What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Ed Hocken]

First one has Busey being weird and cool.

Second one has Peisci.

And Leathal Weapon 4 is horrible. Shane Black's original plan was to have Riggs killed in the second one.

Also, I wish Shane Black would do movies outside of having them set at Christmas in LA.

[Nathan]

The first one has Busey right?

[Abraham Smashington]

YES.

[Ed Hocken]

As Mr. Joshua.

Plus, did I mention Al Leong as the electro-shock guy?

[Nathan]

The 3rd and 4th got preachy and dull. And don't get me wrong, the second flick is great but the first is, well the first!

[Captain Russ]

Also, I wish Shane Black would do movies outside of having them set at Christmas in LA.

Why?

Every single one of 'em has been fucking outstanding.

[Ed Hocken]

3rd movie completely neutered Riggs.

As for Shane Black, I dunno. Just so I can see something different from the guy? It'd be a nice change. Like Diablo Cody not TRYING to be overly-hip.

[Matt]

Busey's Mr. Joshua is great. It's not his best role (that'd be Angelo Pappas), but it's certainly memorable.

I'd give LW an A and LW2 an A+.
LW3 and 4 both get Cs from me.

[Ed Hocken]

LW4 was terrible. Not even average.

[Captain Russ]

Pesci being brought back for 3 and 4 (especially for that awesome story about his pet frog at the end) was a mistake.

[Ed Hocken]

Not only that, his hair was dyed blond in the third one. WHY?!

And let's not forget Chris Rock's fantastic monologue about phones.

[Nathan]

Pesci being brought back for 3 and 4 (especially for that awesome story about his pet frog at the end) was a mistake.

Oh my god I totally forgot about that. Richard Donner making him do that scene is probably what made him retire.

[V]

LW3 and 4 both get Cs from me.

You're far too generous...

3 gets a C-... the only thing that keeps it from a D is Stuart Wilson. He chews scenery like few others.

4 gets an F... for FUCK YOU, DICK DONNER... FOR FOISTING THIS SHIT UPON US!

[Matt]

I'll be honest, I haven't seen LW3 or 4 in quite some time. I remember them as being OK, and you're making me think that I shouldn't revisit them and sully my impression of them.

[Ed Hocken]

I thought the upgrade was due to having the bomb in the toliet scene?
