So why does /tv/ hate Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson?
>>
He looks like an egg with great teeth.

And, he's way buffer than me.
>>
He's pretty based desu
>>
>>70778675
Is he actually box office gold?
>>
For the same reason they hate Tom Cruise: he plays the same character in every one of his movies.
>>
Charismatic big handsome mulatto, I like him in stuff
>>
>>70778675
Literally where did you get that idea from?
>>
>>70778675
Unvalidated assertion. You first have to prove they do, before you can ask "why".
>>
>>70778675
>So why does /tv/ hate Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson?
I don't
>>
>>70779259
he's not a mulatto
>>
I love him. I think he's generally the best part of whatever movie he's in. Unfortunately some of that is bad movies. A worthy addition to the Fast and Furious franchise and they should make that Luke Hobbs solo movie.
>>
I have literally never seen a single movie he was in (except GoT but that's not a movie)
>>
>>70778675
I don't think they do. He's like your sister's jock boyfriend who you feel like you should hate but turns out to be a pretty cool guy underneath and you still bust his balls a little bit.
>>
>>70778675
actually its The "Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson" Rock
>>
>>70779311
His dad is a black Canadian wrestler.
>>
>>70778675
The Rock is based as fuck, you don't know what the shit you're talking about.
>>
>>70778800
>>70779954
>based
Why? because you watched him playfight when you were a kid?
>>
I like you, Dwayne.
>>
>>70778675
The scorpion king was a goat movie though.
>>
>>70779999
What's the difference between play fighting and shooting a million free throws per game (a la Michael Jordan) and having the rules of a sport changed so that you can perform more impressive feats of athleticism?

The guy still has to get out there build up his body and do those moves, never watched wrestling but I never understood the angst towards it
>>
>>70778675
I prefer Stone cold steve austin
>>
>>70779999
He's basically the newer, bigger Vin Diesel

He's One of Us™
>>
>>70779470
He's not in GoT, so you never seen him.
>>
>>70779999
Apart from seeming fucking awesome when we were kids, he's also a good role-model and a good person

He's kind, generous, driven and clearly cares about his fans

No wonder shitters on 4chan don't like him, they'll never achieve like he has
>>
>>70779999
>Entertainer is really good at his job of entertaining, enough to influence youthful fans to have further interest in his entertainment capabilities as adults.
Really makes you think

I like him, he's pretty cool when I was a kid.

DO YOU SMELL WHAT'S COOKING
>>
>>70779245

Horseshit. Doom, Pain and Gain, Southland Tales, all totally different characters.

Cruise as well. Collateral, Magnolia, Tropic Thunder.

You're an idiot.
>>
>>70778675
He's one of Hollywood's biggest phony nice guys, his facade is a pretty good one too, but you can see him snap if you look around.
>>
>>70779941
His mom is Samoan though
>>
He is Brown like a turd.
>>
>>70778675
Is this bait? I have never seen him hated on here and I spend an autistic amount of time on this board
>>
>>70778675

>implying The Rock isnt the definition of kino.

Everything he does is gold.
>>
>>70781430
This.

All I ever hear is people saying he's the new Arnie, and Arnie is beloved above all.
>>
>>70781430
Seriously, this.

>>70779999
I long grew out of WWF by the time he was even on the scene: Hulk Hogan, Rick Flair, Macho Man, Andre The Giant, and the like were the stars when I was a kid. And I've generally always been a fan of The Rock through his film career, he's charismatic and comedic enough to be much more than the meathead his looks initially portray, and he often will help carry an otherwise shitty flick with his charisma.

>>70778675
If there is anything to dislike about him, it's that he never lived up to the idea of being the next Arnold, but as cinema has changed that wasn't going to happen anyway.
>>
>>70781130
Everyone has a bit of douchebag in them somewhere.
>>
Born in the wrong time to be an action super star. It's a pity, really. He's the closest thing you have to the old school action star that is not in his fifties+..yet.
>>
>>70778675
He's a manlet.
>>
>>70778675
People say he's charismatic but I don't really see it. He's cool though.

He's not doing as well in his acting that he could be.
>>
>>70779121
he was the highest grossing actor of 2015 I believe
>>
what i never understood is
he's half black and half Samoan

in most of his movies his kids are blonde haired blue eyes

wtf?
>>
>IF YOU SMELLLLLLLLLL

What did he mean by this?
>>
>>70782230
it doesnt matter what the rock meant by this

The few who do dislike him do so because he tries (and sometimes succeeds) to be the same kind of 80s action hero those few are nostalgic about, only now they're older and through him forced to realize that the shallow action shit he's in is no more shallow than the Ahnold flicks they're nostalgic about, even though they'd like to pretend otherwise.
>>
>>70779999
Because the Rock is the kind of dude who will see fans when he drives past, stop and hang out with them simply because he wants to
>>
>>70780135
One of them only pretends to be real and has a significant and retarded fanbase that actually thinks it is.
>>
He's not a particularly good actor but he got dat charisma and he seems like a good guy.

I don't see how anybody but a jelly prick could hate on him.
>>
>>70785708

Based on what? His public appearances?

I don't hate him

Ballers Season 2 July 17th yess
>>
>>70778675
I am completely indifferent toward him because he has no charisma, doesn't look good, his muscles are fueled by roids and not "le pain no gain" and is in general a guy who never was in anything worthwhile
>>
Because he's a not-even-part-timer who buries everyone he works with because of his success 17 years ago and normie appeal.

is this film actually good?

I've heard positive things

if not, whats some essential Rockcore apart from Pain & Gain?
>>
>>70778675
I don't hate him. I just get frustrated by the roles he chooses. Way to many shitty family friendly movies dillute the handful of really good action oriented roles.

Look at the rundown, hes a great leading man and even had arnie hand him the keys for hollywoods next big action star in camera.

I wonder if there wasn't some shit deal with wwf that tied his hands.
>>
>>70793186
Its fucking great. Go watch it now. Based walken, prime rosario, and stiffler not being completely obnoxious.
>>
He's fine. Very likeable on screen. His scene was the highlight of the Reno 911 movie.
>>
I like him in Southland tales, Faster, and am going to love him in his new movie coming out.

I think Faster was one of his best roles cause he didn't talk much. But if he has to open his mouth a lot, the movie is going to be comedy-ish.

But man he got a 10/10 smile.
>>
>>70778675
I dont hate him I actually love gay people
>>
He's an asshole
>>
>>70778675
Nice guy, entertaining when he was a wrestler...hasn't been in one good film apart from the rundown
>>
>>70793445
Faster is underrated.

I work now work at my uncle's security firm. I've met a ton of celebrities. The Rock is by far the coolest one I've ever met. Seriously the most down to earth and genuine dude. The only other celebs that were as cool as him were Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Those dudes don't give a fuck.

>Getting worked by The Rock
at least Austin was honest with you to show you he did not give a fuck about your mark ass
>>
>>70794559
for such a successful and big guy (foryou) he seems pretty humble which is cool
>>
>>70794603

I know what you're saying but the dude legit spend about 30 mins chatting with us when he was the main fight the same night. I'm sure he could have been doing a bunch of other shit that night but he chose to spend his time with me and a bunch of my jack ass friends.
