In response to "the argument on TT/ST about whether The Rock will ever break through as the "next Schwarzenegger" goes back over ten years now" by chuckles

That's not the question here though.

For a guy who very easily coulda been a huge action star but hasn't been....he's carved out a pretty solid career overall and appears to continue that decent career into the future.

squandered. doing Disney shit compared to being a $20 million per picture heir to Cruise/Stallone/Arnie -- nm - chuckles Jul 28, 08:30 7
- He had the opportunities....most of us like the Rundown it seems...audiences didn't - Will Hunting Jul 28, 08:34
- I don't think he was getting the $20 million action star offers much, thus the kiddie films. -- nm - ty97 Jul 28, 08:32 5
  - because he squandered the original opportunity from Scorpion King - chuckles Jul 28, 08:34
  - it was all there for him to be that guy though. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 28, 08:34 2
    - It was, and I'm not clear why it didn't come together. But I don't think it was his lack of trying. -- nm - ty97 Jul 28, 08:34 1
      - I don't think it was lack of effort either... - Mel Profit Jul 28, 08:36
  - Definitely not, given how much movies like The Rundown and Doom made at the BO. Even the Scorpion King only made $90M -- nm - Roger More Jul 28, 08:34
