>The movie’s star, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, however, is on a one man social media mission to convince the world that “Baywatch” isn’t as bad as everyone’s saying it is. Cue the actor launching into an almost Trumpian tweetstorm on Thursday about how out of touch the media is with what the the public wants.
>He kicked it off by reminding us all of the “extremely high scores” from fans.
Im sure joking about satan and child molesting on SNL doesnt help his career
Lucas Sanders
>everyone’s saying it is critics are deluded
Kayden Cooper
>career suicide 'no'
Dominic Morris
He's just asspained because he thought he could do no wrong. His movies have always been trash, I'm surprised it's taken this long for them to get shit on.
Isaac Ross
Will this hurt his presidential bid?
Justin Young
Those wristbands look operator af W2c?

fucking lel
Then again, Sup Forums has the same fucking attitude regarding their shit taste in film.
Liam Thomas
Fan here: I loved Baywatch. The whole audience cheered. Gonna watch it at least 2 more times and recommend all of you to do the same. Dwayne rocks.
Matthew Kelly
Baywatch was great though. Tons of laughs and highly entertaining. Can't wait to see it again.
Sebastian Russell
Who asked for a Baywatch movie anyway?
Jayden Roberts
He's getting all Joss Whedon on people?
Why do people use twitter, honestly? It just makes people look bad.
Isaiah Morgan
I've seen this flick and I honestly laughed my ass off throughout. It's not a great movie but it's certainly not the turd people are claiming it is, it flopped because you just can't make a baywatch movie in CURRENT YEAR.
He actually replied to the guy from Screenjunkies defending the poor opening. Does this surprise anybody else? Why would he ever care this much? Like the other user said, it's not like his movies were ever home runs with the critics.
Caleb Hill
>Sup Forums kept insisting it was going to great right up until the release date despite all the evidence against it >now it's all about shitting on the Rock and the movie
Contrarian to the very end.
Nicholas Brooks
The Rock's one of those guys like Arnie that believes working hard, giving your all, staying positive and staying motivated will give you success and great things. And he's not wrong, but people like that have trouble dealing with being told something they've worked on is pile of shit when they're at the peak of their game.
Angel Gray
LOL nobody thought it was going to be great
Angel Brown
>Sup Forums kept insisting it was going to great I don't remember seeing one Baywatch thread on here until The Dwayne started sperging out.
Grayson Martinez
SO, every day the world gets more retarded and today they decided to forget that taste is subjective. The rock can like baywatch and others cannot and it does not mean one person is righter than than another.
Joshua Evans
Whatever you're paid it's too little.
Cameron Martinez
>People peeing themselves from laughing has been reported in theaters across the country. >It's better than the alternative. #Baywatch twitter.com/mollie_jo/status/867853878313836546 … The cringe...the cringe
Grayson Garcia
He is trying to copy Trump.
Landon Powell
whats his endgame?
William Ward
I don't want to derail this into a politics thread but I legitimately think The Rock thinks he can get his way by being a loudmouth like Trump and calling people out.
Except you know Trumpposting is the funniest shitposting of all time, and Rockposting is still too nice. Rockposting is like the diet version.
Jace Morris
What's the alternative? Shitting themselves out of boredom?
Nicholas Turner
>what's his fucking problem?
He thought guys would want to watch bimbos running on the beach with their tits pushed out. Apparently the Rock thinks everyone is queer now
Elijah Nelson

Bentley Hughes
oh, that's an insult and not a compliment. | am sorry you consider basic facts as shillery. fag faggot faggery go get your dick sucked by a man
James Torres
It's a compliment you insecure cuck.
Parker Morris
>Republican >complete f*cking idiot that can't accept reality
So what else is new?
Henry Scott
fine whatever go get your dick sucked by a girl then if you are capable
good luck
Caleb Cruz
Good goy.
Lincoln Nguyen
Is the Rock republican? He seems like the liberal type.
Justin Ross
What did he mean by this?
Luke Harris
He's always stayed apolitical like most Wrestlers do.
I was always pretty sure he was too much of a meathead to ever care about politics in a grander scale.
Elijah Torres
Criticising a Dwayne Johnson movie for being bad is like criticisng Nirvana because their singer was hard to understand, or criticising South Park because the animation is crappy
Jason Evans
>I, anonymous of Sup Forums, do decree that people who have earned millions of dollars and cultivated a popular public persona are all dumber than I
Brayden Bennett
>the rock is going back to being a heel
Justin Hall
i feel like the movie accomplished what it set out to do, be a decent, comedy that does not take it self seriously.
Dominic Long
>Trumpian I'm so sick of politics being dragged into literally everything. Fuck off with this.
Leo Hall
>too much of a meathead to ever care about politics Dumb people are usually more interested in politics than smart people are.
Jacob Lee
There should be a PR person in charge of their Twitter to protect them from themselves.
Brody Ross
>the media didn't like a movie with attractive, half-naked women in it consider me shocked i never cared for baywatch and probably won't watch this but i know for a fact it's wouldn't be as bad as they make it out to be
Levi Stewart
Does he act like this when every movie critically bombs or is this a first?
And if this is a first, why is he taking it so hard?
Jeremiah Harris
lol so mad hilary lost
Ryder Mitchell
He produced the movie. That's why.
Samuel Rogers
All rock movies have being terrible.
Jaxson Flores
He's not that smart if he's bringing BAD PUBLICITY TO HIS MOVIE.
I'm not a millionaire but I can tell you that it's a losing fight to argue with critics.
Isaac Jones
I'm a fellow 'pede actually (MAGA brother!)
It's just that I'd like to spend some of my free time not thinking about politics.
Robert Ross
>little baby Trumpkin mad that more people voted for Hillary than the orange retard
laughing so hard at this complete idiocy
lol
Kayden Sanders
the thing is The Rock seems to only care about working hard. he doesn't care about the quality of the project and isn't amazing at picking projects like prime Arnie. The Rock is one of the biggest stars currently, he could get great directors to work with him but he doesn't give a fuck. His only good movies are Pain & Gain and The Rundown, the two movies where he worked with great directors who knew how to use him.
Michael Stewart
>laughing so hard >lol are you even old enough to be here?
Levi Reyes
Yeah, but South Park knows where it stands in terms of animation quality (though I'd argue it's actually okay). Dwayne Johnson doesn't seem to get it. In other words, it's forgivable if someone is aware of what's wrong with what they do, but when they're deluded then there's problems.
Also, it could be a publicity stunt. He's essentially a giant whore.
Lucas Sanders
i like your double line spacing, fellow redditor
Ayden Lee
Holy shit still this butthurt
Ethan Collins
lmao
the donald much?
hahahahahaha
Henry Turner
>The Rock is one of the biggest stars currently
I feel like this was maybe 5 to 10 years ago. He's verging on sticking to cameos and generally being phased out.
I mean, who really goes to see a movie because Dwayne Johnson is in it?
Levi Sanders
China
Jordan Jones
The Rock could've been a proper action hero for a new generation but he chose to do nothing but kids movies after The Rundown. He's already past his prime and will soon start doing the old man roles. At least Statham has been solidly pumping out R-rated action movies because he knows his audience. He didn't stop to make a decade of shitty kids movies.
Lincoln Morales
>I'm a fellow 'pede actually (MAGA brother!)
Noah Scott
I don't have a reply to this but I want you to know that you've opened my eyes to what Chinese people enjoy out of the states.
Oliver Miller
ugh I hate that some people are actually like this
William Sanchez

Anthony Roberts
epic, shadily fellow brother. how about all those based black men and jews
Brody Perez
Ok crybaby
Easton Allen
>Why do people use twitter, honestly? It just makes people look bad. To spread their useless opinions and interests. They dont care how they look; they dont think about it because they're not insecure like you or me.
that butthurt lefty globalist party is just fucking toxic and ruins everything it touches in its utter desperation......
David Gomez
Something reddit obviously
Ryder Bailey
he played as a tooth fairy and other bullshit. Why does he want to die for Baywatch?
Ian Watson
>take out their knees
Aaron Phillips
Baywatch is something more for TV. Not a movie.
Colton Price
The Rock and Zac Efron made a tranny joke and the critics are butthurt. Not that hard to connect.
Matthew Lewis
Hows it going Dwayne
Ethan Jenkins
good, trannies are a fucking joke. time to stop treating them like real people.
Liam Thompson
lmao everyone has been shitting on this movie here
Xavier Sanders
Do americans really consider urinating on themselfs a possitive thing?
Luis Martin
pede is short for centipede. Centipede is a meme term that r/thedonlad users call each other, It stems from a youtube video called "You Cant Stump the Trump"
Guys, it's clear what is happening.. She got to him.. She sunk those fangs into him and made him delirious.. It's the semen demon all over again We can only hope and wish that Dwayne recovers from the succubus's spell. #DontBlameDwayne
Austin Carter
but he's a faggot, shouldn't he have immunity to that shit?
Jaxon Russell
>THE FANS
Oliver Turner
how many times are you going to make this thread?
Brayden Nelson
He replied to this guy...
Oliver Brown
>The Rock and Zac Efron made a tranny joke and the critics are butthurt. Not that hard to connect. Yep, all the negative reviews are whining about homophobia, sexism and transphobia. Pretty clear to see what's happening here.
Elijah Williams
>tfw Trump will be referenced in everything even long after his presidency
Jaxon Ward
It's a fake account from Rocko himself
Dylan Howard
>if the president was a nigger demonrat everyone would be praising his direct approach to the people and his use of social media to further connect with the lives of americans when his second term nears its end i hope he turns into a transgendered and retroactively becomes the first female president ever
Ian Hill
But the rock is a republicunt
Hudson Bailey
More like RepublicAn'ts regarding Shlumpfcare am I right?
Noah Green
Johnson is not doing anything more controversial than the type of damage control that was rolled out with the release of Ghostbusters 2016.
Gavin Thompson
>joined may 2017
really makes you think
Julian Roberts
how did that work out last time?
Elijah Robinson
He wasn't just an actor in the movie, he financed it.
His own money is on the line... You wouldn't shill for your own business venture?
Cameron Reyes
Isn't he in the Jumangi reboot too also the guy from his other movie kevin hart and jack black fuck and the cutie what's her name! ;(
