I have a lot of respect for Tyler but his work habits certainly aren't conducive to quality work.
Is it weird that I find the fact Tyler Perry shit is still being conveyor made and distributed even in the age of coronavirus weirdly comforting?
Title edited to avoid confusion.
Right? The guy just gets shit done. Quarantine process was longer than the film sessions. Very Impressive.

I saw a news story about the setup at his studio for COVID - bubble like NBA, has his whole team and set of actors there and they are set up to WORK. When there's nothing available for TV/movies starting this fall, he's going to have a windfall more than usual as he fills a gap.
He writes all of his work by himself and prides himself in that fact
I had a class in college with taught one of the most important people in the field anywhere in the country. The guy is famous with many books, was head of the main US association for the field, etc.
Anyway, so it's the very last class and this student walks in, puts his paper that 80% of the class grade is based on down on the table, and starts talking about he only began working on it the night before at 10 PM, how many graphs he used to pad it out, etc. This is all happening with the professor sitting at the end of the table with one eyebrow raised and a look like, "is this really happening?" as the TAs are all face palming and and look so mortified, knowing exactly how badly he's hurting himself.
Getting shit done quickly isn't nearly as impressive as getting shit done well in an efficient way. Based on anything I've seen from him, this wasn't the latter.

Hell make a movie just sitting in a chair soon for 1 hour
He's a billionaire that's out there busting his own ass. He wasn't sitting back on a beach somewhere while other people did it. You can count on one hand the number of billionaires out there that would do something like this right now.
I remember when he fired his writing staff for trying to unionize.
While that sounds terrible, I'm referring to this particular accomplishment. It undoubtedly took a ton of patience, coordination, and dedication to get something like this done. We can absolutely shit on him for firing his staff for attempting to unionize, but this is still an insane accomplishment given the fact that he could've outsourced all of it and just did "billionaire stuff."
He still did billionaire stuff by running his crew into to the ground to make this happen.
Stop defending and applauding the exploitation of workers
