      BUT in this case I sort of get it - when people talk about great action movies, this often doesn't feature. Even when talking about great _Shane Black_ movies it's not always prominent. I've watched a bunch of reactions to the 'Die Hard' films for instance and to me this is an absolutely natural follow-on (a wise-cracking Bruce Willis action movie from the same era) and yet these are the first reactors I watch regularly that have seen it. So I dunno, maybe this one actually _is_ underrated ?

    18:28 The movie that Darian is watching on television is Lethal Weapon (1987), which was also written by Shane Black and produced by Joel Silver. Specifically, she's watching the scene in which Mel Gibson is being tortured by Al Leong, who played one of the thieves in Die Hard - takes a candy bar in the vending machine (1988) that also starred Bruce Willis and was produced by Silver. Mel Gibson was originally offered the role of John McClane in Die Hard (1988), and Bruce Willis was offered the role of Martin Riggs in Lethal Weapon (1987), and both ended up taking the opposite role.

    The script for The Last Boy Scout was written by Shane Black (who wrote Lethal Weapon), and its original title was "Die Hard," but producer Joel Silver asked Shane Black if he could borrow that title for the film he was working based on the novel, "Nothing Lasts Forever," which eventually became 'Die Hard,' and the script was renamed 'The Last Boy Scout.' At the time, Shane Black became the highest-paid screenwriter in Hollywood for The Last Boy Scout screenplay, which earned him a then-record $1.75 million. Black said about writing the screenplay, "I was busy mourning my life and, in many ways, the loss of my first real love. I didn’t feel much like doing anything except smoking cigarettes and reading paperbacks." Unfortunately, the production was riddled with problems from the start. Conflict and arguments erupted between Bruce Willis, producer Joel Silver, and director Tony Scott, and Willis and Damon Wayans reportedly hated working with each other. Shane Black had to wrestle with a lot of rewrites, and Bruce Willis was reluctant to do the film, since he felt that it wasn't that different from Die Hard since both films had his character saving his wife, so the wife character was diminished in the script. There was pressure from the studio to make the film even bigger, as a follow-up to Die Hard.

      I'll add to that...I used to work at Universal and did some projects with Dick Donner (director of the Lethal Weapon series and a bunch of other stuff). Shane Black co-wrote Lethal Weapon and he and Dick were fairly close. Black (and Warners) wanted Donner to direct The Last Boy Scout and sent him the first draft script but Dick was committed to another project and couldn't do it. A few weeks later before the Last Boy Scout went into production Donner was telling a bunch of us at dinner one night about the script and how insane it was. Donner shared one part of the script in particular with us. In the opening act where the football player shot his way into the end zone...before he shot himself...the line in the original script was, "I'm going to Disney World!" Needless to say Warner Brothers and Geffen insisted that that line be rewritten to what is on screen in the final cut sooner than fast.

      This thread is my favorite comment section of all time for the simple fact that all the things I was going to bring up in mine, you not only beat me to the punch and already did, but everything you did bring up were all on point and accurate. Which is so gratifying and really refreshing. I remember when this came out, saw it opening night with my buddy who had converted his garage into a Bruce Willis shrine of posters and black n white movie stills. He called it his Fortress Of BruceAtude. But, we were aware of Shane Black big time and the fact Bruce would be saying Shane's snarky penned words seemed like a summit meeting treaty between these two super powers of cinema at the height of their powers. Going in that hyped up for a movie and then still having it exceed our expectations, all our senses and preconceived notions blown out the water right at the jump just from that opening football scene with Billy. Black wrote a purposefully over the top almost Kabuki-esque, borderline camp, grand opera level, attention grabber of a prologue meant to be an over-stylized heightened reality big 80's action opening even though it was '91 and the high hair, high hopes era party was over, the hangover that is Boy Scout is like waking up after a lost weekend bender and still punch drunk. You know what's coming and the inevitability of it all, but you somehow got a reprieve from the gods, a stay of execution before eventually the reaper, angel of death, Lucifer, Final Destination, The Furies, something's ultimately playing the long game and gonna catch up to your ass, wiping the books clean. But, by the grace of God and skin of your teeth, you got a grace period and extra set of downs before you take a knee to run out the clock. You get one more gift. Life is about those precious few moments of stolen joys. The last Boy Scout is that last 80's movie that arrived two years too late and when it was out of style and a craze released passed its time. All the reasons we loved it then and savored it in real time during its theatrical run all the more so for existing in the first place against long odds and even shorter attention spans and muscle memories for movie history. We came out of the theatre feeling slightly punch drunk from the neo-noir theme park ride that was the unholy collaboration of Scott, Black and real life Hollywood caricature coke-whore super-producer Joel Silver who never met a runaway troubled production he couldn't super-size and level up way worse ten-fold or creative differences he mastered the art of problem solving by invoking his signature move of doing even more rails of blow off his personal assistant's ass that just happened to be a helper monkey on loan from Universal. The magic of cinema, baby!
      I digress.
      If you ever read the original Lethal Weapon screenplay, there's a cut scene from the finished film in the script where Roger Murtaugh leans over to his sleeping daughter to kiss her on the head goodnight, but after he does, she sleep-moans her boyfriends name and, as Shane writes in the text, that was the exact moment Roger realized his baby girl was no longer a virgin. It was always a nice throw away moment for the character I liked and found memorable despite it never being filmed. So, it really made me go into a movie nerd fan frenzy back in '91 opening nite when watching Last Boy Scout and this moment was lifted wholesale from the Lethal script, repurposed for the Bruce character in this one with the exact same darkly hilarious payoff of our bad ass co-hero protagonist being just another horrified father. Everybody knows the Shane Black Christmas connectivity of all his movies and recurring theme of two seemingly irredeemable lost souls from opposite ends of a spectrum don't so much cross paths as head on a collision course toward the other and smash on impact. But, from that initial wreckage comes the most hard fought unlikeliest alliance of two souls shared by one locked in mutual madness that forge their own path in a world full of rocky roads, off the beaten path, with no direction but go, with no road to riches or easy street, but plenty of blind alleys and dead-ends, theirs is a journey where the high road's never taken, gettin' the hell outta Dodge like a bat outta hell, wind up just spinning your wheels, every time you wind up going round the bend, you always just end up right back where you start, that's when you start to go and think outside the box, try and reinvent the wheel, but did you trade your mobius strip for a hamster wheel, just another cog in the machine, is this the cycle of life, just a series of wrap arounds, u-turns and double-backs, detours morph into wrong way turns, and manifest destinies all a fate worse than death, lives blow past the points of no return, the open road to the great beyond, is really a vanishing point to the Blvd of broken dreams our last stop, memory lane is just a dead end street, the scenic route set to random shuffle, but stuck on repeat, this slow motion car crash happening at the speed of hell, this reality show I call life feels like a crime scene that's been staged, every Live event we have feels choreographed and rehearsed, anything new with a modern twist sounds like a broken record memory box on its last leg nostalgia tour, but if history repeats itself and life imitates art, then this is a ring of fire and we're in the circle of Hell, we're all circling the drain yet out the loop, the circle of life, yeah, it's just a vicious cycle, destination: unknown, going nowhere, but making good time, getting their fast, it's a full time job now just to look half past dead. Where was I going with all this I don't know. I'm hopped up on NyQuil and antibiotics, peeling this onion all the way down to the dark side of the moon, doggy. Ahhh yeeea.

    If you can believe, the original script was actually darker. The entire production was chaotic. Bruce Willis and producer Joel Silver practically took over the film, and basically strong armed director Tony Scott into following their vision, which was very different from Shane Black’s original script. In addition to Willis clashing with Silver (both had massive egos). And Willis and Damon Wayans absolutely hated each other.
    This was very early in Halle Berry’s career. A month prior, she was in “Strictly Business.” Eddie Griffin & Morris Chestnut also appeared in the film.
    Taylor Negron, a hilarious stand up comedian, was absolutely chilling as Milo. The only person who got positive reviews.
    Fun fact: the character Lee Donowitz in Tony Scott’s “True Romance” was based on Joel Silver (the producer of TLBS). Tony described making the film as having “too many cooks.” Still love the film to this day.

    One of the funniest action comedy movies ever made, but there were a lot of production issues as no one, not one single person liked each other onset. Shane Black hated the final cut of the movie, as it removed a lot of action scenes that were filmed but cut, Damon Wayans liked ghe script, but didn't like Bruce Willis' attitude towards him, Joel Silver and Tony Scott almost got into a fistfight onset, there were even reports that they got into a shouting match with each other. It was a crazy stressful shoot from start to finish.

    The late, great Tony Scott at the helm.
    Shane Black as the hottest screenwriter on the scene at the time.
    A buddy action flick that could stand Toe to Toe with the other classics.
    Willis is perfectly casted (a hero despite himself) and a private investigation business
    was one of his first jobs, pre-acting.
    Wayans doing his first blockbuster feature after 'In Living Colour' fame.
    Halle Berry after her debut in Jungle Fever, same year.
    Martial Arts legend Billy Blanks (football player Billy Cole) in his film debut and
    in the most unexpected moment of the film.
    The one-liners are undenialble.
    Action scenes are off the charts.
    Willis & Wayans were an unlikely pair (it still worked).
    It's all over the place with enough time to keep up with it.
    Btw, Lethal Weapon was playing on the tv
    that Joe's daughter was watching.

    The shot where the mansion explodes in the distance at the end of the film was reused for The Last Action Hero when the glass eye blows up Jack Slater’s ex-wife’s house.
    I read an autobiography of Tony Scott called “Tony Scott: A Filmmaker on Fire” a few years back which described Scott’s experience working with both Bruce Willis and producer Joel Silver as a living hell for everyone due to clashing egos. Joel Silver was so egotistical that as a joke in Scott’s next film True Romance, he had character of character of movie producer Lee Donowitz played by Saul Rubinek because of his appearance and personality resembling Silver.
