Perry's "Madea Goes To Jail" is the new Ernest
Tyler Perry's "Madea Goes To Jail" made $14.7 million dollars at the box office on Friday night. It'd be wrong to say that Perry's "Madea" series is full of racial stereotypes, because Madea is pretty much the new Ernest P. Worrell. And I don't think Jim Varney ever played off white stereotypes. Still, do we have to cross-dress to get a #1 movie?
