Since he became cool and not a wrestler. I dunno I think around walking tall or whatever that movie is. But his name sounds really red neck.

He is doing the same thing that Ludacris is (still don't remember his real name, he will always be Ludacris to me). They want to be taken more seriously as actors, so they are trying to move away from their stage name and are using their real names.

I'd download JCVD, Pirates (Adam's version), The Wrestler, Taken, Gomorrah.

Or download Madea Goes to Jail, drop lots of pills with a whiskey chaser, and realize that death is better than watching that movie.

They are all car movies. vanishing point is about a guy driving a 1970 whit 440 magnum challenger, dazed and confused has several nice cars, two lane blacktop is this guy in a gto the judge racing some kid in a 55 chevy. back to the future is the delorean. And christine is a book about a crazy car, a 59 impala if i remember correctly, possibly not but it is a sweet lookig old car.

Badass movies Adam, as a matter fo fact i was gonna buy Vanishing point and Bullit for my pop's b-day yesterday. (decided on a wireless mouse for his laptop )

OP- Oh he started using his real name when he wanted to be taken seriously as an actor. If you notice most of his movie under the Rock name are wild action movies by WWE studios, guess he was tired of them getting a cut for his licensed wrestling name.

Just saw No Man's land the other day. 1987 movie with Charlie Sheen about stealing Porsches. Cheesey but good. You guys ever see crazy larry dirty mary (or something like that). How about Duel, I think it was Steven Spielbers forst movie (before Jaws).

I remember really liking it when I was young. I saw it a year ago and thought it was really cheesey. No man's land aged better. Plus there's a Z28 in it.
