@VXXXJesterXXXV: Why does the Rock need a win at the box office?

I disproportionately hate the way
when talking about Hollywood, and actors, and films,
and why which actors did which films and why,
the concept of MONEY,
—the means and the end by which everything happens over there—
never gets mentioned, like it doesn't even exist.
And so every time the topic gets brought up,
the stories all have this awkward, artificial quality to them,
like a PR statement written without using the letter “e”.

To get the essence of this story,
you need to re-write it from scratch like this:

The Rock decides suffering Vin Diesel's personality for 10 weeks
isn't worth 20 million dollars, but is worth 30 million dollars.

And I didn't mention asking the Rock to watch the un-released film
or weird stories about winking at him across the room even once.

Seems kind of tonally confused.
Like it wanted to be Dark Souls
but later decided it didn't have the patience or restraint for it.
Not that a lighter-hearted Dark Souls would be a bad thing.
Might be a nice change of pace to throw a pinch of Fable in there,
but I need more context to know if there'll be a consistent tone throughout,
and not a flip-flopping identity crisis, like this trailer suggests.

Take away the outfit and half these characters look the same.
In the case of Raiden and Kung Lao,
even with the outfit they look the same.

All subsidised with Chinese slave labour.

The ScreenCrush review at the end seems to have hit the nail on the head.

@mogan: Damn you're right.
Well that's embarrassing.
In just the height of one page I scrolled right past one article's comment section into the next.
I wish each article had its own separate page...

@mogan: The comment just below this one
(which I reposted and which is currently still there)
was removed by someone or something other than me.
How or why I don't know and barely care.

Let's see if GameSpot deletes my comment again.
