Loaded Weapon 1: The 90s Spoof That Took A Lethal Shot At The Genre|Best Buds Summer Rewind(6 of10)

from This Podcast Takes Tokens · host Deric Jennings, Ryan Jennings: A Clay Street Production

Do you feel lucky, punk? 😉 This week we are diving into the hilarious (and sometimes baffling) 90s parody classic, Loaded Weapon 1! Fresh off our Lethal Weapon deep dive, we're dissecting the spoof that took aim at the buddy-cop genre, for better or worse.We discuss how this film contributed to the oversaturation of spoof movies in the early 90s , its surprising Rotten Tomatoes score , and whether its over-the-top humor still lands today. We break down the comedic genius of Emilio Estevez and Samuel L. Jackson , the parade of celebrity cameos (including Bruce Willis!) , and even ponder why there was never a Loaded Weapon 2! As always, we’ll dive into the Retro Ramble, we may have some Stale Popcorn and we’ll check for your Gum Under The Seat!If you're a millennial who grew up quoting this movie, or just love a good action-comedy, then this episode is for you!Join us as we take a LIVE trip down memory lane, every Thursday on YouTube!
