He needs to start making R rated movies if he wants to be in the conversation with stallone, arnold ect.

I get the desire to see the Rock expand, but if he’s knocking down $20 million + a film, what’s the point? He’s never going to be an Oscar contender and R-rated films tend not to be high grossers. What if anything does he really gain by doing that?

he came a long way. from raising the ppl's eyebrow to #1 at the box office:wow:

Speaking of Stallone. He took some shots at the Rock on IG. He took a pic of himself working out and said something about how these celebs are always complaining about how early they wake up to work out, he doesn't complain because it's a privilege.

is your shoulder hurting from that long reach?

the rock never complains in his workout videos.

Don't be slow. It was a shot at the Rock.
I follow both on IG and Rock was the first one I thought of when I saw that. Rock does do a lot of humble brags about the sacrifices he makes. Would love to see those two co-star in something.

i feel like nothing he's ever made is going to be relevant in 15-20 years :yeshrug:
The cash will be relevant :yeshrug: The Rock isn't Denzel...not even Will Smith as far as acting talent imo....he's over achieving (thanks to his likable personality and stans) and is milking this shyt for all it's worth like his homie Kevin Hart

It's crazy to me how far The Rock has came. I remember this nikka had me singing alone with The Rock & watching the great one drop peoples elbows on foo's. To damn near generating a billion dollar profit for Hollywood. ( Even though His last movie was shyt )feels like proud prude dad watching His only Son that made it! :mjcry:

The great one a true inspiration for a nikka.:wow:

:salute:To The great one!

If ya smell........









You know the rest.:myman:

the movies he’s been doing are just too plain and safe. Take a chance Dwayne, make some violent R movie with a young director who has something to prove.
Terminator, Rambo and Rocky were all unknown unhyped movies initially. Die hard also had a lot of problems during filming
Well if we are being real those movies were actually those guys breakout roles ...maybe not Rambo but it helped turn Stallone into an actual action star
