It's been too long, he'd be trash now. Seen it before. Comedians try to come back after a long hiatus, get on stage making outdated references about shyt they never got to talk about years ago.

Eddie would probably get on stage and be like, Whatever happened to payphones? everybody gotta cell phone now, even my momma :ooh:.

Comedy equivalent of :flabbynsick:
I take it that no one in this thread has ever done stand-up?

Depends on his writing/creative regimen but he probably has tons of material. If he does do stand-up again, he will be in an interesting position.

Will he be rusty in this format? Sure but he isn't washed by any means. A guy with his talent will never lose "it" and I think a lot of you will be surprised, if he returns.

You guys are just letting nostalgia blind you to the fact that all comedians have a prime. Just like athletes. People eventually get used to your schitke and it's no longer as fresh and funny. Some age faster than others i'll give you that, any comedy from Jim Carrey these days is weed plate status entirely. Eddie might be able to put on an ok show, but he'll never be Delirious Eddie again.

Poster above said comedy is ageless, :mjlol: Watch The Steve Martin episode of comedians in cars getting coffee. He explains it perfectly why he no longer does standup.

I've never heard of Steve Martin,but this is Eddie damn Murphy:martin:. I've just assumed Eddie wasn't funny anymore one too many times, because its been too long since he's done standup. Only for him to then he comes out and kill something that I see him in. Not talking about the commercial,safe shyt he does.We talking about a movie like Life,and I once saw him on a bet special where he was gambling for charity,and he was roasting the hell out of other comedians and they had nothing for him. Yes these were all years ago,but you could see he doesn't need a stage to keep his mind sharp. He's just still so far of head of everybody else,he's still sharper than them:wow:.


Plus I don't think you can compare a guy like Jim Carey or a Martin too Eddie,because physical comedy was a huge part of what made them funny. As you get older that dies a little bit for whatever reason:flabbynsick:

But with all that said he ain't coming back. We heard this years ago many times from him. He just gets around other comedians who get him hyped up for a return.

Eddie is a legend and if really invested himself he would kill it I would never doubt him but even in this clip you can tell he’s like fukk that once he starts talking about having to go to comedy clubs to build up a new set
