Which is your favorite movie of the '80s starring Eddie Murphy.

And, if you like, rank them in order or preference.

I agree.

My favorites are Trading Places, Beverly Hills Cop, and 48 Hours.

I'm not sure of the order though- only because Beverly Hills Cop has been played out to death on TV and I don't want that to undermine my opinion.

I vote Trading Places

*MIBabe03* · 10-10-2003, 06:21 PM

Trading Places.

eringoblah · 10-10-2003, 08:02 PM

Trading Places is it.

TJL · 10-10-2003, 08:16 PM

Trading Places is okay, but I really enjoy 48 Hours.

Close second, Beverly Hills Cop.

48 Hrs, Beverly Hills Cop, Beverly Hills Cop 2, The Golden Child, Harlem Nights are my favorite Eddie movies. I especially love Beverly Hills Cop 1 & 2 cause Eddie had good chemistry with Taggert & Billy Rosewood. I like how Eddie would always pretend he was somebody else in the Beverly Hills Cop movies. LOL@Eddie in Beverly Hills Cop 2 when he went to that gun club & he pretended like he had some explosives in that brown paper bag. When he got past that lady with that bag, he threw it away & he talked to the guy who owned the club. Eddie asked him about a shell casing for a gun & the owner asked him where did u get that from & Eddie said it was a christmas gift. Eddie said Charles Bronson is a close friend of the family & he gave me this for christmas hahahahahahahahahahaha. I also like the part when Eddie stole those people's house & he was in the swimming pool when Taggert & Rosewood came to see him. Eddie said hey i got beer & orange juice, put on your swimming trunks & dive into the pool, it's party time hahahahahahahaha. Taggert said you've stolen this house. Eddie said this is my cousin's house. Billy said is your cousin in rock & roll LOL.

Beverly Hills Cop III shouldn't even been made without Taggert. That's why it sucked cause John Ashton wasn't in it.
