Heard about Meet Dave? The movie follows a group of aliens from the planet Nil, who, with their captain (Eddie Murphy) travel to Earth in a spaceship/robot named Dave who is also played by Eddie Murphy. Apparently, a mish-mash of fish-out-of-water and space traveling hijincks ensue until Dave meets a young child who warms his heart and convinces everyone to show compassion for one another (sadly, Eddie Murphy's actual child with Mel B. could not do the same for him). Sadly, the film is written by Mystery Science Theater 3000 writer/star Bill Corbett who, like Murphy, also decided to phone it in. More on that, after the jump. More »

What's the protocol at a film premiere these days? Are you actually required to watch the whole movie? And then hang around afterwards and compliment people on it? If so, it explains the rather thin turnout for Eddie Murphy's latest phone-in, Meet Dave (the one where there's a tiny Eddie Murphy in his head.) Indeed, almost everyone at L.A.'s Mann Village Theatre last night seemed to actually have been in the movie. Gabrielle Union looked amazing, of course, but Elizabeth Banks and some others were a mixed bag, and some guys sported some really ugly goatees. All of it, of course, after the jump. More »
