Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Martin Riggs is played by Mel Gibson.

Answer: True

He is my favorite actor of all time. This was probably one of his best movies, along with "Braveheart".

2. Who plays Roger Murtaugh?

Answer: Danny Glover

Samuel L. Jackson was actually in a spoof of this movie called "National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon I," also starring Emilio Estevez and William Shatner.

3. Lycia Naff is the actress who plays Amanda Hunsacker.

Answer: False

Lycia Naff is actually the actress who plays Dixie, the hooker questioned by police after Amanda's death. (And to all of you who think that the actress is actually Pam Grier, please do not send me a note telling me so. I have checked and rechecked this fact many times and every cast list I've gone to has said that the actress was Lycia Naff.

In fact, Pam Grier was not even in this movie.)

4. Which of the following actors plays Joshua?

Answer: Gary Busey

Damon Hines played Nick Murtaugh, Tom Atkins played Michael Hunsacker, and Mitch Ryan played General Peter McAllister.

5. "Jingle Bells" is the song that plays in the beginning of the movie before Amanda jumps out of the window.

Answer: False

The song that plays is actually "Jingle Bell Rock".

6. What kind of gun does Riggs carry?

Answer: 9mm Baretta

Roger told Riggs that he carried a six-shooter (a "4-inch Smith") and Riggs said, "A lot of old-timers carry those."

7. Riggs was in the Vietnam War.

Answer: True

So were Murtaugh and Hunsacker. The two of them had fought together, then Hunsacker went on to work with Air America and Shadow Company.

8. Is there a part in the movie where Riggs is thought to be dead?

Answer: Yes

Joshua shot Riggs, who fell through the glass window of a store. Murtaugh went to make sure he was all right, and for the briefest of moments, he thought Riggs might be dead. But he was wearing his vest (for once), so he was alright.

9. Riggs tried to kill himself after he jumped off the building.

Answer: True

Murtaugh gave him a gun and told Riggs to kill himself, but then intervened at the last second. Riggs also tried to kill himself in the very beginning of the movie, when he was in his trailer looking at a picture of his late wife.

10. What was the name of the boy Rianne was dating, and who was later killed?

Answer: Mark

He was the blonde one with "pits in his face," as Murtaugh put it.

11. Alfred, the little boy who saw a blonde man go to Dixie's house, said that the man had a tattoo. What was the tattoo?

Answer: Special forces tattoo

It was exactly the same tattoo that Riggs had on his arm.

12. On which arm does Riggs wear his watch?

Answer: Right

Not an important part of the movie, I know, but interesting all the same.

13. In the beginning, Riggs was testing drugs before he busted the drug dealers selling them. How many drug dealers were there?

Answer: 4

We saw three at first, but one was hiding behind a tree and tried to shoot Riggs, but he missed Riggs and hit one of the other drug dealers instead.

14. How old was Riggs when he killed a guy from "a thousand yards out"?

Answer: 19

"Maybe 8 or even 10 guys in the world could've made that shot. It's the only thing I was ever good at."

15. Michael Hunsacker was holding a carton of milk when Joshua shot and killed him from the helicopter.

Answer: False

He was actually holding a carton of eggnog.

Answer: Burbank

Sam is the name of Riggs' dog, and the other two I just made up.

17. What birthday did Roger celebrate in the beginning of the movie?

Answer: 50th

As he said many times during the movie, "I'm too old for this."

18. What did Captain Murphy say about Roger's beard after Roger had shaved it?

Answer: He looked younger with it

Rianne had said that he looked older with the beard.

19. Why did Murtaugh try to attack Riggs in the beginning when Riggs pulled out his gun in the police station?

Answer: He thought he was a crook

Roger ran towards Riggs yelling, "Gun!", but Riggs ended up pinning him to the ground.

20. Riggs jumped off of the building with the clerk because Riggs wanted to kill himself.

Answer: False

He actually did it just to get the other guy off the building. That was one of the funniest parts of the whole movie.

21. What Indian name did Riggs call Roger in the movie?

Answer: Cochise

"We got the edge, Cochise." I actually thought that Riggs was saying "goat cheese" the first few times I saw the movie.

22. Who did McAllister and Joshua kidnap to get Murtaugh to tell them what Hunsacker told him?

Answer: Rianne

"We don't want your daughter. We just wanna know what Hunsacker told you."

23. How did Joshua finally end up dying?

Answer: Shot

Riggs was going to break his neck, but said it wasn't worth it. Then, both he and Roger shot and killed Joshua when he tried to grab a uniformed cop's gun. McAllister had a car crash and was killed when the car exploded.

24. Who has a huge crush on Riggs?

Answer: Rianne

She shows it throughout the movie, and he notices it time and time again.
