Honestly, either Eddie Murphy's movies have been really bad, or they need to fire the marketing department that does the commercials. They have the same fucking voiceover guy that does all of them and the commercials are always almost completely unfunny. The guy may as well say "Coming this weekend, another shitty Eddie Murphy movie. You know the drill, go see something else. Rated PG-13."Want to crush it in mainstream with Facebook ads? Hit me up. -
It's not so much using the same voice guy as it is using practically the same commercial except the gimmick premise of the movie is different. I know those guys can change their voices up a little bit but the guy speaks exactly the same in all of the Eddie Murphy movie commercials.
Anyways, it seems A Thousand Words was actually SHOT in 2008, so one of those movies that sucked so bad it got shelved. 0 good reviews on RottenTomatoes, lol.
Edit: To put it another way, if you've ever seen the South Park episode where they keep having the Rob Schneider movie commercials, that's exactly what I'm talking about.
Edit: Found it:

The Eddie Murphy movie just looked terrible. . . as has most of his movies in recent years. I never read the John Carter books so I had no frame of reference, but the commercials made it hard to get into. It just looked like a guy who jumped in the air and kicked ass. I have read reviews that say it is decent, but I think they did a pretty shitty job of marketing it.Comment

I don't know how Eddie Murphy keeps getting work. Has he even had a successful movie in the last 10 years?
I don't know the storyline for John Carter, the commercials did look fun but they did not tell me enough to want to see it.Vacares - Web Hosting, Domains, O365, Security & More - Paxum and BTC Accepted

Oddly, the kids movies were a means to clean up his image after getting caught with that tranny prostitute.
As to John Carter, I think the main thing that has hurt their box-office sells is not revealing too much to those not already familiar with the character. I loved the books, and have been looking forward to seeing the movie after the first teaser trailer came out.
