What about The Marriage Counselor? Why Did I Get Married? Class Reunion or The Family That Preys?

THANK YOU!!!! People can talk all the smack they want about him but at least he's keeping black actors employed and working. Mainstream Hollywood isnt doing it.

paisleypark4 said:

WDIGM I thought was decent too, but again, they revolved around the same concept (someone is being abused/cheated on). I do agree with your point that some of us may hate his movies but at least these talented black actors/actresses can get some work. Not to mention the countless everyday people who he has given jobs to at his studio, his plays, etc.

YESS!! The good news just keeps coming!

I think I said this earlier but that's the only good thing about it.

LMAO!!!!

"She is not doing the movie because her doctor advised her not to," her rep told UsMagazine.com Thursday. "More than that I cannot comment further."

paisleypark4 said:

As much as I want to care...I don't. But in all seriousness, I do not care for Tyler Perry and as Timmy said earlier, it's the same old thing. Nothing new! And don't even get me started on the dark-skineed vs light-skinned mess.

Did I miss something? You see dark-skineed vs light-skinned conflicts in his movies?

Girl4both said:

I'm sorry but can we dispel this myth once and for all? Lee Daniels, Queen Latifah, Sanaa Hamri, Kasi Lemmons, Antoine Fuqua and others are employing black actors jut as much as freaken Tyler Perry and while all their films might not be critical or commercial successes, at least they are freaken competently made films. Every time I hear people defend this hack, Tyler Perry, I think to myself, "You the same people who would be defending Amos and Andy".

We. Are. Beyond. That. Now.

Layzie said:

Dur. I'm surprise you never notice. The good guy is usually light-skinned and the bad guy is usually dark-skinned, like in Meet the Browns, Diary of a Mad Black Woman, and Madeas Family Reunion.

Please, never in life EVER mention that show...Jet magazine was actually making ads to sell DVDs of that show.

Maybe her lipo hasn't fully healed.

sosgemini said:

Wow!

sosgemini said:

Right on.

NastradumasKid said:

I 've noticed that the successful people in his movies are always the villian.

Layzie said:

And the poor folks are the heroes. Like I said same concept.

But if they're gonna hire the good looking "light skinned" fellas, don't hire Vanessa's ex-husband. That's an ugly troll. Shemar, OK, but not with those fake dreads.

Never noticed that until now.

@ Timmy!!!!! Rick Fox is very unattractive...

Layzie said:

I dont agree..he plays good roles in his films as himself, so had Jill Scott's husband...in Meet The Browns the good guy was the son also, in The Family That Preys it was the black husband as the good guy, in Madeas Big Happy Family we also saw a combination of positive black male roles..more so all of them. That also goes for Why Did I Get Maried.

Dont hate because he fiends for the lightskinned dudes..I just think that is his taste...and also trying to promote interracial dating (TFTP & WDIGM2 & I Can Do Bad All By Myself).

Well when a person is doing good there is also a band of people that dont like it so oh well.

NastradumasKid said:

I swear yall must be blind.



^This is unattractive?? Even with the baby hair?

The fine or not thing is for the ladies but dude looks
like an out of work porn star in this pic.

paisleypark4 said:

Oh please don't give me that "Everyone's a Perry hater cause he making money" BS. I don't hate Perry, I just don't necessarily like him or his coonery movies. All I said was if he took the time to be a better director and get better writers, maybe I'll think twice about him. And why would I hate because he has the light-skinned dudes? I'm light-skinned myself, but that's not the point. The point is that I just think you're mad because no one really likes nor care for Perry.

phunkdaddy said:

@Layzie, no I'm not blind, I don't think he's cute. Not all "light-skinned" brothers can make it work. Not everything is better lighter, don't believe what you hear.

I'm medium brown

Not too many people care for his films. And I don't care about his billions. Good for him. For a million dollars, I'll put on a wig and shoot at people too.

phunkdaddy said:

Never said he was ugly, I just don't find him attractive. I find men like Morris Chestnut attractive.

Timmy84 said:

Hey now, I LOVE all shades. I guess it's just a difference of opinion. I think he's fine though. He's a terrible actor but still fine. *kanye shrug*

I got ya. I guess I was too harsh, but still... I think Angela deserved better.
