    I think they should make a movie called “Dice” about the guilt two twin brothers have to live with after their repeated doubles shenanigans result in a thimble being unjustly imprisoned without even getting to pass Go. It will star Dwayne the Rock Johnson and Robert Downey Jr and it will be worth every penny of its $3.6 billion budget

      With a special guest appearance as The Man Who Usta Be Dice by Andrew Clay. Clay will say his two minute appearance was done as a “favor”. He’ll demand $500 million but the studio will talk to him down to $75 mil. A bargain really.

    He really went with ”One Race Films” for the name of his production company?

      I googled and googled and I could not find an official answer. Here’s an obscure Reddit thread…

      Why did Vin Diesel name his production/film company “One Race Productions”?

      I think it might have to do something with his race. He has black ancestry and he couldn’t get roles in the beginning of his career because he wasn’t black enough to play a black guy and he wasn’t white enough to play a white guy.

      Maybe so, the company was established in 1995 in the beginning of his career. Around 5 years before any Fast & Furious movies.

      -–

      Rant: Fuck google.

        Hmm, I guess it makes sense for it to be an ironic name for a company started by a mixed race person (Diesel never met his biological dad and was raised by a black adoptive father, although his biological dad’s background is unknown).

          I know much of anything important about him but I assume he’s a good guy. Yet he gave one of his companies a very shitty name and over decades many people surely told him was terrible but for mysterious reasons or at least reasons google doesn’t know - he refused to change it.

      “you knocked his block off!”

      I just realized something. That will probably be the theme of the tv series comedy spin-off.

      Dunno. But I bet he’s going seem like he’s about to lose but he’ll Dwayne Johnson his opponent in the end. Johnson puts him winning all fights into every movie contract he signs.

    I’m into this if and only if the treat it like a serious sports movie, but the robots look exactly as brightly colored and goofy as the toy.
