WHAM! 3 years 9 months ago Posts: 323	Oh my GOD. DON'T even get me started on how much I love 'Rocky'. Though I think the only ones worth watching are 1 and 2. The original was filmed like six blocks from my house. : D

Saying that they don't like boxing movies, ect. And I pretend to strangle them.

I was just a kid and had become addicted to the Rocky series. I went and, with my own money, purchased Rocky 5... All I can say is Stallone should refund me my money. It ruined the entire thing for me. Thankfully he came out with Rocky Balboa and redeemed himself, but unfortunately 5 is still considered part of the series. Rocky 5 was much better with the original ending. Rocky dies. He collapses outside of the gym. When the camera pans up in the theatrical version, thats the edit. The studio didn't want it to end like that. But I think it would have made for a better ending. While I definitely agree that the ending would have been better if he had died, my main problem is with Tommy Morrison! The dude was terrible. It just didn't feel like a Rocky movie.

bassman21 3 years 9 months ago Posts: 4553	I thought Rocky V was a good movie. Yes it was a much different movie than the others, but it was still good. I agree Morrison terrible, but he was a boxer, not an actor. Stallone has stated that he wished he had never done Rocky V. I found that a little surprising being his son Sage played a major part in it. Rocky Balboa was way too depressing for me. I didn't like that Adrian died. I also didn't like how all the brain injuries he had in Rocky V just disappeared.

I actually enjoyed the 1981 version, so with some modern day sprucing up and a super over-hyped Kracken scene that promised to be badass as all fuck, I had high expectations. Needless to say, they were savagely beaten with a sledgehammer. Damn damn DAMN that lame ass assfest of a movie... IN 100% AGREEMENT HERE....I too, had very high hopes for the "Clash of the Titans" remake (as I grew up watching the original & loved it) but couldn't have possibly been more disappointed. To add insult to injury, since the film was a box-office success....they are actually making a sequel facepalm.

I thought Inception was awesome, I can see how you could have this opinion as the psychological technobabble was kind of confusing but trust me; if you listen & pay attention.....you won't be disappointed. (even with that whiny assclown DiCaprio in the lead)
