Anyone find Rocky hilariously unwatchable?

    I loved them.

    The fight scenes weren't any good, that's true but i still loved the character. At least up to the third movie.

    Anybody notice that every one of his main opponents as well as him is a South Paw?

      It robbed Taxi Driver of an Oscar.

        From what I remember, only the God known as Clubber Lang was a southpaw. Apollo, Drago, and Tommy Gunn were all right-handed. Unless you mean the actual actors, I don't know about that.

        Wait, forgot about Tarver. Did he fight right-handed or southpaw in Rocky 6?

          Really? Well that's some bull****. I like Rocky, but Taxi Driver is an unquestionably better movie.

            I should have been clear. They all spend long stretches fighting out of the southpaw stance in their matches with Rocky. I am guessing it had something to do with angles and keeping Stallone in all of the shots.

              Rocky, Titanic, Avatar, and Chicago.....most overrated movies of the past 30-40 years.

                Don't remember that. I don't watch Rocky movies very often though, even if they're on.

                  Admittedly, I do. Just nothing after III.

                      Looks like many people don't like part 4 but I do. This scene and the soundtrack is bad ass.
