Why Did Eddie Murphy Fall Off?

Man please... he's the donkey in the monumental Shrek series. He's been a hit and miss guy for at least a decade. Fallen off is a lil extreme.

Common has a slick line about emcees needing to do more deletin' and less savin'. Eddie may need to pass a few more times than he does.

My theory on Eddie is that he does one good movie, one bad movie, then another good movie. Eddie is very connected in Hollywood and knows how to kiss the right asses (probably literally), but he's also extremely talented.

If you think Shrek is BS from a box office & relevance standpoint, thats where we part.

No.

I think a super-rich black man playing the role of an animated Jack Ass with an old Negro "Rochester Voice"is BS.

Look at the Spook By The Door Negro grin on the brothas face.

And people got the nerve to call Rappers minstrels.

Eddie didn't fall off, he wised up.

DV, you must be feeling quite militant today.

You're a little extreme now with the jackass reference though. Must you seek the GSWS in everything? What about the dude who played the Ogre. If Eddie played that role, you would swear he was cooning as the Big Green Ogre. Come on, DV. Must you seek the GSWS in EVERYTHING? Or is it the hollywood Jews this time?

We know you have beef with eddie and Martin for dressing up like women in Big Mama's house, Norbit, Nutty Professor, Klumps, etc. Is that what this is about?

Eddie makes kid movies...at this point in his career. And he makes about 20M per film to do so.
You have kids. Did they not want see ANY of the Shrek or Nutty Prof movies? Or did you refuse to take them because you didn't want to expose your kids to the GSWS?

Sometimes, you just go into the theatre, turn off your brain, and laugh at the corniness.

It's ok to laugh sometimes, DV.

(What you gon' hit me with, how it's not funny to watch another black man coon and degrade himself for millions of white people?...Nah..that was too predictable)

Besides, I read recently that he isn't doing any more movies and going back to stand up.

Cuz he sold his soul. He is just ripping of Hollywood. When he mentioned BHC 3, he tells you that he did that just for money. Futhermore, he's a dead beat dad. Namely to the child with Mel B
