As a Ronda fan I think this is very good news

I agree, these are all great opportunities for Honda to learn the value of humility.
It's a great life lesson.

So much for her movie career. It was obvious she was getting roles just because of her success in MMA. I expect her to get maybe one or two more roles in small movies and thats it. So laughable her nutthuggers thought she would be some huge Hollywood star even when she quits MMA.

Holly Bless

Ding dong the witch is dead, the wicked witch of the west is dead. Maybe a remake of the Wizard of Oz?

Correct, the role was taken over by Donnie Whalberg.

Carano does nothing but B movies now, and is much hotter, imo.

You have totally lost me. You started off talking about Ronda's cameo's being a normal starting point and now you're rambling about people starting small as actors.

I was replying to a dude who argued that Rourke started with big roles - he clearly didn't.
Actually Ronda is starting higher on the totem pole than Rourke did. And - again - while Rourke is no De Niro, he works and has had some decent parts over the years.
So the point is that you can (and almost do) start with small roles and then - if fortunate - wind up with a decent career in the movies.

That's real talk. Rousey is such a successful star, that she plays herself. Just like Chuck played himself in Entourage.

I like it better when Chuck plays himself as a trainer in Badass 2. That part was funny.

The real questions is can Wahlberg beat Mayweather?

 

[chitoortiz]

I appreciate this.

As I predicted in an earlier thread, Ronda's getting the rug pulled out from under her in Hollywood. Erratic behavior plus wooden acting is only overlooked if you're an invincible darling.



Still a fan of her as a fighter, but she needs to learn some humility and hopefully this will help. Otherwise Holm's going to whoop her again.

IB4 Honda fans cry.

I think I read a thread about this earlier.

It's not like she was replaced by Felice Herrig though.

Then there's Cynthia Rothrock who has made a zillion movies - I have no idea how much money she makes. But in the parlance of the "industry" she is "working". She also produces movies. She started in kung fu and kickboxing and then transitioned to movies.

I prefer Rothrock's earlier Hong Kong film fights (such as this one from "Righting Wrongs" aka "Above the Law") to what I've seen of her later work.

This should have been obvious. Her appeal in the movie roles was based on her being the undefeated, unstoppable UFC champion. Now that she is dethroned and proven mortal she lacks the acting chops and innate beauty to keep Hollywood's interest.

Meanwhile Gina will be in Deadpool this year.

Then there's Chuck Norris. First role - nameless part in Dean Martin's The Wrecking Crew - watch it (not to find Chuck Norris) but to droll over Elke Sommer who is HOT!!!
