Perry's movies seem to always make between $50 to $70 million


One thing I noticed about Tyler Perry's movies is they are profitable but I notice his movies usually make between $50 to $70 million dollars. Madea Goes To Jail was the only Tyler Perry movie to make over $70 million that movie made $91 million. I thought this movie would pull in more cash since it does seem that Perry is trying to cross over to a white audience. But the profit margin is still the same.

That is a a rather valid that most Tyler Perry films make less than $100 million and Madea goes to Jail is the most successful film that he made.

Having a white cast will not pull in a white audience especially already after having a reputation for making bad films. And when his black audience gets bored with Madea (which they someday will at the rate these movies are being made), he'll be in serious trouble. If he's a smart man he'll give at least a three year gap between each Madea film.

It's because TP is a Mason... his movies will continue to do well. Research.
