Spike Lee is bored, needs something to do, sees an easy target in Perry and goes after it.
Tyler Perry wants to be taken seriously, sees Spike Lee as a threat considering his history in black cinema, and is defending his product.
I respect Lee speaking his mind and Perry defending himself, however both are misguided to me. Lee should focus on making a movie and swaying the black public away from that nonsense, somewhat similiar to what he did when he was insulted by Clint Eastwood's war movies.
Perry should understand the message his work does deliver, take a step out of his world and see exactly what these critics are talking about. I believe he has the ability to make something worthwhile, he just needs to believe he can.
