1. I remember seeing 28 Days Later in the theater. My girlfriend and I were talking about the two leads and just *knew* they’d both be huge.

2. Murphy’s default mode is “profound & intense”. He can act that way in his sleep.

   I’d love to see him as a clever straight man in a real Irish comedy. A right silly one!

   Disclaimer ~ When I say straight man…I’m using it to describe a person who acts as a foil for the lead comedian. In famous comedy duos one is always serious and the other is the funny one. The serious one is called the straight man because they play it non-funny so they’re playing it straight.

   Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

3. Murphy is an outstanding actor.

4. I am burnt out on this guy
