What's your favourite Rocky film? I think they all have certain merits, even Rocky 5. "You knocked him down, why don't you try knocking me down now?" And who do you think is the best opponent?

[drinksinbars]

for me the first one is the best, the fight between rocky and apollo is fucking awesome and he loses which is soo unexpected. i also think apollo was the best opponent, he had great charisma and their fights were always the best. drago is just ridiculous while mr t was pretty good. wont even mention the other two.

Ivan Drago - "I vill break you."

Best moment of all the Rocky films is when you see Drago taining and he's inexplicably running round a room in tiny white shorts with a spotlight on him, whilst scientists inject him with roids and nod sagely at each other. Meanwhile Rocky is lifting bags of stones and outrunning the KGB (following in a Trabant) in Siberia.

which one has dolph lundgren in it? I remember liking that one the best,

though compared to almost any other film, I hate all the rocky films quite badly.

Rocky 4, the best one.
He is Ivan "I will kill you" Drago

Commentator: 'Do you except the challenge of Rocky Balboa?'
Clubber Lang: 'No I do not except the challenge, because Balboa IS no challenge.'

Again, Clubber: 'No, I don't hate him, but I pity the fool.'

Mr T at his best.

4. I must break you.

[cerveza_fiesta]

4 it is then. What was the one where rocky lost? Was it 4 too?

[paladin]

that was the original rocky, no? losing to creed and then setting up a rematch at the end?

1 and 6.

I appreciate the merits of rocky 1 but i prefer boxing movies to romances, which is why I like 3 and 4 better. I still think Apollo was the best character, but the latter films were more action packed. Oh, and I hate adrian, why is she always trying to convince my mate rocky to hang up his gloves?

I had forgotten that, probably because they fight again and Rocky wins. Still, I should have remembered that.

I voted 6 only because it's the one freshest in my mind. I haven't seen the first two in a decade or so... I really should get around to doing something about that.

I would claim that 1 and 6... perhaps 2 aswell... have the quality of a great serious dramas. Good scripts, quality acting, a gripping story and they're entertaining. The rest are just entertaining.

As for Rocky 5 - like Terminator 3, Spiderman 3, Daredevil, Superman Returns and certain other motion pictures this is a film we do not speak of.

Undecided between 1 and 4 but decided 1. Though Ivan Draco is the best opponent:"I'll break you in two".

The quote is "I must break you."

[tiam]

I went for four because i like that the best even though 1 is probably a btter film per se. But the best quote is from 3 which makes me want to change my sig.

Reporter ' what are your predictions for the fight?'

Mr T '....PAIN'
