I'd say the status quo problems invoked by the phrase "our research says PG" is a lot more interesting than whether or not there's another Beverly Hills Cop movie.
That's not surprising. Hollywood execs aren't allowed to go BM until they get the results of the latest focus groups.

[Image]From iwatchstuff, Lorenzo Di Bonaventura reportedly wants to do another Beverly Hills Cop movie (since the last one was such a masturpiece), but the studios aren't sold on the idea of Eddie Murphy going back to R-rated stuff. Says Di Bonaventura:
'I think it's going to be a really interesting debate and it's one we're going to have for a while. That's what I want [an R rating]. Will you guys call Paramount and tell them that? The studios says their research is telling them PG. I'm with you. I won't do it if it's PG-13.'
One wonders if this "research" also decided Norbit was a good idea. "Well, our studies show that Eddie Murphy + fat suit = money. This idea can't fail." But regardless of how they feel, I have a solution. The studios don't want to jeopardize Eddie Murphy's family friendly status, but no one wants to see an emasculated Beverly Hills Cop. Fine. Solution? Charlie Murphy. See that, morons? That's why you have to wear a suit to work and I don't even have to wear pants. Masturbating at our desks is the one thing we seem to agree on.
"No Beverly Hills Cop 4?"
