There's no need for multiple threads about the possible release of something on DVD, kinda like how there's no need for a new thread about a rerun of a show which originally aired just last month, and had already been heavily discussed here in its own four-page thread.

Know what I mean?

I remember reading an article in a magazine several years ago where Eddie Murphy was interviewed, and the "Delirious" special was brought up. He said he has deep regrets about insinuating that only homosexuals could get AIDS. He also said it would probably never be released again, and IF it was, those parts would be edited out.

I just listened to the show yesterday for the first time in over decade (found an MP3). The gay jokes are only about 3-5 minutes of a 95 minute show. He should just release the show and maybe cut out that portion.

I was under the impression that Paramount owned the rights to Delirious and had all video distribution rights to the film. I guess not, great news indeed!

It couldn't be much worse than the stored-for-twenty-years-in-a-moldy-basement print Paramount used for EDDIE MURPHY: RAW.

It will be welcomed by me. Let's "hope" for a reasonable transfer at best.

Eddie Murphy's "Delirious" coming to DVD

Entertainment Studios Home Entertainment and Starz Home Entertainment
Are Proud to Release For the First Time Ever

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.

already posted, not sure if the source is the same though.

Maybe a mod can merge the threads and clean up the title.

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.

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.
