That article from Hitfix really hit home about not just how disappointing his appearance at SNL 40 was but also in the fact that he doesn't seem to really want to do anything challenging anymore. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-80253268556789781662015-03-06T13:32:23.172-05:002015-03-06T13:32:23.172-05:00That is an outstanding story!

It's amazing that he made up much of it right on the spot.

I was a college freshman in 1984 (yes, I'm THAT old! :-) ) and Mom had taken my 14 y/o brother and me to the buttcrack of Mississippi to spend Christmas with relatives. There was nothing to do in town, since we'd gotten a bit old to play in the town dump :-P, so we drove to the next town to find a movie theater. This was the only thing playing that appealed to us. (There were only 2 movies screening in town). So we watched it every day. By the last viewing, we laughed at all the jokes before the actors said them. We loved Axel Foley! Eddie Murphy at his best.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06574641672605054506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-14245225927843194052015-03-06T09:22:06.530-05:002015-03-06T09:22:06.530-05:00This is an incredible bit of trivia that goes to s...This is an incredible bit of trivia that goes to show, sometimes classics weren't always meant to be classics, which makes their classic status all the more impressive.<br /><br />I can't believe I still need to see this...<br /><br />EEK!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-29111422080046685462015-03-06T07:25:14.635-05:002015-03-06T07:25:14.635-05:00By being allowed to improvise so much he certainly...By being allowed to improvise so much he certainly put his mark all over it.

I need Eddie to start making R-rated flicks again. I think he'd still be great in some of these raunchy comedies that keep coming out.Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-40182378694513012432015-03-06T04:29:25.468-05:002015-03-06T04:29:25.468-05:00I don't think I could imagine anyone else play...I don't think I could imagine anyone else playing the role. I enjoyed Beverly Hills Cop, and much of it had to do with Eddie Murphy! The movie would certainly be a lot different if the other contenders took a shot at it.

Mickey Rourke is a great actor but he's not right for Axel Foley. Neither was Sly and that would've been a disaster. Thank goodness for Eddie Murphy at that time. He would become one of my favorites at that time as my parents loved him at that time. Boy, that was a long time ago. Look at him now. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.com
