(1989) Mel Gibson's Unauthorized Video Diary
HTML-код

- Amazing and hilarious behind the scenes on Lethal Weapon 2 created by Mel Gibson. Found this on one of my old VHS tapes from HBO. Lots of footage at Warner Brothers Studio in Burbank. 26 minutes
Damn Mel was really a vlog pioneer
I know right. Back when he was charming
@@AndrewPatrickRalston He's still charming.
@@airmackeeee6792Indeed. He just got a ton of bad reputation because of the media.
@@raulsaavedraviolante4350 The media hates Mel cause he's not a brainwashed mouthpiece
I’ve had the great pleasure of meeting Mel at a bar when I was vacationing in Malibu and he was a very down to earth guy and bought me a beer, this documentary also shows how down to earth and humorous the guy is and really what other actor would take the time to do this sort of thing and also include the entire cast and crew in on it? The best part was he actually remembered peoples names on the set instead of calling them what they did on it. It just seems like a lot of fun to do while also doing the film, and the fun spirit of it is great, and informative!
Ryan Reynolds
Did you speak much to him?
I mean when the video camera came out like the hand held ones everybody was filming. Yeah he said some shit when he was drunk but he seems like a good dude at heart. Most of the people who judged him have said similar things behind closed doors or to themselves. It’s awesome to see these though. Hollywood was so different.
What bar was that?
@@David-bg3ct a beach bar called the blue Lounge, also saw Pierce Brosnan at the same bar the next night with his wife and one of his sons. I wanted to say hi as a big Bond fan but he had an entourage and security with him
MEL GIBSON IS THE ORIGINAL RUclipsR!!! Him and Ferris Bueller!
The fact that they were shooting this literally alongside another Warner Bros classic “Christmas Vacation” was amazing.
Think about the work that went into the set design and the crews that made that happen.
They had to turn the Murtaughs house into “Todd and Margot’s” pretentious contemporary place. Then add all the snow to the entire neighborhood!
Always these behind the scenes videos.
What a shame we’ll never see another LW film after losing Richard Donner last year.
They are making another film with Mel directing
Agree no richard donner no lethal weapon
Mel is a slapstick genius!
I can't believe I found this absolute gem of a documentary. Showed a lot of the cast's personality and is a goal for film set environments. Mel and Danny were frickin awesome in the movie together, but I absolutely loved seeing them as goofballs in this. Gibson also showed off a little of his directing skills in this with some of the skits. Then when Danny Glover came out and started break dancing after they were referring to him as a wild partier, my eyes almost popped out of my head. Really funny
makenna miller yo creo que si la segunda de morir duro la hubiera dirigido el mismo director seguramente hubiera sido igual de buena como arma letal 2
No one could have predicted that just five years later Mel would win an Oscar for Best Director & Best Picture. It all started with the quitter sketch. 🧦
THIS IS GREAT. I haven't seen this since 1989
Mel is the reason we now have Ryan Reynolds on RUclips. If you notice the credits you can see the influence on Ryan Reynolds Deadpool films opening credits. Mel was the original Vlogger, back nobody was doing in those days. He also rocks an awesome mullet.
If there were any subtle, but strong indications that Mel Gibson wanted to(and was going to) direct films....it's here!!!!
I recorded this back in the day on VHS but it is long gone good to see it again
Lethal Weapon 2, Road House, Batman. 1989 was awesome!
Don’t forget Christmas Vacation and License to Kill!
One of those forgotten gems---the Danny Glover dance solo had me rollin!
Your the man Mel! One of my Icons growing up. The Lethal Weapon films are literally the bench mark for buddy cop movies!
MEL Is A Maniac!! I Love Him!!!
I remembered watching this and recording it off of HBO after the movie itself. Mel Gibson was an absolute genius putting this video documentary together. This was hilarious! Thanks for sharing this!
Oh my goodness, I've been searching for this for a while!! I recall seeing this on HBO I believe and I laughed at multiple spots! It showed a different side of Mel as I was use to watching him play Mad Max. Lol
That car crash at 1:57 is from the 'Road House' movie where Dalton invades Brad Wesley's estate.
joel silver producer as well. kamen in the soundtrack. maybe its the same crew and all
@@wellington66440 que paso ahora con joel silver que ya no produce mas peliculas ?
@@nahup944 penso que ainda está na ativa. Se não me engano o próximo filme que produzirá será Sherlock Holmes 3 com o RDJ
@@wellington66440 esque su ultima pelicula fue the nice guys de 2016 pero despues de esa no produjo mas nada, es como que se retiro del cine
Omg, I can't believe i found this one. All i could remember was it was the making of some movie with Mel Gibson, behind the scenes, and he was upset about a sock calling it a quitter. I thought about this for years, and stumbled on it today. I was 9 years old when I first saw this, and oh my goodness, the memories.
Haha that's great. I love having a vague nostalgic memory that I suddenly find the source of!
Dude. Fuckin thank you for this. I missed seeing these. 🙌🏻🤘🏻👏🏻
Mel was hilarious. My buddy was working on a sitcom at Sony Studios around this time and Mel randomly snuck on set to play a practical joke on the cast.
Mel's first directorial debut who would have thought he'd make the greatest movies
Took me back to summer of '89 when this was aired on HBO (when I was a still a teenager in HS on my planet🪐.First time watched in 34 years).
I've been looking for this tape for 30 years, thank you very much for your contribution. No doubt Mel Gibson was the king of Hollywood...!!!! :-)
Mel You DAWG! You're THE BEST! Stay STRONG! M
Thank you for sharing this! I watched on HBO when it aired. What brought me here was that I remembered the adorable Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman) had a cameo.
I remember laughing my ass off as a kid at this. when lethal weapon 3 was announced I prayed they’d do another one and they did. I still refer to old socks as ‘quitters’
Long before there was RUclips and Tik Tok: Mel Gibson at his finest comedic self...
Indeed!
Really good time indeed
It’s crazy that he lost his Australian accent! These days. Mel is one of the best actors and directors in the game I hope I get the chance to work with him.
Wow! Mel talking to Derrick O'Connor, who played his bitter enemy in Lethal Weapon 2.
Thanks for sharing this, I watched this several times on HBO back in the day. Was always hoping it would be on a disk in the special features.
Thanks for this upload. I haven't seen this in 30 years...
I saw this on HBO back in the 80s. I laughed my ass off. Been calling limp socks quitters ever since. As good a name for them as anything.
I am so glad I saw this. Mel got screwed by people he genuinely cared for. To all the haters things you say drunk should not destroy your life. But it is our crybaby culture now that made us all lose out on all the great movie and TV he could have made
I remember watching this as a young guy when it came out. Back in the day when you watched whatever the network was playing.
Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this.
Dude who played Joshua he actually looked like he could be connected, this was the best movie even in 21 I have not seen a movie with soo much passion!!!!
Hahaa! What I just saw?! That was so cool! Like it a lot. Wow! Mel Gibson is a legend
YES I LOVED THESE ON HBO. LOOKED FORWARD TO THESE JUST AS MUCH AS THE MOVIES THEMSELVES
Thanks so much I have been looking for this 20+ years now!
Brilliant this video is love the Lethal Weapon Movies first one I saw was the sequel
omg this is awesome; i saw the arm chopping part and literally screamed out loud
So awesome 😎
THANK YOU! I’ve been trying to find this for years
Glad I found it. I was digitizing all my old video tapes from HS
@@AndrewPatrickRalston Andrew you rock my friend for this classic gag stuff from Mel. Hilarious!!😎
@@shel0016 Was my favorite as a teen!
Dear Mr. Ralston, Thank you! You're a treasure for this!
I´m reading Richard Donner´s bio and they talk about these videos! thank you!
There were a couple scenes in Lethal Weapon 2 when I could hear Mel's Aussie accent.
How have I never seen this? 🤣🤣 What a legend
Thanks for this great videooo 😂❤❤❤
This was long before Curb your enthusiasm and The U.S. Office. Good fun and very funny.
You can hear hints of his Australian accent here and there
Mind is blown to see a mineral collector in this.
This is so great. thanks for posting it.
Didn’t expect to see Chevy Chase lol. The Warner bros sock joke I think has some truth to it.
The guy from the movie Doctor Detroit was also unexpected.
thanks for sharing
Oh my. Mel is so much joy.
RIP Richard Donner
matthew kelly la verdad que si, pero supongo que su muerte fue como una especie de descanzo eterno porque el tipo no se canso de dirigir y producir
Dan Aykroyd haha awesome. Did not know about this!
LEGEND
BEST THING EVER
I remembered these specials on HBO.
I wondered if they were included in the DVD format with the film?
Mel also did another one for his movie “Hamlet”. It was pretty funny too!
Ooo...I need to see that!
Good insight that Mel wasn't very jaded at this point
i miss prime Mel :/
Love you Mel--you're hilarious!
Gold !!!
great credits, fun video
if all the sequels to die hard had been directed by the same director, produced by the same producer, written by the same writers and with almost the same cast as the original, it would surely have been a lethal weapon, but unfortunately it did not happen
Sadly Die hard franchise ended at fourth I guess
So nobody notice footage of behind of scenes of that road house stunt
Gold
80’s version of Cannonball Run end credits 😊👍🏼
This is fantastic!
Yeah, that ending was quite weird.. how many monsters did you 👀
Joyeuse ambiance !
Et Danny Glover a un talent de danseur que j'ignorais jusqu'à présent !❤️🗽🇫🇷🗼
I remember this well... knew dialogue from it. “I have to talk loud for this videotape, it’s crap”
Derrick O'Connor is actually Irish.
Well damn this was so funny, 11:48 lol
16:07 Hank Schrader!!!
Holy shit. Didn't even realize that. I thought he was a crew member
Mel Gibson Danny Glover our Legends Lethal Weapon series the greatest cop movies of all time and my all-time all-time all-time favorite movies
Busey is in the screen shot and he wasn't in 2.
RUclips defaulted to his scene in the diary. I'll change it.
@@AndrewPatrickRalston No need. Great video. Mel definitely had direction in his future. I believe creator Shane Black wanted the series to end with #2 and Riggs dying at the end on the ship. Donner had other ideas.
5:16 haha is that Chevy?
Yeah haha Christmas vacation was filming the same time as lethal weapon 2 on the warner bros backlot.
@@gameroftheyear1000 AND DAN FUCKIN ACROYD!!!
Mel, and Chevy were actually pretty good friends back then.
Aww they invited Gary Busey to the set
now i get the south park parody
Lol i remember this 😂
Ok but has Arthur Thompson seen this 24.38
mel gibson is a character apart
hey that's hank from breaking bad @ dean
mel gibson is literally me.
16:58 ok ok ok ok😁
Hank Schrader at 16:07.
8:00 Am I high or is the "paperboy" Clint Eastwood?!?
It's a pretty good impersonator. I think I saw the same actor doing the Eastwood bit on an old commercial too. Cant remember which one. I was wondering if he worked at Warner Brothers for the tour.
Man It's hard to keep a straight face....
Is this his directorial debut?!
According to imdb, it is!
L5 coming soon ...
They should've just put this one out instead of the movie. Mel Gibson is the 3 Stooges.

I recognize the actors but not the country...California does not look like this.
Gary Busey was in Lethal Weapon 1.....lol.
hahahah
Pee wee
It's a plastic
