Why do we have to refer to what white people do like black directors cant make their own lane.....thats what ya'll said TP did...a lane of shitty movies.

Because you keep missing my point....no one on this thread seems to understand.

The rest of the country goes to:
Wes Craven, Sam Raimi - Horror
Judd Apatow - Crude comedy, Coming of Age comedy
James Cameron - Summer Blockbusters, Action
David Fincher - Nimble, thought provoking films
Michael Bay - See shit blow up

Blacks go to:
Tyler Perry - Everything nigga

See the difference. Yall expecting Perry to do shit yall wouldn't expect white directors to do. Nobody going to Will Ferrell's movie expecting to see "Inception" or "The King's Speech" but, because Perry the only black director doing it on a big level.....yall expect the nigga to be everything.

Lets not start dreaming....there will never be an "Inception" or "Matrix" for black folk...

No one in there right mind gonna spend $100-$150 Million on a Film who's target market is 13% of the population

The Black Swann cost 13 mil to make and made 294 million, and District 9 cost 30 mil to make and ended up making 210 mil worldwide.

most producers do not branch out... why should TP? folks stick to what they know.

do mofos ask Tiger Woods to branch off to hockey...smh?

Well tiger cant play hockey, but TP has sure enough made enough to make a different type of movie. One that can entertain, but enlighten the masses.

TP is comparable to fast food companies.....they will feed you bullshit for profit even if its bad for you.

Spike Lee is right,but TP had a point about Mrs.Doubtfire and Tootsie,whites are never really critical of there counterparts that do the same.As blacks if we don't like something we should just not fuck with it,chill with all the criticisms.

And Spike Lee is a real ass nigga,he say what the fuck he want.I remember when he went at Tarantino for dropping the N-bomb in Pulp Fiction,which was kinda outta pocket.(dead nigger storage ? really ?)

No one excusing them in this thread, they've been called out on it before (at least the bad ones). At least some of these guys good at their niche...... we just calling Perry out on his bullshit

Not so fast. In 2013 Will Smith is coming out with "The Last Pharoah". Which is an epic about the Nubian Pharoah Taharka.

I can't wait for that

Will's the exception lol...

I did a thread on that movie on here a month ago...i know about the film.

exactly! that's the problem with black folk. just like they expect obama to be all about them and nobody else, even when these mofos aint even voting and make up less than a quarter of the population.

these mofos buying bootlegs and downloading illegally offline and want to talk shit

You still comparing him to white directors.....Im talking about THE MOST SUCCESSFUL black director. Not what anyone else is doing. Notice how you said "everything nigga" not just a genre of movie....

And why would i expect a white director to bring the same as a black dude from louisiana? Do they dress up as women? And that niggas real name is Emmitt for gods sake..

This is all I'm saying...you have your niche and I respect that but why not try something new and not make it predictable...?

Lets be honest... Tyler Perry is just not Funny... enough
Hes not funny like the Klumps(the first one)... Like Sha Nay Nay... Like Wanda... Madea is just not funny enough.

Secondly.. Tyler Perry is redundant ...

Spike takes risk.. He takes time to really put detail into scenery... The moving still is all spike.. The colors and the way in which a character is introduced is film artistry. Spike takes his craft seriously.. Im sure he expects more out of someone who is banking heavily.

Perry doesnt take chances.. he stays in his lane and caters to his base

Tom Hanks and Dustin Hoffman just didn't pigeon hole their careers on one character that's the main difference.

true story

When me and my kids mom broke up and we were arguing and she told me how much she did for me I said. "Well you think I wanted to go see all those fuckin Tyler Perry moves I hated that shit"

tp movies will not change anyones perception of anything. he is not implanting any subliminal ideas into impressionable people. his movies wont make you violent, wont make you hate black men or women or cross dressing men.

his movies cater to people who already has a specific need.

that's like saying watching all the fast and furious movies would make a cautious driver all of a sudden a speed demon. the movie caters to already speed demons

Ya'll losing for giving a pass to this dude based off of what white folks are doing.......

This is why black folks stay losing, we letting white folks lead the way instead of expecting more from the people of our color that we support.

Why the fuck wouldnt you expect more from the first elected black president if theres never been one?

Straight sheep mentality...just follow and hopefully get where you want
