Eddie Murphy visiting Spike Lee on the set of The Blackest Eskimo
Lorenzo Di Bonaventura reportedly wants to do another Beverly Hills Cop movie (since the last one was such a masturpiece), but the studios aren't sold on the idea of Eddie Murphy going back to R-rated stuff. Says Di Bonaventura:
I think it's going to be a really interesting debate and it's one we're going to have for a while. That's what I want [an R rating]. Will you guys call Paramount and tell them that? The studios says their research is telling them PG. I'm with you. I won't do it if it's PG-13.
One wonders if this "research" also decided Norbit was a good idea. "Well, our studies show that Eddie Murphy + fat suit = money. This idea can't fail." But regardless of how they feel, I have a solution. The studios don't want to jeopardize Eddie Murphy's family friendly status, but no one wants to see an emasculated Beverly Hills Cop. Fine. Solution? Charlie Murphy.
See that, morons? That's why you have to wear a suit to work and I don't even have to wear pants. Masturbating at our desks is the one thing we seem to agree on.

I miss the R rated Murphy. He needs to dump this kiddie bull$h!t and go back to dropping F-bombs and shooting folks.

I like the Charlie Murphy idea, it wouldn't work but I like the idea.
What the heck are Eddie's people worried about. He made Norbit for Gods sake. Cursing out a nun in front of a preschool wouldn't be as bad as that damn movie.
Eddie, you owe me $8.50 and a hour of my life back. (I left the theater early)
