fuck that guy.
when i was a kid, i read a book about a little boy who wouldn't share anything because he was a selfish little bastard, as most kids are. to remedy the situation, his mom put his name on every single thing he owned. all his toys, various foods in his lunchbox, all the way down to his underwear. although it was sort of a cunty move, it worked, and the boy was so embarrassed about all the labels that he stopped being a prick.
that would never work with tyler perry. for fuck's sake, every single movie or tv show this guy is involved with has his ownership listed at the start. tyler perry's madea's family reunion, tyler perry's meet the browns, tyler perry's madea falls and breaks her hip and shits her depends. enough already.
i understand the need for branding, to a point. i guess early on he wanted to get his name out there. but you've made it dude. use less words in your titles. did you see "steven spielberg's schindler's list"? no you fucking didn't. because he didn't put his goddamn name in the title. really small above the title it says, "a film by steven spielberg". i obviously don't know the guy, but it wouldn't surprise me if the studio made him put even that on there.
now granted, i've never seen one tyler perry movie or tv show, but the commercials overwhelm me and i just want them to stop. for once i'd like to see a movie or tv show with a predominantly black cast and maybe have to wonder for a second if tyler perry was involved rather than having the fucker shout it at me from the title.
i bet when he goes home at night, he eats tyler perry's dinner on tyler perry's plates and then knocks back a few of tyler perry's beers before taking a tyler perry's shit and having a tyler perry's shower before laying down in tyler's perry's bed and dreaming tyler perry's dreams, produced and directed by tyler perry.
