Loaded Weapon 1 is a 1993 spoof movie released under the National Lampoon banner. It was directed by Gene Quintano, whom you may remember for writing a few of the Police Academy sequels.Emilio Estevez and Samuel L. Jackson star as Detectives Colt and Luger in a direct parody of the Lethal Weapon movies and buddy cop film tropes (Odd Couple, Police Procedural, etc.). The two cops — Colt is unhinged after recently losing a loved one, while Luger is a stable family man — are teamed up to investigate how and why Wilderness Girl Cookies are being laced with cocaine. Other films that provide grist for the comedy mill here include The Silence of the Lambs and Basic Instinct, while Kathy Ireland, William Shatner, Tim Curry and Jon Lovitz round out the supporting cast.And no, there is no sequel in case you were wondering. | |

| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_127fc252 | comment |
Creator Cameo: Robert Shaye, head of New Line Cinema, makes an (uncredited) appearance in the interrogation room; he's the guy sitting to Luger's left. His sister, scream queen Lin Shaye, makes an appearance as a witness. | |

Genre Savvy: Destiny may be the Brainless Beauty but she's smart enough to be worried about the Disposable Woman trope, and rightfully so since she gets shot. Happily she gets better. | |

| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Emilio's brother Charlie Sheen cameos as a valet. Also, Bruce Willis has a cameo later in the film as John McClane. His mobile home is destroyed by accident because the villains got the address wrong. Willis agreed to do the cameo as a favor to his brother David Willis, who is one of the producers of the film. The film is just loaded with em. Corey Feldman as a rookie cop, Phil Hartman as Officer Davis (the unfunny standup cop), Frank McRae as Da Chief, Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox as Ponch and Jon, Paul Gleason as an FBI Special Agent, James Doohan as Officer Scotty, F. Murray Abraham as Harold Leacher, Richard Moll as the prison attendant... | |

Visual Pun: During the Basic Instinct parody, "Gratuitous beaver shot", where Destiny briefly turns into an actual beaver. While interrogating Becker, Luger tells him that he's got a box of matches which says he's lying. Those words are literally written on the back of said box. | |

| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_26c22470 | comment |
Put Down Your Gun and Step Away: Parodied and invoked. Jigsaw has a gun pointed to Colt's head, and Luger bursts in. Jigsaw orders Luger to throw down his gun or he'll shoot Colt. Luger says he doesn't have a weapon on him, because he doesn't believe in them. Jigsaw kicks a gun towards Luger and orders him to pick it up. As soon as he does, Jigsaw orders him to drop the gun. | |

Funny Background Event | |
| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: Look closely at the framed pictures in the police captain's office. There are a few pictures of donuts. This ties in with Donut Mess with a Cop, of course. During the scene parodying Basic Instinct, watch the spectators in the stands; they progressively lose more and more clothing until they're down to their boxers when the "gratuitous beaver shot" occurs. At the marina, Colt completely fails to notice Popeye getting mugged behind him. | |

| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_2badd3a3 | comment |
Narrow Parody: Spoofs the Lethal Weapon series and buddy cop movies in general, plus other films of then-recent vintage (late 1980s/early 1990s). The reveal that Colt's lost partner Claire is a dog is even funnier for those who remember there were two late-'80s films about a cop teaming up with a dog, Turner and Hooch and K-9. | |

No One Should Survive That!: Numerous instances already mentioned on the page, but one that hasn't is Colt jumping off a tall bridge in an attempt to land on the villain's passing car, but landing face-first on the pavement instead. He makes a nice clean indent in the pavement and, after a few seconds, gets up, mildly irritated but having no visible injuries. Of course, it is a spoof movie, so... | |

Also, in the middle of the movie, a bomb causes Colt and Luger's car to explode. They weren't in it, though. Don't forget the taxi. And the bikes. And the boat. | |

Spoofed the Ironic Film Seriously: While it has plenty of fodder to use in the Buddy Cop genre, this movie had the problem in directly targeting a film series that obviously didn't take itself all that seriously to begin with.

Somehow, he still manages to gain entrance to York's house despite the horrible disguise. | |

Sequel Hook: Played with in the movie itself. After the climax, the police captain urges Luger to reconsider his retirement, and Luger agrees only if Colt is his partner. The captain thinks it can be arranged, and Colt and Luger say simultaneously: "Sequel." | |

Plot Hole | |
| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_6331ba26 | comment |
Plot Hole: Ever wonder why Colt is suddenly carrying a teddy bear as he runs after Jigsaw halfway through the film? In the extended cut, he won the teddy bear in marksmanship while pursuing Jigsaw. One wonders why they couldn't leave that one bit in so that scene made more sense. Because then it would make more sense. Its a spoof, after all. | |

Serious Business: At the start of the film, two men walk up to the convenience store clerks with nylons and one of them calmly asks, "Excuse me. Do you have any of these in taupe?" When the clerk says no, one of the guys says, "And you call THIS a convenience store?!" and both proceed to put said nylons over their heads, demanding cash or they'll shoot the clerks dead. Destiny is appalled with Mortars less because he is involved with the drug trade than because he is using the Wilderness Girl Cookies of America to sell them, because everyone trusts Wilderness cookies. | |

Meaningful Echo: When Colt and Luger are investigating the case, Colt says Luger's more interested in playing by the book than of cracking the case. Luger protests that he's not going to make up the rules as he goes. In the climax, Mortars has Colt at gunpoint and gloats that Luger won't shoot him, because he plays by the book. Luger remarks, "Sometimes, general, you make the rules up as you go." and shoots Mortars dead. | |

Hero Insurance: At the start of the movie, Jack Colt starts a shootout with robbers that results in an entire store being destroyed, causing far more damage then the robbers would have caused if he just let them take the money. | |

Think Nothing of It: Parodied. Colt takes care of the thugs who tried to rob the convenience store in the beginning, but is nevertheless shouted at by the Indian clerks for causing massive damage to their store during the shootout. However, Colt is ignorant of their anger (partially because they're shouting in another language that he doesn't know), and replies, "Nah, don't thank me. I'm just a cop, doing his job." | |

Colt kicks open the bathroom door to find Luger on the toilet. He asks, "What's wrong?" Luger, confused, says, "...Nothing. Takin' a shit." A flush is heard soon after. | |

Danger Takes a Backseat: Parodied. At one point as Colt and Luger are driving along, they realize they're "being followed," whereupon it is revealed that two of General Mortars' Mooks are just casually sitting in the backseat armed with machine guns. Our heroes "lose" them by swiftly turning around, and through the magic of Rule of Funny, this causes the two henchmen to simply not be in the car anymore. | |

The Coroner: Dr. Joyce Brothers is the coroner investigating York's killing. In an amusing twist, she's portrayed as surly and insensitive: | |

Brainless Beauty: The beautiful Destiny literally has nothing between her ears (see In One Ear, Out The Other below.) Doesn't seem to keep her from being Genre Savvy though. Or from knowing a lot about guns. | |

Product Placement | |
| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Luger parodies a Head and Shoulders shampoo advertisement. It's a set-up for a later joke that seems to be parodying a Gold Bond foot powder ad, but as it turns out, Irv's foot is just on fire. In a straight example, there are numerous name brands on display at the convenience store in the beginning, including Jonny Cat kitty litter. | |

Fun with Subtitles | |
| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_fdb355db | comment |
Fun with Subtitles: During the climax, Colt sneaks into the villain warehouse and two German, Nazi-esque guards exchange small talk, complete with subtitles. However, after they leave the scene, the subtitles remain, and Colt trips on them like they're part of the scenery. Towards the beginning, the subtitles state the obvious when showing York's house: "Night. A house." In the same scene: | |

Brick Joke | |
| Loaded Weapon 1 / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: Early in the film, a woman is describing an assailant to a police sketch artist. The drawing is revealed to be Mr. Potato Head. A few scenes later, in the background, we see two cops arresting Mr. Potato Head. The convenience store that was shot up in the beginning appears a few scenes later in the underground prison, in a temporary facility housed in one of the cells. Speaking of the convenience store, when Colt first arrives, he throws a sandwich in the microwave. After the shootout, the microwave dings; his sandwich is smoking and ruined. Amusingly, Colt blames it on the microwave. | |
