I never did like any of his stuff.
The only thing I could really follow and pay attention to was the live theatre rendition of the Dairy of a Mad Black Woman. And that was on bootleg.
And that was only because it was physically impossible for him to play fifteen different characters at the same time.

i mean the dude did have a point...honestly if i was asian i would be ashamed of ben barraOriginally Posted by P MAC ONE
IMO the person who left that comment was in one of those "i'm tryna start some *%*+ right now" moods. Ben didn't really say anything negative at all.
I hate when black people start thinking that if a person of another ethnicity doesn't like any particular black person that they must be a racist.
"McCain hatin' on Obama in that commercial, ol' racist white dude"
(knowin damn well the commercial said nothing about race)

Not at all. He does what he does and you either hate it or love it. Sometimes people just read too much in to %%!%. You don't likedon't watch it then. It's not worth the argument because at the end of the day he still gon do what he gon do and people still gon accept it. Theblack community is !%!+$@ up and needs a complete overhaul and when people learn that then we will stop looking towards Hollywood to be positive role modelsand do the %%!% ourselves everyday. Oh well, that's just meOriginally Posted by eNPHAN
okay, so now that the days of vaudeville (white men dressed as black people, acting out the most disgusting and gross of stereotypes, which, at the time, was THE ONLY exposure a MAJORITY of white people had of black culture) are long gone...
not only are we, as a people, perfectly content with "leaders" (, he IS a former homeless crackhead...) of our black community stepping right into those vaudville-entertainment-type roles, cause, hey, it got him the first african-american-owned studio AND his bread is long, right?
,
not only that...
BUT WE FULLY SUPPORT THIS NONSENSE,
not only financially, but mainly with money, acclaim and praise....
I was shocked when the most intimidatingly intelligent black woman i've ever met, my boss and executive editor, got extremely geeked when TYler Perry was mentioned, and how she adores him soooooo much....i'm like, you have a brain tho!
i mean, i look at Soulja Boy in the same light...
yes, he's a young, independent dude getting his cake on....but at what expense?
selling pre-packaged, cookie-cutter, white-c.e.o.-approved shuck-and-jive music to young, white america?
Commerical rap music isnt even targeted to black people anymore....
at least Tyler Perry is marketed toward black people, i'd rather he sell his ****ing to other blacks, who would know the difference between the characters in his plays and a majority of black americans, than to white people, where it's PROVEN to have a negative affect through the development of bias, prejudice, hate and misunderstanding....(please, read up on the vaudeville circuit and it's influence on race relations in this country)
how is he a positive model in the black community when his main character is an elderly woman who stars in a plot driven by her imprisonment?
, dude's will just defend ANY black dude getting paper, huh?

I don't know about it being ****ery.
Approving speech about good hair and bad hair, colorism, etc. is ****ery and I haven't seen that anywhere in his plays or movies. I've seen Ntr'sdo it, stand up comedians do it, but I haven't seen any of that in Tyler Perry's works at all.
If your only complaint is the gangster grandma, well I don't know what to tell you since I had a grandma just like her as well as other female familymembers.
Anyway the Play was better than the Movie. Favorite moments include.

I wouldn't say that T. Perry movies are ****ery. His movies have meaning to them besides comedy. I haven't even seen his latest movie. The movies andplays that I have seen, promote family values and strong relationships. He's TV show is corny at time but you have to look behind the scene. The show isalready in syndication, they shot so many scenes and episode in such a short period of time. Most sitcoms have to be around nearly what, 5 seasons beforesyndication. Now that the show has reached that point, it's nothing but a consistant check.
None of his movies have major hollywood budgets, but they make big bucks at the movies. They employ black actors also, what other movies do you see other blackactors. For a long time if you where no Vivica Fox, Taye Diggs, Morris Chesnut, Gabrielle Union, Meghan Good, you where not getting a role in a black film.Popular movies like The Wood, The Best Man, Love & Basketball, etc. always have the same actors in common thru each movie.
I don't even see how people can see Tropical Thunder as a success, with a character playing in black face,(oscar nominated also). Then turn around and viewa T. Perry production as ****ery. Are Ice Cube productions ****ery also?

Ben's Blog
I'm convinced some of you guys quoting that comment and going "ooh he got ethered" didn't even bother to go to the blog because, if anything,it was the other way around. Ben typed up like an essay and it was actually a really good read.

A jewelery store in CPT?
Ben makes a pretty penny off "THOSE ACTIVITIES"(edited) when you see all the blackface parties on facebook/myspace that make the headlines theyalways have aluminum foil grills and fake jewelery
I think Ben has a great point with his entry but his clients might resent the higher thought process
