Raw is coming out on September 7th but Delirious will probably never come out.

Just 'cause I'm curious about these things . . . why would Delirious never come out? (I love hearing the stories.)

People claim that Murphy owns the rights to it and refuses to release it due to clashing with his current, family film image.

Hey Eddie, Richard Pryor would say suck my dick!, I find that hard to believe after he makes fun of Bill Cosby being to wholesome, and now he is the same way

Yeah, I'm skeptical of that scenario. That would be pretty selfish to deny us a wonderfully hilarious movie like Delirious! When Eddie was on, he was on...

Eddie Murphy's Delirious was one of the best stand up routines ever IMHO. I have the LD and am contemplating getting a DVD recorder just so that I can transfer this to DVD lol

They said the same thing about Arnold editing stuff out of Pumping Iron that could damage his image. And not only did he leave everything in he added more footage...

He's probably just waiting for the right marketing moment, so he can cash in big.

This is a duplicate thread.

You should check out this thread below...

http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...ight=delirious

But as I said in the other thread:

I don't think Delirous will ever be coming out. Unless on Eddie's death bed he changes his mind and decides to release it or one of his kids releases it when he dies. He bought the video rights from Paramount and HBO. I spoke with my parents friend who worked with Eddie and his production company and he said that Eddie doesn't want to look stupid in front of his kids and others for making insensitive jokes about gays and aids etc. Eddie's company has even gone as far as buying back most of the VHS copies of Delirious from most of the major video store chains like Blockbuster, Hollywood and others. Raw on the other hand Eddie has no control over because Paramount owns the rights. I have heard that Eddie is very upset about the Raw release. I don't think that he will ever change his mind about Delirious as long as he is making serious money making family films, or at least until his kids are adults.

i suggest if he doesn't want to look stupid in front of his kids, he should buy the rights to 'daddy day care' - that's truly something to be embarrassed about!
i watched it 2 weeks ago and last week i watched 'coming to america'... you wouldn't even think it's the same guy in those movies...



'you look mighty cute in them jeans, boy!!'

It's a damn shame . Eddie was perhaps the greatest comic AND actor ever.

To be honest I thought it was Gooney Goo Goo, but if you say differently, then I take your word for it. My vhs copy of this movie is so used that if it does say Gooney Goo Hoo, I couldn't tell since its so distorted.

Let me start over...
