How can 4 not be the best? Rocky stopped the cold war for **** sake! "If you can change and I can change...we all can change!" **** like that would have prevented world war 2.
The cameos from tyson and dibella, merchant, kellerman etc. were stupid.. rocky is supposed to take place in an alternate timeline, what the **** was tyson doing while rocky was fighting a n 80 foot russian in the russians second pro fight(killing a former world champ in his first)? What was Tommy Morrison doing while his twin Tommy Gunn, then world champion, lost a street brawl to Rocky?
Rocky 1 is boring imo. Too much of romance in it, and an antic climactic finish for my liking. I like number 2 the best. I used to like number 4 the best, only I've seen that a million times.
RockyIV came out in 85/86, so Tyson was not a top 10 contender then, let alone THE Champ. Anyway we saw what happens when Rocky fights Tys... sorry Lang, three years before Tyson was even known Morrison was a novice when he filmed RockyV, of course it could be argued he was always a novice!:yep As for the alternate timeline thing, well if you watch Rocky (or maybe II) you see pre Creed fight, Smokin' Joe was introduced and Apollo mention to Joe that they need to fight next...
