Who CAN'T watch a new Rocky movie. I mean...it's Rocky. They could make ten Rocky's and I'd still watch 'em.

Can anyone see the market stradegy here? Stallone has set it up perfectly, its a win win situation. Everybody has their doubts about this movie so their gonna see this movie with a kinda neutral mood. If they don't enjoy it, then they'll have just confirmed their first prediction, but if its good then they'll be stunned.

It's always good to go see a movie you know nothing about its quality because there never much of a let down. If this rocky is good then Stallone has also set up a good reputation for the new rambo.

I heard a rumour from somewhere that when Stallone started this project he was so excited to be back, but now that he's seen the finished product he wish he had left it alone. I can't remember where I heard it, or if I even heard it at all, I could be wrong.

I curious to see exactly how this pans out. Personally, I liked the first Rocky and I've never paid any attention to the sequels. I remember seeing Rocky III on late night TV one night and I thought it was pretty bad. But there are so many different ways to go with this, picking the series up twenty years later. We're lucky he did choose to play it out in real time instead of Stallone trying to play a thirty year old boxer in his sixties.

It could be a good movie, very dramatic and such, but it could also go horribly wrong. So we're just going to have to wait and see what happens. I think Stallone could've come up with a better title than Rocky Balboa though. Even Rocky VI I would have prefered, but who am I to complain?
