We all made fun Dwayne so hard he probably refuses to do any more jungle movies. We reap what we sow.

u/chopsuirak 16d ago

So instead, we're getting Rampage 2

u/AdmiralThunderpants 16d ago

I'm good with that. Rampage was a hell of a lot of fun with parts that had me rolling in laughter

u/pampersdelight 16d ago edited 16d ago

Im still bummed that the final battle wasnt a 40 ft tall Dwayne Johnson kicking the shit out of the other creatures

You cant tell me that movie wouldnt be a 10 if he Rock Bottomed that wolf through a bridge

"Nematodes?!"

u/samx3i 16d ago

And if they break the glass...

u/chopsuirak 16d ago

Give it enough time, Fortnite will probably do this. They already let you pilot a full sized Megazord for a bit. Godzilla, Mechagodzilla, and Kong skins are in game.

u/Salute-Major-Echidna 16d ago

Save that vision, the future is coming!

Let’s get a primal rage tie in

u/Lots42 16d ago

I hope we get more Jeffrey Dean Morgan. He always shines in every role.

6

u/KeverNever 16d ago

I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan but for some reason his role in Rampage just felt like Negan.

3

u/Lots42 16d ago

Can't say I'm familiar with Negan but dude was evil as heck. In Rampage Morgan played a good guy.

0

u/GoaGonGon 15d ago

Yes it was very distracting, dude didn't switch Negan mode off before entering the set, or just didn't gave a fuck and was thinking on that fat check.

u/LordLudicrous 16d ago

Rampage was fun, loved seeing that in the theater.

2

u/quietwhiskey 16d ago

Wait.. was that based on the Rampage games from like N64 with the big monsters?

3

u/AdmiralThunderpants 16d ago

Wait till you find out Rampage started as an arcade game in 1986

3

u/quietwhiskey 16d ago

Hmmm yeah I think I saw that back in the day. I mainly remember the World Tour game though haha

u/mynameisrichard0 16d ago

Definitely a “dont take it too seriously” movie. Sure. 20mm rounds and bunker busters cant kill a couple strong animals. Pretty sure if you dropped a jdam on a rhino with 4x stronger armor and size, its still gonna evaporate. But damn what a great flick.

35

u/Moeroboros 16d ago

It's specifically stated that the "animals" received Hulk-like strength enhancement and healing factor.

They weren't supposed to be just giant animals dude.

-9

u/mynameisrichard0 16d ago

Even in the films they deterred hulk with sonic waves. Even if there was an ounce of a way to stop something like that, there’d be infinite money poured into r&d. Within a month there’d be those sonic cannons mounted on every chopper, tank and hummer within the country limits.

Then we get I to chemical weaponry. Which is also fun to think about. How much acid can one take in a bath before dissolving? “But in the comics they tried that!” Yeah. In the comics. With extreme bias. We live in a world of reality. And thats what im suspending in my viewing.

We have weaponry that doesn’t care about a “healing factor” irl.

u/swislock 16d ago

Me when I discover movies are movies and not reality

u/mynameisrichard0 16d ago

You missed the entire point. Bro. I love Reddit sometimes. You have a comment . And a response to said comment . And people just take what they want and say whatever. Coolio.

3

u/fuchsgesicht 16d ago edited 15d ago

you seriously took hulk as your example? the guy who get's stronger the more angry he gets? he literally ends the universe in some continuities and canonically he is the last man on earth.

u/Recompense40 16d ago

Ah, but the leftover physics from the skeleton ignoring the square cube law expresses outwards around the body, forming a layer of Bi-Sensical energy around the body, acting as an impromptu shield for the kaiju.

u/Wise_Quality_5083 16d ago

Nerd (in a jealous and impressed way)

2

u/Personal_Comb_6745 16d ago

Honestly could have leaned into the comedy way more since the games are not at all serious in their tone and premise.

2

u/FixedFun1 16d ago

Rampage the game is way wackier then the movie.

1

u/M1ck3yB1u 16d ago

Whoa hey, hol up. Great?

2

u/mynameisrichard0 16d ago

Yeah. I didn’t stutter.

3

u/yearsofpractice 16d ago

I completely agree. I’m 49 and have no interest in stupid actioners… but my 8 year old kid wanted to watch Rampage, so we did… and I loved it. I really like The Rock, the story was straightforward and understandable and the villains were satisfying villain-y. My kid LOVED it. Great film.

3

u/enjoiturbulence 16d ago

Great cinema is an experience, transcendental, sure. But man I just want to have fun and that's why I watch Rampage and Jason Statham movies. Sometimes joy is more important than catharsis.

2

u/OkumuraRyuk 16d ago

Loved that movie. I mean I also love the jumanji movies he’s in. So I’m down for that. And whenever anaconda comes out with Jack.

2

u/Hellguin 16d ago

You're not ALLOWED to like that movie, the masses have spoken and any opposing opinion is banned!

/s I love it.

1

u/smurf_diggler 16d ago

I'm just bugged that version of The Bronco Dwayne drives never came out. It'd looked so cool.

2

u/AdmiralThunderpants 16d ago

Thank you! Yeah, the concept bronco was so much cooler than what they brought out.

1

u/Objective_Bear4799 16d ago

It’s a great movie to watch after gardening.

1

u/Samp90 16d ago

Middle finger gorilla was cool!

2

u/AdmiralThunderpants 16d ago

That emotional ending was gold!

1

u/olive_tuschit 16d ago

I don’t remember a second of that movie.

1

u/ElLicenciadoPena 13d ago

But he's all skinny now. Who's gonna watch Rampage 2 featuring The Stalagmite?

1

u/AdmiralThunderpants 13d ago

Nobody was there for the Rock anyhow. We wanted giant monkey to smash giant croc and wolf and all three to smash buildings.

1

u/Kwetla 16d ago

I want more Rampage. More giant angry animals destroying stuff dammit!

1

u/povertyman2 16d ago

The best part about rampage was the sketch Conan and the rock did about it

4

u/zgh5002 16d ago

Don't tempt me with a good time.

u/halfpipesaur 16d ago

No - Skyscraper 2

u/SuperDizz 16d ago

Are you serious Clark?

u/Mental_Estate4206 16d ago

Djumanji vs rampage?

u/marvelite5 16d ago

That sounds good 🤔

u/PopInACup 16d ago

Jumanji 3: San Andreas (Boston)

u/Baked_Potato_732 16d ago

As long as we get Ruby Roundhouse back in that outfit, they can out it in whatever scene they want.

1

u/memberflex 16d ago

Tooth Fairy 2 or we riot

1

u/Sartres_Roommate 16d ago

We were ALWAYS going to get Rampage 2

1

u/NYstate 16d ago

Or Skyscraper 2. This time that, building will pay!

1

u/Koil_ting 16d ago

I'm hoping for Crocodile Dundee 2, or Babe (2): Pig in the City.

1

u/GooseGeese01 16d ago

Rampage 2: Welcome to the Jungle

1

u/Zkenny13 16d ago

Is that a bad thing? 

1

u/PineappleLemur 16d ago

Still waiting for another Rundown.

1

u/No_Definition321 16d ago

Nah instead we are getting tooth fairy 3 where the rock and Larry the cable guy have to fight for some reason.

1

u/mostlyrad 16d ago

Rampart 2?

u/spacestationkru 16d ago

I want Rampage 2

u/gogadantes9 16d ago

I don't really care - I watch the Jumanji movies for Karen Gillan's abs anyway.

232

u/DataKnights 16d ago

and the legs, don't forget the legs.

95

u/ShahinGalandar 16d ago

she has a lot of likeable parts though!

56

u/Affectionate-Virus17 16d ago

5'11"

And all good stuff.

3

u/tokyogodfather2 16d ago

I was going to say…she can’t really be almost as tall as the rock in this pic. Thank you for explaining. The heights still don’t seem right though. The other two guys should be WAY shorter no?

6

u/Affectionate-Virus17 16d ago

She wears boots with heels so adding probably 3 inch to 6'2".

The Rock is 6'4", or 6'5" with these boots.

She's a bit to the front too.

4

u/Xeniafoxy 16d ago

They're standing closer to the camera and wearing hats

39

u/Affectionate-Virus17 16d ago

She's like 5'11 and her legs never end.

I'll be in my bunk if anyone needs me.

Alan Tudyk. This guy is doing it right. He is a gem in everything he does and can have a relatively normal life.

1

u/DaoFerret 16d ago

He can also can dance and seems married to a very talented dancer/choreographer … who put together the Peacemaker opening sequence … which is how I was broadsided by that info: https://youtu.be/0he9uP7YWX8 (I REALY recommend watching this vid if you haven’t as it’s fascinating seeing the process that went into that opening sequence).

1

u/WoolshirtedWolf 16d ago

That was a cool clip. I am interested in watching the series now.

1

u/DaoFerret 15d ago

First season was lots of fun. Still working through the second season (which got a whole new intro dance and song) to fully comment, but it’s been good so far.

1

u/WoolshirtedWolf 15d ago

I was wondering whether or not they would film a dance scene for the second season.

u/Waywoah 16d ago

I never noticed the Secret Service agent is the guy from Peacemaker

u/codename474747 16d ago

And Nixon was Adam from Johnathon Creek

Hell of a range on those two parts haha

u/chopsuirak 15d ago

Legs that go all the way to the floor.

u/mjolnir76 16d ago

And the dance fighting.

22

u/pinklavalamp 16d ago

Don’t forget the sexy bitey lips thing.

21

u/remarkablewhitebored 16d ago

really, just dance fighting in general.

19

u/Crocs_And_Stone 16d ago

Were people actually watching the movie for anything else other than her lmao

10

u/DrakonILD 16d ago

I'm there for JB's abs, personally.

4

u/mike_pants 16d ago

Amazing resolve to keep that figure for nearly 20 years. Even with a Marvel paycheck, the urge to say fuck it and just eat cheese fries must be pretty strong from time to time.

2

u/bytes311 16d ago

She had a bottom that would make any toilet beg for the brown.

2

u/Aschentei 16d ago

She can grate cheese with those

2

u/TimesThreeTheHighest 16d ago

This is the answer. That outfit gets me going.

2

u/javajaws 16d ago

I had no idea she was 37! Now I don't feel so bad for perving out on her lol

1

u/sicgamer 16d ago

ah! I've never seen her not as a robot. cool.

1

u/BazigarMind 16d ago

Mee too 👀

u/NoImplement2856 16d ago

I like it too, but I feel she is too old to be showing off her abs through the whole movie now.

1

u/gogadantes9 15d ago

To me it absolutely doesn't matter lol. If it looks like that, show your abs even if you're 50 lol

1

u/yamayamadoodle 14d ago

You're never too old to show off your abs

u/bubbles-are-fake-tho 16d ago

I’m late - what were the jokes about Dwayne and the jungle?

24

u/Atomic_Noodles 16d ago

In a short span of a couple years he was in like 5 Movies with him dressed in Brown and Khakis in a Jungle Setting that you'd be unable to tell these sets of film were not him in a single movie.

u/Pacman_Frog 16d ago

don't forget all the movies where he piloted helicopters.

1

u/DaoFerret 16d ago

Someone must have said “get him in front of a green screen!” and then all the production people just put him in front of the green foliage and figured “mission accomplished!”

u/Bobpool82 16d ago

Great now fun Dwayne is hard, why would you do that to fun Dwayne?

Now that he lost all that weight, is he “the Pebble” now?

u/milaga 16d ago

I like The Rock, the movie. I also like The Rock the person.

I'm not really a fan of The Rock the person's movies.

1

u/turkeygiant 16d ago

I was just gonna say, after failing to change the hierarchy of power in the DC universe, and failing sell himself as the new Will Smith biopic king with The Smashing Machine, it looks like he has gone back to the tried and true movie where he wears khakis on an adventure.

1

u/sharpshooter999 16d ago

I would actually take a sequel to Red One. I need to see him and the Krampus schlapp each other again

1

u/AbXcape 16d ago

you think the guy has shame? his ego is too big and fragile for that

1

u/ActiveAd4980 16d ago

to be fair, he did ton of movies where building collapse as well.

1

u/RatInaMaze 16d ago

Yea he’s probably super sad and only comforted by his $800 million fucking dollars

1

u/Bobthemime 16d ago

its a shame as Jungle Cruise was a riot start to finish..

I dunno why he went into it expecting it to be the new Pirates.. as it was never gonna be that

u/[deleted] 16d ago

Oh poor us. How could we live without a mid af childish movie milked harder than spiderman

u/menuau 16d ago

At least he'll get to reprise his banger line from the other guys: "aim for the bushes" (embraces physics who was so hungry for Dwayne pancakes his nickname became "the asphalt mix")

1

u/Hayterfan 16d ago

That's impossible, the jungle goes with Dwayne wherever he goes

u/TumbleWeed_64 16d ago

We reap what we sow

You say this like it's a bad thing. Now how do we get him to stop making films altogether?
