Richard Pryor: Is It Something I Said?

Looks like there is going to be a biopic about the great Richard Pryor, and playing him will be none other than Eddie Murphy. It is also being directed by Bill Condon.

Thats great news. An interesting life, Pryor had.
This'll make a great movie, unless given to a total cock of a director, of course. Great move getting Murphy in.

Mike Epps looks more like Pryor, IMO.

Eddie Murphy is a washed up has been..

I will always love Pryor's jokes

yes he does, he should be Pryor instead

Yeah it hasnt been great for murphy for some time, I just think he could still play later Pryor real well, of course there would probably be others who resembled Pryor more physically, like Gary Sinese resembled Leonard "Bones" McCoy more than Karl Urban, but Urban looks to have done a fine job, from what has been seen so far....
So hopefully, it'll be a similar thing here too...and not some awful Pink Panther like scenario.
