Wow, a real stretch for this fag. He keeps showing his incredible range.

Some ex-wrestler made a movie about garage-band from Chicago?
What the Hell makes that a "highly rated" film?

Good grief, Hollywood cannot think.

>>214193769
They said the same thing about Sandler in Uncut Gems, but it wasn't long before he was making retard movies again

Is he singing 1979?

I liked the safdies when they were a team but i watched The Curse and it was absolutely terrible.
Plus i don't care about sports in any way so i'll skip this.

If i did wanna learn about this guy i'll just watch the 2002 documentary "The Smashing Machine".

>>214193769

this is the most astroturfed, forced and corpo shit i've ever seen. you got to be actually retarded to think this movie was at any point a genuine project. it's only existence is to revitalize dwayne johnsons career. he literally saw uncut gems and basically seems to have just asked the safdie bros to do the same treatment but with him. and it's still the same 'good guy' shit all over again. it looks goofy and fuck him.

/tv/ poojeets hate anything related to The Rick because their 75 IQs think he killed the Syderverse when it was already dead in the water. Of course they’ll shit all over this movie well past the point anyone cares anymore

>ugly loser
There’s your first problem. If you see yourself as less then, how can you expect a female to do otherwise? Go up to them, don’t expect them to come to you. As far as the lack of self confidence, fake it until you make it and don’t take rejection as an arrow to the heart. Attack and move on.

>>214193769
This is basically The Curse the film, so I'm excited.
>>
>>214197258
That they made a movie about ping pong starring Kevin O'Leary and Tyler the Creator is insane to me
>>
>>214198783
How do you retards not know how RT works by now? The percentage is not a rating system.
The movie is sitting at a 75 on Metacritic, nothing to write home about. That's a website worth nothing its score.

You do realize that it also played overseas and is still running in Europe? And it's closing in on $100 million with Italy debuting next week. 5* production budget is not a flop.

However Eddington did flop.

The whole 2000 Pride Grand Prix was kino, so many great storylines. There was an excellent retelling about it years ago:
https://www.sherdog.com/news/articles/1/Pride-and-Glory-25240

> Mezger getting screwed in the Saku fight
> Saku vs Royce
> Fujita beating the much more skilled Kerr through sheer willpower
> Coleman winning the thing as a total afterthought entrant.
> The world's most brutal N/S knees on Igor
> The Dole Banana

The only way to make an Andre the Giant movie would be using mocap suits and CG like they did for Thanos. Physically, there's no one who could play him.
>>
>>214197258
this movie looks gay as hell

I hope he wins Best Actor, or at least gets nominated for it. the seethe that's picking up already when we're like half a year away from even the nominations is hilarious, and the edits of Bautista screaming like a retard in all his movies in response to a potential Oscar win (or at least a nomination) for the rock, all while the rock is running the most tryhard disingenuous faux-sincere campaign ever, will be equally hilarious.

If people knew how dysfunctional the world really was theyd all have a lot more confidence. Experience is the cure.

I hated the Curse too, it's such a kid rich circle jerk. Do anons really want a future where the Safdies are separately releasing two big movies annually, producing a bunch of shit, and being promoted like le edgiest Spielberg-seses? They also love Israel just like that Brutalist dumbass.
>>
>>214197079
The Rock personally dumbed down America more than any actor while somehow making two dozen action films that are all shittier than most Bmovie action hits in the 80s. He had unmatched opportunity to make based R rated action movies, after he fucked up Doom. Instead he made Tooth Fairy as a humiliation ritual.

Does Josh celebrate Christmas? Perfect time to release his Trotsky screwball subversive comedy, "south park bigger longer uncut meets uncut gems," according to nytimes critic lenny jacob jeffrey goldmanepstein.
