Favourite Richard Pryor/ Eddie Murphy movies.

This deserves its own thread.

Gotta go with Harlem Nights featuring both.

And the classic Trading Places for Eddie.

The Toy

 

[Bazzar]

Stir Crazy for Pryor. Classic movie.

 

[chefmeister]

Coming To America just for this scene.
IIRC Murphy played all the guys in the barber shop. Possibly even the white man?

 

[Keith Ape]

Pluto Nash or Norbit.

Seriously though, Beverly Hills Cop and See No Evil.

Never got the love for BHC personally.
48 hours tho, that was funny.

Too many classics from Eddie in the ‘80s: Beverly Hills Cop, Trading Places, 48 Hours. For Pryor, Brewster’s Millions.

Both their stand-up is better than their Hollywood stuff though.

Pryor - Brewster's Millions

Murphy - none really though this scene cracks me up. The kid is hilarious.

Yeah even tho I consider fart jokes to be the bottom of the barrel for comedy (RIP Simpsons) this scene did make me laugh on more than one viewing.

 

[Strange Cat]

See no evil

delirious

 

[Richard Pryor]

Fun fact on Trading Places, have heard it was written as a Pryor/Wilder project, when Pryor pulled out it was going to be Murphy and Wilder, but Eddie didn't want to seem like a second rate Pryor and had Wilder replaced.

 

[Richard Pryor]

Probably cheating but can't go past the standup specials. Especially Richard Pryor: Live in Concert and Raw

I love Eddie’s take on Pryor about Cosby in Delrious

Ahhhh it’s very ironic now
