Character A: Black male hood rat, "playa", pretty boy, who acts a fool

Character B: Black male with some level of employment, who attempts to be Character A, but with "class" and a level of "vulnerability" (awkwardness, or PHAIL), who eventually gets smitten by Character C or D.

Character C: Black female (aka strong black woman) who's every life problem can be solved by "the right man" to live with/take in (who apparently is always, without fail, a questionably impressive Character B)

Character D: Black female (aka strong independent black woman) who at some point rejects Character B, and is therefore an evil bitch, who has brought every evil in the world upon herself because she rejected "a good black man"

Character E: Tyler Perry in drag.

[–]wheresmysnack 38 points39 points ago

You forgot the evil and/or stupid token white person/people.

[–]wolf156 21 points22 points ago

[–]homeboy5925 7 points8 points ago

that is quite hilarious

[–]wolf156 0 points1 point ago

There's only 4 songs on the album too. It's all remix's of the same songs. IF they really wanted to tempt me to pay more then a dollar they should of locked up Johnathan Coulton or They Might Be Giants.

[–]valduck17 1 point2 points ago

Was there even a white person in "Meet the Browns"?

[–]wheresmysnack 0 points1 point ago

I dunno. I only ever seen a few bits and pieces of his movies in passing.

I do know some white people who just think Tyler Perry is so funny, I guess they don't notice the fact that most white people in Tyler Perry films are moronic stereotypes.

[–]valduck17 0 points1 point ago

White people think Tyler Perry is funny, because they think just because a black person says a bunch of racist, insulting, stero-typical things, it's "ok". He's the black face for every ignorant "O the things the Blacks do" thought that crosses their minds, so they say it's "just a joke" or "funny". Case a point: Everyone loses in these movies, black people just lose more.

[–]TwentySteven 2 points3 points ago

Not true, unfortunately he does have a fan base I get asked at my job if we carry any of his movies at Target quite often...and I know they see it in my face that I am not a fan.

[–]Last_Years_Villain 1 point2 points ago

My ex-girlfriends mom was hella pissed when she found out we didn't see his movies. Because they "need to stick together" (She was black).

[–]Swatman 0 points1 point ago

dat racism.

[–]Jumin 3 points4 points ago

No freaking kidding he has a fan base

[–]ShitsCrazyMan -2 points-1 points ago

And here i thought he would be out of business anytime soon...

[–]PrincessDickFart 4 points5 points ago

My mom loves his movies because she is a 45 year old black woman. You are not the target audience.

Unfortunately that fact will never get through to the rest of Reddit. Reddit's demographic tends to be the default assumed target demographic for most media that is produced in the US. Something that isn't explicitly produced for them simply doesn't compute.

TL;DR Youre a bunch of twats.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

So what exactly is as bad as Tyler Perry's films and has Reddit as its target audience? Rage comics?

[–]assblaster7 0 points1 point ago

People like different shit, and Reddit hates that.

[–]Kids_On_Coffee 34 points35 points ago

i saw one of his movies. i think it was Madea Goes To Jail. The characters seem to create their own problems, whine and bitch over the fallout and decide that everything's okay because of Jesus. Meanwhile, Madea acts like a crazy bitch in public and its all okay at the end. WTF? its like glorifying socially unacceptable behavior and reinforcing negative stereotypes

[–]Tyler_Perry_ 29 points30 points ago

Personally,I loved that movie i'd recommend you watch it again.

[–]classic__schmosby 15 points16 points ago

Is it on purpose or just a coincidence that you used Eddie Murphy, who used to play multiple characters in movies just like Tyler Perry now does?

[–]homeboy5925 5 points6 points ago

yea but eddie murphy was funny

[–]Kunkletown 0 points1 point ago

Not when he was playing the multiple characters... Eddie Murphy hasn't been genuinely funny in a long long time.

[–]homeboy5925 3 points4 points ago

coming to america was funny and he played like every character in that movie

and im not gonna lie...i enjoyed the nutty professor

shoot me

[–]Kunkletown 1 point2 points ago

I think Coming to America was sufficiently long ago to qualify as "a long long time." So yeah, agreed. I'm not sure I saw the Nutty Professor.

EDIT: Wait, didn't Eddie play multiple characters in Coming to America? Hmm. I guess maybe I have to retract my original statement. Maybe I should say things go downhill when these guys start playing fat black women. Not that Martin Lawrence was EVER even remotely funny.

[–]homeboy5925 1 point2 points ago

eddie murphy was like 20 people in coming to america

he was so many people there were times when the audience didnt even know it was him

[–]Greflin 0 points1 point ago

[–]dkey1983 10 points11 points ago

I think it's because all of his characters are one dimensional and not funny. It has little to do with it not being aimed toward a young white male audience.

[–]Nebulaoblivion 0 points1 point ago

I don't know if I clicked the wrong thing on netflix streaming, or netflix just had some spaz moment and sent me to the wrong movie.. But I don't consider some guy trying to rape his girlfriends fifteen year old sister funny, I mean seriously WHAT THE FUCK? YOU SAID IT WAS A FUCKING COMEDY NETFLIX!

[–]playmer 2 points3 points ago

What?

[–]Nebulaoblivion 2 points3 points ago

I think it was called "Tyler Perry's Madea, I can be bad all by myself"

It was not funny.

[–]homeboy5925 1 point2 points ago

not all of his movies are funny, some of them are melodramatic as fuck and play out like R Kelly's Trapped in the Closet (chapters 1 through 5, after that R Kelly just starts trolling)

"Someone". It's called the world. If you receive any down votes for this post, it's because the world thinks you're pointing out the obvious.

[–]Avista -1 points0 points ago

The $130.000.000 he made between 2010 and 2011, earning him the title as the highest earning entertainer in that period, says otherwise.

It's almost as if there's several groups of people in the world not represented on Reddit.

Now, I'm not saying that I enjoy Tyler Perry. In fact, I've NEVER watched anything with Tyler Perry because Denmark isn't regarded a market for his movies. Wonder why...

[–]moudine 2 points3 points ago

Forget Reddit, I have never met one single person who enjoys those shows or movies regardless of race or age or whatever else. And I live in America.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Just because you don't know anyone that does, doesn't mean no one does. He can't make 130 million if only a couple people liked his movies.

[–]faradayscoil 3 points4 points ago

I have southern middle class black friends who think he's absolutely hilarious. They say I just can't get it

[–]dkey1983 2 points3 points ago

[–]dirtythrowaway47 8 points9 points ago

[–]inherendo 1 point2 points ago

I think it is the worst movie I have ever seen in all my life.

[–]homeboy5925 0 points1 point ago

soul plane was okay if you dont take it seriously

that's the thing about black movies; you have to put all seriousness to the side and appreciate it for what it is. cheesy as fuck

[–]tiyx 10 points11 points ago

Blame Oprah. She i the only reason you know the name Tyler Perry.

[–]juma606 2 points3 points ago

Tyler Perry's first film debuted #1 at the box office, before Oprah ever mentioned the guy.

[–]WeeBabySeamus 2 points3 points ago

Tyler Perry was doing plays that were wildly successful before he adapted then to the movie screen

[–]homeboy5925 4 points5 points ago

I was dragged to one of these plays by my parents. It was the blackest thing I've ever seen in my life, and I'm black. 25% black pop culture references 25% overly dramatic "oh no she didnt" moments 50% gospel choir

[–]thepartyandafter 0 points1 point ago

That's really good math.

[–]PrincessDickFart -4 points-3 points ago

Sup uncle.

[–]homeboy5925 1 point2 points ago

not an uncle tom at all, I just don't like being pandered to. Tyler Perry is to black people what MC Chris is to nerds, except way more successful at it

[–]WeeBabySeamus 0 points1 point ago

I'm not a big fan of Tyler Perry at all, but I see his purpose in filling a gap in narrative rather than as pandering.

There is/was nothing out there in mainstream culture where you could have a full cast of black people other than pure comedies. Even though I disliked the plot, I still felt moved by Diary of a Mad Black Woman during Kimberly Elise's monologue about having enough of her husband.

The same goes for any other non-mainstream group/ethnicity. Thats why there are so many Asian American, LGBT, etc etc movie festivals. The movies are all terrible and definitely pandering, but there is something to be said about relating with whats on the screen and feeling moved by it at the same time.

[–]homeboy5925 1 point2 points ago

I have no problem with black cinema. Old Wayans movies, Spike Lee movies like Do the Right thing or School Daze, Black Presidents, Paid in Full, the list goes on. Difference between those movies and Tyler Perry movies is that those movies depicted black people outside of normal stereotypes and if they did address them within the context of stereotypes, it was for the purpose of causing introspection into why people behave in this particular manner.

The best example of why I hate Tyler Perry is the character of Mr. Brown. He is literally Uncle Remus. He's a jigaboo, a low education buffoon. If a white person had a character like that, black people would be up in arms with pitchforks. But if Tyler Perry does it, it's okay. I just feel like his movies messages are really convoluted. They're also super dramatic and fucked up and then they throw Jesus in there for no reason. I feel like Tyler Perry movies are written by white people who are trying to make black people movies and doing so based off of thin stereotypes.

But at the same time, I can't hate the guy. He's a hustler and has made his money. Dude went from being homeless to the highest money maker in hollywood. I just feel like he's doing so at the expense of black culture. We are more than just Jesus and "ooo no he didnt." It's like I get it, strong black women and Jesus.

[–]WeeBabySeamus 0 points1 point ago

I absolutely get what you are saying. I've been following Asian American cinema and its just as bad. Stereotypes and accents left and right with overdramatic plotlines and terrible acting on top of all of that that. But people still watch it because there really is nothing else out there where people can see faces that look like theirs, share their culture/upbringing, and at the same time be entertained.

Its definitely not the best stuff out there in terms of quality, but that gap it fills is something. Maybe one day there will be another Spike Lee to fill that up, but right now (unfortunately) there is Tyler Perry opening doors to show that a movie with a non white cast can actually make money (which is all Hollywood cares about anyway).

[–]Assmar 1 point2 points ago

I'm just wondering how badly he will murder the Alex Cross movie coming out.

[–]myvoicefromhell 0 points1 point ago

I just saw that trailer about two hours ago. At first I laughed because I thought it was a comedy. Then I just stared in disbelief. And lastly, cringing occurred. I believe cringing is still occurring.

[–]fuckingnihilists 0 points1 point ago

Morgan Freeman already ruined Alex Cross on film. I seriously doubt the new one will be worse than Kiss The Girls, even with Tyler Perry.

No OP, you are the only person on Reddit who doesn't enjoy Tyler Perry. Every other time he's been brought up he has been met with praise for his amazing art.

Title should be: Everyone else here feels this way.. karmaplz?

[–]blackjakk 1 point2 points ago

No just you man. We all love Tyler Perry.

[–]filez41 1 point2 points ago

I really appreciate that he puts his name on everything he does. It's like the greatest warning label for me, it just screams DO NOT WATCH THIS. It has probably saved me countless hours of bad tv shows and movies.

[–]zenthor109 4 points5 points ago

I have only ever been ashamed to be black when watching a Tyler Perry movie.

[–]homeboy5925 1 point2 points ago

I can bare them usually. There will be a funny line or two. But they just get so...stereotypical at times. I don't know.

And Mr. Brown is a straight up minstrel. It's embarassing

From another post i did, so this might get lost again. Well he does Director, Write, Producer, and Act in all of his movies. ($$$) So I can see how they don't always seem to flow right. But Martin Lawrence did a better job at a "Thin Line Between Love and Hate". And he was high the whole time.

I feel that way about anything with Tyler Perry, except for Star Trek. I don't know how the fuck he snuck into that film.

[–]homeboy5925 0 points1 point ago

oh god 20 year old white dudes dont like stuff that is made for old black women

the horror

is it really such a hard concept to understand that the world does not exist to please you, and that there are things out there that are not marketed towards you? The people who find Tyler Perry funny probably think Community isn't funny. Apples and oranges people.

addendum: I hate tyler perry as well. But not because it isn't funny, but because it's straight minstrel.

[–]PrincessDickFart 0 points1 point ago

My mom loves his movies because she is a 45 year old black woman. You are not the target audience.

Unfortunately that fact will never get through to the rest of Reddit. Reddit's demographic tends to be the default assumed target demographic for most media that is produced in the US. Something that isn't explicitly produced for them simply doesn't compute.

[–]iagainsti 0 points1 point ago

You're asking Reddit if anyone else thinks that way? NOPE no one thinks that way. It's only you.

No shit other people feel that way. There's always at least one person that thinks the same as you anyway. The only people who like Tyler Perry shows are middle aged black women.

I find it co-incidental that the gif you posted also applies to what I think of your post.

I never feel that way when trying to watch Tyler Perry. Probably because I've never tried.

I got high and drunk and honestly expected to enjoy his movies. Even high and drunk they were the worst movies I've ever seen.

Omg what an edgy and risky minority viewpoint! So brave of you to go against the hive mind! So brave! Hey guys, DAE else think Nickelback isn't the greatest?

It's hard to watch Madea movies when it turns from good humor into someone getting raped or a prostitute out on the streets getting beaten by her pimp later on. Every Madea movie. Why Tyler Perry... Why...

black guy here ex girlfriend also black was in love with this stuff so i have had my fair share and i couldn't agree more with the sentiments expressed in this gif.

I'm a white guy, but I have long felt that I'd be offended by Tyler Perry's work if I were black. Hell, even as a white guy, I'm offended.

Also how I feel watching anything new with Eddie Murphy in it, what a coincidence.

Sorry, missed the "new" part.

Who the fuck is Tyler Perry? The only place I have ever heard his name mentioned is on reddit. Although, judging from the hate he gets on here, maybe I am better off not knowing who he is.

I thought they were referring to Aerosmith but the internet has answers.

Tyler Perry

I enjoy watching Tyler Perry movies, I find them entertaining... please don't hate me :(

[–]polarflares -3 points-2 points ago

I feel like an outside for liking Tyler Perry.

Or maybe no black people are commenting...?

[–]ElBohemio 4 points5 points ago

Guy pretending to be a black guy here.. Tyler Perry is the worst thing to happen to black people since white people.

[–]dkey1983 -1 points0 points ago

You really should. Ask somebody who isn't black to direct movies of that quality and watch them be attacked by every critic in existence.
