This Tyler Perry person, of whom I had never heard until last year when, out of nowhere, his name was suddenly affixed to every television or film production involving black folks in fat suits or badly made up to look old (hasn't Eddie Murphy already about worn out this "comedic" device???), apparently made $125 M last year... ONE HUNDRED TWENTY FUCKING FIVE MILLION DOLLARS!!! A cable tv comedy (ahem) series, a couple of films (rated 3.2 and 2.9 out of 10 stars by the film fans of IMDB.com) and what else I cannot tell you... and here's 125 mil for your troubles. For God's sake, Will Ferrell (who I would not so much as piss on were he set aflame) only made $31 M.
America... you continue to disappoint me with increasing, and alarming, frequency.
