Oh my God, that scene with Kung Fu Joe was fucking hilarious. lol

Police alarm siren

Kung Fu Joe stops car, mumbles some Kung Fu gibberish while the cop gets out.

Cop: "You mind getting out of your car?"

Kung Fu Joe: "What seems to be the problem officer?"

Cop: "Just step out of the car."

Kung Fu Joe steps out and mumbles more Kung Fu gibberish and does Kung Fu moves while the cop has him face the car

Alarm: Your door is ajar, please close the door, your door is ajar

Cop pulls out what looks like some type of drug not sure if it's coke or weed

Cop: "Well look what we have here..."

Alarm (in pissed off sister voice): "I SAID CLOSE THE DOOR SHITHEAD!"

Kung Fu Joe: "Seems like you punks trying to set me up huh?!"

(Kung Fu Fighting plays and Kung Fu Joe fights the police officers)

Kung Fu Joe (after grabbing one officer): Something about "Splinters, have a nice winter" or something lol

"Wooo I'm gonna kick some ass now..."

Tons of police cars swirl around him

Kung Fu Joe: "So just you 57 punks against Kung Fu Joe?! Master of KARATE! KUNG FU! JUJITSU! ...and all that other shit you ain't never heard of. HAHAHAHA!"

(COPS SHOOT HIM)

falloff


Then he only appears in two other scenes, the first after he's about blown to smithereens trying to call Slade and em but being told they ain't home ("aw homie ain't home?!") and then near the end when he comes near where Slade, Jack and them have taken down Mr. Big, Willie and em and reaches a cop and says, "Slade... I must...find Slade. KUNG FU JOE IS HERE!" like he's dying. Then after the cop says "sorry brother they're already gone." Kung Fu Joe paused for a minute, breathes heavily and then says...

"Yo brother, you got a band aid?"

I wonder did Eddie write that. lol It sounds like something he would write especially the "completely free from infection, to be used at your discretion" part. falloff I love how dude kept staying hitting those operatic notes and then when he stopped he went back to his stone face. lol Actually him singing like that made it funny to me. Vanessa Bell Armstrong looked real beautiful during that scene though. She cracked me up when she barked like a dog after Eddie wondered if she would really do it. lol This is what finally causes him to go to New York. lol

my fav Eddie Murphy films

Trading Places

Coming to America

The Nutty Professor

Harlem Nights

AND

NORBIT (you just can't beat his performances as Rasputia and Mr. Wong)

Boomerang was good but that was too much an ensemble cast for me to give all credit to Eddie.

My favorites from Eddie are 48 Hrs, Trading Places, Beverly Hills Cop I, The Golden Child, Coming to America, Nutty Professor (first one; second one was overblown IMO) and Harlem Nights. I did love Norbit too. After watching it, I didn't understand all the flack. I didn't think Eddie was gonna win the Oscar anyway after seeing how some people get it with the other awards won for the role they play. lol Bowfinger was also a good one. When Eddie gets good, he gets GOOD. "Raw" is also one of my favorite movies from him even if it is just a stand-up.

IIRC, the flack over Norbit was because the character was an overweight black woman but my thought was "and?" We can find humor in every group of people and it doesnt have to mean the group is being put down or degraded.

I loved Eddie Griffin and Katt Williams as the pimps Pope Sweet Jesus and Lord Have Mercy.

I have to check out Bowfinger and also Tower Heist. Heard both were good.

Yeah Eddie Griffin and Katt were great in their roles. nod I heard Tower Heist was good too. The promotion sucked though. I seriously want Eddie to go back to stand-up though. He's sadly missed. I don't think he's done stand-up since the early 1990s. I thought he had quit stand-up following the end of "Raw" but I listened to his comedy hits retrospective and one of the two final jokes were recorded in 1990...
