If anything it proves how overpaid he truly is.
What I love about The Rock: he’s only got, like, three facial expressions and I don’t even care - I know he’s gonna make it worth it to watch him anyway! :D
Edit: a word
My favourite is Smoulder. Which is yours?
The classic "who just farted? "
vine boom sound effect
Lol he just wanted to spend a year in Hawai’i.
Michael!
I wonder if he also loves jungle music.
We got fun and games.
There’s a lot of rocks in jungles
It’s a multiverse.
It’s not a very diverse multiverse.
Simultiverse
Shirtiverse. You can imagine the dimensions clashing crossover where they team up.
So you’re The Rock in the grey-green t-shirt.
Ah you’re The Rock in the short-sleeved grey-green shirt.
Let’s swap tops to confuse our enemies!
I’m imagining End Game final battle but every protag is just The Rock with the similar outfit, exact expression, and exact pose
That’s hilarious.
TBF that’s the only collared shirt that fits him.
There is only one rock movie, it just has a lot of breaks between arcs.
Carla was the prom queen!
You refer to the RCU (Rock Cinematic Universe).
My favourite was Tsunkatse. That was so weird
Jabroni Stark
Obviously top left is a different movie, he’s got a different shirt on. The jury’s out on the other three though…
NGL the new Jumanji movies are way better than they have any right to be.
They are good but not iconic like the OG
Yeah, but I often wonder if this has more to do with the original coming out during my childhood?
Nah, it’s probably Robin Williams that makes the OG so good.
This is the answer right here.
Robin Williams was amazing. The range of emotions just can’t be topped. He was the most believable actor of all time.
A drop of water in a desert of cash-grab remakes that are significantly worse than the originals because everyone in production knows it’s a cash grab and has no creative input other than pumping another one out.
The new Jumanji movies aren’t really a remake, more a reimagining. Really pretty much the only thing kept from the original source material (book or movie) is “jungle game called Jumanji that becomes real”.
I have never seen a movie with this guy and I plan to keep it that way.
You mean you’ve never seen a movie with Dwayne The Rock motherfucking Johnson. Have you seen Moana?
He’s apparently completely shameless in promoting himself or the numerous products he shills for but he’s a very charismatic guy and his movies aren’t horrible for what they are.
I’m old enough to remember The People’s Elbow and that eyebrow so it’s fun seeing him doing other things and finding more success.
Honestly that men’s grooming stuff he shills isn’t bad.
I recognize the characters in the poster. I don’t know if I saw it or not because that came out at a time when I was suffering crippling depression and I was self-medicated pretty much 24/7. Let’s say I might have seen a movie with The Rock and didn’t know it at the time.
The Rundown is actually pretty good.
Walken is in it.
You should see a movie with this guy
He always goes to the movies with some guy
You should see a movie with this guy.
You can probably handle “The Other Guys”
Some of them are pretty bad, but some are okay.
No like timeless classics to go on the list with ‘blade runner’ and ‘Casablanca’, watch if you want to watch something movies.
Hollywood is so pitifully lacking any shred of risk taking or creativity.
But the former wrestler The Rock is a totally versatile and talented actor tho! /s
People write roles for him to be that way
People aren’t paying for him to be someone else
Nothing about his acting ability
I ain’t paying shit to see a brick wall make funny faces but y’all do you, I just don’t get it. Moana is the only movie I can think of that his lack of acting ability wasn’t distracting to me. There are plenty of people I like as people but who can’t act and I wouldn’t pay to see them … Try
People aren’t paying for him to be someone else
I was talking about producers
Dune 2 sticks out like a lighthouse in a sea of mediocrity. One of the greatest, and boldest movies I have ever seen.
You mean the third adaptation of a very popular book? Not exactly wildly original.
Still a great movie though.
Bold? Nah
Because adapting a book that is considered unadaptable isn’t bold
This version of it is by far the best and really does the book justice, but “bold” is not a word I would use to describe the third adaptation of the same classic piece of literature.
How is it bold?
I think he meant to say baldest instead of boldest.
Money does that. The more it costs - the more safe it has to be.
Watch Poor Things if you want risk taking and creativity. It was weird in the best of ways, imo.
The Lighthouse, Barbie, Oppenheimer, Infinity Pool, Beau is Afraid, the animated Spiderverse Movies, Jordan Peele’s movies, Talk to Me, and definitely more I haven’t seen.
There’s risk taking and creativity, but they’re much harder to find because they don’t get the advertising budget of the standard boring action-adventure bull crap.
Add “The Northman” to this list. It’s amazing and Alexander Skarsgard is fantastic.
Now I’m just imagining Dwayne Johnson asking if he can bring his own jungle jacket.
Jungle wardrobe full of remarkably similar outfits. Hundreds of them.
Thumb, thumb, thumb and thumb. That’s all I got from these photos.
