Comedy Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley

[Dr. Evil]

Hey! I d love a police Academy remake!

They would have to do it without the guy who played Tackleberry. Sadly, he passed away 6 or 7 years ago.

 

[TNC9852002]

Ok, I REAAAAAAAAALY hope they take this as seriously as they did with Die Hard, Rambo, and Rocky, because Eddie Murphy's remarkable talent has been slowly dying with viewers along with a lot of his recent trend of big movie failures, so I'm really hoping that they do this one right so that people will give this guy another chance. Norbit and his upcoming movie Meet Dave is gonna need all the help it can get for Murphy.

(BTW, Eddie Murphy gives a very good comedic performance in Norbit, in despite of the movie itself not being very funny at all...does that make sense?)

"Donny, run and tell Miss Summers that, uh, Mister Achmed Foley is here to see her... "
"No, *Axel* Foley. Axel."
"Achnell...? Achwell... "
"Axel"
"...Foley is here to see her, he's an old acquaintance."

I stopped when I read the words Brett and Ratner. Let this series die, especially after that god-awful film 3.

 

[Mr. Credible]

i don't mind ratner directing this.

it's right up his alley, really, if he can get back to his rush hour 1 (and to a lesser extent) 2 days, and not that rush hour 3 junk.

eddie murphy is pretty washed up, too, but so was harrison ford up until indy 4, and people seemed to forget that once the movie came out.

 

[turtlefocker]

Honestly 2 and 3 were garbage. Ratner is in a safe place. There is nothing to ****-up here....

2 was awesome. 3 was okay. But you're right. Ratner can't mess this up.

Just for clarification, since you disagreed with what I said about the sequels, is the bolded part sarcasm?

 

[Rac]

I never really cared for the previous movies. So you know, I don't care for this one either.

 

[Joker]

I liked 2, but 3 was a huge dissapointment. Is this going to be rated R still? Cause if they do some family friendly PG-13 crap, I dont care at all.

 

[Catman]

Well...the third movie isn't hard to beat so Ratner should be alright.

FOX has nothing to do with this movie. So...stay calm.

Yeah, but Eddie Murphy has things to do with it, and it seems to me doing a movie even as "edgy" as the first and 2nd Beverly Hills Cops would go against his whole "family friendly" thing.

 

[Catman]

I doubt Murphy wants to upset the fans by making a PG-13 movie.

 

[BloodyWolverine]

Hey! I d love a police Academy remake!

The first 4 were good as Police Academy but the rest were meh. If they do a remake Micheal Clark Duncan should play Hightower.

 

[TheVileOne]

It will be PG-13 just like Die Hard 4 and probably the new Terminator movies .

Figures Ratner would do this. Most hilarious thing ever is during the Rush Hour 3 commentary the way he keeps talking about the movie being a "very real thriller". LOL, like he thought the movie was Bourne Ultimatum or something, the movie that decimated Rush Hour 3 last year which horrendously underperformed and helped put New Line Cinema out of business.

Out of control budget, actor demands, and salaries for Rush Hour 3 are the kinds of things why New Line folded.

All these old movies from the 80's and 90's getting fourth movies now. Die Hard 4, Rambo 4, Indy 4, and now Beverly Hills Cop 4. What other 4th movies are we missing?

BACK TO THE FUTURE 4

 

[chamber-music]

Was it the role of Winston that he turned down? If so, that role made Ernie Hudson a known name.

Alas, we will never see the 80's Eddie Murphy that was so great.

Yeah Dan Akroyd wrote the part of Winston for Murphy and he was originally written to of been the smartest of all the ghostbusters with multiple PHD's and an ex-Marine. Because he couldn't/wouldn't do it they cut the role down and cast ernie hudson.

 

[hame4479]

Please be rated R and please let eddy be hilarious again.

WTF? Beverly Hills Cop 4 Rated PG?
By Edgar 'El Toro' Arce on June 3, 2008

According to a story on MTV Movie Blog, Brett Ratner who was recently announced that he would be directing a new Beverly Hills Cop has a bit of an update for new audiences.

According to Ratner, new audiences do not have the history of the fouled mouth character that was Axel Foley. So today’s version would probably be geared towards 10 and 12 year old, giving us a more PG rated Beverly Hills Cop Light. Fans…..I am virtually speechless.

“10-year-old kids, 12-year-old kids don’t really know the old ‘Beverly Hills Cop.’ So it’s an opportunity to make it new for kids,” Ratner said. “The same way it felt for me watching ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ when I was a kid, that’s what I want to do for kids today.”

HAHAHAHAHA


I just died a little inside

 

[The Joker]

Brett Ratner's doing it? Oh god!

Murphy will do literally anything these days. His movie career in the last 10-15 years has been horrible.

 

[Symbiotic]

Aw crap! *headdesk* I had a feeling this would happen.

I understand Murphy doing it sicne he sold his soul a long time ago... But I don't get how braindead studios can be. Anytime this happens it always ends horribly, you can go R to PG-13 ala Die Hard 3 to Die Hard 4 or Scary Movie 2 to 3 but you can not go R to PG ala Robocop 2 to Robocop 3. It does not work all it does is alienate the fanbase and leave people confused and baffled. Seriously this has turkey written all over it especially after the snafu known as Beverly Hills Cop 3.
