I don't know why but my footage stutters every now and then so I apologize. Something was amiss with the raw footage, I tried my best to edit around it!
Yeah man in Philly we just run the 4 wheelers and dirt bikes on the street it’s pretty cool it’s a documentary on UA-cam called the “12 o clock boys” you should tune in you might like it
@@StatusSymbol37 That sucks so much. Milwaukee has a Bronze Fonzie, makes absolutely no sense that it got taken down. Fictional Heroes are just as valid as historical ones. Motivation and inspiration is transcendent. 💖
@@Cyborganna very true it doesn’t make sense let well enough be just by his reaction to these movies it shows these characters mean something to people. And bronze Fonzie I’d actually love to see it I used to love that show!
Born & raised in Philly. The statue was at the top of the stairs @ the Philadelphia Museum of Art. It was taken down for a time, but after a loud, resounding protest, it was re-installed at the Art Museum at the bottom of the stairs. It is still in Philadelphia.
@@LupusLifestyle Totally agree! I mean even in the Wire he was solid, but he won me over when I started watching him in Friday Night Lights. There’s something very special about how he brings a character to life.
Those are literally the same turtles from the first Rocky movie - Stallone took them home after filming Pond sliders, the type of turtles those are, live around 30 years, although they can live up to 50 in ideal circumstances.
Regarding the thing about the number of rounds; 15 Rounds was how long title fights used to last, the 10 rounds against Dixon was because of it being a non title exhibition, and 12 rounds is the length of title fights today and how long the fight against Dixon would have been had the title been on the line.
The restaurant "Adrian's" is a real restaurant in South Philly called "Victor's" where the waitresses and waiters are all budding opera stars/students. They'll serve you, then stand on the stairs between the two levels and belt out an Opera aria or broadway song while you eat. It's truly incredible, and it was so cool seeing it in this movie!
I think this movie did a really good job of transitioning the franchise and giving it a modern look and feel, while still keeping true to the feel of the world and giving Rocky his time to shine. In a lot of ways I feel like it’s the movie that Rocky V was supposed to be
The spinoff that nobody saw coming. Very much on par with the first and last Rocky films. I knew that Apollo had a couple kids (boy and girl) that were in Rocky 2. Pre-release, I thought that Adonis was one of those kids. But as the child that nobody knew about was a big surprise. Loved the writing and direction by Ryan Coogler, who got the job for Marvel Studios' Black Panther after the film's success. B. Jordan gives a great performance with a good cast around him. The script, camera work, choreography for the fights, etc do not dissapoint. Stallone as Rocky just endures more and more. He was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in this movie. The 2nd time he'd ever been nominated for the role and won the Golden Globe for it. It ain't over till it's over. Wait till you see part 2.
I love love love how deeply connected you got with these characters in just a few weeks ❤️ seeing you this emotional about them and their stories is really heartwarming
The pounding of the bricks/wood is a 10 sec warning to the end of the round. They give them that to try to prevent punches after the bell. Plus it's also nice to know that they round is almost over and you just have 10 seconds left
In 1982 the rounds in a boxing match were shortened from 15 to 12. The reason being a Korean boxer who died in the ring and studies showed that the brain becomes more prone to damage after the 12th round. Most of Rocky's fights went 15 rounds because of the time period he fought where Creed's follows today's rules. Rocky's fight in the last movie went 10 rounds because it was an exhibition.
@@tragicpsycho3349 Rocky Balboa is one of the most iconic movie characters of all time, and for good reason. From his humble beginnings as a small-time boxer to his rise as a champion and beloved public figure, Rocky has captured the hearts of audiences around the world. There are many reasons why Rocky Balboa is the greatest movie character of all time, and here are just a few of them. Firstly, Rocky is a character that people can relate to. He's not perfect, and he's not always the hero. He's a flawed, complex individual who struggles with his own demons, just like the rest of us. But through it all, he perseveres and never gives up. He embodies the spirit of determination and hard work, and inspires us to believe that we too can achieve greatness if we put our minds to it. Secondly, Rocky is a character that transcends time and culture. Despite being created over 40 years ago, his story still resonates with audiences today. This is because his struggles and triumphs are universal themes that we can all relate to. Whether we're watching Rocky for the first time or the hundredth time, we can't help but feel inspired by his journey. Thirdly, Rocky is a character that represents the underdog. He's a working-class hero who defies the odds and proves that anyone can achieve their dreams with hard work and determination. This message is particularly relevant in today's world, where many people feel like they're facing insurmountable obstacles. Rocky shows us that we can overcome even the toughest challenges if we believe in ourselves and never give up. Lastly, Rocky is a character that has had a profound impact on popular culture. He's not just a movie character - he's a symbol of hope and inspiration that has inspired countless people around the world. From his iconic training montages to his memorable catchphrases, Rocky has become a cultural touchstone that will continue to endure for generations to come. In conclusion, Rocky Balboa is the greatest movie character of all time because he represents the best of humanity - determination, perseverance, and the belief that anyone can achieve greatness if they set their mind to it. He's a character that we can all relate to, and his message of hope and inspiration will continue to resonate with audiences for years to come.
I remember It initially bugging me upon my first viewing that Rocky lost their 3rd fight, but then quickly coming to the conclusion that it made complete sense due to how much love and respect he probably had for Apollo by that point. His heart could never fully be 'in it' for a full blown, knock down, drag out war like their initial encounters. NOT to say Apollo wouldn't have given him one phenomenal bout by any stretch. But that the landscape between the two - especially on Rocky's side of things - changed so much for the better. His respect for Apollo was ALWAYS there even when they fought back in the day... but throw in an almost best mate/brotherly love in to the mix... I LOVE seeing new fans get so involved and invested in these amazing characters I grew up with the same way I did. And the Creed movies have been such a great evolution of the Rocky legacy. Great movie and a great reaction as always. 🤙
It's also worth pointing out that we only get Rocky verbally answering that question for Adonis. Since we don't actually see the fight end, we'll never truly know if Rocky was telling the truth, or he just said what he thought Adonis wanted to hear.
I have to disagree. I think because of his profound respect and friendship with Apollo, he would always give everything he possibly had in a fight with Apollo. They were both great fighters. The best of the best, and that last fight behind closed doors just happened to go in Apollos favor. It could always go either way
@@CodyTalton Thats fair. 👍(And I DID also think similar myself for the longest time), but the lack of any major damage to Rocky, coming away with only a black eye, as well as being able to drive himself home, (and not need a hospital visit), says otherwise to me. Too much respect AND love there for it to ever be anywhere close to their original bouts.
This was probably the first boxing movie I’ve enjoyed since the original Rocky. This isn’t my favorite genre bc they tend to all follow the same script. There’s something refreshing about this one. It was just so grounded.
This to me is thee perfect boxing movie. It had everything. Drama, Action, Acting, Directing, Choreography, Cinematography. Stallone was stellar and Michael B proved his worth. This my fave of the whole Rocky series...well this and Rocky Balboa. I was in the theater crying, laughing and cheering like you. Love your reaction. God bless your mom bro, I'm happy she's still here and still strong.
Philly took a little criticism and it was somewhat deserved. While Rocky is a cinematic icon and the statue is tied to the city. Philly's actual hometown hero and actual Heavyweight Champion Joe Frazier didn't get a statue in his honor until after his death and petitions to honor him.
It often gets lost to people that a lot of the opponents Adonis fights are ACTUAL BOXERS in real life. For instance, Danny "Stuntman" Wheeler is played by Andre Ward, who is arguably a top 15 boxer all-time in his own right (denitiely top 20). 32-0 with 16 KOs. He's not a joke at ALL.
You basically nailed why this movie is the best of the Rocky franchise. Rocky story and Sly acting is just top notch in this, the feels are just throughout it all.
I saw this in the theaters and cried like a grown man during the last fight. This movie is a perfect transition from the Rocky movies. Feels like a Rocky movie but also a Creed movie if that makes sense.
Terrific film, pays homage but does enough to be its own thing. Your reaction never disappoints. I enjoy anyone who can convey emotion when the movie earns it
He was up before 10 but if you can’t protect yourself properly the ref will still stop the fight for your own safety.also that’s the best way to share headsphones on the sofa you have to get closer 😂
That statue is exactly where it's at in this movie. History of the statue: in front of the Original Spectrum in Philadelphia. Moved to the top of the steps the art museum in Philadelphia. Then moved right where you see that at.
In the time of Rocky 1-4, most World Championship fights were 15 rounds. In 1982, Duk Koo Kim of South Korea challenged Ray Mancini for the WBA lightweight title. The fight was competitive for 12 rounds, but Mancini knocked him out in the 14th round and the challenger never woke up. Kim died four days later. After that, they started shortening title fights to 12 rounds. The reason the Balboa-Dixon fight was 10 rounds is because it was an exhibition, not for the title.
Rocky could never get a break as far as losing people in his life and it all started with mickey in Rocky 3, Apollo Creed in Rocky 4 then Adrian in Rocky 6/Rocky Balboa even Duke and Paulie in creed it's crazy but now at the end of creed 2 Rocky's reconnecting with his son and getting to know his grandson that's a full circle moment
You know I don't think this movie gets the credits it deserves. This ONE. This was the one that paved the way for legacy sequels. I am convinced that this gave a sort of format for the rise of Cobra Kai and other legacy sequels. Who pale in comparison to Creed and as well to Cobra Kai.
The kid creed at the start of the film was fight his future opponent for creed 3 ?? 👀 (My thoughts) And in creed 3 there is no rocky so it will be interesting where they go with it
The Rocky "franchise" is something that really holds up perfectly even today, and the Creed movies continue it perfectly. The only "Rocky" I never bothered to watch again is Rocky V, and you totally don't need that with what Creed has become.
When Adonis said "owe" he meant Rocky was the champion and Ivan wanted to fight America's Champ, Rocky gave the fight to Apollo which he was killed and Rocky could have stopped the fight but didn't. And when Clubber beat him Apollo helped him get the belt back. Apollo proved loyal Rocky should do the same.
There wouldn't be a Creed without Rocky. I know the Creed movie is newer but you bring your love and admiration for Rocky to Creed. Creed alone doesn't have the legacy and history and would be just a good boxing movie. You are attached to Creed because of Rocky.
I'm thinking that the guy that owns Mickey's gim is that fighter that was giving him a hard time in the gim in Rocky 2 when he was helping mickey out that's who I think that is now I just now figure it out
Nah tommy was a bum, he didn’t wanna train him because he didn’t wanna be there to relive apollos death through his son, he still hasn’t gotten over guilt of not throwing in the towel when his dad died.
The timing of it is terrible If they could’ve timed it so that Apollo had an affair after he lost the title, you could maybe understand it better But if this all happened between Rocky IIII and Rocky IV that’s terrible Rocky had the total for three years before he fought clubber Although this movie is really well, acted it tarnishes the legacy of Apollo Creed
My Grandmother passed away from cancer when I was 13. It was the first time I had ever been alive to witness the death of a family member, it shook me so much. 3 years later my mother nearly died from blood loss, she was saved by the grace of GOD. The doctors even said that she was saved by a miracle, they kept trying to draw blood from her, and all they could get was water. I didn't know how serious it was, until my dad explained it to me.
That’s Phylicia Rashad playing his stepmother. He is the product of an extra marital affair. Both his parents a dead and she took him in as her own. She was not the original actress in the Rocky films.
I wasn't crazy about the Creed series, to me they just felt like weaker versions of the Rocky series, nothing really stands out on its own. I think there was a way of telling a good story without making it seem like a carbon copy. I'll watch Creed 3 but my expectations are not high at all.

23:25 - Sly credited working on this film as a way to move forward after Sage’s passing.
I’ve noticed a lot of reactors miss this fact but the first thing Mary Anne says to Adonis when she walks into his cell is “I’m sorry about your mom”
Look forward to CREED 2 : that movie could also be called "3 Fathers, 3 Sons". And be sure to wait for the very endscene!
gosh this movie is amazing. Creed III was a great conclusion to the trilogy

Sporino (played by Ritchie Coster) was the guy named Chechen who owned the dogs in The Dark Knight

Rocky's "failure" with Tommy Gunn is the reason why he didn't want to train Adonis!
Nah tommy was a bum, he didn’t wanna train him because he didn’t wanna be there to relive apollos death through his son, he still hasn’t gotten over guilt of not throwing in the towel when his dad died.
It’s been a great ride so far 1 more to go
The timing of it is terrible
If they could’ve timed it so that Apollo had an affair after he lost the title, you could maybe understand it better
But if this all happened between Rocky IIII and Rocky IV that’s terrible
Rocky had the total for three years before he fought clubber
Although this movie is really well, acted it tarnishes the legacy of Apollo Creed

The CLOUD!
That’s Phylicia Rashad playing his stepmother. He is the product of an extra marital affair. Both his parents a dead and she took him in as her own. She was not the original actress in the Rocky films.
Adonis was Apollo's son from an affair.
