okay fagit
He's an actor, all he cares about is his reputation in the public eye. He's got enough money to retire for multiple lives, why would he care about earning more? He's desperate for redemption in the public's opinion since he keeps playing the same blank slate roles in whatever movie he can shove himself in
he made his bones as a wrestler and he's one of the most popular wrestlers of all time. His returns are ALWAYS a hit and it's easy fan service. I bet WWE paid a pretty penny for him to show up.
>I bet WWE paid a pretty penny for him to show up.
Compared to? A movie deal? How much are Rastlin' fags actually paid?
Rumor has it Vince had paid over a million bucks for single appearance. Not bad for a half-hour's work.
merger money is unreal
I wouldnt be surprised as he also has a sneaker deal with the UFC. I wouldnt be surprised as now they are 1 company they utilise the Rock a lot more to encourage crossover fans
My point isn't about the money, but that the WWE wants him to appear more than he wants to appear; ie. they came to him.
if you make $800M primarily through acting, you're successful. Simple as.
>if you make $800M primarily through acting, you're successful. Simple as.
the only movies I remember him from are the scorpion king/mummy 2 and the jungle movie
The Rundown is his one kino. The Jumanji movies are actually decent but that has nothing to do with him.
I repeat: if you make $800M primarily from acting, you're successful. Simple as.
The fact that he made that money from stupid buddy comedies and shitty action movies is irrelevant.
Past about 200-300 million, it becomes less about money and more about legacy. Remember, most actors would qualify for narcissistic personality disorder.
It’s only a disorder if you’re poor. That goes for a lot of things.
But he a mid actor and will have no legacy
Who cares? 99% of people won’t have careers with legacies nor will they makes tens let alone hundreds of millions.
>no legacy
Which modern actor will have a legacy? Most will be forgotten within a few years max.
>He a mid
Hang yourself, wigger
His money is from his tequila company. Doesn't mean he has a flourishing career in entertainment.
for a couple of years, he was the highest paid actor in the world. Keep coping.
Embarrassing retard
Showing up once does not a retvrn make
He does this all the time has a catchphrase for it and everything
Face it dude likes it
All he has to do is make one good movie.
Surely someone can write a movie for him that isnt complete ass
He's made 3 good movies
>Welcome to the Jungle(2003)
>Walking Tall(2004)
>Pain & Gain (2013)
He said good movies
You're right i posted kino
>Welcome to the Jungle(2003)
Good, fresh comedy adventure but The Rock isn't in it, it's Van Damme
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rundown
jumanjis were good
get help, those are literally the worst movies created by mankind
filtered
Mick Foley had nothing to do with those movies.
Only the first one of the two, the sequel with that annoying chink is horrible.
Doom
No. Just, no.
Never seen any of them, and I never will.
The Rundown is pure, unadulterated kineaux.
I like Faster even though it's pretty dumb
Nobody saw that but me and you.
You're gonna have to narrow it down a bit more
The top right is Rampage. I think bottom left is Jungle Cruise.
>dumb meathead isn't doing Shakespeare
Shocking
Literally couldn't get me to watch any of that shit if you paid me. Arnie, Stallone, Van Damme, all those 70/80/90s stars had memorable films that made them household names. Meanwhile the Rock can't even make one. Pathetic.
How 'bout black adam, his magnum opus?
Get real. Capeshit will never be kino.
The Game Plan
Him and cena are both back for a stint cause hollywood is shut down.
Next week:bluetista
Wrestling is fake, how is this not considered scabbery?
>Wrestling is fake, how is this not considered scabbery?
The storylines are scripted, but the athletism and physicality is real. There are no weak wrestlers.
>There are no weak wrestlers.
theres the entirety of AEW
It's sports entertainment. You don't see the UFC or NFL on strike.
goddamn rogan is fat as fuck.
That’s not Rogan you dumb fuck. It’s James Gandolfini
>That’s not Rogan you dumb fuck. It’s James Gandolfini
fair enough, I can't tell thumb looking motherfuckers apart.
Let me dropkick you through a wall and then you tell me it's fake.
more like let you pretend to dropkick me while i leap backwards through a gimmick'd wall as hard as i can. lmfao
you should have gone with a real example, like let me lay down on a ladder and you jump from 25 feet in the air above me and gimme a leg drop and call it fake.
go fuck your sister wyatt
I don't think VInce's boys are in the guild
This. Wrestling writers are not part of the Screen Writers Guild, so they aren’t on strike.
Because wrestling isn’t associated with SAG
Covid was fake, what did you do about that? o
It's fun.
ITS REAL TO ME DAMMIT
whats next, a historical tragedy was faked too?
>Nooooop it's not FAKE! It's SCRIPTED! It's athletic and the wrestlers work really hard!
Give it a fucking break. Guaranteed 10+ replies every thread all saying the same exact shit, honestly makes me feel embarrassed as a wrestling fan, like other fans don't have the slightest capacity for original thought and can only speak in popular idioms. When did Cinemaphile devolve into YouTube comments?
Cinemaphile is literally plebbit lite now, especially since the plebbit mod fiasco this year the truly principled plebbitors left the site for more anonymous pastures. Cinemaphile isnt Cinemaphile and hasnt been since 2016.
>WWE HAS CROSSED THE PICKET LINE
>ITS TIME TO INFLATE THE RAT
Is the entire audience in wrestling these days completely paid actors / holograms? The enthusiasm just feels so fake.
I won't watch anything with the Rock. I'm tired of seeing him, simple as.
Mogged by Cena's return, KWAB
lmao Cenas pop wants even close.l, he's been back like 3 times this year.
god damn his head looks like an egg
body double? holy fuck he looks old. black do crack. hogan looks better than him and like 30 years older.
He's 51
Hogan does not look better, not even in his prime and rock stopped being black 20 years ago.
rock bros it do be litty
DO YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN
HA
Yeah, roids
name 1 wrestler that wasnt roided
Donald.
probably the fat ones like Mark Henry and Kevin Owens
Kevin Federline
I hate him as an actor, but once I hear IF YA SMELL I forget all about the 50 awful movies he's done
best wrestler from the best era
They'll never have a one-two punch like Rock and Austin ever again.
I personally preferred when they had sperate storylines
Never gets old
HOLY FUARK!
shit was so cash
Pavlovian responsde to glass shattering noises.
>wrestler

What the fuck happened to wrestling?

?feature=shared&t=56
500 dollar shirt rock is peak rock
where can i find one of these two dollar sluts tonight rock?
I miss the wwf I really do
damn that POP
Vince realized he makes more money aiming the product at children then teens/20 something so all the edgy crap that made wrestling fun during the attitude era went out the window. So crowds are more like what you will see at a harlem globetrotter game then the wrestling shows of old.
>So crowds are more like what you will see at a harlem globetrotter game then the wrestling shows of old
so less smelly neckbeards which is good thing
No, there's still a fuck ton of smelly neckbeards. Just they're the faggy redditor kind and not the angry manbaby kind that know what they want and would throw a shitfit if they tried to get rid of tits and ass in the good ol days of wrestling.
smelly neckbeards are never a good thing
It's not just the edgy crap, it's the production value of the show itself.
>guy walks behind rock, filming him on a phone
wtf
Cena won
>liberal biden voter and kamalla harris supporter
more like the crock
At this point why hasn't anyone just created a wrestling league made entirely of fucking stuntmen? Where'd jumping off of hell in a cell go?
>Where'd jumping off of hell in a cell go?
Don't think vince or whoever is in charge can now afford the insurance.
They are never include healthcare in their contract
Wrestlers are literally carnies. It’s weird how that culture is still very much alive despite the state of the liberal world now. Wrestlers live in this weird cult like culture
It's because pro wrestling is just that irrelevant. They can get away with anything and no one cares.
Pro wrestling isnt irrelevant, its still the highest drawing weekly event on tv sans the major sports. Its justvthe audience is wholly unique and doesnt interact with normal media. They have their own books, movies, music, etc. There is quite literally a "Wrestle-core" genre for everything. Its an independent economy that doesnt care about cancellings.
>made of stuntman
Who do you think becomes stuntmen? Retired pro wrestlers. Also heck in a kek is once a year, its not gone, you just dont watch.
Hell in a Cell became soulless when they made it a PPV.
What do you know about soulless? You never watch. Youve missed some of the most soulful arcs of wrestling.
They will never make crazy triple threat like dudleyz vs hardys vs edge & christian anymore
he's old man we're all just hurtling towards death huh that sucks
What bad press
I take great pleasure in having zero fucking idea as to what you're talking about
This dude was supposed to be the next Schwarzenegger
Absolutely no fucking chance. It's like saying Statham was meant to be the next Stallone. The era of plain action is long gone.
Statham at least has Crank, Lock, Stock, Snatch, Transporter.
I was gonna make a joke about how Statham's a schlock actor but I honestly don't think think I've ever seen a movie with the rock in it while I've seen half of Statham's career.
>Statham is the next Stallone
Said who? I love Statham but the dude can't act and Stallone had his first lead role in a film with freaking Rocky. A movie where he got nominated an oscar for best actor and won an oscar for best film of 77' that HE WROTE. The two aren't even anywhere close to comparison.
Isn't Jason Statham just Euro Bruce Willis with a dash of Van Damme?
this is your final warning... leave the billionaire actor alone...
the ravages of time have taken their toll on him
he looks like Jensen in that picture
>im ready to settle down with you, WWE...
🙂
It’s obvious he came back to try to capitalize on the merger popularity.
/tv/, you know whose board this is, with EVVVRYBODY sayin...
L!
A!
KNIGHT!
YEEAAAHHH!!
YEAH
MORE LIKE THE PEBBLE LMAO
Is taker STILL fighting? Dude is already old af
nah takers gone
No, he's retired now thankfully. There's no one left from that era anymore.
Sting is still kickin at AEW
No he designs car headlights for Peugeot now.
Christian, Billy Gunn, stink and Jerichud
>pops a 2+ milly rating
Jealous, tranny?
Reminder that Kevin Nash was raped and gaped by a pack of black gentlemen in the sweltering summer of 1992.
No fucking way.
so Batista is definitely returning right?
I cannot stand the rock
God I miss the WCW.
Everytime without fail. Rock is a has been.
bad press?
>gets mogged by the natty king
dwayne absolutely shocked at the bulbousnous of sticky ricky
Lmao at the fucking pebble
Lmaoing at the guy worth more than 3 quarters of a BILLION dollars that is known literally world wide for either wrestling or his movies.
>have fun with that you stupid sonofabitch
t.
He’s 5’10” maybe less.
isn't he maori?
Maori x black to be precise
only gambians are tall, the rest are below 5'9
He's 6'5"
Is pulling facts out of your ass a normal thing for you?
>believing hollywood listed heights
lol. He absolutely is not 6'5. 6'2 max.
>be ridiculously overpaid glorified court jesters
>make more money in one year than most will ever earn in a lifetime
>have enough money to live ten lifetimes
>still pull this shit
KWAB
Lol. Not reading his bio from Miami U
and early wrestling. He's 6'5"
>natty
Mark born every minute. Liver King was "natty" too.
>rick rude at home
>natty
He's going to ACKNOWLEDGE the Tribal Chief
BALEEB DAT
Joe Biden confirms Dwayne Johnson is black. Get your Samoan accusations out of here.
Why are they pushing this Theory guy?
At least Roman Reigns looks like discount Aquaman
Say what you will about wrestling, but The Rock returning is a massive step down for him, it's not something he wants to have on resume after Hollywood. It's like Hogan after his horrendous movie run
mid life crisis
HEY DUHWAYYYYYNE
SURPASSING ARNIE YET?
>faltering career
he's just got nothing to do during the strike
>asks people to help maui residents
>this makes him a monster
I wish we were still allowed to use the word retarded because it is the most appropriate one for this world we live in.
When will the racially unambiguous non threatening male leads die off? Rock, Oscar Issac, etc
still tony
