I watched Lethal Weapon today. I realized that the small amount of MA in it is grappling and simple strikes. I never relized Mel Gibson put a leg choke hold on the guy at the end till today.

The rest have small amounts in them also. Of course the 4th one has a lot because Jet Li plays the bad guy.

Isn't it amazing how you can find MA in almost anything, if you're looking for it?

Yeah Mel does alot of grappling in those movies. I would almost say that this is probably the best set of squeals every to be release. Not counting Star Wars(Not actually a squeal, more like a saga)

The LW movie series is quite entertaining if you can look past all the propaganda. A steady onslaught of political correctness in those flicks has from time to time made me cringe. There have been some real good fight scenes. Riggs v. Joshua, Rene Russo v. a whole bunch of people, Jet Li v. Riggs and Murtaugh. I had never seen Jet Li before LW4, and I have only recently gotten to see that on video. The guy is awesome. If they ever make a movie of the Marvel Comics character Shang-Chi, I think Jet Li would be an excellent choice. I hear that Ray Park ( Darth Maul from Ep.1, and a Wu-Shu expert ) has been tapped to play Iron Fist. Should be good.
