Best part of the whole series is in Lethal Weapon 2 when the woman jumps off the diving board and everything explodes! The sheer over the top-ness of that image and that whole montage is amazing! Wish they had stopped at #2 though. If they make a new one Riggs and Murtaugh really will be too old for this shit!

An action movie legend in her own right. Pity Megan Shapiro didn't last too long in LW2. She may not have been as hot as Anne Lewis, but she seemed like a ballsy lady. There were rumours of a LW5 script written by Shane Black where two young cops would be introduced, but luckily, I don't think it'll happen. No point doing any more.

Was this the script the studio wanted Black to direct, effectively sidelining Richard Donner and his team of writers? If so, maybe it's good that Mel turned them down. I always thought a fifth movie should return the focus to Riggs and Murtaugh- as opposed to bringing all the supporting characters back.
