I was sold the moment I saw the teaser.  Looks like good, solid entertainment in a year that desperately needs some.

The trailer ALONE looked better than Rocky 5

It's getting mixed reviews, though.  People whose opinions I trust seem to like it, but I think a lot of critics are going to discount it on the fact alone that it is Rocky VI (lol rocky 6 sly is bankrupt lol).

I was under the impression that Rocky 6 retcons Rocky 5

No, not really, but I think a lot of people will just replace Rocky V with this one.

He fought a hick in the ghetto

Yeah, it was pretty bad.  I'm glad they got a real actor to play his son this time around, and one who isn't an obnoxious twat.  I think it was also good that they killed off...

Adrienne - I was so worried they'd retread that storyline for the billionth time.

I don't think that's a spoiler Willco. I swear I've seen the tombstone in a trailer or something.


I laughed.

I just think it's a good move.  Really, does anyone want to see...

This should be what apparently it is, a true swan song for the character and what it's like to try and prove you still have something when the odds are against you.

Rocky II + Rocky IV = Rocky VI: Adrienne's Revenge!

I actually didn't want to see it at first, but then I watched some of the newer trailers and started thinking about how much Rocky V was filled with letdowns and annoyances. Hopefully, I'm right and

Rocky dies in the ring, or shortly after the fight.  It would be a pretty decent ending to an underdog, and way more fitting than 'the original ending' to the Rocky series.

I'm watching it Thursday because the company Christmas dinner is tomorrow night.  I watched a bit of the Fighting Spirit / Ippo series a few weeks ago and I'm excited.

Instead of seeing the new Rocky, everyone should see James Bond again.

I've heard so many bad things about Rocky V throughout my life that I've been afraid to see it. I have yet to experience it.

Skip 5, Morphix.  Trust me.

So what was so bad about Rocky 5?

Sure it wasn't a great movie but I don't see why so many people hate it. 

Shit can't wait to see the new one tomorrow :D
