Line 4:
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]/[[California Doubling]]: The guy who says "Bravo" after the first building was blown up in the third film? None other than Bill Frederick, then the mayor of Orlando, Florida. The building used was Orlando's old City Hall building. Those familiar with the city will also recognize the SunTrust Center, the Orlando Utilities Commission building, and the new/current City Hall (which had a Coca-Cola sign planted on it). You can even make out a TV van from local ABC affiliate WFTV during the implosion.
** The building imploded post-credits was in St. Petersburg, Florida.
* [[Playing Against Type]]: Kind of; Leo Getz, like most of [[Joe Pesci]]'s characters, is a hot-headed little guy with a [[Hair-Trigger Temper]], but where most of Pesci's well-known characters tended to back this up by being genuinely dangerous and often psychotic thugs, Leo's pretty much harmless, a bit of a [[Butt Monkey]] and for all his bluster a pretty nice guy.
* [[Star-Making Role]]: ''Lethal Weapon 4'' is the film responsible for introducing American audiences to [[Jet Li]].
* [[What Could Have Been]]: The late [[Christopher Reeve]] of Superman fame reportedly turned down the role of Martin Riggs, which went to [[Mel Gibson]].
