Eddie Murphy to star in Richard Pryor biopic
JOEYTOMATOES Writes--
Eddie Murphy as Richard Pryor this could be RELLY good. I can even smell Oscar...but one thing stands in the way in my opinion. POLITICAL CORRECTNES!!! Pryor came from a golden age of comedy where comedians openly made fun of race, sexual orientation, women, disability and more. People back than took it for what it was a joke and laughed it off.

Today we have become a nation of over sensitive cry babies. Radio, TV, Movie, print, and even comedians today are being fired for lightly touching the same ground Pryor did in his time. Today we have Al Sharpton, Chinese, Italian, Mexican defamation leagues that threaten to boycott and protest if someones job isn't taken for a joke. A JOKE!?!?

I just hope that the studio whoever it is has the balls to turn its back on Political Correctness and make a biopic that is as truthful and raw as the time it represents.

This movie has the potential to be great. Give pryor the respect he deserves.
