It's the God stuff that he injects into it all that bothers me the most. I know a lot of black folk are religious but come on, sometimes making it a major plot point is bothersome.
And instead of complaining about Tyler Perry, a lot of dudes could encourage, or themselves become, independent filmmakers. Not trying to make films for just their people but to make films in general. But if you want to make films just for black people, I don't even see how that's possible if the film is actually something worth watching, then you could but make it something compelling.

Give me a movie about an interracial couple where their races aren't a plot point. Or an actual good one where their races are the main plot point. Or a movie that tackles black issues elegantly.

A movie, directed by a black director, with a black cast and an actual storyline that doesn't cater to stereotypes or has a woman who needs a savior. I guess that's why people mostly get mad at Tyler. Cause he's not making those movies. I don't see why anyone expects him to at this point. He could mature as a director.

Although, I'm pretty sure as soon as he steps out of his box, he will be clowned. He did his acting thing with Alex Cross and stepped out of the box (for him) and people made fun of it. I know I sure did but that was mostly cause of the hair.

look, he knows his audience's demographics and is clearly pandering his way straight to the bank. :yeshrug:

Black people flock to his films.:manny:

If black people didn't watch his shyt, then he'd stop making em. I know white people don't watch his shyt.

Tyler Perry movies and Keeping up with the Kardashians

Two things I will never understand :manny:

It's like he sits in a black women saloon and uses that conversation for movies.

He shows no interesting in branching out. Straight simping for black women.

surprising for a man who takes it up the azz

People complain about him not doing other types of movies. This is an "other" type of movie. To be fair the "fockers" movies didn't create the "guy meets the parents" idea in movies either.

real spit, this shyt is EXACTLY like meet the fockers. they even have david alan greer dressed like robert dinero....look at the trailer. even the "race to get home" scene....:snoop:

Can't go with the stereotypes criticism so they'll find another. TP won't win with some of these nikkas, thats why he might as well just stick to what his core fans like.

So what?

No ideas original. 99% of the movies in theaters are rehashes of something before. Why not support this one?

I watched a number of his plays and maybe 2 of his movies. After a while i got tired of them because i felt like i was seeing the same thing over and over. I dont go see them in theaters becuase they dont appeal to me and honestly they were made for the sistas.

With that being said i think a lot of peoples issuse is that hes the only black film maker whos constantly putting out work in the mainstream. nikkas wont stop bytching until someone else steps in and does a better job

honestly, i think tyler perry has gotten to a position where he can kinda step to the side a lil bit and hire some hungry writers and new directors to his production company. he can still use the "Tyler Perry presents..." on the movies, but let other talented people get some shine. plus, dude needs to just fall back from starring in his movies (which he has done lately). it's just time to change it up a little....

I don't think it matters at this point because the stigma behind his name is to venomous. He'd have to be like a silent partner or some shyt for a lot of cats to give it a chance.

:comeon: he still packs theaters to capacity and breaks box office records. i'm more than positive that he can make this work on the strength of just putting "Tyler Perry Presents..." over the movie title.

That was actually a well thought out critique (I really don't like some of the themes about success and ambition in his movies). However, I still won't hate on him. It is what it is :yeshrug:
