I have the Australian 2-disc version which is definitely uncut. Haven't seen the UK 1-disc version. According to DVD Compare the UK CE is the cut print.

Considering the violence in the film the cut itself is a bit senseless.

Right, daft question but i aint afraid to ask them , so here goes.

What does CE stand for.?

According to DVD Compare the UK Blu-ray is the same as the cut cinema/DVD print. They aren't always the most reliable of sources though. The easiest way is simply to check it.

Collector's Edition.

Yes there are. The UK releases of 2 & 4 still feature the same cuts as before.

Thought so Vince.
Not exactly subtle are they?

Now,here's something that's been playing on my mind since I saw Lethal Weapon 2 back in 1989.When Riggs and Murtaugh are going to the Alba Varden at the end of the movie and they take out the armed guards so see them driving up and then it cuts to them dragging the 3 guards after taking them out.I am convinced I actually saw them taking the guards out when I saw it at the cinema.No-one else I know has ever seen this.Is my mind playing tricks on me? It isn't any of the scenes that was cut by the BBFC and it isn't in any of the U.S. dvds.I'm seriously thinking now that it never happend and I'm a little bit crazy.
