Lionsgate Signs Tyler Perry for Two More FilmsPosted: March 5th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
|
 
On the heels of Tyler Perry's #1 movie "Madea Goes to Jail," Lionsgate has announced they it has signed Perry to write, direct and star in "Tyler Perry's I Can Do Bad All By Myself" and "Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too."
Academy Award-nominee Taraji P. Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) stars in "Tyler Perry's I Can Do Bad All By Myself," which is based on Perry's play of the same name. His signature character, the indomitable Madea, will be featured in the film. Principal photography is scheduled to begin on March 16th at the new Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta. The film is expected to be released nationwide on September 11th, 2009.
"Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too" is a sequel to the 2007 critical and box office hit "Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married?." Principal photography will begin later this year, and the film is expected to be released nationwide on Easter weekend, April 2nd, 2010.
Tyler Perry has released seven films through Lionsgate since "Diary of a Mad Black Woman" in February 2005, and they have collectively grossed nearly $350 million at the North American box office. Lionsgate has also sold nearly 25 million DVDs of Perry's films and video catalog titles.
Lionsgate's television syndication company has delivered 126 episodes of his highly successful television series, "House of Payne," which is airing in a dual window on TBS and in Fox station group-led syndication, and 80 episodes of his "House of Payne" spin-off, "Meet The Browns," have already been ordered to air on TBS this summer and in Fox station group-led syndication in Fall 2010.

Why? Why? Why are people paying money for these films? Do you have to be black to see what the inside joke is? I dont get it.

the films are commercially successful because the audience it appeals to is constantly ignored, so even if the quality is low, the audience will still show up

This is even worse than the "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon is a Hit" article.

Obviously, in order to comment on the films you are one of the ones paying money to see them. Tyler Perry has found his niche and is a very successful Black man. If you are successful as a lawyer, would you try to become a doctor just to please others?...I doubt it. Regardless if dlrppr, meanmonkey22, or others "get it", Tyler Perry will continue to turn his plays, which have been shown in African-American homes for the last decade or more, into movies and make money. Don't hate, appreciate.

this is what i don't understand, I'm not a fan of his movies, but it has been noted...that these movies aren't be relayed to the people who want to see them, if the guy is making money in a postive way...why must he be put down because of it, I'm pretty sure if Liongate gave any one of you millions to do movies, you wouldn't turn it down. He needs to step his game up, but hey it is what it is...
