Should the Epic Movie, Date Movie, etc. genre embarrass me because it's continually produced by the same lame white guy(s)?

Apples and Oranges. Epic Movie, etc.. are obviuos "Spoofs" making fun of other movies NOT white people.

The Tyler Perry crap is basically using common black stereotypes for cheap laughs.

I hear ya, I'm from NO, but the thing is when he first came out, it was fresh and everything, the quality of the plays were good, but now that he's made his money, he doesn't care as much anymore with the quality, you can tell, btw, you know he's from NO, right?

yeah he says he is from N.O. but the dude is somewhat of a mystery. he treats people like crap
and will never allow anyone else to outshine him. his name has to be on every marquee.

He is arrogant and feels he doesn't have to put out quality as long as his core audience is giving him their money.

I think this statement could apply to most big time actors and entertainers now. The quality of everything is going downhill, fast. Music sucks and movies have no real story anymore.

So he's the black version of a cross between Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy. Sounds about right.

Well said. Ignorant (no matter black or white) should be something a race of people should be proud of...
