Again: who cares? Audience-wise both movies were watched less than some The Rock vehicles. It would only matter if The Rock was insecure and wanted to prove his is a "real actor", which never seemed to be his thing.

Quality of audience vs quantity.

The audience of Di Caprio is emotionally deep, and loaded with money and relevancy , plus they are great storytellers themselves among their respective social groups. People of culture, people who have cumulatively billions of hours of interesting conversations to produce.

Johnson's audience is shallow, not loaded with anything except desire for the quickest dopamine hit they can get.

Di Caprio is sitting on a gold mine, it's the opposite for Johnson

There's a reason why Steve Jobs and Paul Allen loved The Beatles, Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix instead of Cardi B, Kanye West and One Direction.

Same goes for Di Caprio audience vs. Johnson's audience.

Steve Jobs died before Cardi B got famous.
