Will the rock ever make an iconic movie?

Arnold did terminator
Stallone did rocky and rambo
Bruce willis did die hard
Will Smith did independence day

As someone who's billed as "the biggest movie star on the planet" he hasn't made a single iconic box office hit

The fast and furious movies imo don't count as
1) he wasn't the leading role
2) he joined the franchise halfway through
3) they're mega hits at the box office but not really iconic (maybe other than the first one which the rock's not in)
4)they're dogchit


You'd think by now something would have been created for him

His movies mostly make money but they are just that. Movies. There's no classic FILMS.

T1/T2 were films. Predator was a film.

Rock's movies have no themes at all. It's easy sugar-fix chit that caters to kids.

The rock is a piece of chit.

Used to love the guy until he threw Rogan under the bus when the mob was after him.

Bro they stopped making good movies 10-20 years ago. What's he supposed to do about it?

Everything is comic books, remakes, or franchises. Movies aren't an art form anymore, they are mechanisms to extract the most money possible out of soy neckbeards.

The film industry changes over time with new trends and different kinds of movies. The movies we liked before might not be as common now, but there are still filmmakers making artistic films. In my opinion producers are making films with a big cast and names that are in demand but there is no story.

Hollywood went from making 20-30 good movies every year to only 2-3 now. And none are "iconic." All the big budget blockbusters are reserved for comic book movies.

My 14yo daughter's mind is blown that in 1984 or 1985 you could go to the cinema just about every week and see a new absolute genre changing classic banger every time you went. Movies people are still talking bout 40 years later. Meanwhile in her lifetime they have to think back years for the last movie that made any kind of impression.

IDK, but the last few things I have seen with the Rock they made him the president of the United States. I can definitely see that as a tease that the jews in Hollywood are going to try and push him as president in one of the next couple of elections. (Ded fkn Srs)

Hollywood doesnt make any blockbuster movies anymore. He'll have to go gay or trans to show that he is stunning and brave. That's how he gets to the next level.

The first big hit "disaster film" that then went on for years after
The cgi was pretty ground breaking for the time
Has a cult following


It's pretty iconic imo whether or not you think will Smith is a cuck

ID was definitely iconic. I remember when it came out. Men in Black was huge too back then. The Rock will never be at the level Will Smith was at. Of course now he's just a cuck with a tranny son, so it aint all rainbows and sunshine at the top.

The movie you choose as iconic for Cuckhold Smith was Independence day? Anyways i don't think he would, he knows his lane and he's staying in it.

Will smith is an ass hole. You’d never see the rock lay a slap into another man outside of his wrestling start.

Never he made 7 bucks productions which writes rolls around him playing the same character as the lead and gives him full creative control on all his projects so he doesn't have to do any auditions or hard acting then they just partner with studios to make the films
