Have you guys ever watched a Rock movie ? His acting fukking sucks. His movies don't sell well either.
So, what y all saying ?
These dudes are gonna talk about bringing in billions, he draws a crowd but they wrong.
And someone compared him to Will fukking Smith? Gtfoh!
Outside of the fast flicks n San Andreas, he's got pure flops, small hit Scorpion King aside.
Will Smith opened fukking Hancock in 2008, before the world really fukked with superhero movies as mainstays n it made damn near 630 million dollars. No pre-existing character fanbase or anything, just Will Smith as an a$$hole drunk Superman. That flick made more money than all of the X-men movies except Days of future past, Deadpool n Logan. It made more than Batman Begins!
Dwayne Johnson prays to the ghost of Ronald Reagan every night that he gets to Will Smith status.
Don't ever disrespect Will the Gawd like that.
To answer op tho, probably cuz he's popular but more importantly he's easy n cheap. He knows he came from carney ass wrestling so he shuts up, does his lines n cheeses for the promo. I doubt he's getting paid 20+ million the way the top class actors do.
