I'm about 3/4ths through I. Later tonight and tomrrow, I'll watch II, III, and IV. Fuck V. Then I'll go watch Rocky Balboa tomorrow night.
Its going to take a hell of a movie to move I out of the top spot though.

It wasn't really a spoiler, but some people hate even vague references of particular scenes before they see movies.

Sorry Kori, I wasn't trying to lay much out, I really didn't.
Manny, it was just my opinion on the movie.

It's no big deal. I just didn't want anyone whining about it. :lol
I'm just gonna tell you this:
Damn Stallone can lift some major iron. GOD DAMN. Power Cleans like 450 lbs.
Whatever happened to Jekka?

I'm pretty excited with seeing Rocky Balboa. I just finished Rocky. Man, thats just flat out one of the best movies ever made. It had been a long time since I had seen it. I'm on II now.

I'm kind of in a Rocky mood now. I wanna watch Rocky 1, out of all of them, that's the one I've seen the least. The one that's always on TV is Rocky 3 and 4, maybe 5. But I wanna see 1.
She's on her way back from Houston right now!
I thought for a second you got dumped or something....
Who are you seeing Rocky with then?

12-27-2006, 08:26 PM
Shiet, I'm undumpable.
I'm watching the DVDs by myself, but I'm assuming she'll go with me tomorrow unless the drive from Houston got a lot longer.

Hey Manny, when you play Poker online what program or service do you use and do you play with play or real money?
Also, Rocky II's training scene with "Going the Distance" in the background is probably the best training scene. The shadowed Rocky doing 1-handed push-ups, then him doing 1-handed pull-ups on the monkey bars and so on.
Also, IMO Rocky I's fight scene with Apollo was pretty damn good. I mean they were pretty bloodied up and tired and kept on going. The bes party when Rocko was: "Cut me Mick. You stop this fight and I'll kill ya." With his patented slurred speech.

I heard that in this movie, Rocky is older than he was in Rocky V. But that is purely speculation.

Manny, I hope you like it.
The best way to see Rocky Balboa is to watch all of them first like you're doing. I bought the Rocky Anthology for all of my brothers for Christmas and the replica Boxing Glove necklace too from Rocky III and V :lol.
http://i17.ebayimg.com/04/i/000/7f/83/2e4d_2.JPG
Rocky meant alot to me and my brothers growing up. I took them to see it Christmas Eve and gave them the necklace after the movie when emotions were flowing from the Rocky farewell.
Man, my brothers damn near teared up.
Manny, it won't hurt to watch part V, his relationship with his son in V might be good to watch again.
You can even buy a small replica Rocky statue from the original sculptor. That's pretty awesome.

Rocky VI was everything I had hoped it would be. An excellent movie that did an outstanding job in wrapping up the series. I had goosebumps for the entire last half hour of the movie.

Im doing the marathon today as well.
Im in the middle of Rocky III right now.
Stallone really acted well in this one. Was he nominated for an Oscar in 81 or whatever for this movie?
IMO, he should have.

Man, Rocky IV sucked WAY more than I remember it sucking. I-III were solid, but IV and V were weak, really weak.

I liked Rock IV. :lol
The only part that stunk was why'd Apollo have to die? Couldn't he have been seriously injured or something?
The soundtrack for it was nice. What made the movie good for me were the training montages and the fight.

Funny. IV was my second favorite to the original (they are close to tied). I didn't like V at all.
My order (I know I posted it before) is:
I/IV
II
III
V
I'm not sure where to put Rocky Balboa. Probably up there with II.

Ala Rambo III. This is was during Stallone's most patriotic days.
Also, check out Rambo IV:

Some of the 'would-be' story lines seem hilarious.

There were some great one liners in IV, but it was basically one big long ass montage with crappy 80s hair band music.
I rank them like this:
I
III
II
IV
V
Five sucked way worse, and I think one was better by FAR then the rest. II and III were very good, and IV was OK but man, I remember it being better.

I dunno.
I think I like 3 better than 2 and 1.
3 was a damn good flick.
It had the most acting by far of everyone.

Isn't 3 the one with Mr. T? Or I'm confused on the numbers?

"ROCKY BALBOA", 49 MILLION at the box office so far. :greedy
It has already doubled it's budget in only 12 days. Nothing but profit since last week and it hasn't even opened Worldwide yet, only in North America.
Stallone is proving all them haters wrong. Most people laughed about a new Rocky and dismissed it as a box office failure immediately upon hearing the first announcement.
Man, it's gonna make a killing on DVD too.
Congrats to Sly. He gave us a true hero character for over 30 years.
:clap :clap :clap :clap :clap
