Starship Dave

[tardoid7]

I'm suprised no one here has mentioned it yet, but Eddie Murphy is going to be starring in the movie Starship Dave co-written by Riffer Bill Corbett

[WouTar]

As long as it isn't the sequel to Pluto Nash I'd say we're in the clear.

Link?  imdb doesn't have the writers credited yet.

The movie has one heck of a weird premise:

"'Starship Dave' is the story of a crew of miniature, human-looking aliens who are seeking a way to save their doomed world. Murphy will play the human spacecraft they travel in (Starship Dave) as well as the ship's captain."

I leave it in the very capable hands of Mr. Corbett to deliver the gold!

It's "Innerspace" meets "That episode of Futurama where Bender was out in space and all the little people created a world all over his body, but then he met god and realised you have to take a light hand in your god based RTS or otherwise everyone dies"

There has been mention of it over at mst3k.com. There is actually new tidbit about since they got a new director.

This sounded alright until they decided to let Eddie Murphy star... man, does that guy just plain suck

Actually I'd compare it more to the Futurama where Fry eats a bad egg salad sammich from a truck stop vending machine and gets parasitic worms that make him smarter and stronger.

Manoman, do I love Futurama.

Ehn.  I like Bill, but Eddie Murphy hasn't made a really good movie in a long while.  Let's hope it's not another Pluto Nash.

Am I the only human being on the planet who actually liked Pluto Nash??

Probably  We won't hold it against you though... for too long

Let's hope it's not another Pluto Nash.

The Adventures of Pluto Nash has caused human beings to bleed heavily from their eyelids. I can't see how Starship Dave could achieve that level of awfulness.

I didn't hate it.  It just wasn't a film that came close to entertaining me in any way.  Not it a good way or bad way.

I like Rosario Dawson though.

It's true that Murphy hasn't done anything good recently, but you can't say he sucks.  I still respect the guy for his brilliant stand-up special Raw, as well as Beverly Hills Cop, which is one of the funniest comedies of the 80's.  And Bowfinger wasn't too bad either.

Well you can argue that he sucks NOW compared to then. Yes 'Beverly Hills Cop' was a classic and the sequels weren't bad but if consider
The Adventures Of Pluto Nash
Haunted Mansion
Daddy Day Care
Showtime
I Spy
You can see where i'm coming from...
