What I think is interesting that one of the most motivational Rocky speeches come from his last film (and it was the worst, in my opinion). However, that scene is/was great.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587309093892894426.post-29693305653983570532013-08-13T10:54:34.778-07:002013-08-13T10:54:34.778-07:00I'd seen that as well.

I actual...Do you mean Rocky Balboa was the worst? <br /><br />I actually liked that more than II through V...nothing could touch the first, though.<br /><br />The Rambo flicks were violent, and then Stallone would always do an unnecessary pontification at the end where he rehashed what he'd spent the prior 90 minutes demonstrating (in between demonstrating various methods of ending human life).<br /><br />While I did think Tango & Cash has its moments, I thought they should have cast the roles in the other order (Stallone as the straight guy just did not work for me).<br /><br />He had a few surprisingly decent films in the 90's (Cliffhanger, Daylight, Copland, Get Carter), but sadly never learned that he lucked out on Rocky and was not much of a writer or director.<br /><br />He has a comedy coming out later in the year (Grudge Match) where he and DeNiro play aging boxers who get in the ring...looks like it may have potential...DiscConnectedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07013919800637508392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587309093892894426.post-89640172615224988272013-08-12T09:19:47.456-07:002013-08-12T09:19:47.456-07:00Funny you should ask...I believe Sly is pitching a...Funny you should ask...I believe Sly is pitching a crossover sequel called "Stop!

I think it was just too much violence for little ole me. <br /><br />However, I really did like Tango & Cash. I think that is the best Stallone film, aside from the first Rocky. Ironically, the worst Rocky film (the last) has one of the most motivational monologues in it.
