I wonder why nobody ever told Stallone something like....hey you know this Paulie character is extremely unlikeable. Maybe give him like one redeeming quality in the first 3 movies? Or that in the first apartment scene with Adrienne, Rocky comes off as kinda rapey 😂. I always laugh watching younger generations of people, especially females do reactions to this movie when it comes to that scene lol
The end still shots in rocky movies are always a classic! So many stories....pro tips, sold his dog, butkus( proly named after the famous football player Dick Butkus), cuz he was broke and homeless. It's a True story retelling of the Ali tune up fight, before his rematch with Frazier for the world title! Ali fought Chuck Wepner and damn near got knocked out! Wrote the script in 2 weeks! Really a love story. Adrian is the sister in godfather!!😮 He was offered big money to sell the script, but not star in it. Stallone wouldn't do it. He eventually sold the script to ABC television. Henry winkler, his good friend, played The Fonz, on Happy Days. He found out ABC had the script. Happy Days was THE biggest show on TV. Henry went to the executives and said, if u don't give me the script, I leave the show. They gave it to him! He gave it back to Stallone. This movie won multiple Oscars, and even Ali got on stage with Stallone, when he was at the Oscars and said, "u stole this script from me!" In part 2, theres a few times when they actually hit each other pretty damn hard, and were pissed off at each other, and u can see it! He bought his dog back, after it became a hit! He wrote produced directed and choreographed most his rocky movies, and other movies he was in. He almost died in 4, because he purposely didn't choreograph his first 2 rounds. He wanted it to look like Drago and himself, were really feeling each other out, like real boxers. Drago(Dolph Lundgren) end up breaking his ribs, punctured a lung, and I think even his heart sac! Dolph has been also in his Expendable movies, and in real life has a couple of Masters/PhDs in engineering!😁😁 Drago wife, was actually married to Stallone!😮😮 They have beautiful daughters! Rizzo was in the first 2 godfather movies! A man named Irwin Winkler or Chartoff owns the rights to Rocky and always has. So Stallone only gets paid from them, as an actor writer director choreographer. The other guy has ALWAYS refused to do what's right, and sell the rights to Stallone, even though the jerk has made proly billions off of Rocky! Spider Rico, the first guy he fights here, works for him in Rocky Balboa or Creed. So does the girl that says, screw u creepo! The guys singing outside by the fire barrel in 1 and 2, Frank Stallone! In Rocky 3, bad guy was a former bouncer who won a TV tough man who! Went on to star in a long running TV show! Adrian is Talia Shire, a member of Hollywood royalty, the Coppola family! Francis Ford, Sophia and Nicholas Cage!😮😮😮!!! Drago and wife return in Creed 2!
Thank you, I loved the reaction!!! However, I don't think Rocky was yelling at Mickey because his house Stinks (though he's not happy about it), but because one, he's mad at Mickey for not helping him before and two, he scared... It takes a lot of guts to fight someone who you know is gonna hurt you. Mickey wants Rocky to "stay down" in the 14th round because he doesn't want Rocky to get hurt anymore, permanently damaged or killed, because fighters won't quit. And Apollo won the fight on a split decision. 3 judges score the fight. 2 out of 3 judges ruled for Apollo... Draws do happen, but the ring announcer would have said the match was a "Draw" instead of "Split Decision".
I definitely understand that Rocky feels Mickey betrayed him by giving his locker to another fighter. Also, I realized afterwards that Apollo won the fight (by a hair) and knew that regardless, he retained his championship. Thanks for the clarifications as I’m just starting my journey into the franchise!
_Mickey wants Rocky to "stay down" in the 14th round because he doesn't want Rocky_ _to get hurt anymore, permanently damaged or killed, because fighters won't quit._ A year+ late, but Mickey actually just wanted Rocky to stay down for at least an 8-count so Rocky would have extra time to rest and recover for the rest of the fight. It's a common tactic in boxing.
Imagine being a nobody (Stallone) who writes a movie by yourself in 1976 over 3 days and then the CITY OF PHILADELPHIA builds a statue of you on the site of your movie! And now you're considered a "Son of Philadelphia." That has to feel exceptionally accomplished, when you look back on your life
Stallone wrote this however the studios did not want him to play the role, eventually he got his way. That was also his own dog and turtles in the movie.
Fun fact: The name "The Italian Stalion" is from Stallone's very first movie. An adult movie... The man with the body of Adonis, also packs a 12 inch nail....
@@kai_masters LOL not the answer I had expected. I like him a lot in Rocky 5 and Rocky Balboa. The entire series is great, but some of the wisdom he tries to impart through media is downright beautiful
Oh My! This is not true at all! The Movie in question was originally named The Party at Kitty and Stud's. It was a soft core movie and Stallone's "performance" lived up to the name "soft" core. After the success of Rocky, the movie was re-released under the name "The Italian Stallion". John Holmes had no need to worry about any competition. 😉
Adjust for inflation, $40.55 (Rocky's winnings) would be $221.34 in today's money. Fun fact: The boxing scenes had to be shot in reverse order because they found it easier to remove the scar makeup and clean the actors up, then to add the makeup between rounds. So the last round was shot first and the opening round was shot last.
Imagine your resume as an actor saying, "Co-starred in The Godfather and Rocky franchises. If you've never heard of them, they are considered two of the greatest franchises in American cinema history".
Converse shoes was one of VERY FEW athletic options for running, boxing, or any kind of training. No choice. No one knew any better. THe athletic shoes you're thinking off hadn't been invented yet.
You have to watch Rocky II. Quite aside from the fact that it's my personal favourite, the two films are companion pieces. They're like The Godfather and the The Godfather part II. Very similar in tone (even though Stallone actually directed Rocky II rather than Avildsen), I kind of think of both films as a two part story. You've only seen half that story.
I love that for Rocky it didn’t matter that he lost the fight. He just wanted to prove to himself he’s not a nobody after being treated like one probably his whole life.
Re: Running in Converse shoes. Back then, they were just "sneakers". We were just a generation away from pressed trousers and leather-soled shoes on kids, so the choice was not between runners and trainers, but between shoes and sneakers.
I hope you do all the sequels. Also I don’t think him talking about his house stinking had anything to do with why he thought adrian or mick liking him. It was more the situation stinks. He doesn’t have nice things. He gets beat up for 40 bucks or less every 2 weeks and has to work for a loan shark. Hes lonely and has one friend who’s more times then not an asshole. His life kinda sucks.
@@kai_masters All we are saying is give Paulie a chance. He is crude and rude and racist and a drunk, but if you ever got in a street fight and needed someone to have your back, Paulie would be there. You'll see. Rocky and Adrian are among the great couples of all time. Their love for each other was real, and they were so good for each other. Adrian really bloomed, and did you notice a couple of times she talked like Rocky? When Rocky came home and she was waiting for him, he said, "Yo!" She stood up, climbed up to the top of the steps, and said, "Yo!" back. Another time she answered, "Absolutely." Please watch the sequels, all of them. Please ignore the inevitable, "You should skip so and so, it's not as good." You're the reactor, you'll make up your own mind, right? Looking forward to watching the Karate Kid and Cobra Kai stuff. SUBSCRIBED!
Adjusting for inflation... I don't have exact calculations (which I could get if I took the time to look), but let's say, that $40 is $400 in current economy, then yes it still is nothing compared to what you have to endure: a vicious beating on a regular basis to get that much cash. For Rocky, it pays for rent, raw eggs and tortoise chow.
Rocky is a small time club fighter who gets a chance of a lifetime. He got picked to face Apollo Creed for the world title. Rocky proved he was a great fighter by going the distance. Apollo could not knock him out. What was more important he won Adrian's heart which Is better than any title belt. This is my Mother's favorite franchise in history. I lost her in 2011.
I really liked this edit. Of course you can't show the whole thing and NOBODY is EVER completely happy with reaction edits, but I thought this was pretty crisp. It had a good flow.
You seem to forget that this was in 1976... Converse WERE the best sports shoes out there, even into the mid 1980's players in the NBA were wearing them. There were other brands around, such as NIKE, but either due to marketing and/or having similar or worse cushioning than Converse, they were not as popular. I'm 60 years old, and I think most of the kids in my high school wore Converse in that era...with some where KEDS, or cowboy boots...lol (Idaho).
Converse? It should be noteworthy that there weren't "running shoes" back then. We had a few options for 'sneakers' but they were all general athletic shoes. We had one pair and one dress shoe, that's it. Sometimes they were 'hand-me-downs'
Rocky is definitely one of the better films out there. When it came out, it got quite a few Oscar nominations, winning for Best Picture and Best Director (John G. Avildsen). Sylvester Stallone was nominated for Best Actor and Best Original Sceenplay, Talia Shire (Adrian) got one for Best Actress, Burt Young (Paulie) and Burgess Meredith (Mickey) each got one for Best Supporting Actor, while the song during the training montage, "Gonna Fly Now", was nominated for Best Original Song.
Honestly watch all of them. Rocky 1, 2, and rocky balboa (the 6th and final rocky movie) are more focused on his personal development and the other ones were made to continue the franchise and to make money mostly, so they’re good but they aren’t quite as story driven as the first 2 and the last one. You’ll get what I mean if you watch them all. Horrible explanation, but they’re all good.
A Philly reporter calculated a similar run in the second Rocky based on landmarks and recognizable buildings ---- Over 30 miles. To hit some of the scenes shown, he would have had to zig zag and even then the scenes would be out of the order that they would have been during a real run.
18:40 It is not about his house... it is about nobody gave a shit about him (even his trainer) and now everybody want something from him because they smell money and success.
Phil is taking a step back from the channel. You will still see him now and then but his full time job is very demanding so it was getting to be a bit much.
I saw this movie in 1976 when i was 6 years old.....my grandparents took me to see it. Even back then we all loved Paulie....he was never a "jerk". You people in 2023 are WAY too soft.
I don’t think it’s a matter of being soft. Paulie has a violent temper and abuses his sister. I don’t think that’s funny or acceptable but maybe things were different 50 years ago. Thanks for sharing your opinion and experience.
Split decision is NOT a tie. When fight goes entire 15 rounds, it goes to the judges to determine winner. There are 3 judges. If all 3 judges agree on who won, it's called a unanimous decision. If one judge disagrees, its called a split decision. In this case the winner is the one that the Two judges picked. Here Apollo was picked by 2 judges, Rocky by one..
Great reaction to an Oscar winning love story with a boxing backdrop! Enjoy the "Rocky" franchise BUT PLEASE - react to Stallone's 1981 MOST UNDERRATED COP MOVIE OF ALL TIME - "Nighthawks "! NYPD cop fighting terrorism on American soil 20 years before September 11, 2001.
Thanks for your comment. We initially tried to keep the screen up for the entire time but encountered copyright headaches, even while using watermarks to partially block the screen. We discovered that the current format works best for avoiding copyright so we stuck with it.
Aĺ Murray Ameican you'll love it me dalin ❤❤ Rocky is wonderful us Brits love rocky one of the worlds greatest 😂love yer heros watch John Thaw goodnight mr Tom ITV
Hello! Very nice Reaction Video! I hope you do the other Rocky Movies, because Part 2 is much more better than Part 1! Part 5 isn't so good but all the other Parts are definitely great Movies!
The sequel is here!

Fun fact: that's a tiger you HEAR in the intro, as they have a much more powerful roar than do lions
Its ok to not like Paulie right now. It only takes about 6 years to get to know him.
Look up Pauley, he was a real a$$ boxer in his time. Real life. Amazing.
I like how in Rocky 3 Apollo said "I aint got 6 years!" yet him and Duke warmed up to Paul at the end lol

It's a love story with a bit of boxing in it. And back in the day they fought 15 rounds then it was changed to 12
For championship bouts. Lesser matches were shorter even then.

How does an adult that watches this movie understand that?

Ralph maccio and Sylvester Stallone are italian iconic heroes 😅😮

Wow! That’s incredible that they shot the fight backwards! It must have been a challenge to stitch it all together afterwards.
@@kai_mastersThat's why the editors make the big bucks!
John Avildsen (director) and Bill Conti (composer) were the director and composer for both Rocky and Karate Kid.
I refer to them both as the underdog specialists lol
Notice how Rocky and Karate Kid 1 ended very similarly, with the end of the match/fight and a freeze frame to end the movie.
I didn’t notice but that’s a great catch!
The Adrian character was played by Talia Shire, who also was in the Godfather movies.
Imagine your resume as an actor saying, "Co-starred in The Godfather and Rocky franchises. If you've never heard of them, they are considered two of the greatest franchises in American cinema history".
Converse shoes was one of VERY FEW athletic options for running, boxing, or any kind of training. No choice. No one knew any better. THe athletic shoes you're thinking off hadn't been invented yet.
Fair enough. It’s hard to believe this movie is almost 50 years old! 😮
When I was a kid, shortly after fire was discovered, we used to call those shoes "tennis Shoes" or "tenny runners".
You have to watch Rocky II. Quite aside from the fact that it's my personal favourite, the two films are companion pieces. They're like The Godfather and the The Godfather part II. Very similar in tone (even though Stallone actually directed Rocky II rather than Avildsen), I kind of think of both films as a two part story. You've only seen half that story.
I might just have to check it out 😉
Perfectly put. They ARE companion pieces. Rocky II is also my favourite.
I also like Rocky 3 and while it's a completely different tone, I think we really get to see Adrian's arc complete as well
I love that for Rocky it didn’t matter that he lost the fight. He just wanted to prove to himself he’s not a nobody after being treated like one probably his whole life.
And it made a great premise for a rematch sequel!
40 bucks in 1976 was a lot of money.
I think it was around $200 or so. Still not enough for getting punched around :)
Today there is a Rocky statue on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Arts. 19:50
Wow! That’s very cool! 🤩
Re: Running in Converse shoes.
Back then, they were just "sneakers". We were just a generation away from pressed trousers and leather-soled shoes on kids, so the choice was not between runners and trainers, but between shoes and sneakers.
It was a different time then!

carrying on from some of the previous comments, they shot this movie in 28 days.

It's fun to watch the female reactors discover the secret about Rocky - it's actually a chick flick disguised as a Boxing Movie.
That was my impression too! I totally expected the movie to focus mostly on sports but it really surprised me 😮
youre pretty fun to watch movies with.. you should watch more movies.. know what im sayin? know what im sayin? know what im sayin?
Split decision is NOT a tie.

If one judge disagrees, its called a split decision. In this case the winner is the one that the Two judges picked. Here Apollo was picked by 2 judges, Rocky by one..
Thanks for the explanation! I have no previous knowledge of boxing so I assumed a split decision meant a tie and Apollo kept his title regardless.

Thanks for the comment. I realized that Rocky was dissatisfied with his life in general and that the apartment was just symbolic of that.
