Even Dhar Mann has better sets, writing and even to some extent actors. If Tyler Perry is this wealthy he has no excuse to make low quality films.

    The recent financial disaster that is “The Bride” is almost completely correlated to poor spending. I believe the studio spent around $190 million after promotion and marketing on what was arguably an amazing indie arthouse film that should have been made on a tiny budget. It’s just so niche.

    Tyler Perry cranks out low budget films that have an extremely low financial hurdle to clear before they become profitable.

      I’m Confused as to why you’re so convinced the bride would be amazing If it had A tiny budget but hey whatever.

        I think they mean IF the Bride didn’t have such a massive advertising budget, it probably could have sold more than it cost. Smaller advertising would have resulted in less sales overall, but would require less sales to become profitable.
