    Neville was drearily stumbling across the dormatory, passionlessly smashing furniture. "Hey" said Ron, "I know you're upset, but it's okay to have your own opinion, you know?". Neville stood dead in his tracks. "Ron.." he whispered, "It's just fucked... Meet Dave 20% score... It's a perfect movie."

    Having now watched Meet Dave I can't understand why it's become such a notorious bomb...it's very much a film a parent could watch with their kids and be have a perfectly alright time. And there are plenty of "family movies" that do NOT do that. It was essentially wholesomely meh.

    Meet Dave Wain. Dave on the left. Wain on the right! They're characters in a new movie written by my buddy John Oak Dalton. POPEYE'S RETURN (2026) is the sequel to POPEYE'S REVENGE (2025) and it's available for streaming on Prime Video. Thanks to John for killing me off in the movies! Twice!

    The giant Eddie Murphy head was created to promote the film "Meet Dave" which Mr. Corbett was a writer on.

    The head is actually used to promote the 2008 film Meet Dave. Most of the photos of the head was taken around that year.

    The massive traveling Eddie Murphy head they used to promote the film Meet Dave was, at one point, going to be used as a feature at Eddie Murphy's pool. Then the creator wanted to launch it over Niagra Falls. Instead, it got harmlessly dismantled. authory.com/JasonTabrys/...

    My late father was bizarrely keen on this movie (also, Eddie Murphy's Meet Dave). He didn't know what a PSP was.

    When I want on a school field trip in eighth grade, where we visited the Statue of Liberty, we did see a film being shot *around* the Statue of Liberty. ....That movie was Meet Dave, but it makes me wonder if these people think NWH's climax should have been on the ground or *on the real statue*.

    No problem! And to not leave you hanging, it was a promotional thing for the movie Meet Dave where he plays a robot controlled by tiny people

    I was a child when I saw Meet Dave in theaters. I and my brother were in fact laughing our butts offs as the target demo. I still remember parts of the movie and even now thinking about the “Dave Ming Chang” line makes me giggle

    I got the mental image of both of you experiencing the Meet Dave Eddie Murphy movie scene, where Dave (who's actually a 'ship' piloted by micros) is standing in the bathroom as a pilot 'ejects' repeatedly the hotdogs he ate (being a ship he doesn't actually eat, it's like..cargo storage as is)

    For some reason I confused this film with Meet Dave for years...which is also a terrible movie, but I think Eddie Murphy as a mech would have made a fun episode

    43. Meet Dave (2008). Meh. While not an awful kids movie, as there is a fun idea here and a few amusing bits, it mostly has obvious jokes and a whatever story. Actors aren't given much to work with, especially poor Eddie Murphy. Not very good.

    The Seahawk defense is like watching 11 Terminators while the Seahawk offense is like watching the small aliens pilot the human robot from the Eddie Murphy movie Meet Dave (2008)

    There’s this movie I watched in theaters when I was a kid named Meet Dave about a group of microscopic aliens who pilot a humanoid robot/spacecraft to find what they need on Earth. It’s a pretty corny film looking back, but it did help awaken something in me as an easily impressionable youngster.
