Rewatched it today, remembering the amazing Carl Weathers. He is one of these actors who, imo, allways enriched the movies he was in from 2nd row. I cant remember any movie he had the leading role in. But every movie I remember him having a supporting role in is awesome. He had that natural charisma that you can not learn. Rest in peace, legend!

Nice trip down memory lane! I'll let each of you look it up on YouTube, but it's easy to find there. But Henry Winkler (Fonzi) who is generally regarded as one of the kindest and most generous of fellow actors, was instrumental in getting Rocky made. There are many great stories of the artistic persistence of then unknown Stallone getting this made, but the stories that Henry Winkler tells are amazing. Added to the fact that Henry Winkler is such a good story teller I won't go further. (In particular, if you can't easily find, Henry Winkler's recent - late 2023 - appearance on the Rich Eisen show.) As the Rocky's spilled out 2,3,4,... and the various 'Bloods' kept propagating 'Second', 'Third', 'Last', 'Final'... and Sylvester Stallone became more and more an Action Hero meme it is easy to forget the triumph and well earned acclaim of both the original Rocky and the original First Blood. Writing on Rocky and then the poignant "forgotten returning Vietnam Vet" character and portrayal in First Blood are both noteworthy.

And his range too, from Apollo Creed to Golf Coach for Adam Sandler! On 'Pardon the Interruption' (PTI on ESPN) Tony Kornheiser (I think it was) tells of Mohammad Ali saying that the Apollo Creed character of Carl Weathers, "He really is me!" (approx) Rest in Peace

“Let’s Get Ready To Rumble” was the invention of Michael Buffer and he is the only person who can say it. He smartly made it part of a song so now it’s technically a music performance when he does it. It also didn’t come around until the 90s… His brother Bruce Buffer is the voice of the UFC and shockingly they didn’t even meet each other until they were adults. Their dad had 2 families…

The heavy beefcake doesn't start until Rocky 3. The first two Rocky movies focus on the love story between Adrien and Rocky. Rocky 3 is worth watching for Mr. T's portrayal of Clubber Lange. Rocky 3 has one of the most quoted villains in pop culture. The love story between Adrien and Rocky really doesn't become the focus again until the movie titled "Rocky Balboa".

Simone, Cassie over at Popcorn in Bed just did this one not too long ago and her reaction was much like yours. It's been fun to watch you both fall in love with this one. For a first film written by Stallone this has a ton of heart in it and I think that's been lost in the way people think about it now. It's just another fight movie to those that have never seen it. Cassie liked it enough that she's also watched Rocky II and III up to this point. I hope you will get to those as well eventually. Thanks for the reaction.

Guillermo Antonio Ricci Alvarez

Stallone wrote almost all the movies he's been at included Rambo,Rocky,Creed...also,Tom Cruise usually is able to do his own stunts as he is a producer on those movies

Andrew T

I have nothing of insight to contribute to the comments. I just think the pre-reaction discussion is so adorkable.

Githerax

Per Simone's mention of Tom Cruise's stunt in MI 5: Rogue Nation, time for a Mission Impossible marathon. Pay-per-view. I'd pay.

Florian Hoyer

rocky is like karate kid, i never seemed to grasped whats it about xD i watch it and i go "meh" xD maybe cause i am rly not into fighting xD

Githerax

Also, George and Simone- those turtles of his are still alive and he recently posted a pic on Instagram of the now-near-50 year old Cuff and Link.

Githerax

Also also- Pauly being so pushy with his sister. Yes, he's doing it all wrong, but see, he's older, he sees that he's going to die alone and he hates his life. He sees Adrian's life going the same way and it breaks his heart. Maybe he'd be happier with a different job, maybe she'd be happier with a boyfriend, maybe maybe anything to get out of the dismal grave that is his life, and hers too. He loves her but he expresses it badly. Edit: Watched the rest, you got it. Some peoples' lives are crap inside and out, it's a hard place to get out of, if it's possible at all.

Jake Dinkel

I disagree with what some others have said on here. You need to watch 2, 3, 4 and then Creed 1 and 2. 5 and Rocky Balboa can be skipped.

Githerax

Sorry, again; this movie- sheesh. Look at 1:10:41- Years ago, I lived in that neighborhood. There was a cheesesteak kitchen on the corner. It took months to get used to the train running outside the bedroom window. Years after this movie, Rocky V was being shot in the same neighborhood and I watched the movie crew on my street outside my window there. It gets to me to see this movie so that's why I'm chiming in so much here :D

Guillermo Antonio Ricci Alvarez

There are 6 Rocky movies and 2 Creed until now, a third one is supposed to come out soon...also watch them all, they are all important as they contain something else each of them

Loosely based on the greatest heavyweight fighter of all time “Rocky Marciano “ Undefeated and undisputed world heavyweight world champion. He was a debt collector to in his early days, you paid up when Rocky knocked at your door. Videos of him on youtube. The guy who came into the ring before the fight was “Joe Frazier” who was heavyweight world champion and beat “Muhammad Ali” nice touch I thought In this film Rocky was always a heavyweight, you just misheard, the fight after him were two light weights

Githerax

I think she heard Rocky referred to as a "lightweight" in terms of him being underachieving, not having the heart to fight the fight. Understandable to mix it up with the weight categorization. Rocky weighed 190 lbs according to the announcer, which would put him closest to the 'heavyweight' category. 'Lightweight' was 130-135 lbs at the time.

Rule number 1 when watching a Sylvester Stallone movie: Subtitles! Always subtitles!

REDR58
>>77273384

I generally think they’d have a better time understanding some of these movies they watch with subtitles on.

REDR58
>>77260865

They probably are unaware but the reason Cruise gets to do all his own stunts because he’s a producer on those movies.

Per Simone's thing about Arnold and Stallone 'merging' in her mind, it reminded me of a funny story: Stallone wanted to be considered a peer to Schwartzenegger, so they went after similar roles and movies. Arnold saw the script for 'Stop or My Mom Will Shoot!' and thought it was 'really bad', but he pretended to be interested just to get Sylvester to jump at the role; Sylvester 'won', but later said it was "maybe one of the worst films in the entire solar system, including alien productions we’ve never seen" :D

Erik Lundmark

So glad you liked it, thanks you for sharing your first watch, I Really enjoyed that :-)

MacGuffinStuff

This movie is timeless, anyone I've ever been with or seen watching it for the first time may love it for myriad reasons but we love it. I boxed a little in the Army but I'm also a really big fan of old school boxing and there's a few things you guys missed lol, but that's okay. I do want to point out that "Smokin'" Joe Frazier was a real heavyweight champion (from Philadelphia) who had the cameo in the intro to the Balboa-Creed fight. He battled Muhammad Ali in three epic fights. Boxing has had some of the most cinematic rivalries of any sport. Stallone (deservedly) has poked fun at Schwarzenegger because Stallone has written and did direct (Rocky 3) several of his first movies, while Arnold was first a bodybuilder, then got his first real Hollywood role as Conan, which was perfect for him. Stallone also has writing credit on Rambo: First Blood, which I think you guys might also be surprised by. Also, Stallone still has the turtles 🤘

David Crabtree

The Rocky series is my favorite overall movie franchise from start to finish, including the 2 Creed films. I'm looking forward to the Rocky 2 reaction, that's my favorite of the franchise!

Not to mention, with all his years of training to do stunts, Cruise is a qualified stuntman at this point. He's done stunts (like the airplane stunt in "Ghost Protocol") that not even some others have tried.

Brian Harris

1-3 are great, although they lessen in quality just a touch each time. 4 is beefcake city, very cheesy. 5 is just a bad movie. 6 (AKA Rocky Balboa) is solid, sort of a spiritual successor to the original. And the Creed movies are both pretty great, although like with the original series, the first is better than the second. The great thing about the Rocky movies is that they are about a life. The life of a career, the life of a marriage, the life of a friendship, the life of a rivalry. Sylvester Stallone plays the same character for nearly fifty years, and we see him through everything, all the beauty and brutality of life. The best of these movies are not about boxing. The more about boxing they are, the weaker the films are.

I REALLY hope they watch and enjoy Rambo: First Blood! That's my favorite Stallone film after this.

JediLounger

You guys should for sure watch Mission Impossible. Cruise is nuts in many ways, but he’s also legit and does his own stunts.

JarHead0351

I am bias when it comes to Rocky & Sylvester Stallone, He & his brother Frank grew up around the block when they were in High School which I followed short time later - also was on the set of Rocky 3 at his 1st fight with Mr T - got tons of photos from that day - so Yea I love Rockys movies

JD Nevesytrof

This was the movie that made me finally subscribe here after a long time watching you guys on YouTube, I really hope you guys continue with the series. Stallone clearly loves his characters and his world and despite some inconsistencies in tone and quality as time goes on, the entire franchise is just wonderful.

Ruphus

This was one of my mother's favorite movies. She liked romances and her father was a boxer. She only liked the first four because of the romance and the boxing so if the romance is the part of the movie you enjoy I encourage you to watch the first four. I live in downtown Tulsa, OK. Stallone is currently filming here. If I get a pic of him I'll send it to you. No promises.
