Reaction rating: 🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊 (dat's da max!). "Relentless" I think is the word you wanted, like Duke said "The man kept coming after you!" Some great lines in the outro, Dawn. My favorite: "It's his life that's made him that way!" Also loved how you expressed Rocky making you feel part of his team, like he's your friend. Reminds me of someone else... 😊. Great job editing, Scott! Can't wait to watch this again! Where is everyone???

Louis Marzullo

Uh, one wee quibble: You were a little hard on Adrian (big shock! 😄), especially that last line. But no worries, she will win you over just like Mick did. Also, thought Butkus would make the cut, either in the pet shop or the bathtub 😁 Oh well...

rude alf mcglesga

there wasn't a single gun or car chase in this iconic American movie...see,they can really do it when they're not lazy assed boring fakes...respect!

Dawn - Here's some great background on how Rocky II was made from the Cinema Shorthand Group page on Facebook:On this date in 1979, "Rocky II" was released. After the enormous success of the first "Rocky" in 1976, the producers were anxious to make a sequel. Sylvester Stallone again wrote the script, originally titled "Rocky II: Redemption", but John G. Avildsen declined to direct again because he was busy with pre-production on "Saturday Night Fever" (1977). Stallone wanted the job and waged as big a campaign as he had for the lead role in the previous film. United Artists executives were reluctant to give the actor the directing rein; however, producers Irwin Winkler and Robert Chartoff understood how much of the success of the first Rocky had come from Stallone's enormous input and lobbied hard to get him the job. By the way, not only did Avildsen eventually leave "Saturday Night Fever," but Stallone would ironically go on to write and direct the sequel, "Staying Alive" in 1983. As he had done with the original, Stallone incorporated biographical elements from his own life into Rocky's story for this film. In particular, Stallone used as a central plot point the concept that yesterday's heroes are quickly forgotten. In the film, this manifests itself in terms of people quickly forgetting about Rocky's exploits in the title fight. In reality, Stallone experienced a similar sense of being quickly forgotten after his two post-"Rocky" movies, "Paradise Alley" (1978) (Stallone's directorial debut) and "F.I.S.T." (1978), both of which underperformed at the box office. The story development of involving Rocky surprising Creed by switching to fighting right-handed was not in the original script and only came about because of an accident onset. While getting in shape for the film, Stallone ripped his left pectoral muscle during a bench pressing contest with bodybuilder Franco Columbu and needed surgery. Therefore, he could not fight with his left hand. When Rocky is training for the fight, he is sparring with a smaller quicker fighter. The sparring partner is played by real life former champion Roberto Durán. The film's ending fight sequence also posed a challenge because at the time Talia Shire was busy making the drama "Old Boyfriends" (1979) and couldn't be on the set. So Stallone came up with the idea of having her watch the fight from home because of the new baby. Adrian's scenes were actually filmed some months later, toward the end of the shoot.

Great stuff, especially about Roberto Duran! Have to go back & look at those scenes again now! Also reminded me of another Stallone movie that didn't do great box-office but is a fast-paced, enjoyable little thriller: "Nighthawks" with Billy Dee Williams & a young Rutger Hauer (younger even than Blade Runner!). Thanks, Mr. Harvey!
