His version of DC had no future either but he was actually needlessly maligned by the powers that be, probably because they'd already signed a contract with Gunn and Safran. None of those two want to share duties with a roided megalomaniac.
His "smash the Black Adam and Superman action figures together" was unironically a better plan than what we've been seeing so far. There's no way it'd do Marvel peak numbers, but I think it'd be decently sustainable.
You know what, that's actually completely fair. I was one of those guys copping a squat and letting loose a big wet fast-food shit all over Black Adam's chest at the time, but god fricking damn, at least it was a movie. It was like you ate at mcdonalds, it was such basic b***h garbage that it was easy to criticize, but then The Flash comes out and it's like you went to burger king and got a fried rat on a bun. mcdonalds looks a lot more appealing in that light, huh?
It really is an insight into how fricked up celebrity as an asset really is, like he seems so nice but the minute we see him behind the wheel of something that seems bigger than himself he immediately makes it an extension of himself. I used to joke about how he should run for president, because frick it, right, the whole system is a joke, but now I fear what that kind of celebrity me-me-me-mindset would do in office. At least Trump was a largely uncharismatic goober, it was scary to see him have power, but at the end of the day he just wanted to b***h at people on twitter while taking pot roast-sized dumps at 4am. But if Dwayne became president, my god, I don't want to catastrophize but he might put his face on mount rushmore or something. He'd have that big dumb grin and declare that today was Dwayne Johnson day.
Not to self-reply, but I think the worst part of that eventuality would be if he actually did a lot of good while also being so self-obsessed. Like if he signed off on some infrastructure bill that did a lot of real good and it was called "The Rock Foundation" or something stupid like that and people couldn't help but clap for it, that might create a really toxic positive feedback loop.
Why the FRICK is Cinemaphile always talking about box office money now? Holy shit this is so dismal. I haven't been here in a few years and all you can talk about now is which movie made more money. God, what the frick happened. Please, all of you, all of you on this board, have a nice day.
This just means they should've kept the second ending for Flash where Cavill Superman was still around
They already fired Henry
Dwaynetty jobbed to The Batman. KWAB

Based Rock destroyed any chances for dceu movies to be successful and even kicked Cavill out the universe.
He is truly the greatest villain of DC
THE HIERARCHY OF POWER
IN THE DC UNIVERSE
IS ABOUT TO CHANGE
barely
>Kills Superman AND the Justice League
THE HIERARCHY OF POWER HAS CHANGED

He actually believes this gives him a better chance. That's how candy thieves think.

Dwayne was acting like a franchise creator on twitter when he's nothing but a roided fake sports athlete. He fricking thought he was the boss.
