I've made these movies a collection on my Plex/Jellyfin server. There's also The Rundown and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island.

Welcome to the Jungle movie collection poster

    He's called "The Rock" because he has the acting talent and range of a rock.

    It all started with The Rundown. Before that, it was all desert, but I guess he didn't like the sand.

    Of course not. Don't you know where sand comes from?

    Rocks.

    "Seen any good movies recently?"

    "Just watched one, but I can't remember the title. It is starring Dwayne Johnson... with him in the jungle... actually it wasn't all that good though."

    "Do you know how little you just narrowed that down?"

    That one year, the rock didn’t leave the jungle and just pushed out movies

    Are there any jungle scenes in live action Moana?

    Walking Tall is another one.

    I mean, once you get to the jungle you can just as well film 5 movies instead of one. If you organize it well you can reuse locations and minimize travel on site. Film scenes for all 5 movies in location one, move to location 2 and so on. You just have to keep track of the wardrobe changes.

    The original Tarzan movies made use of footage from "Trader Horn" and other safari movies, as well as their own zoo.

    He certainly doesn't like to be typecast.

    I actually sat through The Smashing Machine recently because I heard they'd actually got him to act in it, like Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems. This was a complete lie, and it turned out they'd just put a wig on him.
