However, Tyler Perry is the exception to that rule. His magic for his last 2 movies and the money he made is very interesting...
Yup; "Madea" was tops at the box office for the 2nd straight weekend. And, that's not just with TP's movies; you'll notice that "Black movies" often finish strong in the box office (even in the presence of other potential strong finishers/blockbusters released the same weekend). When we go to the movies, it shows...and that speaks volumes to me (as an avid moviegoer).
