    As an Eddie Murphy fan, I took his talent for granted and his influence on black culture... Chris Rock, Chappelle, Kevin Hart, Key and Peele, and more people that I can't think of now. I took Eddie's talent for granted. I don't anymore.

      Since Eddie is into doing sequels, one sequel he really should do before he officially retires is NUTTY PROFESSOR 3. Why? Because Arsenio Hall said it best that,, NOBODY IS BETTER THAN EDDIE MURPHY AT PLAYING MULTIPLE CHARACTERS IN MOVIES. Plus, I don't think we've seen the best of everything Eddie Murphy is capable of in movies where he gets to show a broad range of his talents.

    Eddie is awesome. Huge fan and have been since I was a kid. Grew up loving his talents. I saw Trading Places when I was 10 years old summer 1984. First movie of his I saw in theaters was Beverly Hills Cop and I was a couple months from turning 11 years old. It changed my life and I have been a fan ever since. He’s the G.O.A.T

    I definitely agree with Eddie when he says there’s no such thing as a flop. Because every single movie or anything he’s ever done or been apart of, someone out there enjoys it for whatever reason. Regardless of how popular a thing is, anything that he’s done in his career resonates with people. Like for me, even tho Beverly Hills Cop 3 is not the most loved out of the 3, I really love that movie. BHC3 was the first movie I’ve seen out of the 3. I definitely think 1 and 2 are better but 3 holds a special place in my heart because I grew up watching that movie. I wasn’t alive when 1 and 2 came out but I was a kid in the 90’s and BHC3 came out in 94.

      To be fair though, if he didn't let his ego get in the way (which is earned), he would have made way more solid films. Aside from My Name is Dolemite (which is still just good, not great), he hasn't done anything worthwhile in about 17 years.

    1) If you're not a pre-1980 baby, you'll never understand the REAL TIME experience of 2 Black American males (Michael Jackson and Eddie Murphy)...dominating pop culture. ESPECIALLY 1984--1988.
    My Mom pulled my brothers and I from school (in East Harlem/Spanish Harlem)....to see Beverly Hills Cop on a Friday afternoon. It was a nice, balmy day...in Spring. 1984. We saw it in the 86th Street theater and it was packed. We were all laughing our azzes off !! Eddie was right. He wasn't a side character. He wasn't just comic relief. We was an action star and proud (sometimes arrogant), Black male. He opened many doors and opportunities, for the Black male actors who followed him. The audience was ethnically-mixed.
    Michael Jackson and Eddie Murphy. 1984--1988. You had to be there.
    2) MUST these Euro-American reporters constantly inject their political biases; to provoke Black Americans!!? Y'all constantly try to manipulate our emotions (after you take a break from fetishizing us)....and it's ANNOYING to experience....or, hear. Trump? Come on🙄

    As a dude 10 years younger than the God Eddie Murphy, less than 20 miles from where I'm from in NY. Watching his rise was one of my greatest memories on this planet. He broke through barriers that had never been broken. The funniest SNL skit is where he dressed up as a whiteboy in Manhattan and got loans for free and exposed how white people really acted when Blacks weren't around. It was liberating to watch such feats. The amount of discouragement that a young Black child has to face being born on this planet, and you start noticing how unfair the world is around 4 years old, and to have someone like Mr. Murphy just bust through the Hollywood walls with charisma and an unadulterated lack of fear like a native New Yorker will always sit with me in a different type of way. He never sold out no matter what, but he did take some bruises in his career, but he never let that stop him. Salute to you family and all your endeavors. I feel sorry for these newer generations to not have been able to witness what this man accomplished in real time for it was like watching a meteor hit the Earth surface. Celebrity isn't celebrity no more, especially in this reality star era, but Eddie is the epitome of what a celebrity is, and to listen to this interview and hear his honesty and vulnerability on this level is truly a blessing considering this type of an in depth interview didn't exist back when. Peace 🙌🏾

    As much as I love Eddie, him taking credit as "the first" black international star and the first main attraction in comedy is a bit of a stretch. Within a certain context, yes, but it's being said in a way that's too broad for people who don't know history. There are far too many other groundbreaking artists who laid the foundation for him. People who made him possible. Granted, he definitely raised the bar, but the "first" this and that is too extreme to be valid. Nonetheless, what a talent and legend!

    I believe the 2 greatest comedians of all time, are Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy, but in learning about both men and their life stories, they couldn’t be more different in personality and mentality. Pryor was flawed and relatable. Murphy was a comedic prodigy, supremely confident in his ability and who he was. He didn’t make the same life altering mistakes that Pryor made. But then again, he didn’t experience some of the horrible things that Pryor experienced. Both reached the top of their field, taking completely different journeys to get there.

They tried to run with a joke that could ruin his reputation and accomplishments. Eddie Murphy’s career put a lot of money in people’s pockets. He made vehicles that brought work to black talent and legends. Boomerang, Coming To America, Harlem Nights. Think of all the careers sustained and launched on Eddie’s box office status.

None of the white ones who did bad movies. As a man of his age from that era, he can see how he’s being singled out.
