One of my favorites.

Also known as “The Rundown”.

Christopher Walken is in it too.

Ahh. I heard from somewhere that he identifies as black.

Maybe someone else heard he identifies as Samoan...:)

Either way, it is what is between his ears, what he does, and what comes out of his mouth that counts to me.

Indeed. The Rock is no conservative savior.

LOL, there is a group of actors who play oddly creepy roles, Willem Dafoe is one of them...and Christopher Walken is another.

I do like both of them.

You will not be disappointed in this Walken role then.

He is mad that the Snowflakes were offended that he was not black enough to play, “Black Adam” in a new superhero movie project he is working on.

Well he wrestled under his Samoan Grandfather's name for years

His Grandfather was High Chief Peter Fanane Maivia. (yes his grandfather was a chief)
who was a wrestler and an actor.
Also his grandfather was a huge supporter of President Reagan.

“...Johnson spoke at the Republican Convention in 2000 (see video below) and is a Registered Republican. He gets that the snowflakes are killing our freedoms including freedom of speech...”

Good to hear he’s the Right side of things. I enjoy his movies.

To me, this is encouraging to hear, but not because I view it as a negative for him to identify as “black” as someone told me.

It means, if he hasn’t embraced it, one of two things:

His Samoan heritage means more to him than his Black heritage, OR...

He isn’t opportunistic in his use of the race card.

'He’s in for a world of racial crap, from the leftist, socialist, commie, anarchist demonkkkRATs, if he enters politics as a Republican."

He's immune. His father is black and his mother is Samoan. He can literally tell anyone to kiss his @$$ if they try that "uncle tom sellout" schtick.

Seems he is one of them. The enemy. Glad I decided a few years ago to quit watching his films.

Exactly. Talented physical actor, but... exactly.
