chris tucker...martin's at least you can pinpoint the fall off from his prime and the reasons why (drugs, heat stroke, possible mental issues/medication, switch to do more family stuff)..but he can still remind cats from time to time why he is a GOAT and why his other comics hold him in high regard..the man in his 50s and is about to have another critically and commercially successful movie in his resume


chris - he got paid and got lazy..friday to the first rush hour was a hell of a run..rush hour 2 was cool..after that..just waste..nothing like he displayed in the 90s..his standups are not that great and it blows my mind why he stopped making movies like he did

Chris Tucker is still the same. He just isn't as active. Martin however is :flabbynsick: Sounding like he got a deviated septum

Where would you say is the exact moment that you noticed Martin start to fall off from his prime?

Martin had issues that can explain his loss in edge.

What happened to Chris Tucker exactly? He definitely fell off but I'm not sure why.

It's like the Rush Hour success fukked him up. Dead Presidents shows that he definitely has acting chops but I don't feel like he's parlayed that into more opportunity.
