    • Hard to watch with you all, especially the lady with long black hair, saying sexist and classist stuff about the protagonist for the whole movie. As if it's 50/50 odds there is something dangerous about him, or it's "creepy" for him to chat with the shy woman he has a crush, who obviously regards him as a nice person and says things like "goodnight rocky" to him? What if he never flirted with her or put himself out there? I mean it's just a movie, but what would you do in his shoes?

    • @@IaloneAmTHEChoppedONE - i dont think Rocky ever became "the authority" in boxing becuz he was always the underdog. And even tho the films contained some iconic love story elements, i think they were mainly about Rocky's heart and his journey of change into a better boxer in the ring but especially a better man outside of it. also i never saw Rocky's character as a "rebel" at all. What made the Rocky franchise great, imo was his enduring creed (no pun intended) that no matter how hard life gets, never stay down, always give everything you have...in other words, go the distance.

  • As a native Philadelphian, Rocky Balboa is basically a local god. Every morning, the people congregate to the feet of the Rocky steps and pay tribute with incense and libations of raw eggs. On the solstice, we sacrifice a chicken in His Glorious Name, and children near and far run across the city in leaping bounds of festive merriment. On special moons, the great god Sly himself graces the city with his presence, and flocks of Philly Fanatics ride the winds up in the sky to the collective chants of "Yo Adrian! Yo Adrian!" that ring out to the heavens until the setting of the sun. It is glorious.

  • Paulie is one of the most misunderstood characters in cinematic history. Also happens to be one of my favourites. There's a photo of him in a naval officers uniform in their house - the implication is that his and Adrian's parents died while she was young and he gave up a successful career in the navy to look after her. This led to the bitter resentful man you see now who never achieved what he wanted to in life. It's also a testament to Rocky's character that he knows Paulie is at heart a good man, and keeps him around despite his failings.

  • The making of Rocky is itself a Rocky story! Sly Stallone had pitched this movie to the biggest film studios in America and they all said no, until MGM took that leap of faith and gave Sly his shot. And thank god they did because this film went on to win 5 Oscars, INCLUDING BEST PICTURE! This movie also had an extreme impact on moviemaking itself because the camera crew for Rocky actually invented the steady camera for the movie. The long side shot for when Rocky is running full sprint on docks for the training sequence was the first use ever of a steady camera. Also Fun Fact: Rocky’s payday from the fight of $150,000 is today worth just over $814,000!!!

  • Fun fact: Stallone's father is the bell man in the end fight. When Adrian and Rocky trade I love you, you hear the final judges vote and declaration of Creed as the winner in the background. Star Wars and Rocky were released 6 months apart. Star Wars impact on film is self-explanatory. Rocky saw the innovation of the Steady Cam. Before cameras were so large they had to be mounted on a rail system or a vehicle. This is why you have the classic stair and ring scenes because the camera man was able to get in close or move with the actors. The camera man is still innovating today. When you see these odd camera angles and cameras on zip lines at sporting events or any event, that is his company.

There was a nice little buzz about the film going around and within a pretty short time it seemed like everyone was going to see it. I think the small production budget gave it a grittier, more realistic edge that worked well with the story. I love that it still has the same effect on people seeing it now for the first time. By the way, Stallone still has his two turtles 'Cuff' and 'Link' from the movie and they're huge now.

Rocky saw that (in my view) and was willing to let it be, after all he himself was suffering and tempted to loose his hope because of his own hardships. Rocky, Adrian and Paulie are a family that rose itself with that opportunity Apollo's showned. This was one of the most deserving Oscar's in history.

  • I love, love this movie. The victory for Creed is almost a sidenote at the end, because the conflict of the movie was Rocky fighting and winning a battle with himself, for his own self-respect, for the value of knowing he didn't give up, that he kept moving forward, even when everyone thought he was a joke and he maybe believed it himself at the start. I think that's why it reasonates with people. And he found the one person who never thought that! That's why he's shouting Adrian at the end, not even paying attention to the the judges decision. It's their victory together whoever the winner of the fight was. It's beautiful!

  • This was the first major film to use the *Steadicam* which was a new invention which made steady shots without the use of a dolly track. Instead, the operator would carry the camera, and, with some weight distribution apparatus, could give smooth, non-shaky handheld shots. Case in point: following Stallone up the steps. The Steadicam was also used to film bump-free footage of the forest whizzing by as background footage of the speeder bike chase in Return Of The Jedi.

  • I was in my mid-twenties when this film was first released in 1976. I found it very easy to root for Rocky in this film. He was honest, likable, a loyal friend. He was also very undisciplined when it came to boxing,, treating it more as another hustle.. until Mickey started training him. The group's reaction to Rocky's initial interacting with the promoter was spot on. There is a huge gap between fighting other club fighters and taking on the Heavyweight Champ! I also want to point out that his night before the fight assessment of victory over Creed was very real and believable as well. Going the distance was Rocky's victory! So glad Sylvester Stallone chose not to go "hollywood" on us. By the way, this film was inspired by a fight between Muhammad Al and Chuck "the Bayonne bleeder" Wepner. Good job, folks 😎

  • I really wish so many reactors would stop projecting so much in their reactions. The date with Adrian in particular is just so ridiculous. Adrian is not incapable of saying no to Rocky the whole time. Just because he stopped her from opening the door once, doesn't mean that if she had said "Let me go." he would have held her against her will and forced himself on her. She was extremely shy and insecure. Her finally having it out with Paulie highlights that fact. She was closing herself off because she thought so little of herself. Rocky told her he thought she had pretty eyes and her response was, "Don't tease me." He even asked for consent to kiss her and you act like he is assaulting her.

I'm like Adrian and I've only started dating *this year* in my late 20s because of feeling the same. Someone being persistent as Rocky would've spared me years of doubting myself. I'm happy there are people out there who know Rocky would've respected a rejection, but Adrian being uncomfortable ≠ unwilling.

    • @@Artistikk The problem is you're speaking in generalities. In this specific case the reason Adrian wanted to go was against her own interests. If she really wanted to, she would've answered in the affirmative when Rocky asked if she didn't like him or the room or any of that. She would've said, "If you continue I'll scream" at the door. The shyest women still have self-preservation instincts. In actuality Adrian wanted to and Rocky did as he saw best, period. Besides all that these are shortcuts a movie takes to get around something like a character's shyness that someone in real life actually courting another person would have to be a little more patient about or cut their losses on. So I feel like it's both ignoring the specifics of what we've seen of these two to this point and fundamentally misunderstanding how plot momentum works to get so up in arms about that scene.

This series a bible to me, I even lost 54 lbs when Creed 1 came out (I was in my 40s and was getting out of shape and belly getting bigger LOL) After seeing Creed (and rewatching Rocky 1,2,3,4,5,and 6) I got back in shape.

Saw my first Rocky movie on tv in 1982, I was 11 and was hooked....beyond belief. So extreme excited when me and my cousin watched Rocky III in the theaters. I remember it like it was an hour ago. When you get to the other movies you'll get it.. It's about what you can over come in life.

  • the reason why gozzo, paulie, mickey want to be a part of it, even though everyone is coming to it from a different pov is because these are people that are living lives of quiet desperation and this is their shot of doing something of note. Rocky gets this opportunity and to some extent, this opportunity is able to lift people up. Gozzo is no doubt a piece of shit, even he realizes it and gives rocky training money. This may be the one good deed he can look back on in his life.

He's not the first non-fighter to be inducted but it's awesome nonetheless that a fictional character is represented in something that big.

    • Its not just them, their first date definitely felt rapey towards the end for me. He slowly begins cornering her, invading her space, and the fact that she might be feeling trapped, alone in his house FOR THE FIRST TIME, and she could be too shy to say no. All im saying is it did not feel or look romantic at all, sure all their interactions after that scene can be seen as cute but that initial scene is a tough watch for sure.

  • The way it goes against the trope - in fact MANY tropes (a friendly loanshark? lol) - is the most 70s thing about it. It's a totally 70s movie (realism), with a 70s ending (he loses)...but with a Hollywood love story ending weaved into it!Which, in 1976, was actually going AGAINST the grain! That's the key! It made it like an old throwback. In 1976, "Rocky" had fierce competition as far as "history of cinema" type stuff: "Network" - fantastic movie, mindblowing, groundbreaking, influential, iconic,. "Taxi Driver", same thing. "All The President's Men", ditto. The cinematography and the acting in those movies are absolute top level. These are towering titles in the history of film. But those movies are all bummers! Just like most of the great 60s and 70s movies (and some 80s): they have bummer endings that depress or disturb you for weeks! (ever see "The Deer Hunter"? Bring a hanky!) "Rocky" gave a happy Hollywood ending, which was a bellweather for the next year, with "Star Wars", another throwback, undoing the intellectual sci-fi that had pervaded since "2001". And the success of that pretty much put an end to all that hard boiled 70's realism.....and it's been downhill ever since! lol. (GREAT REACTION!!)

  • After multiple watches of this movie I noticed that the scenes before the first date apartment scene were all there to show Rocky's empathetic side. So when the apartment scene happens, I longer thought he was as creepy because I knew a lot about him. It definitely was a bit forceful but I guess he thought he needed to be because she was so shy. That wouldn't fly if it were two different people but Rocky and Andrianne were made for each other.
