that you, that him
selling a fucking nickel bag of weed
cost him his life. I'm so
thrilled about that, dad. Oh, well, he had
a gun. He had a gun.
He was firing
an automatic weapon at you, dude.
At the kid's funeral, we'll get there.
I'm just mentioning it now.
The father is just like, thank you for
killing my son.
His father wants to give him a medal for fucking killing his son.
Just find where the guns came from.
And that's the bad guy of the movie.
What was I going to say about all this fucking nonsense, though?
I don't even remember.
It takes a while.
It's not that you would think you would go to the funeral pretty quick.
No, it takes a while.
They put him on the slab for at least three days, I think.
They put him in the fucking fridge, man.
That's right.
But this is where.
Mel has this like
argument with Renee Rousseau
and it's like you got to drop all this
confidential shit I want to help
you you know you got to tell me
what's going on right
it's basically out of the movie for a while
because he's just drinking and now
it's the Renee Rousseau Mel Gibson movie
for a little while finally
step into my orifice which is the office
which is the men's room
isn't that funny though isn't funny
when someone wants to say office
and they say orifice
you know what that's the thing is like
I'm trying to say it's not funny but I would
exactly say that. And also, my favorite character is in this restroom. It is one of the members
of the bomb squad. This is the guy I mentioned before. Becker or Jarvis or Jarvis Becker. I think it's
got to be Jarvis Becker. But I love that he's just like, everybody else has been like, oh, you beautiful
boys who blew up that building for us. We just love you so much. He's like, yeah, good job blowing up
that building. Yeah, I know it already happened. But you still fucked it up. Yes, thank you. I would have
lied through my teeth about that, too.
I was just like, no, we just went to check out the building.
We heard this ticking and creasing, so we ran out of there.
I didn't save the cat.
I didn't see anything.
We were at the Coca-Cola store behind it.
That's the world of Coke.
Like, oh, this entire building explodes.
I'm going to march into the police station and be like, you know who did that?
I did that.
No, I was, I was securing the perimeter, making sure the cats were safe.
Oh, my.
And then suddenly I heard the ticking increase.
So we ran out of there.
Oh, my God.
There's been an explosion at one Coke.
Plaza.
The most delicious
Plaza in Los Angeles.
Didn't Daryl sell out of there?
The most saintly cop
Eric Siska seems to be there too.
Just trying to help out.
I would be such a bad cop.
So, Warner gives a little bit
of backstory of what this case is.
And there was a bunch of guns, 15,000 guns
that were taken off the streets. We're scheduled to be
melted down, destroyed. They vanished
from the fucking gun shop.
And it's a thing where they suspect cops immediately
because there was like a bunch of stuff
that was supposed to be broken down
and the only things that were taken
were the crates with guns in there.
A little, yeah, and we get there through like,
we show the audience this new technology.
It's a little boring of like this gun was on this street
and it got picked up and then it went back out.
Tracing the serial numbers.
Exactly. We go through like the multiple murders
and it's nice to have, you know, police work.
Some real, yeah, some actual police looking work here.
But it feels disjointed.
because the rest of the movie's great.
Hey, wait a second.
Shouldn't you be setting something on fire?
What are you looking at a computer for?
It's adding in the other quadrants.
You had a nice cop movie going for you,
but now it's got to make $300 million.
So we put in the family stuff,
the romance stuff, the whole thing we both stir it up.
See, that's the thing is it's too much.
Eliminate one or two of those things and you got to be good thing.
Also, if you eliminated some of this stuff,
maybe it wouldn't be two hours.
Not that I feel it with this movie,
but you can have an hour and 40 minutes here.
So something, something, they go to somebody who's got a Rottweiler.
So they find out like, oh, the crime warehouse.
Yes.
Where Sven Olie Thorson is working as mercenary.
Yes.
They know that it's the place because Billy Phelps called this place a lot.
So it must be connected to something.
Let's go.
That's what René Russo finally gave him the information over.
We're going to share information now.
The guy who's running it is the guy and the X-Files, he's got
the deadly saliva that makes
their bones disintegrate. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's the main guy.
Yep.
And they're all, these three dudes,
Sven Olthorson, this dude and the other guy,
it's all like, Hoodlum number one.
Yeah, Woodlum number two.
Well, there's the one guy. So, yeah, it's Svenl Thoris.
Billy Bedlam from Conair. That's what I'm thinking of.
Yes. Oh, yes, Billy Bedlam. I was curious.
There's the one, he's definitely the number two of the
of the Jack Travis gang.
Who looks exactly like Stephen King? He's got like the glass.
Yes, yes, yes.
Evil Hal Ashby.
Yes, dude, this guy, he looks like he's wearing a disguise.
Yes.
He looks like he's on the run.
Like he looks like he looks like he looks like a dude that abducted a six-year-old girl.
He's driving a cross-country with her.
And he puts a disguise on to go and arrest up because he knows people who are looking for us.
And he's like, I'll do Stephen King cosplay and go pee at this Roy Rogers.
It's like you do it a wrestling, uh, create a character.
You kind of go too far.
It's like, well, I should have done the sunglasses and the beard.
Oh, well.
It's the sunglasses.
You don't get to have those sunglasses
unless you deal and take cocaine.
Yep.
Which Stephen King does.
So maybe he has them.
He's out of his house in Maine.
That was a...
Oh, my God.
I didn't deal shit.
It was all for my nose.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, the clickety clack.
You thought that was the typewriter.
No, that was my nose.
That's the noise it makes every time now.
I fucked it up so bad.
You ever see the salt and see?
That can happen to you.
Yeah, that's Vincent Donofrio's looking rough in that movie.
Yeah, so there's a Rottweiler
here. There's been a gag
where Riggs is eating milk bone
dog treats so he can not smoke.
Sure. That's fun. Nice. I do
like him playing with this Rottie, this cute fucking
little Rottweiler. Pretty great.
Rene Rousseau, Lourna, looking
on in horror as this dude like
gets down, he's acting like a
dog. He's seducing the dog.
He's eating biscuits with the dog.
He eats dog biscuits throughout this movie.
Sort of like the dog
food in the road warrior.
That was on trivia and I wanted to shoot someone.
see that's the thing dude
I just thought that I was like
oh yeah he ate dog food in the road
where which I watched last week
neat I didn't go to the internet
and put it in a trivia section
I will let I'll tease this
you updated the trivia section
you know the one I'm gonna get my gun out
no I've got a whopper of a trivia coming up
just coming up oh no wait for it
I'm glad you finished that word by the way because you're like
I got a whop and I was like pardon me Steve
I'm Italian I could say it
exactly it's classic rigs
like hey fellas doing illegal stuff here and it's an instant shootout wouldn't you know it
instantly these dudes are shooting at you again uh and like it's a big it's a fun action scene
rene rousseau really starts to reveal that she can kick ass oh yeah oh dude what what but
ray russo can hit someone she can fight it's a cop who can fight oh my god she's not just a
girl let her fight melkinson gives the
fuck it like he watched a pig take flight
he's just like what
what's happening a lot of these
actions do go on a little long
for my taste we do eventually
we drive out of there we got the
pickup truck with the guns in the back
we stop for the dog which is cute
we do and we go back to René Rousseau's place
bring the dog with us and everything
absolutely and she wants to take care of his
she's not going to take care of his wounds
she's like I can get you a band-aid or something
she's like he's like bleeding from the back
Oh, you got to suck the venom out.
Yes.
Well, because she's like, I grew up with four brothers.
That's always the excuse.
And it's like, unless there was a broken bone or you were, blood was gushing out,
suck it up already.
And now the only, so he's looking around her place and he's like, wow, I'm really,
A, it's really attractive.
B, I love fight.
She loves fighting.
And oh man, what is, what else do we know about the Riggs character?
He loves three stooges.
The only way this makes sense that any human being in the mid-90s would have the
Three Stoog's CD-ROM running.
It was her birthday yesterday, and her mom was like,
I don't know, she likes the Three Stooges.
She gave it to her, and she's like, oh, this sucks.
And you know what?
And kind of left it off.
You know what?
I was thinking she's got a nephew, a niece maybe.
Sure.
And she just has it for when they come over, you know, you do this.
Well, yeah, I yell at my brother.
Cricky, does this get leisure sullieri?
It's my favorite game.
Third option, you're me and you had this game.
No, fucking way.
Hold on a second.
That's like a 12 year old, right?
Well, yeah.
I was a child.
So what are the stooges getting up?
What are you going to do?
You got to help them?
They're getting up to various mishaps and whatnot.
I think they were throwing hot dogs at each other.
It's basically you would play and they're kind of the stories of three stooges
short.
It's kind of like a food fight sort of thing.
It was, I think, I don't know, I'm not saying for sure, but I think it was possibly the same
company or maybe some of the same people.
that did that Home Alone 2 video game
were the drawing of the characters
hyper-realistic is the wrong word
but they were clearly like cartoons
made to look exactly like the actors
like they were just a little more realistic
like the Genesis Ghostbusters game
with the heads are really large
to show you how they look
and the bodies are tiny and it's creepy.
That's almost exactly what this Three Stooges game was
and yeah you just kind of fucked around
as the team of Stooges.
I would like to get some big head on my tiny body.
The thing that
bum me out though as much as you know curly was great shemp erasure
wow are you fucking kidding oh really curly or bus really do we get a curly joe at all oh no
curly jo barely got three stooches shorts himself honestly i hated that guy fuck him he sucked
you were a little kid nobody this is a grown woman that is allowed by the state to live by
her own well the thing she should not be playing this game computers were new and it was like very
fascinating and it's like of course she's got a computer because she's a small
smart cop. She's smart cop for sure. You know, she's looking at files. And then at night, she plays the Stooges. There's like no furniture in this house. It's a very weirdly barren. It's the killer apartment. Yeah. I was like, are you hiding out? Like what? Get a couch so that you can fuck on it because yes, of course, we get so turned on by ripping off jaws and we're comparing scars and whatnot. Oh, yes. It's so sexy. And we get down to fucking and like, first of all, this Rottweiler is just watching. I do like the gag of, even the
Gottweiler's like, you shouldn't be having sex and like rolls over.
Aren't you on the job right now?
I don't want to see this.
Hey, isn't Danny Glover supposed to be in this movie?
Is he alive still?
Speaking of which, that's where we go next, right?
Riggs goes over to his big boat scene.
His boat drunk freak out.
I got to tell you, man, I, you know, I grew up on boats.
My parents got rid of the boats before I was of legal drinking age.
I had one boat.
Sure.
The fleet of boats.
Heat was disbanded.
No, but it was, where it was like, you know,
my mother and father had a boat, her sister.
But then the Spanish Armada sang.
Sure.
Finally.
My family had boats.
All right.
All right.
Point is, I never got to get drunk on my own boat.
I would love to just sit in a fucking marina,
drinking a beer, getting rock back and forth as the sun sets.
Really great.
Never got to do it.
Very envious of Danny Glover's boat drunkness.
Not the whole sad about it.
his life thing. I am very envious. I would love to get
ripped on a boat. Never had the pleasure. You can rent
a pontoon boat. It's easy enough. Party barge. Are we doing
that? I think we are now. We should do that. Summers right around
the moment. That's fine. We can't do that. Pirate radio, dude,
go on International Waters podcast out there. We could say whatever we want out there.
But yeah, so he's wasted and Mertagr, or Riggs is trying to like cheer him up and whatever.
and it's first of all he pulls a gun on him
during this argument which is like all right
let's fucking dial it back a little bit dude
like we are partners and even
you know Riggs is like what are you can do
shoot me like sticks his finger and like doing the whole
fucking Bugs Bunny thing or whatever
don't do that stop doing that
and then yeah and then it devolves into a shoving match
it's like get off my boat they fall into the water
he thinks that Riann slept with him
yeah because Rianne came to your trailer
Oh, no, Raj, we, we, we, we, uh, that was from the previous script.
We changed that before.
Dan, did you get today's pages?
You read enough.
You, he's got the wrong script.
And then the sheriff's department comes by and a boat.
And this is kind of funny, right?
They're in the water together.
It's like what's going on there.
Oh, we're LAPD getting to the bottom of a case.
You get, of scotch.
Yeah.
Of scotch.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, yeah, just keep, keep driving.
because we got stuff to talk about.
This is why I want a fake police badge so much.
Oh, yeah.
You can get it.
I'm just telling you it's eventually going to add in tragedy.
It'll be fun for a couple days.
It's for distance stuff, right?
It's like,
uh,
Hey,
you know,
keep driving.
Not an up close.
No,
like if I get pulled over,
I'm not going to use it.
A quick flash,
yeah.
A quick flash.
Yes.
Yeah,
it's like the gentleman today when I was waiting for my lift saying he wanted to
to pull on my hair.
What?
Oh, really?
I'm growing it out again.
I don't know.
People,
I see the thing is like,
wait,
and then this guy flashed a police bad?
No,
that's what I wish I could do.
I'm not following the insane
fucking day.
My insane fucking day.
Because people don't understand
what it's like
to walk in the shoes of an albino.
It's true.
I don't.
I don't look normal
anywhere in the world.
Eric,
I did watch powder.
Okay,
I'm not that bad.
Okay.
I'm not doing anything like that.
That guy was like an alien or something.
It's true.
No, no, no, no.
One time,
we were driving, me and my dad
and my brother were going fishing
and we were getting up to the
more boat stories. The cabin, no, no, well,
that's got nothing to do with the boat. We didn't
even get there yet. You got to the cabin and Professor
Connobe left the tape there.
Would you like to tell my childhood story?
It looks like he does.
The necronomicon was read from this
tape. You're right. That's exactly what happened.
Anyway, in lethal weapons, three. No, what's the story?
We got pulled over a right, middle of
the night, the cop comes up, and my dad had his, when you retire, you get like a retired
badge, you know? That's the one I mean. And he just went, one of the old timers, didn't even
look at the guy really. He was like, wow. And the guy was like, you got it. And I was like,
dad's amazing. That was the coolest thing I've ever seen. Above the law. Yeah. I mean,
well, I didn't know that he kidnapped those two kids. Right. One of the old guy, idiot. So there's
an airborne alert for this exact car. That albino cop just called himself.
a lieutenant. I think it's Lou.
How are they, uh, those kids doing it right back there?
One of the old times. Okay. You enjoy it.
Yeah, they're probably talking too much. I'll just buy my own business.
That old timer peeled out awfully fast. That dog wasn't moving, right? It was just, it seemed like it.
See, that is so cool. I just wish I could have something to flash to tell people don't talk to me.
You know what? Your penis is good for that.
Someone comes up to you, dude. Just start waggling that out. It is horrifically.
So, Eric, you can keep walking.
So I was waiting for my ride.
I couldn't really keep walking.
And this man was saying he wanted to play with my hair.
That is a little, you know what I'm sorry to have.
At least it's all I wanted to play with, though.
I guess it could have been my penis.
It also could be that.
There's no like revelation in this scene either.
It's just grab, like literally what, what takes, uh, Daddy Glover out of this funk is grab ass.
Yes.
The thing that you have to take away, though, is Mertaw.
mourning the fact that he murdered
this kid and he says like you ever kill
a baby like all that stuff and then
Riggs whole side of it is like
well I'm mad because your retirement
fucking up me life
yeah it's like okay cool you break up to bed
I just killed a kid that came over for Thanksgiving
three years in a row and Mel Gibson's
biggest problem is if you retire
your wife isn't going to do my
laundry I have to go back to my
beach house and not
be at your house I'm your housemate man
And don't you know that now?
It's such a one-sided thing.
And the thing that sucks is Danny Glover has to be like, you're right, my problem.
No, he sees, I'm totally sorry.
Are you right?
I didn't think how my, my retirement that is about me and my family's plans would affect you.
Yes.
From my incredible dangerous job.
Right.
The dangerous job, the accidentally murdering your friend, not your friend, your son's friend.
Yeah.
And your son potentially being interested in gangs.
Maybe it is time to leave.
You think a little bit of him, like Murtaugh is just like, oh, it was Mr.
Super Nintendo at 2 o'clock in the morning?
That's what happens.
You know what I mean?
A little bit of like a, ooh, someone had to drink the last of the soda.
It was like, it was Darrell.
Darrell drank the last.
I told you, kids, the last pizza pizza is daddies.
Now Darrell's dead.
You put two of them for two slides.
one for each slice of pizza
I didn't get to eat that night.
A man who could take a bath by himself
might not have shot Daryl.
When I said I don't want to come in here anymore,
I was right.
And now Daryl is dead.
I warned everybody months in advance.
Man, you're at the sleepover and the parent is telling
telling the friend that you,
you all have to be quiet.
Uh-huh.
But it was always...
And then he murders you six months later.
Well, because it was always the angriest dads.
It was always the most pissed-off dads that the ones that were like,
I'm trying to watch golf.
Yeah.
Or whatever.
Ed, so setting of what's going to happen right after this,
uh,
there was a scene where we see, uh,
Tyrone calling Billy Bedlam at the thing being like,
I want out of this fucking thing.
Oh,
guys are fucking it up left Jack Travis well it's first is Billy Bedlam then Jack Travis
takes it from him oh I oh right because Jack Travis hears Billy Bedlam like kind of
fucking it up business call it and then let the district manager handle this Tyrone's like I am
leaving this I like I don't want any of this and the check Travis is like Tyrone if you leave
this the only your dentist will be able to identify the body and I'm like kind of great
and then it's just like well okay I need good ammo just give me my ammo it's handled and
And this guy's totally fine at delivering that line.
But if De Niro or Tom sing their little teeth into that.
I'm sure they would have been fantastic.
But so this happened.
And then right after the boat, I think, is.
It's a funeral.
Daryl's funeral, which they lift almost directly from the end of Cooley High.
Right.
It's almost the exact fucking scene.
Is it with Boys to Men as well?
It's that song by the original band.
Okay.
Well, I mean, that that song was the 90s, man.
It was either a funeral or a prom.
It's just, you know what I mean?
One of the other.
You have both slow danced and cried horribly to that song.
Possibly in the same night.
So that morning of we had the shaving scene.
Thank you, Dad, for killing my friend.
Word, Nick.
And then, now we're at the funeral.
And the father of Darrell comes up.
Thank you for killing my son.
Just find the good.
Well, at least the mother slaps him in the face.
Yes.
Thank God.
You know what, dude?
Like, what the fuck are you doing here?
Exactly.
You should not be attending this funeral.
It's reveling in your car.
crimes like a serial killer.
Yes. I'm sorry. Again, this is Los Angeles in 1990 fucking three and this kid was gunned down
by the cops. The cop does not get to go to the fucking funeral or if he does, he gets slapped
to the face by the mother. That is how that works. You have the conversation. If you want to do
this, have the conversation. He goes to see the parents and talks to them and you have that
conversation with them. And then they, it would be insane and stupid, but they invite him to the
funeral. Tell me it's not true. Tell me.
Let's not.
Tell me you didn't gun my son down because he was making fart noises at 4 o'clock in the morning.
I told him I had to get up early the next day and he wouldn't stop.
You killed my baby for making fart noises.
He was just up at 2 a.m. playing booger man.
He also stole pizza.
Did he tell you about the pizza fever?
He didn't see your name on the pizza.
He didn't see it.
I thought all I had to do was avoid the noise.
not Daryl
the commercial says
Avoid the noid
It doesn't say anything about
Avoid the Daryl
You're terribly selfish
And he shot that kid
And then they had to change
The mascot was out
They had to change the whole campaign
Because of this
Somebody ordered the Playboy channel
At 2 o'clock of the morning
And I wanted to know who it was
That is Daryl
That is $35
I specified
At the top of the night
You can order WrestleMania
but if my cable bill has any fuck flicks on it you're going down darrell you killed my baby over
a pair of titties there were more than pair of titty sam let me tell you something there mrs darrell
there have been many nicks and they have broken many of my rules this nick has been doing pretty
well so far oh a single pair of titties in a film that was clearly titled outrageous orgies 12
I don't think so
They all enjoyed it
They all enjoyed it
Get a grip lady
I mean also the weird thing
At least you know
Where I have experienced
You know funerals and whatnot
The funeral is really for
It's for the real heads
Yes
For the close friends
The family
You know what I mean
You're not going to the cemetery
The murderer should go to the wake
At the ghost
Not only the murder
The murderer brought his family to the fucking.
Trish is there.
Trish, no, Trish should have gone with Nick.
With Nick.
Sure.
And that's what it is.
That's it.
Fucking Riggs and René Russo are also there hanging in the back.
Excuse me.
Okay, hi, hi.
Who's this kid?
Oh, sorry.
Oh, I fell in the grave.
I fell in the grave.
All right.
Okay.
I fell on the hole.
Well, we all felt really bad.
So I actually invited all of the LAPD.
They're all here.
They're all here to shoot guns into the air for your side.
Funerals, that's showboating.
You shouldn't have one.
It's annoying.
Don't try to put this on people.
It's a lot of money.
People don't realize how much money that is.
It's not worth having.
It's a scam just like anything else.
I will not have a funeral because there's no,
first of all,
no one cares about you as much as you think.
Is this a Viking funeral you're setting up?
No, I've already got the Folgers Christos can.
There you go.
Oh, okay.
Andrew's going to figure it out for me.
Oh, he's doing it.
Okay.
he's got power of attorney
Oh great
man
He can also pull the plug
But very importantly
Yes the guy says
He doesn't thank him
For murdering his son
But what he does say
Is you find the man
That put the gun in my son's hand
It's a very important thing
That the hero of this film
Should carry through through the end
Oops I don't do it
Riggs got there for it's
It's insane
Because you make all of this
It is a pretty emotional scene
It also has vibe
Speaking of Jaws funny enough
of Mrs. Kittner
slapping
Boy Shider in the face there.
And you knew about it.
All that shit, right?
Very weird,
the parallels to Jaws
in Leather weapon three.
Very odd.
But yes,
that should be,
like Riggs is on a mission
and the closest you get
is like this very next scene
where we're raiding this house
and he's got the gun
in the kid's chin.
It's kind of cool
because like now Mertah
is the one that's unhinged.
He's rigsing out.
Yes.
And he's like,
he's like,
it's a weird,
like the movie realized
it's running long so like it's like really quick like it's a montage almost yeah it's a montage
we got this guy we got that guy and then all of a sudden they have tyrone i'm like isn't he
like the underbos shouldn't that have been like a scene that should have been a scene yeah yeah
but we had to make room for the pesci saying i got a rectal exam what what what what who did that
well also we have to have a separate scene where you take down evil out hal ashby yeah because
they go to this garage yeah that's the garage they get and this is it's kind of stupid because it's
similar like oh my god she can fight
and I was like I know it happened
in the last warehouse scene but Danny Glover
wasn't there so he has to learn it now he's all
mystified and also Belkives
is just jacking up I watch and do this oh
yeah rigs didn't get to come
last time he was just watching a kind of
disbelief this one he can actually
come to and there is a bit of a crescendo
when she kills like
when she gets like three guys at once and he's like
oh yeah yeah yeah same her
times yeah she does it is this now the
mission that the younger kid is on
Chuck, whatever. No, that's coming up next.
After, yeah. After the ballgame.
It's one of, they
get one of the guys who
did the actual run, like
somebody who's been running the guns with Tyrone.
Yes. And he's the one
who's like, you know, it's Jack Travis.
Yes. I'm not, yeah, I don't know any Jack
Travis. And Riggs is like, I didn't say
his name was Jack motherfucker. And then
that's it. There's no, no more
scenes with this dude. There's not. And I mean,
to Eric's point, this is, like,
the biggest botch of this movie, which
is a really cool idea.
The captain,
a character that we,
we love,
gets kidnapped by Jack Travis,
like,
get the car captain.
In the fucking precinct parking,
like,
you're a real,
and the captain's,
you're a real piece of shit,
you know that.
It's so good.
It's awesome.
But it's,
but then we cut,
as opposed to,
like,
we should be with the captain
whilst he's kidnapped.
Absolutely.
He just cut to grab ass and like,
this is the part when they go to the police station
and Dolores shows up.
See,
that's like,
You're right.
Like, freeing a hostage, especially one that you know, is a big movement.
Totally.
And we set that up, and then the movie takes a fucking break.
It takes a break, and then we cut back to it, and then he's going to the oven and it's longer.
Then we cut away and then we cut back.
It's like, that's not how you make that movie.
Dolores drops in.
This is also where he tricks Danny Glover into trying to do like a fucking spin kick.
It's so stupid.
Meanwhile, the captain is in trouble.
Nobody knows.
I'm in trouble over here, you guys.
You stupid motherfuckers.
I'm gonna demode you
if I get hurt
What the fuck did I reinstate you for?
So in this scene
Dolores
You know
He knocks over
Danny Glover knocks over a water bottle
And the whole fucking audience
The whole police
Office claps yet again
And then Dolores shows up
Now he's hiding under a desk
And she's like
Ooh I love that man
Here's flowers for him
He is the jelly in my jelly roll
Is the jam and my jelly roll
I am to be trivia
Uh oh
Dolores says that Murta
is the jam in my jelly roll.
They're not.
While this line may have
originally been intended
as a euphemism
referencing Dolores's
buxum and curvy figure,
it can also be interpreted
as a profane statement.
Yes.
As a reference to the female anatomy
at a certain time of the month.
Oh, my.
No, no, no, no, no.
Yes.
I thought we were talking about cream pies.
No, viewers may be...
That cream pie would make more sense
because isn't this a nice thing she's saying,
but here it's saying,
oh, you're so bad,
you're making the blood come out of me.
I thought that was meant to be like
that he makes me wet.
Yes, that's what it is.
Well, he doesn't,
a man don't cause periods.
Not that I've heard of.
You know what I mean?
I thought it's called that type of the blood.
I think somebody might be playing with the IMDB.
I think it might not be quite on the up and up.
I think it's also a thing where it's like,
it's not that much of a one to one.
The jam in my jelly roll.
Like what does,
what makes a jelly roll special?
It's the jam that's.
You know what I mean? He's the thing that completes me.
He's the apple of my eye. That's what we say.
She's not talking about minstrating.
Actually, trivia, apple of the eye might mean you're on your period.
Because you thought about because of you.
Apples can be read.
I actually also heard that expression, don't count your chickens before they're hatched.
Not really about making a decision before you have all the information.
No, it's actually about periods.
Oh, okay.
It's about menstruating.
Crazy.
Because it might not hatch because that's why.
It's literally not hatching.
That's the problem.
That's correct.
But also part of their heads are red so that, yeah, there it goes right there.
Quick, add this all the IMDV.
Like this helpful person.
I mean, this fucking lunatic.
What's the, what's the helpfulness number there?
Tomato is also about periods.
That makes sense.
Let me guess 15 thumbs up, 20 thumbs date.
16 out of 50 found that interesting.
Oh, that's a lot of thumbs down.
That's good.
I was assuming everyone on IMDB was stupid.
But those are 16 of the dumbest people using the internet.
What's good for the goose is also good for the gander.
The gander being your.
You're menstrual cycle.
I can barely finish it.
You know what?
Yes, sir.
So Travis takes Captain Murphy to the evidence area.
You know, give me the lockup keys.
I mean, just waltz in this dude in around other cops, like executing them.
But also, like, a couple of these guys.
get got quick.
We're talking about heat.
Great LA crime drama.
Sure.
Possibly one of the best.
It's as if during the
fucking bank robbery
you cut away
to Al Pacchita like,
yeah,
I'm just getting a sandwich.
Oh no,
why you put too much
mayonnaise on my sandwich?
It just doesn't make any fucking
you kill any drama
or it diffuses everything.
It diffuses the momentum
of the film.
Because you don't want,
you are no longer happy
with the audience
who's there for the thrills and everything else.
You are now fucking catering to the fucking babies.
And you have to be like, look, isn't it fun that they're kind of,
they're kicking shit.
Isn't that fun?
And it's not a person.
It's just a water bottle.
So they determine René Russo's like, all right, well, we used the computer and
realized that he hacked the LAPD mainframe.
Let's not think about that too much.
And this is how he knows where all the guns are being kept or whatever.
Where's the next stockpile of guns?
Oh, it's this place.
This is where our little Billy the kid is like, oh boy, Mr. Riggs.
Oh, boy, I'd sure love to come along on this police adventure.
Can I come?
Can I come?
I've never met the almighty Mr. Riggs.
Can I go, can I go meet the almighty Mr. Riggs?
And it's his birthday.
So when he gets instantly murdered, it's like, happy birthday kid and run away, never think about him again.
Well, because I think the idea would be like in a world where this movie means.
In a world.
Maybe you kill the captain, right?
Like, oh my God, the captain got shot.
And maybe that's part of his script
Much like the best bad boys movie
Yes, of course
And then next week
Hey, if I got shot in the previous movie
Here's a tape of what you should do
Oh that bad boys
Riggs and Murtock
That bad boy's fourth looks not good
I'm not happy that it's even happening
I can't believe he gets the
Jamie Kennedy if you're watching this tape
You're in a sequel
What are the chances
I'm thinking very
high.
Uh-oh.
That we're getting a pretty obvious reference to the slap in this movie.
Yeah, 100%.
I think it's a hundred.
I do think it's 100.
I would put,
I don't know.
You know, I've lost money on this show before.
You might want to button up there, dude.
Not enough.
You got an expensive wedding.
No, I think it's definitely happening.
I can't imagine them not doing that.
And you know what?
Do it.
I'm so sick and tired of everyone pretending like that was the worst thing to
happened to anything. Just get off
your fucking high force. If anything, they should slap
each other more. You know, celebrities,
I'm watching this thing. You're getting golden
statues. Beat the shit out of each other. The problem
there was that Chris Rock didn't answer back
with a, you know, a five-finger surprise.
So there's a cave system underneath
LAPD? Yes. Yes. Of course.
And by the way, this Billy kid that gets iced
really quickly. How about
Jack icees him in the
in the climax or something? Yes. Let's save
some of this. Yes. Yeah.
I would have, I mean, this whole
we don't need also we don't need any more again unless it is the captain we don't need any more
impetus to really make this one personal in quotation marks no exactly uh you know he's
already supposed to be avenging his son's dead friend that he killed the movie forgot who they're
avenging exactly you got to pile it up i suppose i mean so he gets uh the they they start robbing
it the fucking they all find out what's happening so it's renre russo daddy glover rigs
Billy the kid
they all get down there
and like almost immediately
Billy the kid
gets shot in the heart
and like the rudest thing
you could possibly do
is when you're trying to see
if a kid
this kid you just met
it's like dead
and you're just like
oh well happy birthday kid
I'm like what the fuck
the delivery is so wrong right here
because he's not sad about it
it's like a well
told you so
yeah it absolutely is
you weren't as
good as Riggs.
Fuck you.
Yes.
Totally.
You clearly weren't cut out for this job.
I better drain my willy before I get on the rest of this.
Oh,
well,
I'll just go on your corpse.
I love the Reaper to be taking this kid's silver.
Shit,
Riggs,
that's pretty cool.
You know what I mean?
This is all they realize.
Oh,
hi Riggs.
Hi,
Reaper.
That's my best friend,
the grim Reaper.
We're almost like co-workers at this point.
He's got a bedroom in my place.
I set him up.
he knucks them down.
The old alley-y-up to the afterlife.
I'm number 12 on the old time list.
And now you'd think a climax of a film would be entertained.
I feel like this is the boringest part.
What even...
What even happens to the captain?
Do we see him be released?
No, here's exactly what happens to the captain,
because the movie does forget.
So they realize, okay, how are they getting...
Because they figure out, okay, well, they're not taking the guns right out of...
They're not coming back up.
What are they doing?
The L.A. Subway or whatever.
Subway's right there.
The truck train.
Yeah, Billy, which are real.
Billy the kid has the line, like, L.A.'s got a subway?
Oh, well, collateral hadn't come out yet.
Come on.
I understand that.
That's true.
And neither had volcano.
Yeah.
But yeah, so then they go down into, and there's like a station that's under construction.
Sure.
Again, automatic weapons firing immediately.
The captain kind of breaks free.
He, someone's about to kill Riggs, I think.
Oh, okay.
And the captain fucking tackles this dude.
They go down onto the tracks.
And this is the guy.
Billy Bedlam gets it.
Billy Bedlam.
He kicks him in the stomach and he falls on the third rail.
Yeah.
And he kills that guy.
That's a good one.
It's pretty cool, right?
But then the captain gets up and he's like, well, that's it for me in the movie.
It's the last time you see him.
Because you want him to be like, you guys, we've had our differences, but you saved my ass.
Exactly.
Or whatever.
Riggs, what happened to Edwards?
Oh, he's dead.
I told him happy birthday
As long as you're doing, Riggs
As long as you wish him happy birthday
That's right
No, the funny thing is
They leave the captain there
They steal his car
That's right
The captain's car is the one
That Riggs is driving
Well Riggs is on the motorcycle
And Mertah's driving the car
And we just drive to the abandoned
The work site
That we've seen a couple times
Well they're chasing
The first is the chase
Down the freeway
That's not finished
Right, yeah
It's got a speed
Which is
Speaking of the LA subway, this is the, this is sort of one of the better set pieces of the movie, like the, the, the motorcycle going off the unfinished bridge, he's hanging on the, he's hanging on the rope. It's, it's photographed really well. It looks really nice. It's pretty sweet. But then once we get, didn't Yon DeBott? Yon DeBot shot it. He did. Yeah, yeah, baby. Man, he should stick to shooting movies and not directing them. Didn't he direct speed? Yes. Oh, really? He gets a full-time pass. Okay. Well, go on. Go-go. Go go. Go. Go. Go. Go. Go.
watch the haunting, Chris.
He's got you there. You got the one-two speeded
and twister and twister kind of rules. Yeah, I guess I need to
revisit his filmography. What has he done for me lately?
Probably not. I think perfect storm might have been him.
No, Wolfgang. That's what you get your Germans mixed up.
That's a fucking sad movie. That is a very sad movie.
That I've seen more than five times were just kind of sick.
I don't even think Jan DuBont has made another movie even close to speed.
But speed alone. Cradle Life Tomb Raider.
You love that one. Yes.
The Haunting Speed 2.
Granted Twister and Speed.
Those are nice. But then after that, he found
himself in a pickle. He's been gone
ever since. See, so this is a guy
who's legitimately in movie jail.
Yes. Yes. We were talking about how
Damien Chazel is not in movie jail.
Kids don't know movie jail. They don't know it right.
They're not saying it right. They're just like saying
stuff and they don't know what it is. He hasn't been around for
three years. You can't just say that. So he's in movie
jail. So yes, the car
goes or the motorcycle goes off.
The dudes shoot the shit out of the
the chief's car,
captain's car rather,
and then it's like,
yeah,
we know,
Joe Pesci,
this is the annoying part.
Joe Pessi shows up
in his convertible
and it's like,
oh,
because they,
they ask him earlier in the movie,
figure out whatever Verde,
the business,
Mesa Verde.
Yeah,
look into Mesa Verde,
see what's going on here.
He comes up at this point
and he's like,
here's this place that they've been,
you know,
this construction site,
kind out in the desert,
blah, blah,
they're like,
all right,
we know that the audience
doesn't want you to come along
for the rest of,
of this movie. We're going to shoot the shit out of your car tires so you can't follow us.
Guys, guys, I got today's pages. I got today's pages. I know what the climax is. No,
it's not the band in the music park. That was last week's pages. We're not doing that anymore.
It's going to be the construction site. God, will you just fuck off back to casino? Jesus Christ.
Yeah, so here we go. The finale, we're out at Mesa Verde's construction site here.
and all these houses still like just the bones skeletal structure kind of thing it's a cool
idea I got to move away from factories it's got to stop we need a new thing that's very true
this apparently was an actual like development that lost money and they were going to tear it down
so why not burn it down for the movie this is that is the engine I think that is the biggest thing
we lost burning down real things yeah actually like actual buildings you got to give it to
what's like Tyler
Perry that fucking idiot who directed
the Alex Cross movie
having those old fucking theaters
that were about to get demolished and shit
like that and there gives it character
like actually
a civic research department that looks out
for like what's going to be destroyed
pretty soon
hey it's like don't undervalue
your location department
yes you know what I mean
it looks real do you know how good
that is it looks like not a computer
made it's real yes
So, yeah, I mean, in this fight, I mean, I wanted to be longer.
Not longer.
I wanted to be better because it is long.
Yes.
I was checking my watch.
There's not much, it's not much fighting.
It's all guns.
And then like the fire trail kind of does the most of the work.
Which is cool.
And I like to see the things burn.
Lorna, Rinda Rousse will get shot here.
And it's like, oh, no, these are caught killing bullets.
Is this the end of Lorna?
Very important also.
No.
Danny.
No.
Danny Glover has brought this machine gun that like the whole thing is going to avenge my son's
friend. I'm going to kill this. I'm going to kill Travis with the fucking same gun. This opens up
so many questions about Murtaugh's brain and how it works for me. Like I had so many questions. I'm
like isn't the gun the bad thing? Wasn't that the whole thing? It was like the guns of the babies.
But dude, much like some of our expressions we were saying a minute ago, what's good for the
goose is good for the candor. You want to
fucking have that gun out on the street? Here's
what can happen with it. Yes, I'm going to go against
my own personal morality. I'm on my
period. Hoisted
by your own automatic ptard.
Also meaning, yeah, hoisted by your own
partard, that's definitely period talk.
Absolutely. Yep, yep, yep.
Oh, another one, I found, I just remember another
one. I read this the other day, I think it was also on IMDB.
A watch pot never boils. Oh, yeah.
That's about periods.
See, these guns. All about periods.
These guns shouldn't be in the hands of kids.
killing other kids, they should be in hands of adults
killing other adults all the
time. That's what it really should be.
But all this to say, the
death blow on Travis comes
from rigs. Yes. Well, because I mean, I feel
oh, hey, Danny, oh, really quick.
I've got today's page and
it supersedes your page
because I complained and
it's the Mel movie and I
have a bad guy. It feels like that because
this movement here like some
cool fights with them, like the house falls on
him for a second, but he gets into a bulldozer.
Right. That is like, oh, you can't shoot me because your bullets don't go through the metal.
And then it's just like, oh, I give it here. And he shoots through and kills Travis.
Which is wild. So let's recap for a second. Danny Glover has the gun. Yes. That was pointed at him.
He has the gun now with the cop killer bullets in it. Right. He's close enough to Mel Gibson that he can throw him the gun.
Yes. Why not just start spraying the bulldozers?
It's so unfair to Danny Glover
that this is how they decided
I packed you a lunch too Riggs
Yeah Riggs is about to die
That's the only reason that they give the win to him
Is that like he's about to be crushed by this fucking thing
Have it be Mertog
He's unhinged
This is his last case
This is avengement for the
You know this is his thing
Mel could weep over Lorna and be like
Oh no are you okay baby
Exactly because he lost his girlfriend in the last movie
He has to value her more in this moment than he does.
No, no, no.
Danny, I'm sorry.
Have you seen the ranking for the hottest people in America,
according to People magazine?
I'm number one.
Danny, I looked at it.
You're not even on the top 50.
You're not even close.
I'm sorry, mate.
I got to be the one to do it.
Riggs does have a good line, though,
where Travis is like,
go to hell, Riggs.
And he goes, you first.
But he's got two,
because he does that,
and then it's like,
I think someone says cop killers,
like ex-cop kill.
Yeah, that's right before it. Yeah, that's another decent one, I guess.
Well, you want a hat on a hat. That's always the, it makes it better.
He's like a bullet at China shop. Oh, that's also about your...
That's totally about periods. Absolutely, yeah, yeah. Oh, even a broken clock is right
twice a day? Yep. Periods. Don't carry your chickens before the hatch. Yeah, we...
We mentioned that one already. A shit. But don't worry, it's still about periods. It hasn't changed. We did settle that out. But the thing is, right, you were saying, like, he doesn't get to do the, oh, Lorna's stuff. Yes, he does. Just after he gets to be the hero.
he gets both of it. I fucking hate this.
The movie's over. Shut up.
Open your eyes, baby. Open your eyes.
What do you have to lose? And she says, you?
And he goes, not likely. And then he goes, hey, Lorna.
This is kind of a good line. But again, fuck this.
Because you got to ice the bad guy too. He goes, hey, Lorna, let's live to regret this, huh?
Great line.
Sure. Great spin on you'll live to regret this. Very cool.
But it shouldn't be both. And then also, by the way, bye bye, Renee Russo.
She gets fucking airlifted. End of her in this movie.
We talk about her full recovery or whatever
But yeah
Then the next
It's just back to the tub
It's back to the tub
We've got daddy's retirement cake
We do cover his cock
Towl Dick in effect
Just let the man take a fucking
And he's like
You know what
Happy sequel day
You know what
You know what
You know what Nick
Killing your best friend
reminded me
I love being a cop
Yeah
I got to keep being
Be murdering
and being now
scourge of my own community
I love being a fucking cop
and now they're not gonna move
and also like the
this is this really kind of hit close
to home to me and it bothered me
he has been saying
like he's going to retire
right yeah I am
the son of a cop I grew up
very worried for my dad
sure all the time I fucking
hated it I hate that my dad
was a cop like yes
put food on the table he took care of us
everything like that the worry that went into
it sucked it fucking sucked
when I think about it now like it still sucks
they are elated
that this dude is going to do this right
yes yes yes yes and when I tell you
they don't like them
maybe they don't want them around I think so
my dad retired right
after 9-11 he came out of retirement
I was fucking devastated
yeah right because it's like oh I finally
could stop feeling that way
and now I have to feel that way all over again
that's the realistic response
to this shit. These dudes are like
we're supporting you, dad, we get it, we
fucking get it. No, because now you have to worry
about dad not coming home all over
Did your father ice what are your friends over a
Blockbuster Reddzel or no? My dad
ices out lots of friends
he was terrifying
to a lot of friends, but no, I don't think
you ever murdered anything. No fatalities.
I don't think any fatalities.
It is pointed that Nick is the first
one to say, we support you dad.
Yeah, he's the first one to say it.
Daryl deserved it, Dad.
You're right.
Thank you so much for killing my friend.
I'm so glad he's dad.
My friend Sammy didn't bring back my Sega game.
Could you get him next?
Oh, I haven't forgotten about Sammy.
Tell me you didn't kill Sammy over Togeam and Earl.
Tell me you didn't kill Sammy over Togeamadr.
We bought it.
We bought it for our boy.
His time was up.
I told those kids.
Lights out at 11.
For you, Nick.
Togeam and Earl.
You're all going to be.
Not to mention he had
Earthworm Gym with him too.
And then what happens?
I get up at 11.03 p.m.
and they're all still up.
What you want me to do?
Not shoot him in the head?
I just, I have hated
this fucking ending.
It's so stupid.
It's so, I mean, look, and it also just
robs the movie of any agency.
Of course, Joey,
uh, Joey Pesci shows up,
and he farts at it.
Oh, everyone's kind of going to get to jump
the tub together. It's amazing. I finally
sold the house. Can you believe it? I finally sold the
fucking house. It's like, we're staying.
Oh, boy. Also, why can't you
just move to a better house? I mean, I don't know.
I think he's sunk too much money.
Oh, yeah. That's right. Because that's after
the first movie, dude, that's when you give
it up and get out. You don't rebuild the living
room. Because you rebuilt the living room,
which means you had to rebuild the fucking toilet
explosion. You know,
like, come on. Don't they finally
in the last movie burn the house to the ground
completely? I believe so. Yeah, I gently
he does burn the whole place down. It's completely good.
God bless him. So
Mel shows up. It's the end of the movie.
He kisses René on
the cheek and it's like, what was that?
Rian. Rian, apologies. Rian on the cheek
and now like Danny Glover's like, what's that about?
It's a platonic little kiss. I'm going to go
see Lana. Who, by the way,
hi audience. She's alive.
We're not going to see it. She's alive though.
She's totally fine. Trust us.
And we're in like just this whole
We already have a dog and everything.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, I'm moving in with her.
I don't have to live in my trailer, you know, on the beach anymore.
My question about that, and I don't know if we brought this up during the first one,
if he owns that property, I'm not sniffing it.
That's pretty fucking nice.
Yeah.
But if he just has to have to squat, he's squatting there.
I think certain you can, like, rent a parcel to put it on.
Yeah, really?
Probably that.
Oh, because I just figured what happens is every time the cops roll up,
sticks his badge out the window, he goes, one of the old timers.
just drive off.
I'm sure he does.
Yeah, I mean, that's it.
They drive away bickering, you know.
Bicker over the credits.
Is there a post credit?
There certainly is anybody.
I find this on IMDB because I didn't watch it.
Did anybody stick around with the stinger?
So you hear the thing right over the credits.
Uh-oh, they're responding to another code two bomb threat thing.
Stinger of the movie is they show up to it and it's just like this ADR.
It's not even them.
There's no closeups.
It's all just far away.
The car pulls up.
ADR bickering. Oh, let's wait for the bomb squad this time. Oh, no, we'll just get out of the car and stand there or whatever. A Mel Gibson stunt double gets out of the car. The building explodes. He gets back in the car. Reverse, reverse. And they like peel out and drive away before they get in front. No, they should have stuck with the shitty out of the shitty. Sounds like he was like trying to do like a rock. Like, there's a hunger and sad. Because Eric Clapton is also on the track being Eric Clapton. That is the.
The end of Lethal Weapon 3, directed by the great Dick Donner, go around the horn here.
Final thoughts, Eric Siska.
Yeah, it's a light recommend, even after all that griping.
Because, I mean, Danny and Mel, they got this good chemistry.
I guess I got nostalgia for the franchise.
Some of the action scenes are good, but there's a lot bogging this down.
So it's almost not a recommend, but it's a light one for me.
Steve say that.
It's a not recommend.
I have less nostalgia of this franchise, even though I do love.
the first movie. You never
saw the second. Exactly. I got to get
on that second movie apparently.
But this movie is not making me want to see the second movie
because it's just, it's a messy, messy sequel
that it throws everything at the wall
and not a ton sticks. That's me.
I'll leave the lethal weapon expert. For last,
I will say it's a light recommend
you have to see those first two movies
after that. Only if you're
really like the first two should you continue
this is it's really clogged like eric said
some good set pieces for sure
no doubt about it dick donner can direct action
scenes like nobody's business
but boy is this a crowded thing and
fucking just peshy with that die job
you can't unsee it no you cannot
unsee it very unfair uh Chris cabin
final thought I think
it's a light recommend I think it's
a Simpson season 12 situation
there's still stuff there
of what I like
enough that I'm not pissed
Tamaco
yeah like there's stuff
there
it's a great analogy honestly
and like I
so like again yeah
like what Eric said
like Mel and Danny
really are what I'm here for
and they
clearly the producers
understand that
and kind of did a little too much
with it
but whatever you know
I get what I kind of want from it
but yeah like this is
you see this
and then you know what four is
and you see all like
the beginning of the end
you're just like
oh they just doubled down
on the worst decisions here
to make the fourth one
and they got rid of all the good stuff
from what we liked about the
first two movies is now completely
gone and in the trade
you get gently but really I mean
come on I like all the shit with like Uncle Benny
and all that stuff it's fine
better than these cops
but I prefer this to the fourth one by
quite a margin a light recommend
there we go and just real
quickly I didn't say it I did want to say again the
Renee Russo I think is really fantastic in this
yeah but anyway so that is going to do it
for Lethal Weapon 3. If you want more We Hate Movies, of course, check out patreon.com
