"MAC:" "We need $40 million." "So we've shot a great deal of the movie, and we're gonna show it to you." "We just need a little money to finish it." "Yeah, see, we had a little bit of a falling out with our financier." "He's also playing Chief Lazarus." "Just, we had some creative differences with him, you know, which is why we're coming to you, but, look, that's neither here nor there." "Don't worry about that." "CHARLIE:" "The guy wanted to shoot a full penetration sex scene and show it." "But, to be fair, I don't have a problem, as much, with the act itself as I do with the man who's performing it." "Don't get into that." "It's, like, more specific than she needs to..." "Let her know." "I think she..." "Look, I just, I think that no one wants to see Frank smashing genitalia with a woman, but if it were me doing it, you know, imagine that." "Wouldn't that be nice?" "Imagine all the positions that I could get into." "You know, reverse pile driver, seated scissors, wheelbarrow, reverse cowgirl." "I know all the positions." "Whatever you like." "He can do 'em all." "I can do 'em all, yeah." "He can do 'em all." "So imagine that." "Do you see the difference?" "We don't finance movies here." "Let's show her more of the movie." "Get into the story a little bit." "Okay, that's exactly right." "Keep watching, and then see the big picture, know that there are budgetary and time limitations and ignore them, please." "Yeah."

"Our relationship is strained." "RIGGS (Australian accent):" "Thought I'd give you some pointers on your jump shot." "Noticed you weren't squaring up on the basket." "(Roger laughs) Schooling a black man on basketball." "You must be crazy." "Crazy enough to want to know why you never RSVP'd to my wedding." "Gee, do I want to see my ex-special forces ex-partner marry my baby girl daughter?" "Thanks." "I respectfully say, "No." I tell you what, Sarge." "Let's play a quick game of one-on-one." "You score on me, you don't have to come to the wedding." "If I score on you, I don't have to come to the wedding?" "That's right." "So all I do is score once, and then I don't come to the wedding?" "Yes." "Well, this is gonna be..." "a slam dunk!" "♪" "(ball bouncing) (Roger laughs)" "Break a leg." "Hell, break both of 'em." "(Roger laughs) (saxophone plays jazz)" "Heavenly Father, we thank you for your glories." "We also thank Martin for his lovely sax solo in lieu of vows." "Rianne will now recite hers." "RIANNE (Southern accent):" "My love, when I look deep in your eyes, I find my own destiny." "I find that I want to love you for the rest of my days, and I will." "I will spend every day of my life trying to make you the happiest man in the whole world." "(crying):" "That was lovely."

"(grunting)" "(grunting)" "(crowd screaming and shouting) Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "♪" "Um..." "I don't get why you're making this." "Oh, I mean..." "Oh..." "God, the bank didn't get it either." "Why make anything, you know?" "For the money, for the glory, for the fame." "Absolutely." "All-- the whole thing." "Yeah, and-and clearly the movie's pretty kick-ass right up until we get to the special effects snafu." "Our ex-backer liked to cut corners, but we feel like, with your technical expertise, being from a dot-com company and all, and your money, we could really make a kick-ass movie." "Yeah, now, the next scene is, um, the next scene is bad." "The next scene is a little bit of a disaster." "It's got some problems, too, but then, once we get past that, it's pretty good, but let me set this up for you so you're not totally confused." "Somebody released some kind of a biting bug, the likes of which" "I've never contended with." "Frank and I got them from" "China, and they just went crazy in the bar and bit us up like..." "What do you mean you "got them from China"?" "You ordered them?" "Don't worry about where we got them or why we were getting them." "Oh, my God, Jesus Christ." "We just released them, there was an issue..." "All right, so you're gonna enjoy this part." "Go ahead and push play." "Yeah, yeah, keep it going." "Hey, Chief, I'd like to trade in... (both coughing) ...these flowers for a badge." "Well, I just happen to have that gun." "Welcome back to the force, Riggs." "(whispering):" "Murtaugh." "Murtaugh!" "It's great that you're a cop again, Rog." "We'll n-need it." "Well, I had to come back because they killed my baby girl as you was getting married to her." "Yeah." "Looks like I'm not the only cop with a death wish now." "Ha!" "Chief, I think I found some clues." "What the hell does those things have to do with Chief Lazarus?" "Well, I've got a hunch." "Chief, I've got a hunch." "See, feathers were usually used in Indian resurrection burials, which could only mean one thing." "Damn!" "Well..." "That Lazarus is back from the dead." "Damn!" "You think?" "So he's probably planning an elaborate rain dance to drench" "L.A. so bad that it ends up in the ocean." "Making his Indian reservation the only thing left standing and very valuable beachfront property." "That's could be the only answer." "Yeah." "Oh, oh." "I'm just gonna fast-forward for a minute." "Uh, but this..." "Yeah, this is important..." "That-that-that's okay, I'll, uh, I'll play it here." "Beachfront property on his" "Indian reservation." "No, you're still going on about the whole..." "No, just keep going." "Yeah... yeah, yeah." "Well, you got to explain every aspect of the movie." "That's crazy." "Well, that's because when you go to the movies, you know, you can't follow what's going on." "No, you can't follow what's going on." "Yeah, yes, you can." "No, no, you're like, "Who's that guy?" "Is that the good guy, is that the bad guy?"" "Everybody knows!" "I'm sorry, guys, um, but maybe it would help if I saw the original Mel Gibson version first." "W-What do you mean that you've not seen..." "Wha...?" "How...?" "You've never seen..." "Lethal Weapon?" "Lethal Weapon?" "No, I mean, I've heard of it." "I think what's happening here is the fact that you're a woman, and our demographic skews male." "Well, um..." "It does-- we are a male- driven, uh, you know..." "We are testosterone-driven." "We're a male-driven entity." "I-I got, I got that." "Oh, oh, oh, the next scene." "Oh, yeah, yeah, right, right, right, right, right, right." "Oh, the next scene." "That's right, there's stuff for the... the ladies, I guess." "Oh, for the ladies." "Yeah, we shot this for the ladies." "This is all for the ladies." "You're gonna love this." "Well... yeah." "You're gonna dive right in, right here."

"All right, but this is about as masculine as it gets." "It's not, it's not, I mean..." "No, it isn't, no, it isn't." "You had a butt-double." "Oh, of course I had a butt- double." "You think I'm gonna show my butt on camera, Charlie?" "Oh, my God, I was uncomfortable filming the scene." "It's not up to the par of" "Murtaugh, okay?" "If you play the movie, you'll see..."
