When I was 19.......
first time i watched it i thought he said the kid HAD A FAKE GUN but he didnt know 'it eats him everyday' something like that
@betatalk357 thanks for that i got caught up in my MK ULTRA programming and got them mixed up .... OR DID I ?
*bruce willis voice*
@betatalk357 you have valid points
they edit the films
i remember Lethal Weopon being edited in several versions because it was too voilent. like the fight scene at the end was shortened imo
when garry busy shoots the cops too was edited out
this video is edited theres a skip in the music
check
1:24
i saw the french version tho that may have something to do with it xd
the intro to this movie is the best scene in cinematic history easy
When he says "It's the only thing I was ever good at." always gives me a shiver. He delivers the line with such conviction it's fucking insane.
That one line reminds me of a line in MGS4. Snake says "I'm no hero, I never was. I'm just an old killer hired to do some wetwork."
Unless you do the math and it impossible on multiple levels
The line resonates with me also.
He says it with such disdain
That's Mel Gibson for ya back in those days 🇦🇺🇺🇲🌞🙏
When Riggs said no to liking his wife's cooking Roger gained a bit of respect for his honesty.
Because we don't tell the wife that we accept it 😂
Both statements he made need not be opposites. He could have indeed enjoyed the meal- the people, family dynamic, the banter.
And still hated Mrs M's cooking.
The dialogue, Mel's delivery, the lighting, Clapton's guitar. This scene is perfect.
Agree. A couple of other things I noticed that lend to the intensity: Still hear the night sounds (crickets) and Mel doesn't blink while describing the kill
It's bullshit
What’s the song
That'll Be The Day
Buddy Holly
Totally agree. One of my favorite bits of movie dialogue.
The chemistry between the two is a huge part of what makes this movie timeless. The older, seasoned police officer and the younger, military vet with a few issues but a strong sence of right and wrong and an almost fearless devotion to the job of effectively policing is pure magic. All these years later I love these movies. Classic cinema
This series are classics for a reason
It's not Christmas until Riggs tells the truth about Roger's wife's cooking.
Where the trust started. Riggs was honest.
This is one of Mel Gibson's best scenes ever. He totally sells it. By far my favorite scene of the movie.
Lt riggs is one craziest police detective to solve crimes.
Best bromance in film history!
Sgt. Milton Osiris yes in films history but in anything on tv would be corey & shawn or Joey & Chandler
Bromance? They are partners on tbe force and friends. No romance in that. What the hell is wrong with todays generation? Are you all really programmed that much?
Even as a little kid when Riggs goes “I do it real good ya know…” I got chills.
" Hey Riggs". "Yo" " You really like my wife's cooking" about a five second pause "No" 😂😂😂 I always get very into this scene especially when Riggs talks about shooting a guy in high wind. He only told Roger that because they almost died that very day.
Best movie part ever
they don't make movies like this anymore :(
I love the part at the end, "Hey Riggs, you really like my wife's cooking?",, Riggs: "No, see ya tomorrow" lol
Love this scene.
I love it too, this is where the friendship begins
"You really like my wife's cookin'?"
1:51
".......No."
@@ScientistHL"See ya tomorrow..."
The beer can into the garbage can required both of them. A fine example of how they worked well together.
I love the guitar work In this movie just simple chords but it definitely makes the scenes all come together. Eric Clapton , Michael Kamen and David Sanborn.
What a rare statement by Riggs. very impressive, well performed and directed !
Great movie...never gets old.
Rest in peace, Dick Donner and Michael Kamen.
And Mitchell Ryan now.
Before his passing donner gave gibson his blessing to direct the 5th movie but I cannot see that being made now and even if they did I'd imagine it go the bad boys route and introduce a new younger cast
@@Johno1992 sadly that'll be the case, even if they brought back the original actors who played Murtaugh's kids, it just wouldn't feel the same. besides man, the way "Lethal Weapon 4" ended was the absolute perfect way to end the series on such a high and happy note
Truly frightening that a man only has one skill: killing. No wonder his character was suicidal. Riggs didn't have anything else to live for.
You completly missed the FACT that Martin Riggs, although fearless and indifferent toward his own death WAS doing much needed work as a police officer. A NOBLE thing for the betterment of society and IF he was killed along the way then he was OK with that. He DID take people to jail too and not simply capitalise on his killing skills BUT when in harms way he would revert back to the mindset and the training to stop the threat, on its tracks.
Met a military vet in trade school. Administrative-type. He told me of when he was young and joined the military in order to get away from home. He said that he got really good at "his job" but when he came home there was no place for someone with "his skills and qualifications". So he went to college and became an athlete. Really nice guy. Took me a week to realize "his job" was killing people. Can't imagine what kind of life that must be.
Got his respect instantly when he said I did a guy in Laos from a thousand yards out
Unless you actually served in the military. 1000 yards in high winds is a shit ton of swag and skill. A 19 year old wouldn’t have
21 maybe
Enlist at 17 earliest. Our not going special ops maybe rangers. Highly unlikely
@@catmandoo4u1 With all due respect, sir, he did say mabey 8 or 10 guys in the world could have pulled it off. I believe you when you say it'd be real real remote at 19 but it is a movie and mabeee 8-10 guys might have pulled it off? God Bless you for your service as I've not nor ever will forget ANY of our warriors in ANY of our battles.
I'm sure this scene was sort of inspired by carlos hatchcock he set the record for longest recorded sniper kill Vietnam (1.42 miles) before the sas then the Canadian and most recently the ukrianians have broke that record with a 2.3 mile shot
With all due respect, if it not boasting, your partner deserves to know your capabilities, good or bad.Your mental fitness is called into question, your new partner has only a file to go by,is it not common sense to be honest, clear the air, and say "this is who I am,what I have become, and what I can do." Better than an unknown.
Damn, anyone who could draw a smiley face at that distance, shit, I want him as my partner. ( and, yes, I know it is only a movie, for the true critics out there)
It's not boasting but it's something he would not be very willing to go around talking about. His take on himself is that he's good for only one thing: killing people. Which is not a very nice trait to have (at least if you're not a fucking psycho), nor one a lot of people will react very nicely to.
as for being honest I think Riggs was exactly that since the get go with Murtaugh. His first real talk was about him being fucked because nobody wanted to work with him. His second real talk involved a gun aimed to his head and him clearly stating that he's barely hanging there instead of killing himself. If Riggs was something since the very beginning with Murtaugh it was honest.
@@ramjb Fair enough
There will never be great movies like this again.
You need to quit watching Porn 24/7 And watch some movies!!!..Mark J
That scene still gives me chills.
Clayne Crawford and Damon Waynes have nothing compared to what Mel and Danny had.
Ross DiamondThief clayne done a fucking excellent job as Riggs waynes on the other hand is a fucking clown piece of shit who deserves a swift punch clean in the jaw
@@Johno1992 he doesn't come anywhere near to the Riggs character portrayed by Mel. Riggs is a very complicated character. A full of energy, adventurous, thrill seeking-no bullshit character who became a Vietnam war special forces veteran, who in turn ended up battling with loss while feeling suicidal in an attempt to find meaning in life again through his job and his new friend and partner. I am sorry but Mel not just nails that psychological profile in the first LW but far exceeds any expectations to the point that you question whether he is like that himself. CC was good, but I am sorry he is nowhere near Mel's performance; that role was made for him, period.
gpapa31 so claynes Riggs isn’t like that? A navy seal who lost his team his wife and his kid? He nails the guy with nothing to lose role
@@Johno1992 I have only seen season 1 so I can only make a judgment on that. He created too much comedy to feel right for me. He has his moments but he is not convincing, it looks forced. That's just my humble opinion. For TV he is good but there is a reason why Mel is an A list actor and Crawford has made it on TV mostly. I think Mel raised the bar too high and owned the role of Martin Riggs that anyone after him seems mediocre.
gpapa31 the second season really dived into his background with his dad and that was something never seen in the flicks
Riggs tossing a empty can to the recycle bin ♻️
It took me 25 years to realize he was a Force Recon/Navy Seal level sniper.
One of my favorite scenes ever
Where is the cool shit like that in movies now?
What movies? All they make is cartoons and marvel crap.
One of the best movies ever
Building that first bit of real trust there at the end.
My fav duo ever ❤️
This scenes why the movies called lethal weapon, Riggs is literally a weapon.
Lethal weapon movies are wayy too good!
Honesty builds brotherhood, when he said he knew he could be trusted
Love Mel & Danny. RIP Richard Donner
Rifle shot from a 1000yrds at high wind is wild
Most bad ass part
Here's a rant... I know this is Mel's/Riggs scene...But for me after Riggs shares his truth, it's about the guy he can do so with, Roger, another vet, but not just. He is what Riggs wasnt able to become...just yet, a patriot, a husband, a father, a citizen who understands civic duty and is righteously vengeful towards the wicked and evil, loyal to a code every good man Hope's to uphold.
Riggs *could have* had his wife not died: That broke him. But, also note that haunted sadness in his voice when he says: ''It's the only thing I was ever good at.'' He doesn't *like* the fact that that's the only thing he was ever good at, and, had he said that to anyone else, at another time, they would have just blown him off as bragging. He needed to be able to say that to Roger - a father-figure - who could actually listen and take it in, and know that it's not bragging at all, but genuine sadness that his only God-given talent, is killing...
Good scene.
He goes full blown psycho delivering that line. Center of the frame, half hidden behind his truck. Doesn't blink.
With a different music it'd be Cape Feare.
“I did a guy in Laos from 1000 yards out...” DAMN, Mel Gibson is hung like a fucking HORSE!!!
i dont know why but i always recall this scene...
Uh, because it’s a great movie.
This scene tells you something about Riggs he's trusting in this scene right when the story starts and ends great performance mel and that night he went to pick up a lady looking for a fun time and she got the three stooges that night and he payed her $100 bucks thank you have a nice day!!!
You are right. Good movies can always reveal a lot through small snippets of dialog mixed with the right amount of mood music and lighting. This was great because it waited till the right time. Movies today would have him utter that line 5 seconds after we meet him.
Thank you I appreciate that Merry Christmas!!!
Aaah... Good times. :)
Riggs is the Best cop !
Too bad that riggs wasn't that lethal in the sequels.
I used to think that sequels to this film failed in comparison, but I've kind of realized that the two sequels were pretty good. The fourth would have been good if it didn't feel like the actors were going through rehearsal. By the time the fourth one came along Mel Gibson had won his Oscars and I think he was tired of the franchise, but was enticed by the paycheck. Frankly, the best thing about the fourth one was the trailer when Chris Rock said "it's going to be a lethal summer".
I remember seeing the scene where Riggs answers Murtaugh's question "Do what?" directly by saying "Kill people."
Has anyone else seen this deleted part? The full line exists in the copy of the script by Shane Black.
I havent do you have the link to it? If so please post it.
No Laos em 69 aceitei um cara a 900 metros, chovia e ventava forte…é só nisso que sou bom
Bad ass moment
Superb 🙏🇦🇺🇺🇲🌞
É só nisso que eu sou bom…
Riggs won him over
And now the Murtaugh and the National Lampoon Christmas Vacation house which where right next door to each other are erased from existence.
wait they tore them down?
@@thequietestengine Yep. They say that they are going to replace them with soundstages. It's all about money. SMH.
lol so murtaugh apologized to riggs a few hours and minutes ago and riggs saids he doesnt like his wife's cooking?
vern gets the good bounce
mom and dads thoughts thats what counts
scott drives up with ounce
This wasn't in the script, this is really Mel Gibson talking. He thought the cameras were off.
In real life, Murtaugh would tell their colleagues and they'd make him prove it by shooting a pumpkin from 1000 yards the next day.
NOT TRUE...You see in your generation most punks talk shit..where as in my generation MOST guys told the truth because IF you talked shit YOUD GET YOUR FUCKEN ASSSSS KICKED.
Plus you'd be labeled A GOOF so no, what Riggs said was taken at face value...
well he did shoot a smily face in the target card the next day at 50 yards
I do it real good ya know ….. chilling
Make a movie on Riggs experience in vietnam
berkley jensen gas
special forces man speech pass
chinese knife no sass
No 😂😂😂
Remtkd like this will not get you invited for Christms dinner!
Is the shot possible or is he just like lee harvey
Sure, it's possible. There were killing shots made at distances almost twice that much in the Iraq-Afghanistan conflict.
Go stand at a 1,000 yards & I'll prove it to you!....Mark J
My favorite quote to say to people at the bar “you know I do it real good, did a man in Laos from 1,000 yards in high winds”
I also like, “anyone get to you yet” Shawshank Redemption
At 19? That would be called luck unless he’d been training since he was 14 in sport competitions. He’d have to enlist at 17
What you know about long distance shooting wouldn't fill a teaspoon....Mark J
@@markjoey1852 O.K. 1000 yards is almost a kilometer. In dead still wind shooting north to south or south to north on a cool morning with low humidity... maaayyyybe. It's a pot shot. Laos doesn't have that. High winds ....... Luck. To Mark how do you know wind is faster than 5 mph visually? What is the Coriolis effect at 1000 yards? What is coriolis shooting at 280 degrees. What is the direction of the wind? Is the wind steady across 1000 yards and total flight time of 1.2 seconds. Hold over of more then 32 feet? You can't dope it out and high winds you can't dope it out. The BC of the bullet to the wind. Pushing "water" at what RH. Mark they didn't have targeting computers in vietnam. So a lot luck with a little skill to swag. It's not like call of duty. Anything past 600 meters is long range. Air is heavy and gravity doesn't take a day off. Sniper don't zero at 1000 yards. If they had to make the shot outside of 500 meters forget about it. Also at that time 30-06 with a wood stock which is a pig. Carlos Hatchcock did 2.2 km with a M-2 but luck... lot of luck.
@@markjoey1852 Yeah...... mark people do make crazy shots. It a lot of luck. SWAG. Scientific Wild Ass Guess. I was in the armed forces. Not a sniper. 1000 yard is luck with a rifle set up for 1000 yards at a range in ideal conditions. It a lot of luck in a random area with a rifle set up for 400 meters.
I have a Very Nice Collection of @@catmandoo4u1 Weatherby Mark V rifles. One being a 30-378 magnum.
That caliber held the record for decades for the tighest grouping at 1,000 yards for decades.
Verything is a constantly changing variable/factor in consideration of long range distance shooting....with a certain degree of calculated "luck"....
Besides the Weatherby 30-378 magnum....add to that a 257 & 270 Weatherby Magnums...& other "Enjoyable Firearms"...Mark J
In vietnam kids lied about their age to go to war. And sometimes people are just talented marksmen.
Highly overrated scene. What is SOOOO special about his delivery? A delivery is a delivery. Nearly all actors in Hollywood share the same level of skill. Sean Penn could've delivered this with the same "intensity". So could Tom Hanks. So could Dennis Quaid. So could a thousand other blokes. Only a very few exceptionally shitty actors (e.g. William Shatner) would've struggled with this scene. So let's not put Gibson on a mighty pedestal.
You couldn't act your way out of a wet paper bag!....Mark J
Ifs not intensity its sensitivity.
Can I just say that, a sniper of any American or European army would never boast about a thousand yard hit. You keep that to yourself out of respect and discipline of the deceased, Gibson obviously was dollar hunting and didn't learn his history from the failed gallipoli campaign. Cheers people
I understand what you mean, but Lethal Weapon was never really meant to be realistic. If anything, it's a popcorn movie.
Rigg's comment about his kill was because that very day they almost died in a gun fight. Sgt Murtaugh just want a easy time before retirement, and gets a partner extremely unstable. So, Riggs (in this scene) is trying to show what kind of environment he came from. Sorry for my lack of english.
TheGodParticle that's why they write books and go on tv and talk boast about it. Literally couldn't read or watch a quarter of all snipers talking about there shots and kills. Watched Carl hathcock video on utube just other day but I guess him and Chris and Marcus luttrell were all fakers.
Stephanie Rednour well they shouldn't, some things are best left unsaid.
But of course.... he's psycho afterall.
GREAT Scene/Moment in Cinema History!!!...Mark J
