Another remarked: “And apparently Danny Glover was only about 41 when he was ‘too old for this s***’ in the original Lethal Weapon. I turn 39 next year.”
One posted: “I’m sure it existed before Lethal Weapon, if not literally, then definitely in spirit, but when I found out that Danny Glover was 41 when Lethal Weapon came out, him uttering that line that became so ridiculous.”
