While promoting Moana 2, he told the BBC, "Sing! You’ve paid your hard-earned money for a ticket, and you've gone into a musical, and you’re into it. Sing."

"If you want to sing along, go to a concert smh," one person said.

"Get me in a theater with Dwayne. I can make him admit he was wrong," another person threatened.

And this person reasoned: "The Rock is an okay guy, and I like him, but he just needs to nope his way out of this one."

Ultimately, where do you stand on singing in a movie theater? Team Rock or Team RESPECT FOR OTHER PEOPLE?
