new rocky movie
#1
Anyone else see the new Rocky movie yet? I watched it last night online, it was great. I really liked it

Deffinately worth seeing in the theater
#2
I haven't seen any Rocky movie at all.
#3
I am really not excited to see it. I will wait till it comes out on DVD.

I guess its like seeing Basic Instinct 2 (which I didn't waste my time seeing) where the main character is like 75 years older than in the original one. It just loses something.

nah they didnt try to make it a comeback or say he was young

the whole premise of the movie is rocky is getting older and he feels like life is passing him by, the only great thing he did was when he was younger, kinda like a midlife crisis thing

they played to the fact that he was old in the movie, it really works well

there have been lots of real boxers who have came out of retirement when they were older for a few more fights

OK, so if they recognize that he's old and play on that then I guess I'll have to give it a try.
