Tyler Perry’s Black Urban Star Trek Prequel
After providing their fictional future universe with a black blind dork, a gruff black guy with bumps on his head and sash, a black commander and IBM endorser, and a black Spock, the owners of the Star Trek franchise are clearly running out of ways to push the series into the "urban markets" they've heard so much about.
Possibly inspired by George Lucas bringing the misplaced badass-ness of Samuel L. Jackson into Star Wars, they have one last, gospel-inspired ace up their sleeve and his name is Tyler Perry.
Yes, the man who brought you Tyler Perry's Hey, I'm Dressed Like an Old Fat Lady, Tyler Perry's Hey, I'm Still Dressed Like an Old Fat Lady, and Tyler Perry's Tyler Perry and Friends Go Through Marital Strife with Janet Jackson is reportedly joining J.J. Abrams' Star Trek prequel as the head of Starfleet Academy.
I have to hand it to you, fellas. Nothing says "urban market" (and a high probability for morbidly obese cross-dressing) like Tyler Perry, except maybe Eddie Murphy or Martin Lawrence.
This will surely be your entrance to the world of hip-hop music and cryptic slang that you've tried so long to grasp.
What do you guys think- To be a Hit OR Miss?

I think your post is stupid, and somewhat racist.
somewhat racist? what do you mean by "somewhat"?
I think he means "awesomely".
You sir are a charlatan and an idiot.
Sir? Molly is a sir?
The humor misses just a bit. But still funny.
Tyler Perry must die, and if this is true, so must the entire Star Trek franchise.
I read this elsewhere too.
Tyler Perry is an abomination that black people love because they are told to.
Can this be verified?
You talked about black people that makes you a racist now! How dare you imply that black culture is associated with hip-hop and slang! For your sake I hope you aren't white because everyone knows a white person isn't allowed to make observations of any other race.
As far as hit or miss goes I think he has to the right look for the role the rest will lie in his action abilities.
Talking about black people is good. Feeling the need to remind us of every other black person in science fiction (except Lawrence Fishburne), and comedy (except Flip Wilson) - and then presuming that an "urban market" will be attracted, and that hip-hop and slang will naturally enter into the 23rd century - well that may be stretching it.
I recently learned that all white people are like Woddy Harrelson and Frazer Crane and the rest are as goofy as the characters in "The Office". I think this colum confirms it.
