Coming to America (John Landis, 1988)

Summary: 108 - We are back with Eddie Murphy this week to celebrate the release of Coming 2 America with a revisit of Coming TO America. What do I even write here? This is a HUGE movie. YUUUUUUUGE. We talk through all the usual topics, from origin story and behind the scenes urban legends, through to some juicier topics. Coming To America represents a turning point in Eddie Murphy's career - with this being the first of 3 consecutive Murphy movies to feature an almost all-black cast - this was HUGE at the time, and almost controversial. We wish we could say times have changed
