Neither of those movies were hits, though, and both of them are closer to offbeat, indie-feeling dark comedies than blockbusters. The argument made by this article isn’t that The Rock needs to appear in movies like Lady Bird or The Shape of Water (though I’m sure he would make tender love to that fish-person before…
I’ll give you Schwarzenegger, but the main difference with Willis seems to be the quality of scripts he’s getting. When he works on a Moonrise Kingdom or Glass, he’s still able to tap into the persona that made him an enjoyable presence to begin with. When he’s working on an Eastern European DTV production...not so…
That’s called a “movie star persona.” You might as well ask how many films Bruce Willis can star in playing a sarcastic blue-collar guy, or how many films Arnie could star in playing a charismatic killing machine, or how many films Tom Cruise could star in playing an intense weirdo.
But silly blockbusters can be critical favorites—nothing about the genre itself makes this difficult. Most of the F&F movies have a high Tomatometer, as do most of the Marvel films, Mission: Impossible films, John Wick films, etc, despite equal or greater amounts of silliness in those.
Of course, this neglects the fact that the first Jack Reacher is excellent.
Pain & Gain is actually one of Johnson’s more artsy, daring movies. But the contention is that he should make more films with directors like Michael Bay, and fewer with directors who feel like they should be shooting the behind-the-scenes documentary for a Michael Bay movie.
Also, the words “sex reveal party” conjures the image of like thirty people wearing trenchcoats with suspiciously-bare legs.
Huh. I was SURE it was Mandela! If only there were some phrase to describe when what should be a basic, widely-known memory turns out to be completely wrong like that.
She is taking advantage of the fact that her name is Imogen Poots.
The “Boogie and the Brow” Pelicans with Danny Green and LeBron James added to the team...actually seems like it could be a really good team?
I understand why the Toy Story series has not given us a Sid-like look at the room of a Barbie-obsessed little girl whose piles of plastic naked bodies resemble a children’s diorama of Salo: The 120 Days of Sodom, with the Barbies conditioned by the child’s play into having PTSD-infused romantic feelings for each…
Well, thank goodness they got rid of this filth! I always had to skip this movie in my rewatch and replace it with A Bug’s Life, in which nothing at all has aged poorly about the jokes or casting.
The next Toy Story movie will have a sex-trafficking subplot about the Barbies, and will include a PSA reminding little girls that any annoying younger brothers who undress the Barbies and make them kiss are “already infected by patriarchy” and “must be taken care of by any means necessary.”
Ertz is a multi-millionaire assuming she files jointly.

Strong Gladiator vibes:
May I suggest the alternate headline, “Kyrie Irving Discovers Plot to Trick Him Into Signing New Contract By Disguising Said Contract as 50 Basketballs.”
I guess he really did move to Colorado.
Wait until they find out about this little puppet musical that came out on the eve of the Iraq War!
