The concept is just horrid. Yes, the solution is that people need to just stop watching them, but somehow people like Larry, The Cable Guy keeps getting movies, so someone is amused by these types of projects. Hollywood is dictating to the consumers what they will watch, and not the other way around. That's just wrong. I have no clue why ANYONE would star in this drivel, let alone Murphy.

I totally buy that as the reason why movies like Meet Dave get made. Which is probably why the AMC theaters just raised their prices to $10 here and the people in the movie biz bitch and moan about piracy to much. I think it's about time people take a stand and refuse to watch these poor quality films in any form. I wonder if this was an Eddie Murphy film because no one else in their right mind would take the part. And I also wonder how much he made to do it. And just to add to Eddie Murphy's acting resume, I'd like to say that last year for Norbit, Eddie Murphy singlehandedly garnered five Razzie (the anti-Oscars) nominations -- in four different categories -- for his multiple characters. That's a Razzie record for one person. Makes sense. I totally buy that as the reason why movies like Meet Dave get made.
