The Rock was good, but that is one example and it was 15 years ago as well. It just seems his need for money is watering down his legacy. {nm}

Posted by: lobogotti on Jan 07, 09:37 in response to Egon's post I am pretty sure the Rock is better than any artsy fartsy...

so when is Nicholas Cage going to be held accountable for these bad films? how much longer can he remain a box office draw? lobogotti Jan 07, 06:10

Straight to DVD? {nm} HurricaneKid Jan 07, 06:19

yep {nm} lobogotti Jan 07, 06:22

interesting stats... lobogotti Jan 07, 06:21

the only other actor who is immune to bad reviews is Adam Sandler...and he most likely always will be {nm} lobogotti Jan 07, 06:30

Knowing and Bad Lieutenant were good movies. Don't forget he was also in Kick-Ass (Top 3 of 2010 for me) and Drive Angry looks crazy good {nm} FabioParme Jan 07, 08:17

BL was pretty good, Heard is enough to see Drive Angry, but some of the lines from the scenes from the trailer scare me. {nm} lobogotti Jan 07, 09:38

Well now 2% by the critics. BUT 68% by the audience ( 35 000 ratings ) Seems like he still is a bit of a B.O. draw {nm} kosma Jan 07, 08:27

oh no doubt he is, but how much longer can he be? {nm} lobogotti Jan 07, 09:37

I am pretty sure the Rock is better than any artsy fartsy movie to come out since then {nm} Egon Jan 07, 09:00

Who was in the loverly little film about Leaving Las Vegas? Did anyone see that one ;) {nm} tribality Jan 07, 09:50

i think people are missing the point. yes, he was and can continue to be in good films. he can even be a good actor, but why keep chucking lobogotti Jan 07, 11:08

and Leaving Las Vegas was in my top 200 for the last 20 years ;) {nm} lobogotti Jan 07, 11:08

Haven't you heard? He's is major debt. Drive Angry looks awesome though. {nm} HarryWarden Jan 07, 22:13
