Deleted Scene from Lethal Weapon (1987) - Riggs vs Sniper

This was supposed to be Martin Riggs introduction in the movie. I guess it was too dark and was cut.
I need to sit down and do a Lethal Weapon marathon some day soon. I don't think there's a bad movie in the series.

Directors Cut.
Not in theatrical release.

I don't. Some quick googling and this looks to be a deleted scene. Maybe this scene was on a DVD you watched?

I guess a sniper shooting kids was a bit too much.
They could have had the sniper targeting politicians or lawyers, but then most of the audience would have been on the sniper's side.

It's such a cliched scene. I'm surprised they didn't name the character Chad Riggs.

Martin Riggs was a bad, bad man.

Yes, he is. I would fully support a Martin Riggs movie and let Gibson direct it. Won’t happen, but Gibson could do it right.

I've watched Lethal Weapon at least 25 times, including in the theaters when it came out.
I've never seen that scene. Pretty badass.

Yeah, that was a little too much. Glad they cut it.

The replacement scene was Riggs and the jumper right? Its been awhile.

I guess. I've never seen this version.

The intro of Riggs was him buying the drugs at the Christmas tree farm.

Once again, a cop (who is supposed to be a tactical stud) is walking around without a round in the chamber.

He could get away with it.
Martin Riggs was a bad motherfricker

Also, Lethal Weapon is a Christmas movie.

A Christmas tree farm you say? Well, that settles it.
