So even though you can't trace a single problem in the
black community to Tyler Perry, its okay to hate on
Tyler Perry films because of this magical role they
have in the black community's downfall. This is the
case, even if his overall role is, if anything, positive:
he employs blacks, is a wonderful model for a self-made,
hard working man who took on the hollywood gods, and won.


That's called "stupidity." Not "caring what he has to
say."

Why Did I get Married was good

Meet the Browns was funny and good.

The Family that Preys was excellent

A lot of his films are actually pretty good.
