Dwayne Johnson followed up his debut lead performance in The Scorpion King with The Rundown. Released as Welcome to the Jungle outside America, The Rundown might be his very best movie. Along with Seann William Scott, Rosario Dawson, and a deliciously hammy Christopher Walken, The Rock is firing on all cylinders as both a physical and emotional actor. He can be funny when called to be, but leaves most of the humor to Scott and Walken, and he really shines as a stoic badass.   It's no mistake that Arnold Schwarzenegger makes a cameo at the beginning of this movie, passing by The Rock and telling him to "have fun." It was his world now. As The Scorpion King was The Rock's version of Conan the Barbarian, The Rundown was his version of Commando. Unfortunately, the world had changed since the 1980s, and the public appetite for throwback action-adventure movies was waning.   We were robbed of a world where he made a movie of this quality every year. But we're also robbed of a world where dozens of movies like this get made every year. We had it all, we just didn't know it.   Bonus video: The Rundown should've had a sequel! The Rock and Seann William Scott have excellent chemistry, and their partnership could easily have fit into all kinds of different sequel scenarios. Really, there should have been 10 Rundowns. We name a few other movies we think should've gotten sequels as well: https://youtu.be/PlL4FK8U8J4    Subscribe to our Patreon, Load Bearing Beams: Collector's Edition for $5 a month to get two extra episodes! patreon.com/loadbearingbeams    Time stamps: 00:04:40 — Our personal histories with The Rundown 00:14:00 — History segment: The Rock's wrestling career in 2002 and 2003, including his feud with Hulk Hogan and the fans turning against him; brief history of the production of The Rundown under director Peter Berg  00:32:20 — In-depth movie discussion 01:20:30 — Final thoughts and star ratings   Source: “Man of Action! ** Former Bethlehem resident The Rock is on a roll with ‘The Rundown'” by Amy Longsdorf | The Morning Call (2003) - https://bit.ly/4kNkxoz    Artwork by Laci Roth.   Music by Rural Route Nine.

The Summer of Rock begins as Laci and Matt dive into the movie career of Dwayne Johnson with his first leading role in The Scorpion King (2002). The Rock first graced the big screen a year earlier in The Mummy Returns, in a brief prologue in which he plays a character who seemingly has nothing to do with the sturdy nice fellow he plays in Scorpion King. And now he gets to lead a picture. And what a picture. An old-fashioned picture, you might say. One refreshingly free of irony, self-awareness, or any of the oppressive trappings of modernity. This movie's kinda great, actually. And so is The Rock. Is it possible his career peaked with his first feature? We shall find out in the weeks and months ahead.   Bonus video: Matt explains why all movie studio CEOs are basically the exact same guy and why they all make the exact same decisions.

Raised Questions: -Why is Lasse always right about films? -Will this film live up to Sean's very low expectations? -What happened to Renny Harlin? -Were the trailers for this film "wildly misleading"? -Is Peter Mullan a hallmark of quality? -How good is Rebecca Ferguson? -Does this film feel like a throwback to some early 2000's films? -Does hair suit Dwayne Johnson? -Do you 'hedge your bets' before going to the cinema?

After a Poll of bands we thought may never get a chance to win, Adema's "Adema" emerged as the clear victor and how could it not: an album we loved a single from, featuring Jonathan Davis' half-brother and a bunch of listeners telling us it's good. Well, folks...it's good. So good, in fact, that Bryan teases the P-word. Does it reach Perfecto status? You'll have to listen to find out. And of course, the articles are as good as you expect, as everyone in the band seems to hate Jonathan Davis' half-brother Marky--no one more than their current vocalist and former Orgy guitarist Ryan Shuck--and bassist Dave DeRoo declares them a nu-metal "Cinderella Story". You know, that classic tale where a band makes their debut album and labels get into a bidding war over them because the lead singer is one of the most popular band's in the world's singer's half-brother and one of the other guys used to be in that same singer's former band with a guy who is currently in Orgy, whose singer's dad is an industry maven...you get the point. It's a true come-from-behind, rags-to-riches tale and we dig into all of it right here.

Before he was a big Egyptian morally ambiguous magical warrior man in Black Adam, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnsons was a big Egyptian morally ambiguous magical warrior man in The Scorpion King. After his live action movie debut and then being a big CGI scorpion person in The Mummy Returns Mathayus (which is his name?) of Akkad is back in a tale of epic-ish proportions! A tale so epic it got a series of it's own spin-off movies which we will never review.
