if that were true Tyler wouldnt be making any more movies. just because your tastes dont like his work but the fact is he makes a lot of money off of his movies and will continue on until he dies or people dont watch his movies anymore

Hey, I paused. The first time I heard of Perry, it was a commercial for one of his plays, from the look of it. I thought to myself "Damn, that looks really stupid. It was from the series where he plays the big fat lady. I tell ya, that never gets old between him, Martin Lawrence, Eddie Murphy...

the difference is murphy and lawrence started that 10-20 years ago, he's just cashing in on an old concept and throwing in a bunch of one-dimensional characters.

Tyler Perry, 37, is building a maverick media company by translating “urban theater”— the often melodramatic, revival-style stage plays that tour the country catering to black audiences—into mainstream movies and television shows. It's a niche he has come to dominate so thoroughly that he is able to do things in Hollywood that most others—especially newcomers—simply can't. In September, Perry opened Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, one of the first movie studios in this country owned by an African American. He made his first two films—2005's Diary of a Mad Black Woman and 2006's Madea's Family Reunion —with Lions Gate Entertainment for a total of just $11 million. They both opened at No. 1, and together they grossed over $110 million. Since 1998 his 11 touring stage plays have brought in over $150 million. And DVDs of the movies and plays have sold more than 11 million copies . “ I'll always serve the niche ,” Perry says, “ because they are me. They held me up and walked me through and brought me to this point. But with each film, each play, we're trying to pull it a little higher, and we'll just keep stretching and see how far they're willing to go .”

He is doing very well for himself

As if the movie industry can exist on your tastes alone! Do your siblings and close friends share your tastes? Let me guess NO

Well, they are called "demographics"

I can't help but notice the OP ducked out a long time ago while everyone else danced like trained monkeys. I hate when that happens.
