For those who don't want to read the article. David Spade joked that if people wanted to see a falling star go see Eddie Murphy in "Vampire in Brooklyn" movie in 1995.

That is racist. That's it.

Beverly Hills cop isn’t going to do well. The movies didn’t age well at all and it’s definitely going to be filled with race bait.

I haven't seen them in a long time, but why didn't they age well?

David Spade (Whoever that is)

The guy who played Joe Dirt. Another SNL comedian. Also kind of based. Back in 2008 Phoenix PD was complaining they were having cartel problems and Spade gave them $100k to buy a bunch of AR-15s.

The little blond guy that follows Adam Sandler around. Him and the fat guy from King of Queens are like Adam Sandler's best buddies. Always in each other's films. None of them have made anything amazing in well over a decade and having recently watched some of their older flicks... I think they were 90s schlock that got over hyped and we're probably pushed hard by somebody powerful.

Pluto Nash was a career killer years later. No matter what you thought about Eddie Murphy by then, that film was a dumpster fire that was riddled with production problems, budget concerns, and regret from everyone involved.

Eddie has really disappointed me. His comedy back then was great and his movies were awesome. He found that racist? Crazy

Falling star? In 1995?

Two Eddie Murphy movies I really like came out after 1995.

The remake of The Nutty Professor, and a version of Dr. Doolittle. Check them out sometime, especially the former.

The joke wasn't made in 1996, it was made in 95 after a run of Another 48 Hrs, Boomerang, and Beverly Hills Cop 3, and Vampire in Brooklyn. Clearly his star power was wanning.

Okay, after that string of flops, fine, I get it.

No one gave a crap about John Travolta for over a decade between Saturday Night Fever and Pulp Fiction, either.
