EDDIE MURPHY DELIRIOUS On DVD

Aunt Bunny and Her Mustache Are Arriving on DVD February 6, 2007

TORONTO, ON Entertainment Studios Home Entertainment (ESHE) and Starz Home
Entertainment announced today that the classic, comedy concert, Eddie Murphy
Delirious, will be made available for the very first time ever on DVD
Tuesday, February 6, 2007. (pre-book January 10, 2007). Eddie Murphy
Delirious changed the face of stand-up comedy and influenced some of todayıs
most popular cutting edge in-your-face comics including Chris Rock and
Dave Chappelle.

The year was 1983 and NOTHING was sacred! Jokes about puberty, dating, Mr.
T, disciplinarian mothers, and the personality traits of Michael Jackson
were all fair game when the man in the red leather suit took the stage!
Eddie Murphy Delirious arrives on DVD boasting brand-new special features
including an Eddie Murphy Interview hosted by Byron Allen and ten minutes of
never-before-seen footage.

We are proud to distribute this very special DVD along with Starz Home
Entertainment, says Byron Allen, chairman and CEO of Entertainment Studios.
I have known Eddie for more than 25 years and have enjoyed collaborating
with him on the special features and other aspects of this incredibly
popular and highly-anticipated DVD.

This is a tremendous property to distribute under the Starz Home
Entertainment label, stated Bill Clark, executive vice president and
general manager of Starz Home Entertainment. By capitalizing on our retail
relationships, and utilizing Mr. Allenıs great celebrity contacts as well as
his expertise in the comedy arena, we are confident that Delirious will be
a leading release in the first quarter of 2007.

Entertainment Studios Home Entertainment and Starz Home Entertainment will
support the DVD release of Eddie Murphy Delirious with a comprehensive
marketing campaign reaching millions of consumers including advertising on
Entertainment Studios network of TV shows reaching 30 million consumers per
week.

Eddie Murphy Delirious is classic Eddie Murphy at his best and shows why he
is the ORIGINAL KING OF COMEDY! Taped live and in concert at Constitution
Hall in Washington, D.C. in August 1983, the stand-up special originally
aired on a then-fledgling cable network called HBO.

Eddie Murphy Delirious will be released just after the anticipated
theatrical release of Dreamgirls starring Eddie Murphy, Jamie Foxx, Beyonce
Knowles and Danny Glover on December 25, 2006. Murphy is also starring in
the feature film Norbit with Thandie Newton (Crash) and Cuba Gooding Jr.
(Jerry Maguire), which will open on February 9, 2007 and was written by
Charlie Murphy.

So is this going to be unedited or not? I don't see anywhere touting this on that press release, so that has me a bit concerned.

dsa_shea 12-02-06 09:33 PM

Does this mean that Eddie might be making a change back to his old ways? Maybe Beverly Hills Cop IV will be like the first couple.

I liked Raw better than Delirious, but I'm going to picking this up.

Was his 1982 concert that was on CD ever filmed? It was just as funny as "Delirious".

I remember watching this over and over on HBO as a kid and laughing my ass off. I'll buy it on release day. Goonigoogoo!

dude eddie is the guy who got busted trying to pick up a male prostitute a while back, if he could somehow work that into the aids on the lips routine that would be comedy gold

I just saw this on Deepdiscountdvd, finally, my VHS tape looked like it was about to die last time I watched it. Can't wait.

Strange this ain't coming out through Paramount, the VHS version was through them right? I bought Raw so I will get this for sure, Eddie has always been great at stand-up comedy and I would love him to do it again.

Yep it's Paramount.

Actually he picked up a transvestite/transsexual(conflicting reports on which was which). So it's not entirely accurate to say he picked up a 'male' prostitute. Since gay guys don't like guys dressed as girls,they like guys only.

C_Fletch 01-19-07 08:42 PM

I just saw the news. I didn't think it was ever going to get released. I'll be buying a copy for sure. I have the audio tape, best of Eddie Murphy CD, and the video from the original HBO airing.

I wouldn't want to be politically incorrect so I won't quote any great lines but I would be lying if I said the routine isn't great. Do yourself a favor and throw the PC BS out the window for the night and pick up a copy. You'll laugh your ......we'll you know. Anyone with a good sense of humor will agree.

Anchor Bay is re-releasing this set as a 2-disc 25th Anniversary Edition DVD on September 16th. Amazon.com has the listing with cover art but no specs yet.

NoirFan 07-25-08 09:51 PM

Two discs? I wonder what they could include as extras. That Byron Allen interview mentioned on page 2 of this thread doesn't look particularly promising - that guy is about as bland and inoffensive as Greg Gumbel.

2-Discs? What could they add to make it worth 2 discs?

maybe a digital copy lol

Kory 07-25-08 11:30 PM

The Amazon listing only says one disc?

Zen Peckinpah 07-26-08 12:23 AM

I'm praying for a "You is on the Welfare!" Edition.

Murphy's Clint Eastwood imitation in this is golden, as is the whole damn thing.

dx23 11-22-08 07:52 PM

Did Anchor Bay release this? Amazon has a listing but it seems that it wasn't released.
