• Old Shame: In The Eighties, The Golden Child. In The Nineties, his pre-Nutty Professor films, particularly Vampire in Brooklyn (also an Old Shame of director Wes Craven) and Beverly Hills Cop III. And in the 2000s, The Adventures of Pluto Nash.
• Star-Derailing Role: He's had two: First, 1989's Harlem Nights, and more infamously, 2002's The Adventures of Pluto Nash.
• What Could Have Been: The role of Winston Zeddemore in Ghostbusters was originally written with him in mind.
  • Murphy says he's kicked himself in hindsight for refusing the role, feeling at the time it would be a flop.
