this one could be a killer of the rocky series. the story line looks good, but kinda hard to see a guy 50+ in the ring. i will be in attendance opening night, hopefully not dissapointed.

The only Rocky movie I have ever seen in theaters was Rocky IV. To this day, I still have not sat down and watched Rocky V from start to finish, although if you combine what I have seen it should be pretty much the whole movie. I agree with you stud. It is kind of hard to see a 50+ boxer come back and beat someone half his age. Rambo IV, which is in pre-production, makes more sense, but I'll probably end up seing them both. Is it me, or has it been a long time since Stallone came out with a good movie?

Stallone was 30 when he made the first Rocky so he'd be right at 60 now.

The first Rocky was excellent and deserved the Oscar it won. I never saw any of the others.

I just looked it up. Sly turned 60 last week.

I may be wrong, but wasn't George Foreman fighting in his 50's? Personally, as a fan of Rocky Movies, I can't wait.

Looks interesting, but man Stallone looks OLD!! :( I'll go see it just b/c I love all the other Rocky movies, well not V - but who liked V?

Quote from the actor playing Rocky Jr.

"I'm a Philadelphia businessman with, like, suits off the rack. Rocky's on his own; Adrian's passed away. My character's off working in corporate Philadelphia. Paulie, in the original script, had a girlfriend, and was still working at the meatpacking place, so Rocky was just on his own. He didn't have anybody around. He starts thinking about boxing again, and ESPN does this thing where they match up old fighters and new fighters in a computer to see who would win per stat. And they match up Rocky versus the current champion, and in the computer, Rocky wins. So there's all this speculation about what would happen if they fought. Here's a guy in his mid- to late fifties, and the other guy is in his prime. It's obvious that the current champion would win, not Rocky. It actually comes to a head when they set up an exhibition match to see who would win it. We shot many different endings."

No Yo Adrian! :(
