So Tyler Perry's last three movies were flops. Have people finally had enough?

He starred in Alex Cross: FLOPPED
He wrote and directed Temptation: FLOPPED
He produced Peeples: FLOPPED

He has his go to cashcow "Madea does something or other" coming out at the end of this year. I have a feeling that it might do numbers since it's billed as a family christmas movie.

But I think it's a good sign that his name alone isn't getting people out to the theaters anymore.

Alex Gross Was Trash

Temptations Cost 20 And He Made 51 Milli Sounds Like A Win To Me

And Peeples Suffered From Horrible Release Date, I Honestly Didnt Even Know That Movie Was Out, And That Suppose To Be One Of His Less c00nish Movies.

I actually thought about seeing peebles because as far as I know he didn't have shyt to do with it other than put money behind it...looks to be a decent enough, if shamelessly derivative, negro version of meet the parents...I'm fan of all three of the leads in kerry Washington, david allen grier and Craig Robinson... anybody see it?

Peeples came out already? :wow:

That flop was on him . Even though it looked like it would suck.


I sure hope this is it so he can go back to the studio and start putting more effort into his films again. I'm tired of his shyt but he has a decent flick out of every five he puts out :ehh:

i dont think the low production costs of his movies will allow any of his movies to flop

I can't stand his c00n movies. Spike Lee was right the whole time. I don't even like Spike but I have never watched a bad Spike Lee movie

I wouldn't call them c00n movies...just not very good movies.

He makes movies for his audience and they love it and eat it up. Oprah's cosign helps too (and she is FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR from a c00n).


However, Temptation wasn't even close to a flop.

Even with Peeples, his studio just produced it, it wasn't written/directed by him (which is why I'll probably go see it just off the strength of him giving another black director/writer some shine - one of his biggest criticisms with his studio)
