Given The Rock stole the show in Pain and Gain, I'd have loved for him to have been the lead in a Transformers film. Honeslty, it would suit the tone better. He's ham-acting pro and has uber-charisma. Imagine him as a electrical engineer inventor... Not to mention, dude's usually box office Viagra. I know, not in the case of Pain and Gain. But, that's a harder sell to begin with.

 

The Rock also starred in Peter Berg's The Rundown, and is the only reason anyone remembers that movie exists

Agreed. I like Wahlberg but Johnson would have been a much better fit, plus the charisma he brings to the table is on par with 90s Will Smith IMO. I think the guy will do wonders for San Andreas next year. Seems like a perfect fit for him.

BTW, a follow-up on Free Birds: a dissertation on why the time travel in Free Birds makes no sense on a logical level. Spoilers follow untagged.

 

So the plot of the movie is that the turkeys are going back in time in stop Thanksgiving from ever being about eating turkey. This implies the time travel is going to be used to make a parallel, newly dominant universe in which pizza will be the Thanksgiving meal of choice.

 

HOWEVER, this makes no sense. Why? Because the movie reveals that Reggie is the Great Turkey, giving Jake his motivation for the entire movie. Thus, it's a paradox making the movie's version of a timeline fixed.

 

THIS MAKES NO SENSE. If Reggie is the one who caused Jake's motivation, this means that time travel cannot be used to make changes. Yet at the end, we see a universe where we eat pizza on Thanksgiving. These time travel types do not make sense while mixed.

 

There's also the fact there's a scene with four Reggies, all from different portions in time but implied to be the same Reggie. Yet, the one who comes up with the ideas is the earliest Reggie in time, and the other Reggies act surprised at his ideas. How this makes sense, I don't know.

 

Fantastic movie though.

Shayhiri is now permanently banned

Now for The Coon to be banned again for creating sock puppet accounts. Say what you want about iJack (and god knows everyone has), but when he gets banned he stays away and doesn't register a new user called "Andrew Garfield" and joins again.
