Why do People Complain about Tyler Perry Movies?

I mean he is doing the best he can in a cutthroat industry. The movie executives and CEO's of the big production companies are mostly greedy Jews, and will only finance movies they think will make money. It seems sad to me that despite being a group of people that experienced discrimination and racism that they are unwilling to help out other groups of people who are also discriminated against. Sadly it seems they discriminate just as much in their movies, seeming to stick to hiring their own for movies and production and giving each other positions and gigs.

Anyway, apparently the general public which is white folks, only like movies with black people in them when they are Big Fat cross dressing Mammy's. Black people have moved up the respect ladder from the old movies with white people in black face, and then black people only being maids to kick butt modernized super-Mammy's. Also, many white people enjoy seeing black characters for comic relief as a sort of court jester. Now we've moved up to entertaining white folks by being ghetto gangsters or poor abused and in need of the white savior like in movies Precious and The Blind Side. Look at Disney, we went from being represented as animals in the Lion King to actually being featured in a movie in the Princess and the Pea!

So how can Tyler Perry make movies with successful, healthy, and stable black characters when the general white public doesn't want to pay to go see those movies? They make up the majority in the country so a movie can't bring in the bucks unless it appeals to the majority of the public which is white people.

So I'd like to say that it is self defeating for black people to complain about Tyler Perry Movies because he is the only one doing movies about black people and actually hiring black people especially black females. Don't dream of getting a role in a regular movie if you aren't a half white one btw. If it wasn't for him, half of the black actors would be out of work besides Will Smith and Densel Washington, two black actors which have managed to win over white the white public.
