    I seriously can't stand watching movies that have no guns or snakes in them. Even when it's boxing.

      This guy played Dipper was STAN SHAW, who also played the stuttering boxer in HARLEM NIGHTS.

          Here's your answer Iceman. I went to the movies last night and looked around the audience. The average age was about 17. These people have not seen the first five movies. Therefore the alternate history of the heavyweight title that those five movies follow need not be followed in this movie. It's actually more important that the movie be consistent with actual history (Tyson was in the movie), than with Rocky I & II, since the primary viewing audience is ignorant of the latter.

              He was the slow guy in The Great Santini also and is a good actor.

                I'd hate to know what you do to your dog under other circumstances! You do know that this is wrong, right? LOL.

                We could all sit and pick holes in all of the Rocky movies, but they are only fictional movies, therefore, there are bound to be flaws. They are still very good, entertaining movies.

                  Stan Shaw co-starred with Dennis Quaid in 1983's "Tough Enough"

                      I think the biggest thing that bothered me was Sly's reaction to when he got hit with the jab
