Yup referring to the tweet. Cats are assuming Rock's agent is missing but Rock knows what types of roles he wants to do and what he doesn't want to do. Just like Batista
With Skyscraper flopping, does The Rock need to change his gameplan?

Yup. Very rarely does he get into bed with someone without having a big say in what goes on behind the scenes.

His role in Southland Tales can be labeled drama acting. Despite some good acting from him, that movie is a clusterfukk of a story.

I was just about to say as I was reading. The only films that were a home run are the ones with other people in em...

Nah I keep saying Rock needs to cast Stone Cold as a villain in one of his films. Rock would have a hit right away cuz wrestling fans and nostalgia fans would eat that shyt up.
Dave out here
And he's made it known he wants the lead in Gears Of War
That's my action movie star.
So we gonna just conveniently ignore Hotel Artemis flopping and the 20 or so straight to Red Box movies that Dave has been putting out on the regular since he became an actor?
Like I posted in the Box Office Tracking thread, The Rock's box office hits and misses really make no kinda sense:
I have always found the Rock's box office performance in movies where he is the above the title star to be odd and hard to predict.
Look at the movies where The Rock was the de facto star of the show and try to figure out why some were more successful than others:
Think he does better when he is part of an ensemble or has a comedy partner to bounce off of? Well explain why Baywatch was such a disappointment when it followed that formula.
Skyscraper is looking like it will perform middling at the box office yet San Andreas was also a disaster movie where The Rock was running around trying to save his family from whatever disaster was going on and it was a massive hit.
Planet 51 was an animated movie with the Rock as the lead voice actor and it flopped...Moana was an animated movie with the Rock as lead actor and it was a huge hit. Of course that most likely had more to do with Moana being a Pixar movie.
The Rock stars in a remake of a beloved kids movie and the results couldn't be more different: Race to With Mountain struggled at the box office while Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was insanely successful.
The Rock stars in a movie based on a video game and you get a mega-flop like Doom on one hand and a hit like Rampage on the other.
The only thing consistent about him is that when he comes on board an already established property and becomes the star of it the movie makes bank as evidenced by how successful Journey 2 and GI Joe Retaliation were.
Southland Tales, Pain & Gain, Snitch and Faster were all dramatic roles to differing degrees.

Rock not playing 3rd or 4th fiddle to a racc00n and/or a tree voiced by Vin in Guardians
Rock not playing Jaws 2.0 with no lines for 007
Rock not getting killed by Goslin in the first 10 minutes in 2049
If Rock wants to be Kratos, he will be Kratos
So they looking for the Rock to be in a Manchester By The Sea type of drama?
I really don't know why that would be anyone's desire.
