The Rock is just a really smart businessman, he's not the anchor of any popular franchise. You could replace him in F&F and Jumanji without losing much box office
>he's not the anchor of any popular franchise. You could replace him in F&F and Jumanji without losing much box office
Nah hes proved time and time again people like him, people even went to watch his spin off Hobbs and Shaw. Which made more than The Batman, Fast 9. Just think about that.
In early 2000s he was so corny he was "good". Now he's just regular corny who gets high on his own farts. I think twitter really exposes a lot of these morons for the unlikable frauds they are.
>Fast and Furious only became a money-making hit when the Rock joined
imagine actually writing that and then that moron demanded they make solo spin offs and now the franchise is bombing >Jumanji hit a billion because of him as well
yeah I guess it's popular with third worlders like all of The Rocks movies
>Fast and Furious only became a money-making hit when the Rock joined

>I thought the rock was a box gold?
I don't think people like him as an actor. He's just the muscular, funny guy you occasionally see on TV.
I would have liked him to be the Schwarzy's successor but he chose a different path (the clown path). He can't be taken seriously but maybe Adam will change that.
His individual popularity is still tied to the public’s view of WWE. As much as he wants to escape it, he’s still just seen as The Rock. Not Dwayne Johnson
He seriously need a James Cameron/Paul Verhoeven figure if he want to change his image so bad. Considering the current film industry, that ain't happening.
>oh look it's yet ANOTHER DC superhero with a lighting bolt on their chest
The trailer was the blandest thing I've ever seen. There was nothing there that people haven't seen before. It felt like a Marvel trailer. It's a little known character IP with an uninspired bland trailer. NO SHIT IT'S HEADED FOR DISASTER
They won a golden lion with a capeshit movie, but WB was against that one too for some reason. Like they won the capeshit console wars against their will
The impression I got from the trailer was some super powerful guy with different set pieces to show and joke about how powerful he is. No conflict, no plot, no anything. Powerful guy.
Murican capeshit comics are dying as a medium anyway. MCU accidentally hit gold which prolonged comic industry sufferings for a while, but now movies are doing the same shit that killed comics, so eventually all capeshit movies start to bomb hard.
To a certain extent
But the serious answer? When your universe doesn't even have an active Superman or Batman how do you expect the audience to care about C-list characters like Black Adam?
And before anyone makes the Marvel comparison, people were introduced to this universe's Superman and Batman first. Whether you like/dislike their interpretations is irrelevant. They are part of the foundations, and you either build off that or watch the whole thing collapse and reboot.
Black Adam could be the greatest movie of all time but no one will care if DC can't get its main team's house in order first.
The Rock himself is not a draw. Nobody pays to go to the theater just to watch The Rock play himself. This movie is marketed entirely around him. Didnt work for The Scorpion King either. He needs to be surrounded by other, better actors
I have seen the older collage posted so many times and the images were very low resolution and unlabeled. I decided to make an updated and accurate one myself. Autism or not, I regret nothing.
All you did was literally show us how overrepresented red heads are in comics. Obviously a lot of it has to do with the way the colors were able to print decades ago but red heads are everywhere in comics, especially when you need a stereotypical "fiery" character. I hate when people post this image.
When you sign up with DC -> You're life can go from "litty" to "shitty" in 10 seconds. Doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a foot, winning is winning.
And DC is losing. Dead. Buried. The Rock is trying to meme-start DC's corpse but he's 9+ years too late. Why 9+ years? Cause that's the date Rock signed on as exec producer for Black Adam. Before Justice League. Before Shazam.
when the movie was announced, we all assumed he was going to have hair, the fact that he doesnt means clearly the rock gives zero shits about this movie and just wanted a big paycheck
>Black Black Adam >bald because Rock has to look exactly the same in all his movies just like that hack Jason Momoa. >doesn't have pointy ears >making a Black Adam film which to begin with which is random and not something anyone asked for >modern DC
gee I wonder why
>WB can only afford two wide releases for the rest of the year >Took a hit on all their 2020 and 2021 releases because the pandemic >Don’t Worry Darling looking to flop >now this looking to flop even harder
How much buyers remorse is Zaslev feeling right now?
I want to see more of a bald, 50 year old, completely hairless, roided out, broken down, blown-out waistline, dehybraded failed bodybuilder mystery meat kino
The Rock spoke against familia
Familia disowned him
Didn't the Scorpion King bomb already? Best to stick to the jungles he's used to
I thought the rock was a box gold?

he is
OP is probably baby hands still seething.
cringe only gays like the rock dude is box office poison once he gets involved with any franchise
Fast and Furious only became a money-making hit when the Rock joined. Jumanji hit a billion because of him as well
meanwhile all cavill films flopped
nobody cares about that moron.
>all cavill films flopped
But he was in Mission Impossible, can't bruise the Cruise
>can't bruise the Cruise
exactly
it was cruise movie, cavill was just random villain that people were happy got btfo by based cruise
>Fast and Furious only became a money-making hit when the Rock joined
imagine actually writing that and then that moron demanded they make solo spin offs and now the franchise is bombing
>Jumanji hit a billion because of him as well
yeah I guess it's popular with third worlders like all of The Rocks movies
F&F is salvagable after Fast X
All Kevin Hart and Jack Black
Wait the anon who makes endless jokes about Cavill's tiny hands is a die-hard Rock defender?
KEK
>I thought the rock was a box gold?

I would have liked him to be the Schwarzy's successor but he chose a different path (the clown path). He can't be taken seriously but maybe Adam will change that.
he has a lot of 400m dollar movies. the difference is they didn't spend 200m on those.
the only film I watched of his that was decent was Snitch
His individual popularity is still tied to the public’s view of WWE. As much as he wants to escape it, he’s still just seen as The Rock. Not Dwayne Johnson
He seriously need a James Cameron/Paul Verhoeven figure if he want to change his image so bad. Considering the current film industry, that ain't happening.
He was great in Pain and Gain, but now he insists on playing the same bland good guy character in every movie
Pain and gain is one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen
GOTTA GET BIG. GOTTA BE STRONG.
Yah the movie was only entertaining. gays acting like it's some pleb filter are WWE gays.
Mega filtered
Pain and gain is one of the best pleb filters I’ve ever seen
>he doesn't believe in fitness
This board's infatuation with Pain and Gain is perplexing. It is an awful fricking movie.
Pain and Gain was great movie. Unironically.
normie's Vin Diesel
You feel something every time Vin is on screen.
I feel confused. Confused as to what race Vin is.
American
We prefer the term "Amerimutt"
More Riddick kino when?
he doesn't know
>Fast x is the Riddick prequel
>Where do you go after space
>Why further into it.
He's way too old. If he started production now he'd be almost 60 by the time the movie came out.
Vin Diesel is the Kanye of cinema
Poopy-di scoop
Scoop-diddy-whoop
Whoop-di-scoop-di-poop
Poop-di-scoopty

Poop, poop

>Salute, mi familia.
Nothing but soul.
me on the left
we need to go back, bros
Never realized how much soul the original lineup had before they added Statham and the Rock
>Scorpion King bomb
if it did bomb it would not have 54 sequels
The rundown too. Which is still his best movie
>He's the next Schwarzenegger!
LMAO
Christ it was almost 20 years ago. I remember watching BBC's Talking Movies review it.
it's out?
no, it's not, I don't know what they base any of this on other than whatever they've been paid to hype up
>I don't know what they base any of this on
Social media hits. Youtube likes. General internet chatter discussing the movie, of which there is zero.
>oh look it's yet ANOTHER DC superhero with a lighting bolt on their chest
The trailer was the blandest thing I've ever seen. There was nothing there that people haven't seen before. It felt like a Marvel trailer. It's a little known character IP with an uninspired bland trailer. NO SHIT IT'S HEADED FOR DISASTER
It looked much more generic than even Marvel movies
Well yeah read the comics idiot, they’re gonna tie him in with Shazam hence why they dress the same
Oh so they're gonna tie it with that other capeshit movie who also bombed from that cinematic universe no one cares about
they're not, which is the dumbest part.
is there such a thing as TOO MUCH LITTY?
I’m up to my ankles in urine already.
I want him to run for president.
frick the rock. he doesn't even need to do capeshit. just doing it for attention.
Reminder, they wanted Black Adam to be one the main leaders of the DCEU going forward. WB can’t catch a break, their universe is finished
At this point it would legitimately be a surprise if WB did even one thing right. I have never seen a corporation take so many Ls. Ever.
They won a golden lion with a capeshit movie, but WB was against that one too for some reason. Like they won the capeshit console wars against their will
surely not written by the mouse
>black "boring white name"
who the frick came up with the name for this superhero? so fricking lame deadass
Otto Binder and CC Beck
>Adam
>white
Shalom my friend.
ive always liked the name and character, still not really that interested in seeing it til maybe next year
youre not gonna find a israelite who identifies as white in any universe
Adam is the name of the first man alive. That's kinda fricking cool.
It's a name. What kind of entertainment do you expect from a fricking name?
Rock trying to meme a superman vs black adam fight. Even though no superman fan wants it
he plays himself in every movie eventually its gonna lose steam
He's not molesting kids in movies how the frick is playing himself
He not black, and since when does he have huge milkers?
The impression I got from the trailer was some super powerful guy with different set pieces to show and joke about how powerful he is. No conflict, no plot, no anything. Powerful guy.
why doesnt WB realize that without snyder input, everything sucks. wonder woman was ghost directed by him, ww84 wasnt and look how that turned out.

shazam was better than snyder's shit thoug
The Rock himself is not a draw. Nobody pays to go to the theater just to watch The Rock play himself. This movie is marketed entirely around him. Didnt work for The Scorpion King either. He needs to be surrounded by other, better actors
I would NOT pay to watch The Rock's capeshit, probably wouldnt even bother with it on streaming services
They genocided another redhead
I’m imagining the kind of person who would have the time to research and make this image. Fascinating
I have seen the older collage posted so many times and the images were very low resolution and unlabeled. I decided to make an updated and accurate one myself. Autism or not, I regret nothing.
You did a good job, saved.
All you did was literally show us how overrepresented red heads are in comics. Obviously a lot of it has to do with the way the colors were able to print decades ago but red heads are everywhere in comics, especially when you need a stereotypical "fiery" character. I hate when people post this image.
Blackwashing is real
Black fragility is real
>I hate when people post this image.
I'm gonna start posting it then.
Don't spend too long or you'll forget to think about the kind of people who did this
I see no problem, irish are scum and Black folk as well.
Not enough promotion
When you sign up with DC -> You're life can go from "litty" to "shitty" in 10 seconds. Doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a foot, winning is winning.

>What happened?
Race swapped
The superhero bubble has burst.
And no one goes to theaters anymore.
this
they should have made this 6-7 years ago
lol
That shit is just cope from Hollywood failures. New top gun movie is now the 11th highest box office of all time, dispite not showing in china.
People have no problem going to see a movie if its not shit.
Since Christmas?
>no one goes to theaters anymore
Say that to my face homie
This. I went twice to see maverick on theaters. It was money well spent. I havent seen capeshit on theaters since the shitty endgame
based. I saw maverick in theatre as well. First time I've been in like 5 years.
I hear this movie was good and then I saw it and you know what? Everyone was right, this movie was really good.
people are just bored of cape shit
when the movie was announced, we all assumed he was going to have hair, the fact that he doesnt means clearly the rock gives zero shits about this movie and just wanted a big paycheck
ears, i WANT EARS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I thought The Rock was supposed to be a box office magnet?
DC can't make good movies and should stick to shows. They had something with Snyder but they blew it.
Rock was so much more likeable when he was only a wrestler, he’s too fake now. Back then he seemed like a guy just having fun
After a decade of family friendly roles, Rock can’t pull off anything mildly villainous.
Source?
Some shitty snl skit i think
The only thing about this film I am interested in is Brosnan as Doctor Fate. Yet, unfortunately they most likely will wiener-up the character.
what does litty mean
The Rock hasn't been cool since like 2002
Idk why normalgays like (liked?) him so much.
>Black Black Adam
>bald because Rock has to look exactly the same in all his movies just like that hack Jason Momoa.
>doesn't have pointy ears
>making a Black Adam film which to begin with which is random and not something anyone asked for
>modern DC
gee I wonder why
It's insane to me that they decided to do a Black Adam movie instead of fixing their core characters.
It's because The Joker was a huge success.
>Black Adam
>cast white actor
The trailer looked generic.
This is the only capeshit I'm looking forward to watching.
Marvel shitting themselves.
Terrychads... We won.
https://youtube.com/shorts/QNfzzev6J0M?feature=share
I'm surprised Brosnan is still acting
Snyderchads not taking the bait.
Hamandajohnsverse is ded
This looks so stupid it will be the third capeshit (besides the first Ironman and the Joker) I will watch
Black Adam is a phase 2 character. Not something you introduce to an audience when you can't even get phase 1 off the ground. WB are morons.
>even having black in the title is enough to kill a film
Racistbros... we won
what the frick is a black adam?
he's black because he's evil and he's adam because he's adam.
it's just his name shortened: blackagar adamgar
A black adam's apple
SHOUTOUT TO YOUR MOVIE BOMBING WHILST ENJOYING A NICE COLD ZOA™
>zoa, black adam's beverage of choice
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ROCK BROS
Hes like Arnold but without muscles and personality
Might be the first The Rock movie I’m a little hyped for.
>The Architect delivering people’s fate to them.
Kino.
>ywn have a Doctor Fate movie because Rock Adam will flop
no charisma
no talent
cant carry a movie
how the frick does anybody seriously watch this capeshit when the costumes always look so fricking goofy?
>WB can only afford two wide releases for the rest of the year
>Took a hit on all their 2020 and 2021 releases because the pandemic
>Don’t Worry Darling looking to flop
>now this looking to flop even harder
How much buyers remorse is Zaslev feeling right now?
>nonwhite lead in a non-comedy flick not explicitly about poopskins and/or poopskin identity
What were they thinking?
Why the frick is Black Adam even bald in the movie, The Rock had Teth Adam's hair like 10 years ago lol.
I want to see more of a bald, 50 year old, completely hairless, roided out, broken down, blown-out waistline, dehybraded failed bodybuilder mystery meat kino
The hip hop trailer didn't help
>Black Adam headed for Box Office Disaster
They couldn't possibly know that at this point. It's a month away.
couldn't they find a black actor to play black adam
this is not ok
The Rock is half black you moron
half black and half adam
the only way to save this movie is for henry to appear
I hope it does flop so that he doesn't get a sequel and is therefore cleated to run for President in 2024. That would be entertaining.
Don't worry bros
The popcorn sales will save this movie
Who the frick thought doing Black Adam without Shazam was a good idea?
