Let's see, she was in Godfather, Godfather 2 and Rocky. That's 3 Oscar winners., but every other year. But she was in all the sequels to Godfather and Rocky. Which is about 7 sequels in total. IS she the only actress to be in all the sequels to two Oscar winning movies?
this is turning out to be a great movie so far haha rocky is a badass

Nicely done. She is one very few actresses to appear in 3 Best Picture winners.
I saw Rocky as a teen when it first came out. At the end, everyone in the theater gave the movie a standing ovation. It was spontaneous. No one started it slowly and everyone followed because they felt obliged to. Everyone just jumped up and cheered at the same time. A huge roar. At that point in my life, I was 14, I had never seen that happen at the end of a movie. I've only seen it twice since (ET, Stop Making Sense)
can we get a reply by renato canova? have you seen this movie before renato?

Renato here. I amore all the Rocky movies. My favorite foe of Rocky has to be Mr. T. In fact, during races if one of my runners running slowly - in my best Mr T voice - I tell them: "I pity the fool who doesn't run faster."

Wait til you get to Rocky 4. Two and 4 might be my favs.
Five is.... Different. Six aka "Rocky Balboa" is good.
I heard there's a new one coming out this year. Hope it's good.
Mr T was great as Clubber Lang. He basically played his TV persona from The A Team. Total awesomosity.
Punches for Rocky is like EPO for Kenyan. Both have lots, but not are really affected by them.
Rocky 4 is the best one. "If he dies...he dies". So I just googled this...there is a heavy metal band named "if he dies, he dies"

I didn't know that there was a new one coming out until I read your post so I looked it up.
Here is the trailer -

It's been about 90 minutes, has the fight started yet?
Here's some more trivia, what movie technology was developed for the running scene?

This is not what you are looking for as it was used much earlier - but the montage, specifically sports training montage - was used wonderfully in the movie.

It would have been useful for the Olympic marathon in 1960?
As well as being a good boxer, Rocky was also a talented ultra runner. On his long training run through Philly he ran 30.61 miles.

I doubt it... cameras are heavy
the tech may have existed before but Rocky brought it into its own in Hollywood
