I can't choose between Beverly Hills Cop and Coming to America. They're both hilarious.

Has to be one of the first three. If he has done anything but unadulterated crap since Coming to America, I haven't seen it.

<talemyn runs off to start a new poll called "Which are better . . . Apples or Oranges?">
OT . . . Trading Places without hesitation. Second place would go to Beverly Hills Cop 2 and the Coming To America.

PS. You know these polls are kind of stupid because I bet not a lot of people saw most of his movies. Therefore a majority of us shouldn't vote becasue they haven't seen them all.
Kind of like talking to someone about politics who hasn't read the paper/internet or a book in decades. (Think "mostly" those people that gather in large numbers to protest something)

My case in point the Lynch poll thread. People are admitting to seeing Mulhulland Dr. and maybe one more of his movies and voting. Now, how the hell can you vote on a filmmaker if you haven't seen all or at the very least the majority of his movies.

Def Beverly Hills Cop, and its so funny that they origanly wanted Sly Stallone to play the part and not have any comedy and Eddie changed it all... What a great performence
