1. He makes films for a dollar fifty and they gross 60 million.
2. His scripts read like random clippings from a book of coupons and they touch on everything from family, to romance to a cop movie to a fart comedy.
3. Rumors abound that he is as gay as the ace of spades but he denies it, although he does have Gay Eyes and looks like RuPaul when he takes off his makeup. (I only deal in science.)
4. His first film “Diary of a mad black woman” is called “Diary of a mad black woman”
5. He has a show on TBS called “Tyler Perry’s House of Pain” which TBS ordered 100 episodes of. 100 EPISODES. To begin with that is INSANE. It also got the highest ratings for a TBS series in their history with 5.8 million viewers; in conclusion, THAT IS FUCKING INSANE.
6. His website is a peach colored barrage of god knows what and now he has an internet TALK SHOW, which is all about him. It is also known as an infomercial. Take a gander , it is amazing.
7. I’d ask him to stop but he’d turn stopping into a 50-project franchise.
8. His films out-box office Ben Stiller and George Clooney movies to a degree beyond embarrassing. Ohh Hollywood when will you ever learn?
9. “Madea’s Family Reunion” is a mental Triathlon…good luck with following the plot line. We tried and are still in therapy.
10. Who the fug is Tyler Perry?!

Tyler Perry is like New Kids on the Block in that if you visit StreetCarnage on a regular basis then he’s not working with you in mind therefore he’s beyond criticism.

It’s not my fault that my niche market is so much bigger than yours.
Let’s face it, how many adderall addled trust fund hipsters actually use those trust funds to make new money, and new trustafarians? Your audience is a dying breed.
06.11.08 at 2:04 pm
You tell them Tyler!
06.11.08 at 2:27 pm
Oh Mr. Perry, so sassy! Say, speaking of dying breeds, weren’t you born in New Orleans?
I have no time for B films while perched on this throbbing heap of cash and prescription stimulants.

I think he must have cast his gay lover as the romantic lead in his new movie “Meet the Browns”.

Sweet Home New Orleans, built and destroyed, and now being rebuilt
by the same rogue elements of Americana that started and keep those
trust funds afloat.
A funny thing about old money, it can be traced, so next time your buying an
eight ball from someone whose parents didn’t buy there college education,
think about the real reason that old money hates new money.

Sure you can trace old money, but when it leads to Ray “Flapjack” Perry and a barrel full of crawfish it tends to drop the air of dignity you’d like us to acknowledge.

is it bad that after 50% of your blog entries i have to look somebody up on wikipedia?

[...] Streetbonersandtvcarnage (horrible name for an excellent site) has a list of the “Nine Things I Know About Tyler Perry And One I Never Will…” [...]

This is a mystery that I have legitimately NOT been trying to explore.
Still, it is a mystery.

“Meet The Browns” is my new expression for “Taking a Shit”, as in, “I have to go Meet the Browns”.

The reason he has such a HUGE following is because of his plays!!! The movies are based on his huge hit plays that touched on black family issues in a way that no other playwright was able to do. Everybody bought DVDs of his plays. i remember having to sit through his plays anytime there was a family reunion/funeral/holiday growing up.
i love it how hipsters “discover” shit. I mean, just because you aren’t familiar with something doesn’t mean it “poofed” out of nowhere. Ask any of your token black friends about Tyler Perry. I GUARANTEE they know just about all of his plays.

I saw an awesome Tyler Perry shirt on an old lady in a Big Lots parking lot (I was buying a picture frame and some Skittles). On the back it said “I AINT SCARED A NO PO PO!” I was all like ROFL.

Tyler Perry,
Did you recently read the Hipsters Handbook or something?
