Compared to the Twilight Saga, I would have to agree. The Twilight movies featured fantastic acting, great storylines and genuine drama.
Rocky is all about the story and has the best ending.
You hear that it's a split decision but you don't clearly hear the result.
It trails off in the background as Rocky only cares about Adrian coming into the ring and other chaos is going on.
As Rocky hugs Adrian you can hear "Apollo Creed" announced as the winner as background Rocky music is blaring.
I'm sure most people left the theaters without knowing who won and had to find out form someone.

(go to 3:40 until the end)
You see Apollo cheer when the first judge picks him but you don't see him for the final judge and announcement. It just zooms in on Rocky.
Very artistic.
What I liked about Rocky II was Rocky trying to do endorsements and dealing with the fame but also the uncertain financial future.

All of the rocky movies are entertaining. Not sure why all the hate for Rocky 5. George Duke(sleazy Don Kingesque manager) is a great antagonist. Some of the best dialogue comes from this movie:
"Tommy, you're a real piece of garbage you know that. Rocky he's the real champ, you're just God d@mn joke. You should've left him on the streets where you found him."
[tommy punches paulie]
"Hey! You knock him down how bout tryin to knock me down"
"No no. In the ring. Tommy only fights in the ring."
"My ring's outside"
"Touch me and I'll sue. Go ahead punk, touch me and I'll sue"
"Sue me for what??"
"God D@mn, only in America."
Yeah exactly! That is one of my favorite Rocky moments. I don't understand why Rocky V gets sh!t on all the time. The only reason I can think of is the actor who plays Tommy Gun just plain sucks at acting. I've seen all the Rockys plenty of times, and they all have some level of cheesiness and bad acting in them.

The best Rocky movie in my opinion was "Somebody up there likes me" The Rocky Graziano story.
all the rocky movies are bad. so hard to watch.
Note Rocky Graziano's real full name was Thomas Rocco Barbella.
The character Sylvester Stallone played in his Rocky movies name was Rocky Balboa.
Rocco Barbella-Rocky Balboa
Coincidence?
so I say all the rocky movies are bad, and my posts get deleted? why?
