8. ‘Lethal Weapon’
Filmed on location in Los Angeles, the filmmakers convinced Hollywood city officials to hang Christmas decorations on Hollywood Boulevard several months before the holiday to shoot scenes from the beloved buddy cop movie Lethal Weapon. Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) and Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) wreak lawful police havoc on L.A. while attempting to take down Shadow Company, a heroin-smuggling operation during the holiday season. Packed with gunfights, explosions, car chases, and hand-to-hand combat, nothing quite says Christmas like Lethal Weapon.
