Rocky Balboa

I finally watched Rocky Balboa last night. And I liked it! There were even some scenes that made me cry like a baby. Of course I felt the usual, "What! Oh, no," feeling upon hearing that he was making Rocky 5...and then 6...and the latest, Rambo 3. But Rocky 6 is pretty decent in my book.

I am a huge Rocky fan. One and Four are my favorites. But I really like Six, too, after watching it last night. When I was a kid I had the biggest crush on Sylvester Stallone after watching Rambo. I remember I used to sneak and cut pictures of him out of my mom's Enquirer and put them in a photo album. It was strange watching him last night though. His skin and eyebrows looked alll weird.

I remember watching one of the Rocky movies with a guy friend a long, long time ago. I can't even remember which guy friend, but I remember him telling me how unreal the movie was. Boxers don't box like that. Rocky would never win, because boxing is based on scoring. And then he proceeded to tell me how it's scored and took away the magic of Rocky from me forever. Bastard.
