The trailer looks atrocious. And I'm guessing that guy must be a big star in Latin America, because they present him like he's some major star.

1) He is. He is mostly remembered from this comedy/sketch show he had on prime time on mexican TV for ages and his Familia Peluche TV show. So a lot of mexicans on the US probably like him a lot and I guess they are expecting them to flock the theaters just to see him.

2) He did brown face on an Adam Sandler's movie (the guy is actually mexican white-ish). And it seems they are trying to make him look browner in the poster than he is just to show how latino he is. So it irks me a bit.

3) He stole original jokes and characters from fellow comedians.

4) I actually don't like him that much. :v:

For some reason whenever I hear about this movie I keep thinking it's a Captain Ron remake.

Do you even need to market The Rock?

I mean, I don't know if you need to market The Rock but I'd imagine they were hoping for more than the $35 million opening it's tracking for.

I don't care for this sort of movie, but I applaud that poster. The only thing (thankfully) keeping it from peak pulp perfection is a sultry dame hanging off of him.

drat right. I even saw Snitch in the theater!

It is a movie that feels more exciting than it really is because I keep interchanging it with The Counselor, which came out the same year. It also deals with drug trafficking but it was a bit... grittier.

Oh god, that's where I know that guy from. :cripes: My girlfriend is from Zacatecas and showed me Familia P. Luche when she noticed it was on Netflix, and we both agreed it might be one of the actual worst shows we've ever seen in any language. It's just painfully unfunny.

Yeah, once upon a time when I was a dumb teenager I thought he was nice, once I grew up I realized it was all crap. Also the only character he knows to do, is "idiot with high-pitched voice". I haven't seen his Hollywood movies so I dunno if someone told him not to do that.

It's honestly not even that, like, if that was the worst thing about Familia P. Luche I'd be frankly happy with it. The episode we watched was basically a constant string of horrifying domestic abuse jokes.

oh poo poo i dont have plans. imma call up an old friend and hang out and not watch a movie that makes a mockery of the Rampage canon. i very much doubt the gorilla will reach through a window and grab a lamp and get electrified. also all the animals should be mutated humans. omg also smashing a building and then when it starts to collapse you could make it by jumping to another one

it was a good game & the movie is not what the game is. it might be good but the rock is sadly becoming a bit of a cliche imo (good for him making money ofc)

In order to get fat for this movie Jared Leto combined microwaved ice cream, soy sauce, and olive oil and drank it mixed together every day instead of just eating unhealthy food because he's a gross loving weirdo.

At least nobody saw it so he did it all for nothing.

the first Rampage is bad. World Tour and the games that built off it are fun as gently caress, because the tech finally caught up with the idea they had.

The Rock will still have the bigger bust. This was still true when he co-starred with Alexandra Daddario in San Andreas and Baywatch.

It’s interesting that Leto only got the “physical transformation” aspect of method acting, because he’ll drop dead from this kind of poo poo long before he’s considered the next DeNiro or even Bale.

To be fair, he's also got the "be an insufferable rear end in a top hat who interferes with his cast mates' methods" aspect of the common misinterpretation of Chekov's method.
