NGL the new Jumanji movies are way better than they have any right to be.
- A drop of water in a desert of cash-grab remakes that are significantly worse than the originals because everyone in production knows it's a cash grab and has no creative input other than pumping another one out.
  
  The new Jumanji movies aren't really a remake, more a reimagining. Really pretty much the only thing kept from the original source material (book or movie) is "jungle game called Jumanji that becomes real".
- They are good but not iconic like the OG
  
  Yeah, but I often wonder if this has more to do with the original coming out during my childhood?
  Nah, it's probably Robin Williams that makes the OG so good.
There is only one rock movie, it just has a lot of breaks between arcs.
- You refer to the RCU (Rock Cinematic Universe).
  
  Jabroni Stark
  
  My favourite was Tsunkatse. That was so weird
  
  rocket control unit?
- Carla was the prom queen!
Hollywood is so pitifully lacking any shred of risk taking or creativity.
- But the former wrestler The Rock is a totally versatile and talented actor tho! /s
  
  People write roles for him to be that way
  People aren’t paying for him to be someone else
  Nothing about his acting ability
  
  Haha so true! I only actually liked him in that movie with marky mark where he’s a coked out body builder
- Watch Poor Things if you want risk taking and creativity. It was weird in the best of ways, imo.
  The Lighthouse, Barbie, Oppenheimer, Infinity Pool, Beau is Afraid, the animated Spiderverse Movies, Jordan Peele's movies, Talk to Me, and definitely more I haven't seen.
  There's risk taking and creativity, but they're much harder to find because they don't get the advertising budget of the standard boring action-adventure bull crap.
  
  Add "The Northman" to this list. It's amazing and Alexander Skarsgard is fantastic.
  
  The Lighthouse was awesome. Love me some crazy Willem
- Dune 2 sticks out like a lighthouse in a sea of mediocrity. One of the greatest, and boldest movies I have ever seen.
  
  You mean the third adaptation of a very popular book? Not exactly wildly original.
  Still a great movie though.
  
  How is it bold?
  
  Bold? Nah
- Money does that. The more it costs - the more safe it has to be.
He’s a melee fighter, range is not his strong suit
- Yoooo this was good
- Michael!
It's a multiverse.
- It's not a very diverse multiverse.
  
  Simultiverse
- That's hilarious.
What I love about The Rock: he's only got, like, three facial expressions and I don't even care - I know he's gonna make it worth it to watch him anyway! :D
Edit: a word
- My favourite is Smoulder. Which is yours?
  
  The classic "who just farted? "
TBF that's the only collared shirt that fits him.
At least two of these are Jumanjis, right?
What are the other two?
- I would guess the rundown and walking tall. Both are actually decent
  
  One is probably the Disney River Boat movie.
  Decently entertaining for what it was.
- Journey to the center of the Earth and probably The Rundown one of the better movies The Rocks been in. Christopher Walkens the villain
Now I'm just imagining Dwayne Johnson asking if he can bring his own jungle jacket.
- Jungle wardrobe full of remarkably similar outfits. Hundreds of them.
Obviously top left is a different movie, he's got a different shirt on. The jury's out on the other three though...
If anything it proves how overpaid he truly is.
Thumb, thumb, thumb and thumb. That’s all I got from these photos.
There's a lot of rocks in jungles
Top left stands out though
I wonder if he also loves jungle music.
- We got fun and games.
- Incredible
I have never seen a movie with this guy and I plan to keep it that way.
- The Rundown is actually pretty good.
  Walken is in it.
- You mean you've never seen a movie with Dwayne The Rock motherfucking Johnson. Have you seen Moana?
  
  He's apparently completely shameless in promoting himself or the numerous products he shills for but he's a very charismatic guy and his movies aren't horrible for what they are.
  I'm old enough to remember The People's Elbow and that eyebrow so it's fun seeing him doing other things and finding more success.
  
  I recognize the characters in the poster. I don't know if I saw it or not because that came out at a time when I was suffering crippling depression and I was self-medicated pretty much 24/7. Let's say I might have seen a movie with The Rock and didn't know it at the time.
- You should see a movie with this guy
  
  He always goes to the movies with some guy
- Some of them are pretty bad, but some are okay.
  No like timeless classics to go on the list with 'blade runner' and 'Casablanca', watch if you want to watch something movies.
- You can probably handle "The Other Guys"
Lol he just wanted to spend a year in Hawai'i.
it doesnt matter....
- pocket full of cheese
