Spoilers Peacemaker Season 2 (Spoilers)

Yep, it's important to note that not all concentration camps were death camps. And while yes, the latter would have likely not been able to last that long, there's no reason the labor camps couldn't still exist. And considering the language people use, specifically saying 'escaped' or 'got loose', combined with Vigilante 2's speech I don't think they're merely segregated.

True. They were all labor camps. And some of them were death camps. Far more likely the Nazis just rounded up everyone they didn't like and stuck them in labor camps.

I was thinking along the lines of the American Japanese internment camps of WWII, coupled with forced factory/farming work.

It's been a really long time since Dwayne played anything other than The Rock, but he used to try. He was a lot better in the days of The Rundown or Be Cool.

HIs latest film, perhaps?

Considering Hitler based a lot of his policies on US policies, it's not a stretch. Some things the US did were too drastic for the Nazis. But then we never had camps like Dachau. Japanese internment and genocide of Native Americans, yes. Murder camps, no.

I think you know what I'm going to say. Consider this a friendly heads-up.

If you told me a few years ago who out of John Cena, Dave Bautista, and Dwayne Johnson would be your favorite wrestler turned actor, I would’ve said Johnson no doubt. But in so many ways, I think Cena and Bautista have lapped Johnson because of their willingness to choose different projects that allow them show their acting chops or appear vulnerable, while Johnson really settled into that action role that felt more openly like personal branding.

Bautista is actually a really good actor. I hope he goes far.

Seems likely, but I haven't seen The Smashing Machine yet.

The trailer seems to show that he's at least not just playing the character as himself, in the pic. Since it's a biopic, I would hope not.

Considering it's a character that's really close to his real life, it's probably not a stretch.

Different mannerisms, different tone of voice, etc..

Considering it's a character that's really close to his real life, it's probably not a stretch.

He portrays a character who worked in a similar industry to his own previous career, but that's where the similarities end. That doesn't make him the same character, or a character which has a life similar to his, or imply that he deals with the same challenges and issues that the character did.
