I have seen ³Why Did I Get Married². And I have seen ³I Think I Love My
Wife². I can¹t believe I¹m saying this, but Tyler Perry has done a better
film. Tyler has clearly learned from his own mistakes (this is a Madea-free

Tyler Perry is the new Spike Lee. Nothing more, nothing less. Spike did
movies to get people talking and bring the community out. It worked.
If we're gonna be worried about a Black director's success making it hard
for more serious Black filmmakers...what about Tim Story?
