Lethal Weapon 3

Um, yeah, and you, you look at, like some of the metrics-

He gets up off the ground like he's in, like, Lethal Weapon 3.

"I'm, I'm too old for this shit."

[laughs] He's, he's got, like, five forced missed tackles on the season.

Now, worth noting that the next three top-earning films, uh, domestic in, in the North American territory for 1992, were all sequels.

Uh, we got Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, that did 173 million in ticket sales, Batman Returns, 162 million in ticket sales, and finally, Lethal Weapon 3, 144 million in ticket sales.

Now, the VHS version of Disney's Aladdin, it goes on sale October 1st of 1993.

Um, so what is that? That's 11 months after, again, that Musker and Clements movie first went into theaters.

So walk me around your body and tell me the stories behind your scar tissue.

It's Lethal Weapon 3, I just checked, when Rene Russo and Mel Gibson compare all their injuries, like, like gunshot wounds and knife wounds and...

We have a mutual friend who, I don't know if he still listens to the podcast, but, um, he did at one point.

And he got some quite severe scars on his body in a way that did not bring honor upon himself, let's just put it that way.

But what a fascinating thing to meet the guy who wrote the original movie, The Karate Kid, back in the day.

'Cause this guy's resume? Taps, The Karate Kid, Karate Kid Part II, Part III, Gladiator, uh, Lethal Weapon 3, A Walk in the Clouds, The Fifth Element.

It just goes on and on and on.

You know, some people write two or three fantastic screenplays and successful screenplays, but, uh, Robert Kamen has, uh, just churned them out.

Then you're, they want you to pay for it four or five times over.

over.Or it's like you sound like a great, the Chris Rock scene in Lethal Weapon 3 right now.

But se- second, the, the, the main point I had was that I pay that amount, and yet when I still watch the NFL game, I have to sit through every commercial break.

Well, there's still gonna be commercials on the NFL game.

Why are you making us think about Mel Gibson? What did we ever do to you? If Dougal sings about T3, Rise of the Machines, audiences will laugh.

If he sings about Lethal Weapon 3, no one's gonna laugh.

Trust me on this.

Additional observations regarding Dougal's activity on Letterboxd, this is all hypothetical, but I believe he 100% has a list dedicated to his favorite New York movies.

[laughs] What movie?

[laughs] Lethal Weapon 3?

Yeah.

Yeah, Lethal Weapon 3.

But, but he's blick.

[laughs] It's so good.

or something,

it kind of reminded me of Roger being stuck in the toilet in Lethal Weapon 3 or whatever that was.

Almost exactly.

Down to the sweat.
