I remember back in 1984 when this movie came out, a typical hotel room was like 40-60 bucks and a motel was like 20-30 per night. The $235 would be something close to a grand per night today
Using the CPI inflation calculator from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, $235 in 1984 is $668 today. But various taxes and "fees" have also substantially increased in California, so your $1K estimate probably isn't too far off.
I just looked it up. The hotel is the Biltmore and the rooms were on sale but if you were staying there tonight a double room is $198. I guess the hotel isn't that exclusive anymore because I imagine a boutique hotel could easily charge $1k for a double.
I like how he knows Michael Jackson is so revered that he could get a room under the guise of interviewing him, and then laughs at guys on the street for wearing outfits that Michael would wear
2:00 - He laughs at the all-leather ensembles, yet ironically that is close to the type of wardrobe he wore in both his stand-up specials; Delirious (1983) and Raw (1987).
@KhanTutorialsBD When I say he's laughing at the leather suits, I mean it from a metaphorical standpoint since Eddie himself ironically chose to wear similar type of ensembles in both of his stand-up comedy specials. You're talking about the LITERAL reason he's laughing, and that's because it's how the script to Beverly Hills Cop was written and how this scene was planned out - to make Eddie's character, Axel Foley, appear to secretly ridicule the outlandish stylings of the 1980's west coast 'it' crowd. The dummy has spoken.
I Wish I was a Young Teenager growing up in that era, I hear so Much about it & Love 80's Music & the Freedom one could have riding Bikes with Friend's just living, Taking in Fresh Summer Air, Getting something To eat with Friend's Frosty treat(🍦🍨🍧) with Someone like.
1:47 -2:06 ... I NEVER GOT THE JOKE UNTIL JUST NOW!... I'm fucking DYING! Special "Delirious" 1983, "Beverly Hills Cop" 1984... Laughing at the leather suits. I'm actually so much happier that this snuck up on me later in life...
... it's maybe ironic but that isn't the joke at all. Those are the kinds of outfits MJ would wear in his music videos and such. That's the joke. It ain't that deep.
I always love how they start this scene with her on the phone telling someone else they have no rooms available. lol Its a smart move. They didnt want anyone to think they were racist or rude. lol
At first I thought $235 isn't bad but when you check the inflation rate, that would equal $670/night now....I see why he paused and seemed a bit blown away

Don't you think I know that if I was some hotshot from out of town that pulled inside here and you guys made a reservation mistake, I'd be the first one to get a room and I'd be upstairs relaxing right now. But I'm not some hotshot from out of town, I'm a small reporter from "Rolling Stone" magazine that's in town to do an exclusive interview with Michael Jackson that's gonna be picked up by every major magazine in the country.

I know he ended up not having to pay for it due to the BHPD stepping in, but I can only imagine the shenanigans he wouldve had to pull in order to avoid paying the massive $1000+ bill he had coming.
I stayed at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel 2 months ago and the cost of the regular room was 850 dollars a night (I clarify that this is the real name of the hotel, a fictional name was used for the movie but the hotel really exists)
Yes, this movie was released in the 80's. Adjust for inflation and it sits at around the same price I'm pretty sure. Haven't checked though so feel free to correct me on that.
I laughed so hard at the price of the room. I remember thinking who could afford $235 for a hotel room. Now you’re lucky to find a motel 6 at $235 a night
Yup. True. He was the best black comedian of his time. Today we have others, but back then he was the only one, or the best one. Funny thing is that Chris Rock has a small role in this movie too. He was young back then and just at the start of his career.
@@thesaintst1851 Please tell me you're joking! That would have made it a very different movie, and plausibly not as successful as the one with Eddie Murphy!
$237 in 1987 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $618.18 today (July 2022), an increase of $381.18 over 35 years. The dollar had an average inflation rate of 2.78% per year between 1987 and today, producing a cumulative price increase of 160.84%.

Good thing the Beverly Hills police gets the check at the end of the movie... which may explain a bit of the increase of taxes in California... ;-)
" If Michael calls tell him what room i am in " LMAO 😂
It's funny how he laughed at the guys with the Beat It outfits on, especially considering what he wore on Delirious. 😂
*Thriller
And Raw!
That was the joke. Delirious came out the year before Beverly Hills Cop. It was a direct reference to his Delirious outfit.
You said Beat It outfits...lol 🤣🤣🤣 More like Thriller lol
Lol, I know, I forgot about that, I was just thinking that he booked a room under false pretenses uses MJ’s name
When they tell him the cost of the room 😂
And that was like nearly 40 years ago. Can you imagine what it costs now?
Actually that hotel is in downtown LA I work there and it’s not much more than standard Hilton prices😂

Those were times when movies were so funny & entertaining to watch
couple of years later he actually really worked with michael jackson in the "remember the time" video lol
It’s the stare for me!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Eddie needs to bring the laugh back, the laugh retired like 30 years ago, lol
VINTAGE EDDIE MURPHY..THANK YOU FOR THE UPLOAD
Him laughing at the jackets lol
The Serge scene was way more hilarious than people gave it credit for!! 😆😂😆
Bronson Pinchot actually stole the scene from Eddie Murphy. Not an east thing to do!
I love how he gets more and more friendly with “Serge” over the course of the movie lol 😂
His best and one of my favourite films ever.
I don't care but Bronson Pinchot should have gotten some kind of award for this role.
Listen to that sax and music,the music was epic in this movie.
Serge is the man!
I love Bronson Pinchot

As a kid I always thought he said - "there's no knickers allowed in there"
Better off that's what you thought as a kid.
That Price pose kill me all the time 😂😂😂

Man, I miss how Cali used to be back in the day. One of the best states to visit in the 80s-to the early 2000s.
Eddie laughing at the leather suits he end up wearing them .
My thoughts exactly
He wore a red one in delirious before this
Having a hotel room once is way more affordable than impress unknown parents and their relatives
Genius. 😂
I know he ended up not having to pay for it due to the BHPD stepping in, but I can only imagine the shenanigans he wouldve had to pull in order to avoid paying the massive $1000+ bill he had coming.
I was disappointed to not see that. The same with the second film. They (the bhpd) had to deal with the homeowners when they came back.

"The "Super Cops" story.......was working," and Bogomils' reaction to what Foley said, saw a slight smile from the no nonsense cop.
