'Meet the Browns' -- pre-release buzz

[PeterB]

Lionsgate has announced Tyler Perry's 'Meet the Browns' for a July 1 Blu-ray debut:

No specs or extras yet, but the DVD is a special edition, so the Blu-ray should likewise include extras. Stay tuned.

MSRP is $39.98.

Man, Lionsgate is REALLY stepping up when it comes to number of releases. Especially being a smaller studio like they are.

I am not a fan of Tyler Perry in the least but Lionsgate is not messing around.

Kudos to them.

That's nice but where is Tyler Perry's 'Why Did I Get Married'?

[2nd_Gear]

I like Tyler Perry's movies. I'll be getting this one for sure.

Haven't seen this one but if you've seen one of Tyler Perry's movies/plays you've seen them all. Pass for me on this one.

i liked on ESPN page 2, they gave an NBA postseason award to Tyler Perry. Most advertisements seen for a product with least useage: 11000 hours advertised, 0 minutes watched. big pass. but don't get me wrong, he does have a talent for making money, as his films are very modestly budgeted and can always pull in 20-40m. just like Kevin Smith (save for Jersey Girl).

but what i find interesting: Isn't Daddy's Little Girls one of the worst selling 's? if this one flops, it'll be interesting.

The MSRP in the article is listed as $34.99, which may be incorrect. Amazon and DVD Empire both show this film as having a $39.99 MSRP (which is typical new release pricing from Lionsgate).

Where did you hear this? Not that I don't believe it, just curious. I personally thought that movie was good, but I'm a fan of Gabrielle Union.

I'm definitely not a fan of the pandering and stereotyping that pervade Perry's films, but I will begrudgingly applaud more of Ms. Union in HD.

[kosvines]

I've never seen anything with Tyler Perry, but I've ordered both this and Daddy's Little Girls. His movies seem good on paper.

[Saturn_Blu-ray]

I gave Tyler Perry a chance and watched "Why did I get married" in HD on pay per view and was very surprised that I ......enjoyed it!

I am wanting to see this one also because I like Angela Bassett.
