White People In A Tyler Perry Movie?

Apparently the world fell into a wormhole and ended up in aurora bizzaroalis over the weekend, because there are white people in the new Tyler Perry movie, The Family That Preys:

"Every truth begins with a lie. Every dream has a dark side. Every choice has a consequence. Every Tyler Perry movie has 47 plotlines." Is it racist that I think this movie looks terrible? I know that bearded Brooklyn Jews in their late 20s who used to love Pavement aren't really the intended audience, but I haven't seen this many IMPORTANT REALIZATIONS and TELEGRAPHED INTENTIONS since my high school put on a play about Safe Sex during fourth period. But I don't think I'd even skip class to see this.

Used to like Pavement? Why stop? But yeah this looks terrible. Then again I've never really been a fan of Tyler Perry, I always feel like I'm watching a neverending stream of inside jokes that I'm not a part of.

Oh I totally forgot to mention in the last comment, my real reason for commenting, you posted the wrong trailer. Looks like a great movie though.

Late 20's? Was this post written in a time machine?

Hey, don't hate just because you're in your golden years. I have like three more weeks of youth.

I haven't seen the trailer yet and I know it's going to be a bad movie because it's a Tyler Perry film. It's not racist because he sucks (and I guess if I can say it, that makes it okay).

movies are liked by different people it appears when black Americans make movies that are directed towards African Americans it become a race issues there have been thousands of movies in which blacks could not relate but it was okay.Lets not hate if you do not like Tyler Perry or his moves it is okay but do make it a race issue I love what he as done to assist people of all race see that you can do anything you want if you work hard if you try
