Atlanta (CNN) -- A multiple-alarm fire broke out Tuesday night in a building at the Tyler Perry Studios in southwest Atlanta, a fire official told CNN.

It was subsequently extinguished, but firefighters were still checking the area for hotspots. It was not immediately clear what started the blaze.

One building partially collapsed, said Captain J.L. Bundrige with the Atlanta Fire Department. The fire was reported at 8:54 p.m., he said.

There were no reports of injuries.

The worst part, at first glance, is that I thought the topic title was the title of the next movie.

You mean like a black comedian in a fat suit dressed as a woman? Because that's the joke that keeps on giving.

Tyler Perry was the arsonist.

Did he use the techniques he learned from his safety team in the getaway?

On a serious note it's a good thing that no one got hurt.

ChocolateCupcakes · May 2, 2012

That must suck but I expect him to have enough money to bounce back.

The man is the black Roger Corman, he can shoot a movie that makes 27 million in someone's backyard. I mean this as a complainant, the man has a skill fo low budget exploitation movies. Just not the type I like.

OJdaKiller · May 2, 2012

The fire profiled him and was racist.

Izick · May 2, 2012

At least nobody was hurt.

In other news, a racial stereotype factory was forced to lay off 400 workers this evening.

I will summon the will to get out of bed and resume my life after this.

Yeah, no joke. I admire him more than I hate him. Even though his films suck.

Yeah, it's hard to hate his business acumen and ability to shoot cheap and make money.
