Brett Ratner gets a lot of shit here at Defamer. We've called him "annoying," "a hack," even... gasp... "a bad director." But one thing we won't do is say the guy doesn't appreciate fine literature....

Previously, it had been reported that Brett Ratner's upcoming fourth installment to the Beverly Hills Cop might aim for a more kid friendly rating, that is, the much sought after and equally maligned PG-13. However, this can apparently be written off as a misunderstanding by MTVNews. Ratner himself recently set ...

Photo: Getty Images Great news, Brett Ratner fans! Eddie Murphy has apparently gone back on Monday's promise that he would retire from movies rather than star in another legacy-befouling Beverly Hills Cop sequel: "[Don't] just leave Axel with his thumb up his ass from the last movie," Murphy told MTV yesterday. "Whatever happened to Axel Foley? He's sitting in Detroit with his thumb up his ass since...

Once the biggest box office draw in Hollywood, Eddie Murphy’s career over the last 10 years has been iffy at best. For every decent performance, like the ones he gave in “Bowfinger” and “The Nutty Professor,” there are 5 or six really horrible movies, such as “Norbit,” “Pluto Nash,” “The Haunted Mansion,” “Showtime,” and “Beverly [...]

Earlier today, that director Brett Ratner intends to keep BEVERLY HILLS COP IV a profanity-laced "hard R". Who knows if the flick will actually be funny but at least he isn't turning Axel Foley into a kid-friendly, lovable bunny. So what does Eddie Murphy, who of course portrayed the iconic character for the last three films, think about it? Well, he's hip to the flick. Why? "Because the third 'Beverly...

Photo: Getty Images In a move sending shockwaves through the blogosphere (it's a slow week), Academy Award–nominated actor Eddie Murphy told Extra last night he's considering a retirement from film. "I have close to 50 movies and it's like, why am I in the movies?" he said. "I've done that part now. I'll go back to the stage and do stand-up." It's currently unclear what motivated his announcement...

Filed under: Action , Casting , RumorMonger , Remakes and Sequels I wasn't entirely thrilled with the news that Brett Ratner was bringing Axel Foley back to the screen with Beverly Hills Cop IV . But the news that it would be made kid friendly just completely killed it, along with the statement: "10-year-old kids, 12-year-old kids don't really know the old Beverly Hills Cop . So it's an opportunity...
