RIP Carl Weathers
-
Absolutely worth watching the entire Rocky Franchise. Do NOT skip any. You will love Rocky more and more with each film!!!
-
People are always surprised. Rocky is a love story with boxing in it not the other way around. At the end he is satisfied with how he did and that's all that matters to him. He is completely focused on finding Adrian and does not pay attention to the result of the fight at all. Such amazing writing and it deserved best picture.
-
Rocky 2 for me is one of the most inspirational movies of all time and the best one of them all and they were all good.
-
There are 6 Rockys total. They are all absolutely worth watching. This is my absolute favorite original series of all time. I've watched every reaction to it and still get emotional with the reactors because they are that good. Great reaction to the first Rocky. You've earned a subscriber! β€

Don't leave us hanging. Get to part 2. It's even better.

Carl Weathers was a natural athlete. In his younger days he was active in boxing, judo, gymnastics, wrestling, soccer and football. He played in college and played 2 seasons of pro football.. 1 season for the Raiders, and 1 season in the CFL before becoming a full time actor.

Love the fact that you love this movie, The point of this movie was not for Rocky to Win, But for Rocky to prove to his doubters and haters that he can "Go the Distance", To prove that he isn't a Nobody. We all have that "Rocky Mentality" when it comes to our lives, to show that we are more than what people view us as, that's why this movie is timeless and resonates with so many people. This movie for all the times I watched it, I always shed a tear during the fight. Truly a classic and Inspiring movie and one of the best sports movies of all time!!

"Hey, where's your hat?" gets me every single time.
-
"And now they're cool again?" "Yeah, I don't know how that works.." It works because Paulie is shameless and Rocky doesn't doesn't have a resentful bone in his body. Salt of the earth.
-
Iβm kind of amazed at the number of people who are all into the sequels. I saw Rocky in the theatre and went back at least ten more times. I was thirteen and nothing else in my life was so motivating and comforting. Itβs the best underdog love story ever made. I saw each of the sequels once when they were released but never again. For me, this is the story of Rocky and is the best love story ever made! Enjoyed your reactions π

Do what Rocky did. Go the Distance. Rocky 1 thru 5 then Rocky Balboa. THEN do the Creed franchise. You'll be glad you took the journey!
-
The whole Rocky series is great. It also makes the Creed series much more rewarding when you know the backstory.
-
It was SO exciting to see this in the big theater when it first came out, during all the activities in the country based around the Bicentennial in 1976. It was the first time I saw an entire audience stand up when it ended, clapping and cheering, as if everyone was at a live concert. People walked out of the theater, practically dancing, hugging each other, everyone full of smiles and laughter. It was obvious that it was a massive hit, that the positive energy and excitement were something everyone needed and wanted at that moment.
-
The whole point of this initial installment of the franchise, that Rocky reached his potential and gave it all he had, and that in the end it didn't really matter as long as he lived up to his potential and found the love of his life, was lost in the preceding films. It DIDN'T matter whether he won or lost, but that he gave it his best and got the best of his opponent. That's where self pride resides.
-
Rocky Balboa is the greatest movie character of all time. Go the distance and watch emβ all Rocky 1-5 Rocky Balboa (aka 6) Creed 1-3
-
Rocky really isn't a boxing movie, it is about life and over coming adversity along the way. In my opinion Rocky 2 is my favorite.
-
Born and raised in Philly. Rocky franchise is definitely worth the watch!! It's really a love story with boxing. They get better and better then after Rocky Balboa is CREED. There fantastic and all tie in together. New here and just subbed and I bet the pretty lady will be crying and love this franchise by the end of Rocky 2. β€

That was the great thing about Gazzo, he was a good friend to Rocky. Looked out for him.
