Whatever happened to The Rock?

lol, I haven't heard that name in ages. I think he manages his son in another league now.

. He actually has a movie coming out later this year called The Other Guys that is supposed to be an action/comedy/drama that stars Mark Wahlberg, Samuel L. Jackson (as the Rock's detective partner), Will Ferrell and Eva Mendes QUOTE]

Those people alone make me want to see that movie. And I don't even know what it's about yet.

Those movies sound awesome! I know he wants to do the kiddie movies for his own kids but he's obviously way better in action roles and comedy. Nice to see he's giving up the kid movies, at least for a little while.

I read a while ago that he was going to stop doing the kiddie movies and get back to doing the action movies. Some of his kiddie movies weren't bad though. The Game Plan was his best kiddie movie.

I read that he is also going to be Race Bannon in the new Jonny Quest movie. It's suppose to be due in 2011.

The Rundown is a pretty cool movie. That's the movie that helped make him a cool type of action star. He definitely should do more of that. Hell, even Walking Tall was cool but too short. I think it's really only 75 mins.

The Rundown was awesome indeed and I like Gridiron Gang. I only saw parts of Walking Tall but I heard it sucked.


Haven't seen any of his kid movies, though, and probably never will.

You know, Race to Witch Mountain had a lot of action and wasn't boring at all. The Game Plan was also pretty entetaining if not a bit schmaltzy. My wife likes these types of movies and we have to entertain kids too.

Walking Tall was pretty good. Not a classic or anything, but it was good. Gridiron Gang is prob my favorite of his movies though.

LH, you should watch The Game Plan. That was real good too. It's one of his kiddie movies but it was good.

 

[LadyHotrod]

Maybe I'll give them a try. I usually hate kiddie movies in general so I don't give any a chance but I'd bite my tongue for Dwayne in this case.

Like hell I'd watch the Tooth Fairy, though.

Oh yeah, Gridiron Gang is really good. It's not a kiddie movie at all. The only weird thing about it is the real Sean Porter was a heavy set big white dude. If you don't have kids then I can understand why it's harder to get into that type of deal.
