Beverly Hills Cop: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (genre): Beverly Hills Cop → Stripes. Grouped with Stripes, Ghostbusters and Blues Brothers as action comedies where a comic star changed what the movie was.
    “they could have made this movie either way, and they just decided to put Bill Murray or Eddie Murphy in it, and then it just completely changes it”

Bill Murray: 1 line unmapped ×1

  1. unmapped (recurring bit): Bill Murray → Stripes. Murray's flirt-by-annoying persona goes back to SNL's Todd and Lisa Loopner sketches with Gilda Radner and Stripes, then becomes the whole premise of What About Bob?
    “He did it in stripes when he was trying, you know, his way of trying to like flirt with people would be to annoy them.”

Full Metal Jacket: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (boot camp comparison): Stripes → Full Metal Jacket. Compared as boot-camp movies, though Stripes loses interest after basic.
