Thank you I half expect his garbage cans say "Tyler Perry's garbage cans" on the side of them.

Great you make tv shows and movies, do they all have to be Tyler Perry's such and such?

I bet he's one of those people who talks about himself in the 3rd person all the time too.
Russ hates that.

it's pretty simple - there aren't a lot of movies out there marketing towards the African American audience, and even less that aren't about gangs and violence. If you look at the numbers, something like 90% of the audience from his films are African Americans. I don't enjoy his films, but I can see why that portion of the population would like to see something resembling normal life in their communities.
