I really loved Lethal Weapon 4…and it brought to us Jet Li :)

I would also love a sequel, the salary for Glover would be so little nowadays and I’m sure Mel wouldn’t need a high salary either with what’s been going on with him these last 2 years. It would be a good idea to have a propper closing movie to the series and perhaps set some stuff up for a new take on the franchise with new younger actors?

I wouldn’t be a fan of this film focusing on new character but I can definately see the studio wanting to keep the franchise going with some new stars

Oceans 13 cut some casting baggage (the ladies) pretty smoothly, so I don’t see why they couldn’t drop Rock, Russo, or Pesci without having to kill them off.

I loved the first one, the second one was good, I forget the third one, and the fourth was fun in the sense that it was like hanging with old friends, but was kinda meh all around.

They need to get rid of all the extra characters, because it’s bogging everything down. Back to basics! Dick, Shane, Mel and Danny!!

Burnt Offerings ! I say !!

Niall, I share you love for the first 2 Leathal Weapon films but 3 and especally 4, sucked hard.

I really can’t see Gibson’s character still struggling with his suicidal issues, that’s what made the first and second films for me anyway.

This sounds just as stupid Goonies 2,,,

Good god this would be pointless UNLESS they do a prequel and de-age the main characters like they did with Xavier and Magneto in X-Men 3 lol

It’s been 10 years since four came out. You would think after all this time, and this being the 5th movie they would do a remake. One and two have spots in my library but 3&4 don’t, if that tells you anything. :)

…hmmm, not only Murtaugh, but the whole cast can chime in with “I’m too old for this [shizz].” Ugh, I suppose with the original screenwriter, another installment could work, but not if the script (and plot) is going to seem half improv-ed like part IV. As others have said, it’s become too cast-heavy and too chummy. It’s the fireworks between Raj and Martin that made part I work so well.

If this is going to seem remotely interesting, they have to let Mad Mel off the chain; in especially IV, Riggs seemed so domesticated and tamed, it might as well have been “Lapdog Weapon.”
