He’s called “The Rock” because he has the acting talent and range of a rock.
Was much better before in The Rundown with Sean William Scott. One of my favs.
And his finishing move “The People’s Elbow” was a nod to his socialist roots, fighting in the jungles of Cuba
It all started with The Rundown. Before that, it was all desert, but I guess he didn’t like the sand.
“Seen any good movies recently?”
“Just watched one, but I can’t remember the title. It is starring Dwayne Johnson… with him in the jungle… actually it wasn’t all that good though.”
“Do you know how little you just narrowed that down?”
I do this with the Avatar movies, but it’s:
-
Avatar “Ferngully”
-
Avatar: The Way of Water “Ferngully”
-
Avatar: Fire and Ash “Ferngully”
I have a friend who does something similar; it goes:
-
Avatar “Dances with Wolves”
-
Avatar: The Way of Water “Dances with Wolves”
-
Avatar: Fire and Ash “Dances with Wolves”
-
And he is also wearing the same shirt in all of them
He certainly doesn’t like to be typecast.
I actually sat through The Smashing Machine recently because I heard they’d actually got him to act in it, like Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems. This was a complete lie, and it turned out they’d just put a wig on him.
