One of the best movie cops I have seen

The best, no question. No other cop kicks ass like Riggs.

Lets say even k?

No bashing characters in their own respect threads.

I gotta rethink this whole Riggs/McClane thing. I am still of the opinion that Riggs owns McClane with guns, nothing ever changed there.

H2H? Well, I was in favor of Riggs, then McClane, but I just watched Lethal Weapon 2 and 3. Riggs is a BEAST, man.

I'll get back to you on it.

Flip-flopper...!

McClane pwns Riggs..

But respect to Riggs anyways for being in another great Xmas action movie.

haermm Not flip flopping, just reconsidering it, the h2h part anyway. Nothing wrong with that.

Yup, it's Riggs.

Attack Riggs while he's shaggin' some honey in his trailer? See what happens:

Like I said, NO other cop kicks ass like Riggs.

Riggs at his best:

Worthy of respect, yet still not 'McClane standard'.

And heeeeeeeeeere we go!!!! Take it back to Mac's nutsac, no one wants to hear your mouth slobbing on Mac's cock here.

Hang on a minute, Mr. "I spent 453,333,002 pages making sure Riggs' sphincter was adequately moistened with saliva in the McClane thread"....

I think that it was you who is the illogically loyal nuthugger round here.

Nah. You know Mac is my favorite character out of the two. It's just that I don't live in a fantasy world like you do, pinball.

Oh really? Well thats a relief to hear; 'cause you're 'reality' seems comprised of fantasies about Twilight vampires and Harry Potter Wizards which you seem to fantasize a lot about in this section..

Ive always argued from a POV of logic and reason as many others here do.
So i'll stay that my fact based little 'fantasy land' cheers.

HP wizardry is on a whole different level than Jedi power. Any idiot who isn't blinded by HP hate can see this.

Twilight? That's DDM, not me.

Mhm, that Gibson is a hoot.

Youre kinda spamming/trolling/whatever.

Nah I wasn't.

mhm yes huh you are.

Wasn't.

WTF happened to him, man? He seemed so normal, then BAM.

By the sound of it hes been like that with drink since the 80s, just took a while to surface publically, I guess.

Maybe the brain cells finally went south, like all the way?

Its looking that way.

A shame.

Big shame, he still has the talent, Edge of Darkness was great.

A lot of his stuff was great.

Maybe its a simple case that the act and the actor are two different things.

Those rant and SP videos are about Mel and not Riggs.

Yes It highlights the irony that in MVF debates Riggs has no female-combatting credits feats (something that came up when discussing the Ninja chick scenario).

At least we know from them what Riggs would look like should there be 'Lethal Weapon V'..

Or we can just accept that Riggs fights opponents that are on a different level. Better.

Sure. On days where you feel like 'accepting' that Black is white, and that the sky is multicoloured with spots, that Kennedy most likely wasn't murdered in a conspiracy and squares and that Star Trek Nemesis was better than Wrath Of Khan.

Oh MAN you're a conspiracy theorist......

Not per say.

I shoulda seen that.

It wasnt a bad movie. I think "Payback" was better though.

Over your head.

No. My refusal to dignify your point with a direct answer claarly went over yours though.

You done? You should see someone about that superiority complex.

That McClane is superior to Riggs?

Never.

Loaded Weapon 1, nuff said,

(Featuring McClane enduring the Beach/Trailer bit in a better fashion than Riggs..)

That was actually Emilio Estevez.

DN6feERzbo8

You were saying?

Ah, the cameo, my bad.

Well, one things certain. We know now that Mac failed to match Riggs' trailer feat.


You had to see that coming haermm

Well Riggs certainly FUBARED it. McClane wasnt captured, and no GFs got drowned.

Shit, Riggs killed them all. Mac surrendered

Wrong. Im afraid Riggs surrenders all the time.

Not that time

Oh thats right, a couple guys overpowered the guy who you reckon cold kill entire towns full of people all crammed in a room with only his bare scrotum, and now he gets done by a couple of low quality stooges?

Is THAT what you're saying...? (IE finally admitting that Riggs wasnt as good as you thought)



Or did he surrender....?

Riggs is tortured, breaks Indo's neck with his legs, escapes, then enters the room UNARMED and kills 5 fully armed men.



Suck on that, *****.

What matters is that HE couldnt.

Ahhhh so they overpowered him when he was armed like he was a girl, then, and murdered his GF after he refused to surrender..? Fair enough.

Ahahahahaa the sweet smell of denial!!!!

Nah thats Cumbledore's breakfast.

If your head continues up that magical hole any further, you will be able to see out of his mouth.

Could Mac do what Riggs did in the vid?

Nope.


Next question.


Could Riggs do everything Mac did?


Yup.


Moving on.

McClane would have done it better.

Yup. On we move.

This is a loaded premise. McClane wouldn't have allowed himself to be captured in that scenario to begin with and letting women die isn't on the McMenu as a staple.

"Could Riggs do everything Mac did?" Hahahahaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaa

No, Riggs hasn't shown much skill im nigh-impossible feats like McClane has. Knocking a gunman out of a helicopter by running over a hydrant, lauching Crown Victorias as they were anti-air missiles etc. etc. etc. etc. to infinity.

The Robtard unit's readouts are correct.

"Everything" meaning fighting feats. H2H and gunplay.

H2H,
Gunplay,
Smarts,
Onscreen body counts,
ability to kill everyone without physical assistance by Partner shooting everyone the fighter cannot beat,
Luck,
Longevity,
Endurance/Damage Soak,
the essential ability to kill during a serious hangover,
Driving skills.
Inventiveness under pressure.
Ability to take the mental pressure of combat without cracking up
Ability to kill everyone yet still make its xmassy.
Ability to protect people youre with.

All pretty essential areas for LA cops in the eighties, im sure you'll agree..and they sum up the word "Everything" a bit more complete than just the two things you feel Riggs has the edge at.

There's many an action star that can do your standard action-star fighting feats and gun-play, that's nothing special.

McClane has something that sets him apart (or arguably in a small group), Riggs doesn't, he's just your garden-variety action-cop with a buddy.

"But...Riggs knows kung fu..."

This guy would tear Riggs apart quicker than Jet Li's character did.

He even has a better stance than Riggs.

Mac can't match this feat

He wouldn't have to.....hes WAY harder to capture than Riggs is.
But McKilling rampages yield higher death tolls than Riggs' so back to the eggnog, for you RJ.....

Plus I could also remind you that Riggs wouldnt have made it through Die Hard, unless Murtaugh was there with him in the building to change Riggs' kecks.

Good, so he can't match the feat.

He could any old day.

And FYI, Riggs can NEVER match the McClane feat of surviving being in a motor home when it was shot to pieces by a thousand shots and then surviving being in a massive explosion when the propane tank went up like McClane did.

DN6feERzbo8

Riggs pussied out by escaping through a trap door, then getting captured....

Oh..or any of the Die Hard movies....

No. He couldn't match that feat. Nothing in any of the DH movies indicate he could.

Except for the screenfeat shown, that I just cited, of course.

K......So Mac couldn't do what Riggs did.

Dude if that was McClane in that scene, he'd get the same result but in a more exciting way. And there would be awesome punctuating wisecracks too.

Maybe, maybe not. If there was nothing around to use in a trademark McClane dirty ambush, then McLuck and the McClane factor will see him through unarmed, like everytime we see him unarmed against an opponent.

You say that McClane cant have the same resistance feat in his main movies that he had in LoadedWeapon.... Yet you forget that Riggs wasnt in the same shape after LW1.

IE: You are attempting to judge Riggs only on his highest ever feat, and you wish to gimp all McClane's more powerful feats to create the illusion that Riggs didnt go to shit totally by LW3.

McClane is going on strong and will be in Die Hard 5 soon.

No, just saying, they do things differently. Riggs can easily duplicate every Mac feat. Would he do everything the same as Mac? Nope, but the job would get done.

Since he lacks McClane's luck, Ridiculous damage soak, stamina, intuitive cunning, driving skills and ability to win wars single handedly combatwise..
I'd have to say you're wrong.

Riggs has enough damage soak to get the job done. The rest, well, McClane has to rely on that because he lacks Riggs' skill. Riggs doesn't need luck, he makes his own.

McClane has skill too. But you need more than that to be able to walk in the McLoafers.

More Lethal-xmastuneage for ya.

Never said Mac has no skill, just that he has less skill than Riggs. They're two entirely different dudes.

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell,
That's the jingle bell rock.

Man Riggs isnt really all that H2H, but he sure is good with that Sniper's rifle.

FF to 6:35.


pzxDlCDW5aU&feature=related


Now you can stop talking.

Apart form that neckbreak, (Which come have just as easily been a McHook to the throat) McClane would have EASILY been able to do that. The did better and harder feats in the lift scene in Die Hard 3 with less room to maneuver, and against guys who reacted quicker....!!!!!!!

So it is YOU who will stop talking, I think.

You post the vid hoping to decry my claim, but you end up providing proof for it instead. LOLZ RJ, LOLZ

No, he couldn't have done that. McClane would have had to use an SUV or some shit, not his bare hands.

Show a scene that backs what you are saying.

I dont have to. The elevator scene in DH3 amounts to more killing in a more of a confined space and does armed with the same amount of weaponry.

Your trump card lies in ruin.

Riggs really wasnt all that you say he is H2Hwise, judging by LW1 feats..

McClane was more effective against Joshua's many equivalents in all the DH movies, and did it all by himself.

McClane check and check. DH 1-4

Riggs entered the room UNARMED, killed with his bare hands, used the others weapons (all 5 of them) on them. All this after being tortured near death.

Name one Mac scene that trumps that.

No. Youre wrong. He was armed with a corpse.

And McExploding a plane full of Fort Brag marines with only a Zippo,
and the de-helicoptering of the sky with a crown victoria because he was and I quote "Out of bullets" were more impressive unarmed feats.

Not H2H combat feats haermm

Nice try though.


This is a Riggs respect thread. You wanna compare the two, do it in the appropriate thread.

Okay, but my point still stands.

Respect to the Mullet.

Do the right thing, Violator.

I already have, Wizard violator.

No, watch Hot Tub Time Machine.

Ah. Havent seen it yet. Heard its funny.

What I said is a line from the movie.

Yep I surmised that, after you mentioned the movies name.

Ive been meaning to check it out.

Back in the 80's, what a nightmare.
