pathetic Yo, Jody Foster! Give your ole buddy a call and talk some sense into him.

Nope, not feeling him!!

No, thanks.

I will go and see it. Definitely. Unless I need to show an ID to the hilter youth of today.

Mel Gibson? You mean the racist, anti-semite, homophobe, and religious wingnut? That Mel Gibson? BoycottLethalWeapon5 wbpictures

I will watch! I love the Lethal Weapon movies!

🤮

Away from the bad taste element and the last film released in 1998 underwhelmed at BO and poorly received critically and audience tastes have changed, in 1986 Murtaugh was getting too old for it at 50 by the time fifth film opens he will be almost 90 and still a police officer?

Ew. No thanks.

Have you heard his racist recordings? No really, listen to his thoughts. They’re on tape..

NOPE

I fixed the headline for you: 'Racist, anti-Semitic, misogynist, homophobe to star in film about killing people'

Let Gibson and Nazis like him know... He's unwelcome

He’s too old for that shit

The bad guys will be Jews trying to take over the world

paulmac708 Yer fuck it..... Why not 🤔

paulmac708 After Patriot and brave heart Gibson has a third movie to hate the English

Is the working title, 'Lethal Weapon 5: You Should Just Shut Up and Blow Me'?

No.

Direct to Laserdisc…

Let's goooo! He's a fantastic director. That's all that matters.

DaveePena Sure... Why not?...

Well it's WB....so i'm not surprised.

Not interested

He's definitely too old for this shit

I will watch it

Plot: A drunken Riggs screaming and threatening Cole over the phone while getting arrested, while masturbating on the bible.

OLD MAN RIGGS!....

I’ll pass. His drunk racism is too much for me

And I’m in talks with myself not to see it.

Time to cancel hbomax

Bigoted old white man is rewarded again.

CityOnFireNews

Wish he would do that story about Lorenzo de' Medici. His historical films are the best.

FOHWTBS. Nazis shouldn't have careers much less be directing big budget films.

He’s literally The Original Worst, so I guess “cancel culture” is a myth.

Something something cancel culture

I prefer the original Lethal Weapon 5

As long as he doesn’t direct or star or have anything to do with it.

This is excellent. A great way to send off Donner’s legacy.

Lethal Weapon 5: The Passion of the Alcoholic Anti-Semitic

One of the greatest DIRECTORS
