Eddie Murphy - Back to stand up??

[Josh]

"Eddie Murphy has a new movie coming out in theatres this summer but he has revealed to Extra that this is going to be his last movie.

Murphy says, "Fifty years (old) I'll have been making movies thirty years and I have close to fifty movies and it is like why am I in the movies?I've done that part now. I'll go back to the stage and do standup."

It?s sorta weird he says that because Murphy is already committed to 5 other projects. According to IMDB.com, he?s completed one project; he?s currently filming one, one in pre-production, one was just announced and another in production. "

man his recent movies are such garbage

 

[Ilmater]

I'm not sure I can even give him a chance on the stage any more after the horrible movies he's made.

If he had stuck with it and used the Dreamgirls reviews to get into serious roles, I would have given him a shot.

If the bit you posted is his best, he should stick with movies.

Eddie was the KING of standup in the 80s. Delirious & Raw were hilarious.

Eddie Murphy is great at standup. This clip is good NSFW.

 

[Modeps]

could be good, but considering he's clearly lost his edginess, I doubt it will be great.

 

[nervegrind3r]

seriously, hes been shitting the bed for years, he has lost it. Then you watch RAW from 20 years ago and are amazed thats the same eddie murphy. How many times can you be 10 characters in one movie?

 

[indamixx99]

Aw, what's wrong with the Adventures of Pluto Nash?

 

[Slick5150]

The last time he was funny was in Bowfinger. And that was the first time he had been funny in quite awhile. So his funny per movie ratio is pretty terrible.

Now I want to watch The Golden Child.

Awesome movie! Bowfinger is seriously under-rated!

Woww...you have never watched Eddie's stand ups from the 80s? That's crazy. Watch his stand up "Delirious," the quote might make more sense.

 

[Nitemare]

Who will make all the crappy movies that aren't worth the DVD that they are printed on then?

 

[ViviTheMage]

He is a little dated...

 

[aircooled]

Agreed on Bowfinger. Him and Martin did it right. They can do it again.

 

[NewSc2]

Bowfinger, Coming to America, Beverly Hills Cop... he has some good movies. Raw and Delirious were amazing =)
