In 1988, Eddie Murphy and director John Landis combined forces to create "Coming to America," a romantic comedy that went on to become an emblematic staple of 80s cinema. On the surface, it's a story about a prince from a fictional African country who travels to America in search of true love. But as we delve deeper, it reveals a myriad of layers that blend humour, cultural commentary, and romance in a unique blend that stands the test of time.The movie embarks on the journey of Prince Akeem of Zamunda (Eddie Murphy), who, against the backdrop of opulence and traditionalism, wishes to find love that transcends his royal status. Rejecting the arranged marriage set up by his parents, he and his confidante, Semmi (Arsenio Hall), decide to go to America—specifically, Queens, New York—to find Akeem's queen.This simple yet intriguing premise serves as a foundation for the exploration of various thematic undercurrents. "Coming to America" subtly underscores the tension between tradition and individualism. While Akeem's motivations are romantic, his journey is also an act of rebellion against Zamundan royal customs. There's a message of self-determination and autonomy, underscored by his desire to be "liked for who he is" rather than his princely status.One of the film's most notable achievements is its rich character tapestry. Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall, through their multiple roles, showcase an astonishing comedic range. From the hilarious barbershop patrons to the charismatic Reverend Brown and the unforgettable Sexual Chocolate band, these multifaceted roles add depth and vibrancy to the story.However, it's Murphy's portrayal of Prince Akeem that truly stands out. He masterfully captures the essence of a young man torn between duty and desire, seamlessly blending innocence, determination, and humour. Likewise, Arsenio Hall as Semmi wonderfully complements Akeem, offering both comedic relief and a contrasting perspective on their American adventure.Supporting characters, from Lisa McDowell (Shari Headley) to her father Cleo (John Amos) and the hilarious antagonist Darryl (Eriq La Salle), provide the cultural backdrop against which Akeem's journey unfolds. Their interactions with the prince not only contribute to the movie's comedic moments but also its emotional depth, presenting a nuanced portrayal of urban America in the 1980s.Beyond its romantic and comedic plotline, "Coming to America" offers an exploration of cultural contrasts. The lavish and exaggerated depiction of African royalty against the backdrop of urban Queens provides ample ground for both humour and reflection. The film plays with stereotypes, sometimes reinforcing them but often subverting them for comedic effect. One might argue that the film occasionally walks a fine line between genuine cultural appreciation and caricature. However, given the context of its release and its overall intentions, it largely manages to stay on the right side of this divide.The film also provides an interesting examination of the American Dream from an outsider's perspective. Through Akeem's eyes, America is portrayed as a land of opportunity, equality, and potential—a place where even a prince can start from the bottom.The film's soundtrack, peppered with hits from the era, adds to the movie's charm. From the catchy "Soul Glo" jingle to the memorable dance sequence set to "The Greatest Love of All," the music plays an integral role in creating the film's vibrant atmosphere.Cinematographically, "Coming to America" is a visual treat. The stark contrast between the extravagant palaces of Zamunda and the bustling streets of Queens is captured beautifully, helping to further the narrative and the humour."Coming to America" is undoubtedly a product of its time, yet its core messages and humour allow it to transcend its era. While some elements might seem outdated by contemporary standards, the film remains a testament to Eddie Murphy's brilliance and the universality of its themes.At its heart, it's a tale about finding one's place in the world, breaking free from societal constraints, and pursuing genuine love. Combine that with impeccable comedic timing, memorable characters, and a catchy soundtrack, and it's no wonder "Coming to America" remains an enduring classic.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcast If you are looking to start a podcast and want a host or get guests to pipe in remotely, look no further than Riverside.fmClick the link below https://riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_1&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=rewardful&via=matthew

With episode 600 looming, the Big Bracket is getting full... and Dave, Mikey, and #TwitterlessDrEarl welcome back Friend of the Show Clay Shaver, and he brings a special tournament for the crew to push through. This time around, to determine which role will join the greats like Prince Akeem, Castor Troy, Indiana Jones, Anna Scott, and not Ethan Hunt, this time, there are 16 "DAVE" or "DAVIDs" from the movies, and 16 "MIKE", "MIKEY", or "MICHAELs to vote on. Plus, the guys catch up with the latest with Clay in the Mitt of Michigan, his thoughts on the "Barbie" phenomenon, and lots of talk about Robert Romanus. Lots of talk. And even some Boner Stabone. You just gotta listen. And then, Dave pays off the 1st annual Dave'Stalgia, with older films assigned by friends of the show like Burgeydoodle, Roth from Wyoming, Lil G, from hosts Mikey and #TwitterlessDrEarl and a last minute addition from Clay himself.
In this episode, Shai and Roderick sow their podcasting oats by celebrating Coming to America, starring Eddie Murphy as Prince Akeem. From palace life in Zamunda to tenement living in Queens, New York, our co-hosts figure out how the heir to the throne of a wealthy African nation ended up pursuing the daughter of a fast food restaurant owner, with some very questionable business practices. The Immigration concepts they will explore include Diplomatic visas, Tourist visas, and unlawful employment. Plus, Shai and Roderick consult with a special guest to discuss trademark infringement in the fast-food industry.

Back in the 80's Eddie Murphy was "a thing", everyone knew his Gumby and Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood from SNL, and he had started a solid movie career with 48 Hours, Trading Places and Beverly Hills Cop. He had also stepped into music with Party All The Time, starring Eddie and Rick James. (and more recently My Name Is Dolomite! Check out that show HERE!) But then, he teamed up with Arsenio Hall, who was rising to the top of his game also, hosting The Arsenio Hall Show which ran from '89-'94, and also voicing Winston Zeddmore on the Real Ghostbusters! (Remember that?!) The result of that sweet, sweet paring of "guys who like to play dress up" was Coming To America, the heartwarming rom-com(?) of Prince Akeem and his search for true love in Queens. It was a hit, and grossed over $288M worldwide, so the sequel Coming 2 America (see what they did?) was no surprise. In this Amazon Original Prince Akeem is back on the trail in Queens, but this time looking for the son he did not know he had!

This week the guys check out a film 33 years in the making starring the vampire known as Eddie Murphy (seriously, does the man age?!) and his equally ageless side kick, Arsenio Hall (who has clearly made a pact with the devil to maintain his beauty). That film is Coming 2 America - a film which Wayne thinks is no more funny or clever than the crappy way the title for this sequel has been put together.

With Coming 2 America released on Amazon Prime, the co-hosts take a look at that movie and come up with a top five list for Prince Akeem himself, Eddie Murphy.
After more than 30 years, Prince Akeem is once again coming to America. But for many critics, Eddie Murphy didn't strike comedic gold. #Coming2America #EddieMurphy #Cinema
When all three of us first saw “Coming To America,” we didn’t realize that there was, or would be, a lot of controversy surrounding the film. Some thirty-plus years later, there are groups of folks that can’t see the comedy thru the racial and gender politics of the film. We three still find it funny, and we chat about whether it’s because of our nostalgia or because the film is that funny. Coming to America is rated R and was released June 29, 1988 This comedy stars Eddie Murphy as Prince Akeem, Clarance, Saul, Randy Watson. The movie also features the talents of Arsenio Hall as Semmi, Morris, Extremely Ugly Girl and Reverend Brown. Hosts: Daniel Levain, Ian Sweetman, and Eric Sweetman.

The 1988 Eddie Murphy vehicle "Coming to America" is a beloved comedy, and like most beloved comedies, it now has a sequel. Now streaming on Amazon Prime, the second film in the saga of Prince Akeem is a pale retread, and Nathan Weinbender says it was a long wait for such a disappointing follow-up. Nathan Weinbender is the Film and Music Editor for the Inlander and a co-host of Spokane Public Radio's "Movies 101" heard Friday evenings at 6:30 here on KPBX.

This week, join us as we take a quick look back at the film Coming to America – the charming tale of Prince Akeem and what it means to forge your own path in life. We then take a deep dive into its sequel, Coming 2 America. A 33 years in the making follow-up that left us hopping and barking mad. Enjoy and thanks for listening! THAR BE SPOILERS.

Decades before Black Panther, Eddie Murphy gave us the first real glimpse of a fictional pan-African paradise with the country of Zamunda in John Landis' 1988 classic Coming to America, in which Murphy played the naive Prince Akeem finding love and playing fish out of water in the concrete jungle of Queens. More than thirty years later, Dolemite Is My Name director Craig Brewer brings us back to Zamunda with Coming 2 America, as now-King Akeem tries to figure out the future of Zamunda with the arrival of an illegitimate son from America (played by Jermaine Fowler). Unlike the first, which mostly took place in the fish out of water antics of Akeem in America, Coming 2 America lets us swim in the lush, vibrant world of Zamunda for much of its runtime, especially Ruth E. Carter's incredible costumes and Jefferson Sage's production design. Also playing a vital part is the score by Jermaine Stegall, who mixes traditional comedy scoring with a pan-African sound that evokes, but differentiates itself from, the theatrical bombast of the sound of Black Panther. Not only that, he spent weeks on set working with the choreographers and artists like Gladys Knight to help stage some of the dances and song performances that flesh out Zamunda's cultural fabric. I sat down with Stegall for a long, invigorating chat about searching for the sound of Zamunda, Stegall's reflections on the long mentorships with legendary composers that led to this moment, and the need for more opportunities for Black composers in the industry.
This week on End Credits, we're going to America. Not literally, or course, there's still a pandemic, but if Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall can go back to America, than we can go with them, and we do on this week's episode with the sequel Coming 2 America. We will discuss that movie, and we will also discuss some of the other stuff we're watching and you might be watching too. This Wednesday, March 10, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss: What We're Watching. There's so much content, certainly more than what can be covered in a week, so to begin with on this week's show let's consider some of the other stuff we're watching. From the Canadian premiere of a new documentary about the alt-right, to the WandaVision finale that only gave fans emotional closure, we'll talk about that, and the cancellation of Pepe Le Pew. REVIEW: Coming 2 America (2021). Thirty years before Black Panther another powerful and influential African prince took the world by storm. Eddie Murphy didn't fight the Avengers, but he did slay in the comedy hit Coming to America. Three decades later, Prince Akeem has ascended to the throne, but royal complications force a return to Queens and a meeting with the son he didn't know he had. So is this return to America worth the wait, or is it just another pointless legacy-sequel with I.P. to burn? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
Coming 2 America is #1 on Amazon Prime. Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall gave us a classic in 1988 with the original Coming to America. Prince Akeem and Lisa are celebrating 30 years of marriage when the Prince realizes he has a son in America. Special guest Chuck Gee joins the conversation as we chat all things Coming 2 America, and maybe a little NBA basketball.

Welcome to the RMPodcast! Review:Coming 2 America (@ 4:54) Vices Segment (@ 49:59) It looks like Eddie Murphy’s slump may finally be over. Following his critically praised film: Dolemite Is My Name, Murphy returns as Prince Akeem in: Coming 2 America, a film that’s garnered mixed reviews, but how does Red Moon feel about it? With more theaters poised to re-open soon, Paramount moves “A Quiet Place 2” up to May, and we hope this is a sign that we may finally be able to get back to the movies! Chloé Zhao comes under fire in China as they censor her already award winning film “Nomadland”, and viewers looking to watch the hijinks of Warner Bros latest film “Tom and Jerry” are surprised with “Zac Snyder’s The Justice League”. Hollywood and the world continue to go mad and Red Moon continues to keep you up to date on all of it! We wrap the show with Vices; “When is a time you backed down, when you should have stood up?” Remember to catch us LIVE on Facebook or YouTube every Tuesday @ 9pm EST, and if you have a question, want to share your own story, or just want to say hello, please do so by emailing us at rmpodcast@redmoonproductions.com.

Sup Party Crashers - So, we're hoping your week is -- at minimum -- not nearly as bad as Meghan and Harry's but what we really want is that you're having a President Biden "go-on-with-yo-bad-self" week where you all the things you've said you would do have actually happened. In this episode of the 'Uninvited', we are going into previously unchartered territory with Jerry questioning Meghan's motivation for the Oprah interview as well as Oprah's (and most of the American people's) response to the 'revelation' that the Royal Family is probably (by probably, we mean almost certainly) racist. In his ridiculousness, Jerry ventures off into how he is becoming a television snob because of his newfound addiction to British television shows as well as how an invading alien army might respond to his mythological racism polling of the Royal Family as well as wonders aloud why aliens don't prefer dolphins to humans, how the Queen outsmarted the devil in their soul swap deal and why the Crown will never resemble Zamunda with Prince Akeem on the throne. We're also talking Joe Biden having the Best Week Ever and how his leadership style is spurring a new era of collaboration, as evidenced by the Johnson & Johnson - Merck partnership to produce the vaccine. How might we, armed with better intentions than Big Pharma, come together in the same way these business giants have to end racism, sexism and homophobia? This is the challenge before us, Party Crashers. Let's do some good. - The Uninvited "Under the Bridge", written and performed by Red Hot Chili Peppers --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jerry-jones5/message

From Zamunda to Queens travel with us as we explore 1988's Coming to America. Directed by John Landis and with knockout comedic performances, it is hard not to smile at the earnestness of Prince Akeem, the musical stylings of Randy Watson, and the eternal debate of Joe Lewis's age. It's funny. It's romantic. It's Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall in their prime. It has the dad of all dads, James Earl Jones. It begs the question, how could one of our co-hosts not have seen it?! Join Lauren and Ryan as throw down a path of rose petals and discuss this late 80s comedy classic.
Morgan and Josh headed to Queens to find the love of Prince Akeem's life at the beginning of the week and headed to Zamunda to help him remember what his kingdom was built on at the end of the week.
Prince Akeem and the Royal Family of Zamunda has returned for this a hilarious sequel. The film portrayed African royalty accurately. From the wardrobe to the production design; yet some people are not impressed.
What perfect timing @LaurenSivan (Hotel Artemis, Taken 3, and Fox News) has as her selection for this episode...Coming To America. As we post this, Coming 2 America came out just yesterday and seems the masses HATE the sequel. And Lauren went from loving the first Coming to America to finding more flaws in it than a pair of knockoff Prada shoes. Can Lauren convince @KevinGootee and @KevinIsrael_NJ that Prince Akeem be on a travel ban list to America?

In this weeks episode of the world’s-fastest-movie-review podcast Jackson and Mike review two new films. “JUDAS AND RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON” In a realm known as Kumandra, a re-imagined Earth inhabited by an ancient civilization, a warrior named Raya is determined to find the last dragon. Starring Kelly Marie Tran, Awkwafina & Daniel Dae Kim. And a quick review of “COMING 2 AMERICA” The sequel to John Landis’ hit comedy follows Prince Akeem, who finds out he has a son he never knew about — a street-savvy Queens native, Lavelle. To honor the former king’s dying wish to raise his grandson as the crown prince, Akeem, and Semmi once again leave for America. Starring Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall, and Jermaine Fowler
"Coming 2 America" is a reset but not a redo Thirty years later and we've returned to Zamunda just in time for Prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy) and Princess Lisa's (Shari Headly) anniversary and the King Jaffe (James Earl Jones) to tell his son - from his sick bed - that he has a son who must be found. Not because it's terrible that this son's grown up outside the family, but because the country's antiquated laws demand a male heir to secure the throne. Never mind the fact Akeem and Lisa have three fierce and talented daughters, Princess Tinashe (Akiley Love), Omma (Bella Murphy), and their oldest, Meeka (KiKi Layne). Akiley Love, Bella Murphy, Shari Headley, Eddie Murphy, and KiKi Layne star in COMING 2 AMERICA Photo: Quantrell D. Colbert © 2020 Paramount Pictures After his father's passing now King Akeem and his trusted aid Semmi (Arsenio Hall) rush back to Queens in search of his long-lost son, Lavelle played by Jermaine Fowler. If it feels like a familiar starting point (with a twist), it's absolutely supposed to. Tradition, Tropes, and Wasted Opportunities The jokes are so "inside" this time around and it feels like Prince Akeem, despite having three children, has been frozen in amber since his wedding. "Coming 2 America" is almost immediately hampered by its seriously shallow narrative. Despite a cast chocked full of talent, little effort's made to dig into the multitude of characters, new and old. Thankfully, it's still obvious that Zamunda is a kingdom out of time; this afrofuturistic country is bright, whimsical, and has little "connection" to the reality on Continent. It's clear, no effort's ever made to get into why Zamundan woman are still so disenfranchised after 30 years. So expect Princess Lisa and her magnificent daughters spend the majority of this romp sidelined. It's sadly indicative of a trend that never ends every time the film runs up on an issue even slightly serious. The comedic bits and blending of homages and cameos (of which you'll be tripping over by the end) do a serviceable job building a story to vibe with and enjoy. But the inexplicable rushing and decision not to subvert a single trope to make new "inside" jokes makes for a good time. But it could've been a new classic...

Axl Foley. Prince Akeem. Donkey. Let’s cut to the chase: Eddie Murphy is a comedy icon. His popularity as a stand up made red leather suits fashionable, his films grossed a combined six billion dollars at the box office, and his laugh is one of the most recognizable sounds in Earth. No one’s career is perfect but we’ll save that for the episode. Here at Pluto Blockbuster Nash Film Vampire in Brooklyn School we refuse to highlight a person’s failures in the description. We also lie and lack subtly. Xgvfh0nRvPRWuKK5mVKS

Mike Reid doesn't deal in labels, though he's had a few; Midget Wrestler (he's technically a dwarf), Geek or nerd. But what makes Mike masterful is his rejection of most labels, and how he embraces simple humanity. In this episode Mike talks about everything from Batman The Dark Knight, Heath Ledgers joker v.s. other jokers, being a traveling midget wrestler, and even some of the injuries and depression, and he dispels the myth of the glamour in being a traveling entertainer.

While Jesse is well acquainted with Prince Akeem, Ryan is about to find about what the prince and the kingdom of Zamunda have to offer. Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall lead a fantastic cast where they make multiple cameos themselves in this royalty-to-rags story that solidified Eddie as a comic legend.
This week, we talk about moving in silence, if we would rather smoke with King T'Challa in Wakanda or Prince Akeem in Zamunda, friendships brewed from weed, music and laughs!

Kidding...Maybe. ***Don't forget you can call and leave a message swearing up a shit storm for the foul-mouthed philanthropists! Calls will be aired on future episodes. Here's the number: 985-265-7726*** In the Studio: Dan Ken Critter Cocktail du Jour: South Side - 2 oz. Gin - 1 oz. Lime Juice - 3/4 oz. Simple Syrup - Mint Leaves In a shaker muddle the mint with the lime juice and simple syrup. MUDDLE! Don't fucking destroy it like your smooshing a cup full of bugs. I know, great mental picture, huh? Add the gin and ice and shake it. Strain into a coupe glass, garnish with a sprig of mint, and enjoy. It's pretty fucking good, but a bit tart. So if you're not a fan of tart up the simple syrup/booze and cut the lime juice down a bit. Quote du Jour: Prince Akeem - Behold Semmi! Life, real life, a thing that we have been denied far to long!

THIS WEEK: -Marijuana effects the memory. -Prince Akeem is cooler than King T'Challa. -Sitcom bitches. -Lisa McDowell got big titties. -Instagram killed the video ho. -Baby hates Wayne? AND MORE!!
COMING TO AMERICA (1988) Eddie Murphy was already a huge star when "COMING TO AMERICA" was released in 1988, and he went on to make a few more hits (and, let's be honest, a few clunkers). But the story of Prince Akeem's trip to Queens, NY to find his true love is one of the most beloved (and quoted) films of Murphy's whole career. On this week's episode of WHEN WE WERE YOUNG we revisit John Landis' comedic fairy tale, discussing everything from the amazing wedding day tribal dance in Zamunda to the fourth-wall-breaking pooch we affectionately refer to as "Judgment Dog." We also jam out to some of Murphy's forays into pop music, because you didn't think we could pass up the chance to sing along to "Party All The Time," did you? Does "Coming to America" still make you crack up after all these years - or when you think of garbage, do you think of Akeem? Listen to our latest episode now! And bark like a dog. A big dog. When We Were Young is a podcast devoted to the most beloved pop culture of our formative years (roughly 1980-2000). Join us for a look back to the past with a critical eye on how these movies, songs, TV shows and more hold up now.

This week Dick & Roger turn Investigative journalists to blow the lid off the lies behind Paramount Pictures decade’s long cover-up of the Zamundian royal family and their atrocities. The film's plot revolves around the discontented Prince Akeem, who is tired of his pampered life and concocts a plan to travel to America with his servant Semmi to find a bide of his choosing. While purporting to focus on the courtship the Prince to the American commoner Lisa McDowell, the film actually turned out to be nothing but pure propaganda. For over 28 years we have been methodically deceived into believing that King Jaffe Joffer was a benevolent ruler and loving father, but was he? How could a ruler who accessorize his wardrobe with the carcasses of exotic animals and proudly proclaims to have tied his own shoes once, called it "an overrated experience" be anything but ruthless? The King, in fact, rules the throne with unquestioned power and expects complete obedience even when choosing a bride for his son, who has been trained to mindlessly obey the princes every command. Whether his vast fortune was built from conflict diamonds, worker exploitation, or environmental degradation it’s obvious the people of Zamunda are subject to unspeakable human suffering. So please join us on the sofa while we fire up the old VCS for a revealing expose on the corruption of wealth and power.
