I read Boam's 2nd draft from 1995 or '96. He only wrote two. Donner made him rewrite it to include Leo Getz. It opens in 1975 with Riggs in a Vietnam POW camp about to get tortured. He and his soldier buddy turn the tables on VC and escape. It's all very Deer Hunter. Later, it's revealed the soldier he escaped with who is Riggs' equal in combat is the head bad guy about to assassinate a black Senator by shooting a rocket launcher at his airplane from a top of a building. Riggs, of course, stops him in a fist fight to the death. I remember it was a good script. The best of the bunch and I read almost every LW 4 script from Lemkin to Channing Gibson. I remember, I also liked the script from the guys who created Smallville, Millar & Gough. They wrote a fun draft, too. In my opinion, though, Lemkin and Channing Gibson wrote the worst drafts.

[@OrcaRebuild]

How about What Could Have Been: The Predator?

[@jmcclain8237]

The original idea by Donner was to have Christopher Reeve playing Riggs.

[@davidjames579]

Shane Black had Tom Atkins in mind after he starred in Black's friend Fred Dekker's film Night Of The Creeps. This also reflects Black seeing Riggs as an older man, having served in the Special Forces in Vietnam would suggest he had several years Army service prior to that. And the archetype character Riggs was was the old bad man gunslinger of Western Lore, akin to John Wayne in The Searchers or Spencer Tracy in Bad Day At Black Rock. As would happen decades later with John Wick, the character went from that to much younger once Hollywood didn't want an older leading man (see also Die Hard and Commando). Atkins however got something out of it, being cast in LW as Murtaugh's Vietnam buddy, Michael Hunsaker.

While I've no issues with project leads (competently) finessing material, the original scripts you discuss sound better. I think the films as released reflect this. Everything beyond the first film, which itself seems chaotic, sound increasingly nightmarish. Aside: After a number of great projects like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys, it's challenging to reconcile that Shane Black with the one who wrote and directed the recent The Predator.

[@matthewdaley746]

Good overshadows bad, unquestionably.

[@Story2ScreenMovieReviewPodcast]

In all honesty, I wonder if the hesitation from WB in making a 5th Lethal Weapon with Mel Gibson has anything to do with either genuine lack of interest from studio executives running things now and/or their hesitation to work with Mel Gibson again because of his personal luggage and controversies?

[@LeMecQuiestCool]

Well, unnecessary sequels have become a standard trend nowadays, so it’s easy to imagine that if Warner could have reignited the LW saga, they would have already done it by now. The only problem is undoubtedly Gibson’s unmarketable reputation.

Can you do one on the last boy scout please

[@wbond6692]

I miss the darkness of the original movie. It makes Riggs' redemption arc, and Murtaugh's acceptance of his new partner, much more satisfying. The "Lethal" part of Lethal Weapon has been gone as of #4. Bring back Shane Black's Neo-Nazi script. The first was vicious ex military drug dealers. Second had South African apartheid (scumbags) using the system to commit crimes. The third had dirty LAPD cops turned to organized crime. The forth, human traffickers who counterfeit Chinese money......see where it falls apart? I love Jet Li, and the 4th movie introduced him to the US, but the murdering of human beings part and slave labor was completely forgotten about after the opening scene on the boat. (Groan) After that, was Riggs and Murtaugh trying to figure out why their fishing trip was interrupted. The Neo-Nazi script sounds like it was more fitting to the franchise. Imagine, bad guys starting a race war in LA, with Riggs and Murtaugh's family stuck in the middle? Especially with the right casting. I'm sure Chris Rock would've jumped at the opportunity to take on racist hillbillies turning Los Angeles into a battlefield. I'm very glad that Reann and Riggs was never a thing. As a father myself, that would've been like Riggs making moves on his little sister! Not what I look for in a hero. ("I got 3 beautiful kids, I love em, they're yours!") Anyway. If Lethal Weapon was to come back, we need to bring it back to form. Riggs is the wildcard, and his conscience is the family he has made along the way. Roge, Trish, Launa, even Leo, they keep the Superman in check. And that is the message of Lethal Weapon, Riggs channeling the monster for the sake of protecting what makes him human.

[@matthewdaley746]

Shane Black has to write the script, and, both leads must die at the end of the film, otherwise, there's really no point, period.

[@tyrannozilla]

As much as I enjoy all 4 movies, I do agree that the first one is the best for its near perfect mixture of a dark storyline and a bit of humor on top. One never outshines the other. As the films went on, however (especially with the introduction of Leo), the franchise got lighter and lighter. Again, they were still entertaining and had some memorable villains, but it just felt that they lost their teeth as they went along.

[@davidjames579]

The other reason Warners fast tracked Lethal 4 was that they had The Avengers lined up as their big money maker of Summer 1998. That shot in the Summer of 97. By the autumn, WB had seen an assembly edit and ordered a drastic cutting out of footage because they realized the movie was most certainly going to bomb or very much underperform, even after further editing. To offset their outgoings, WB needed a guaranteed hit for Summer 98. This is when they approached Donner and asked if they through enough money at him could he get LW4 written, shot and edited in time for July 98. Donner then pulled off the impossible, commencing shooting in Jan 98. As you say Mel Gibson fully milked the situation getting paid the most an actor had up to then. Interestingly his friend Robert Downey Jr did the same thing when Marvel pulled a last minute U-turn to make Captain America- Civil War after DC announced Batman V Superman. As your video shows a script for LW4 is dated May 1998, TWO MONTHS before its theatrical release. The Avengers released in August. As expected it bombed with the critics, and audiences. Not least due to some drastic editing to try and get the runtime down to ensure more screenings. Years later it's director offered to mount a re-edit to put the film back to its original length so it at least made sense. He said he'd do it for FREE just so people could see how his film should have been. But having made so little from cinema and home media sales, WB refused as they couldn't see any point.

Those first two also had a grit to them that made them stand out, and it steadily got aired out the further the films went along.

But yeah, there's no denying the massive change in tone between early and later LW movies, and though I love both, I prefer the more serious tone. The later films are at their best when they drop the comedy and go full action film. Made me love Rene Russo, too. (But I'm glad they didn't kill off Riggs. Why is Hollywood so bad at compromising between these things?!) P.S. Not NEARLY enough people talk about The Last Boy Scout. I didn't realize that was Shane Black, but it makes sense.

[@matthewdaley746]

Studio trashed it, unquestionably.

[@davidjames579]

Given how Black is associated with the Lethal Weapon brand, it is funny how often his work has been altered. Joel Silver loved the original spec script from a nobody so much he bought it for $250,000 Then proceeded to hire a director known for lighter fare, who then had it filleted of it's harsh USP by another writer (Jeffrey Boam). Same thing happens on LW2. Then amusingly as soon as Boam has a blank page to write 3, Donner finds it too dark and hires the script doctor from the last film to water it down. Then Black, by now a superstar screenwriter is offered a record breaking 2 million for his new script, The Last Boy Scout. He decides to instead take WB's lower offer of 1.75 million, which is still record breaking. Because it means Joel Silver can produce it, and Black still has a great friendship with him even after LW1 and 2. Then guess what, same thing happens again, and LBS has a lot of its original darker script re-written! After this Black is hired by Silver to contribute to Last Action Hero. His script is then written over by several writers after that. Black can't catch a break, so retreats from screenwriting. Much later he makes an attempt to do things his way by not just writing Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang but directing it. And who does he hire as his producer? Joel Silver! The two remain friends to this day, and Silver produces his later film The Nice Guys.
