Should be a collection really.

I'm sure they'll all get a 4K release, but I never expected a set, it'll be one at a time. I'll certainly be buying them, but I do think the Blu-rays look great, still my favourite Blu-ray box set, & as usual I'll be watching 1&2 over the Christmas holidays (hopefully 1&2 in 4K at Christmas '25).

I actually do expect a box set when popular movie franchises like this one get released. I don’t like the ham and egg it approach. Give me all of them at once.

I'd like to see the 'Director's cut' versions available via seamless branching but guess that will never happen as they were just a product of the DVD era and seem to remain that way.

A series like Lethal Weapon really should have been available in a box set alongside the individual release, I'd imagine a large proportion of the fan base would want all four movies, this isn't a Die Hard 5 scenario.

Was waiting for this but yeah would like to see tall four films get the 4K treatment.

Well based on some of the titles listed in this leaked schedule I see a pattern with A Nightmare On Elm Street and Blade - where they release the first one and then much later (or much much later in the case of Blade) they release the other films in the series only as part of a collection. If that’s Warners new release plan the remaining Lethal Weapons might only appear as a collection a year or so after the stand alone first one (which according to that schedule is planned for May next year).

Hoping Dirty Harry is on the list somewhere.

I hope we finally get all the deleted scenes as we are missing the alternate opening with Martin in the bar drinking and getting into a fight.

There are so many others we never got for the sequels too but mentioned and clips have been shown.

How trustworthy are these leaks though, because not that long ago a leak about Gremlins 2 and Lolita among other titles was supposedly leaked too.

Idk about Lolita but Gremlins 2 is legit, somebody posted about working on a new soundmix for a re-release not too long back.

It’s fake, the screenshots, the titles… all of it, it’s all fake.

AI. It needed some cats to be believable.

For me the DC is an interesting addition but I think it ruins the Riggs character introduction of the theatrical.

While we’re talking Shane Black related movies, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang will be 20 years old next year!
20th Anniversary 4K of that one too please Warner Bros.

10th Anniversary of The Nice Guys the year after too. Before he lost his magic touch anyway.

What i find disappointing is that Gravity is still nowhere to be found

This is a weird one. On iTunes it’s 1080p with an Atmos track.

I actually like the "DC" of LETHAL - the deleted scenes are legit good (unlike the cutting room floor sweepings stuck back into the sequels) and add layers to the characters. The sniper scene is great.

I just wonder if we'll ever see the whole of the opening scene in the bar. The snippets are nice enough (showcasing a few actors who turned up in different roles in the sequels) but it'd be great to see the whole it, which combined with the sniper scene to introduce a really damaged Riggs.
