Carl weathers has always been the criminally underrated second man to the movie hero. He deserved his own platform a long time ago. I hope as well that Carl knows he always gave much beloved characters, not only Creed.
Carl Weathers was tailor-made for the role of Apollo Creed. I heard that at one time, they wanted Ken Norton for the part. Frankly, I'm so glad that they stuck with Weathers, who's such a great actor in all of the "Rocky" films. This was a great tribute. Long live Apollo Creed!
@@slau330 as rocky said in rocky 1 when the bartender called Apollo a clown, "that guy took his chance and now hes the champ, what chance you ever take"... only bum i see is your sorry ass...
@@3912James I would love to see an apollo origins story ! Since creed was such a hit it's time! The rocky universe is as vital as it was 40 years ago. The other thing about rocky is it's a movie u watch with family. My parents went on their first date to see rocky. When I met my future husband in college we had a rocky marathon shortly after we met. Now my husband is gonna watch it with our son. This is as generational a movie as star wars only creed ko's the new trilogies.
Dearest Angie, i can't resist telling you.... i wish you would reveal your face. While it's not about me.... Why is always those of us with thee most heartfelt comments who prefer to remain unseen?. ♠️THE VANITY ADDICT♠️
Because in my humble opinion this is what life is about to friends become so close so competitive they loved each other so much and they wanted each other to be their best the best of everything it's okay because I cry too
I don't know if orphaned children who are up for adoption are already named or keep their original name ( perhaps it wouldn't matter with newborns or really young children who aren't old enough to respond to someone calling their name). If you end up adopting a girl who is young enough for you to name ( You already have a son... that kid will benefit big time by having a younger sister so he can learn to respect her as well as get down with all her friends lol) If you end up adopting a girl, without a doubt you have to name her......ADRIAN!!!!! Bwahahaha!!! Apollo and Adrian, your kids would be instantly popular at any high school.
I love all the rockys ,did you know rocky 1 was set as a love story set around boxing ,in rocky 1 theres only 12 minutes of actual boxing in the whole movie 👊👊
The Rocky Franchise are my favorite movies of all time…thanks to the person who put this together… I loved Apollo’s character…so much as i child when i first watched Rocky 4 i cried when Apollo died…loved that character so much i plan to name my son Apollo after him. I hope i dont seem crazy if i do who cares…Lol
No matter how many times you watch these films and know it word for word they never lose that magic to still entertain you. That’s the sign of a true classic movie. Modern filmmakers need to learn from these films that it’s not about the special effects but the actors. If you don’t believe in the actions of the actors the film means nothing.
9:15 that setup is so real. Most boxers can't even do it. Carl Weathers was acting so well, he seemed to really know how to box. It's not easy to move like that and look that good doing it.
Loved Apollo Creed. Best character in the series and his fighting style was so smooth and ruthless at the same time. I don’t know who taught Carl Wearhers to box like that but it was gorgeous. The graceful movement, the sudden powerful jabs, the ruthless combinations… you could buy the fact that Creed is the greatest.
Im too freaking old to be crying like this. That was absolutely awesome. My favorite part, and this speaks to Stallone and writer's greatness, was the detail of the story, in particular when Apollo lost in the 2nd movie. I recall George Foreman living the ring after the loss to Ali in " The Rumble." The look on his face was THE same one on Apollo's face at the end of the 2nd movie. I've been a fan of this franchise since 1977. It never disappoints. The tribute to Mickey ( Burgess Meredith) was amazing. This one was better with the "Creed" movie tie-ins. Only one other tv show or movie has ever brought this kind of emotion out of me and that was "Six Feet Under." It was so real. This whole "Rocky" thing feels like we're seeing it all through "uncle Rocky's" eyes. That poor bastard. Lost the two men who meant the most to him, Mickey and Apollo, then his wife, and he son moves away. We say we watch movies to escape, but that's as real as it gets. Again, this was awesome. There's one more movie left. Rocky touched Donnie's glove at the end of "Creed II." We all know what's next. Wow.
Apollo Creed in Rocky 2 & 3 was easily my favorite character. Not only did he have the perfect build for the character, but his acting chops completely sold it. Everything about him felt so believable it was insane. In my honest opinion, he is the closest thing to a Shakespearean character during this era of film.
That was a awesome tribute to Carl Weathers as Apollo Creed cause he played that role so Fantastic and with style. I love how he kept taunting Rocky in both movies to fight him for the title. Thanks for the video.🤓👍
Damn!! One of the finest series of tribute videos, OF ANY KIND, fictional characters or not, that I have ever seen. Period. End of story. Mickey. Tony. And whoever comes in future tributes. Deadasjuliuscaesar, you've done these characters proud! Please keep up the good work!!
@@realdealnealcrook8940 he also had some big roles in 80s as well besides Rocky in 76 and Rocky 2 in 79 he was in Rocky 3 in 82, Rocky 4 in 85, Predator in 87 and Action Jackson in 88.
THAT was BEAUTIFULLY DONE! As a huge fan of Rocky growing up, that was a wonderful compilation. Bravo! Carl Weathers just passed on. Bless him and his. Keep punching Apollo!
Carl is a very good actor but he was underestimated. Apollo was one of the most successful works he played. I really like Carl. Whoever did this would deserve to see Carl too!
Although Carl was a good actor , i in NO WAY feel that he carried the 1st 2 films WHATSOEVER as Stallone actually wrote them . I also do not think he was a vastly under rated actor as his previous films and any he was involved w after Rocky sucked ass for proof .
I disagree. ROCKY was an ensemble cast that all contributed significantly. Sylvester Stallone, Carl Weathers, Burgess Meredith, Talia Shire and Burt Young. Take any of them out of the film and it would've fallen apart. 5 exceptional actors in one of, if not, the best film ever made.
ROCKY was an a absolutely brilliant film,...and Carl weathers was perfect as the brash , cocky and over confident champ Apollo creed,...films of the 1970s had a gritty realism, that sadly lack in modern films,...
I'm definitely a true Rocky fan and I love this tribute! I'm 50 yrs old and own every Rocky and Creed movie. Been watching them since 1976 when Mom and Dad went to the movie theaters to see it and left me at my grandparents. Never again! Rocky inspired my life!
Sylvester Stallone may have been the star of the Rocky movies as Rocky Balboa, but Carl Weathers was just as vital in the legendary franchise as Apollo Creed in the process:-)!!!!
@@gary9182 You're entitled to your opinion Gary because "an opinion is like a nose" in which everybody has one right???? 🙂🙃🙂🙃!!!! But you have to think Rocky had to fight Apollo twice (in "Rocky" and "Rocky II") in order to beat Apollo to win the world heavyweight title along with the fact Apollo "came to Rocky's rescue" in "Rocky III" after Rocky lost the crown to Clubber Lang (Mr. T) the first time around and Mickey passing away to train him. As a result, Rocky gained "The Eye of the Tiger" back during training for the rematch and defeated Clubber to regain the heavyweight crown courtesy of Apollo (along with Apollo's faithful trainer Duke 🙃🙂🙃🙂!!!!). Regrettably, Ivan Drago killed Apollo in "Rocky IV". But luckily, Rocky avenged Apollo's demise by kicking Drago's sorry ass in Drago's backyard of Russia 🤣😂🤣😂!!!! Although Apollo's physical structure no longer exist throughout the Rocky movies, if it hadn't been for Apollo's passing in "Rocky IV" his illegitimate son's (Adonis Creed as portrayed by Michael B. Jordan) story probably never would've been told in "Creed" and "Creed II". No doubt Sylvester Stallone is the ultimate star of the Rocky movies (and maybe the Creed movies as well), but it can't be denied how Carl Weathers' influence on both franchises are significant and valid as a whole 🙃🙂🙃🙂!!!!
Still Not as Vital period. Your opinion is your opinion and you are entitled to it. The movie isn't called Rocky and Creed it's called Rocky. Everything you said has some truth to it but the movie plain and simple was about the man's struggle not about who or what he struggled against. If you think Creed is just as Vital as Rocky than you must believe Pauly and Adrian are as well. The fact is Rocky Sylvester Stallone is the most vital role to the franchise
@@gary9182 I see we're going to have to "agree to disagree" on this subject Gary 🤣😂🤣😂!!!! Like we both agree on, Sylvester Stallone is without a shadow of a doubt the ultimate star of the Rocky (and maybe Creed) movies. The movies are about the trials and tribulations of the man from Philly (like myself 🙃🙂🙃🙂!!!!) who overcame them all while becoming the greatest underdog in the history of sports movies which is why (at least the first six anyway 🤣😂🤣😂!!!!) the movies are called "Rocky" and NOT "Creed" like you mentioned in your return message. But Carl Weathers played a great supporting role (along with Talia Shire, Burt Young, Burgess Meredith, and Tony Burton) in the first four Rocky movies as an adversary in "Rocky" and "Rocky II" and as a buddy in "Rocky III" and (briefly) in "Rocky IV". As I'm pretty sure we'll both agree on, "Rocky V" was by far the worst Rocky movie out of the entire franchise. But Sly rebounded greatly from the "Rocky V" disappointment with his performance as "The Italian Stallion" in "Rocky Balboa", "Creed", and "Creed II". He was terrific in the last three movies I just mentioned as the legendary Rocky Balboa while hoping and praying he'll change his mind to appear in "Creed III" which is scheduled to hit movie theaters Thanksgiving 2022.
Perfect editing, perfect cut, perfect voice overs which sets up perfect emotions on the viewer. You sir definitely deserve all the views and likes you got, Thank you.
Every time I see Rocky get knocked down in the 14th round of the first Creed/Balboa fight, I will always remember being a very young man in the Lefferts Theater in Queens watching this drama unfold. I will always remember a theater full of young boys and teenagers SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF THEIR LUNGS for Rocky to get up. We recognized, even if unconsciously, that Rocky would rather die than quit. These movies are great to watch and learn lessons from. At least for me.
That's what made Rocky 2 so awesome.I was about 8 years old.I always couldn't understand why Rocky didn't win the first fight.carl weather's played appolo Creed to perfection totally convincing like he was actually him the person.
I feel you.... and even today when both Rocky and Apollo fall I get the same feeling like I'm watching it for the very first time. I grew up watching the Rocky movies with my Daddy who now has dementia and doesn't know who I am... Rocky movies bring me close to him...
@@TugaQueen My mom passed away a few years back. She had dementia, too, but at least you have a beautiful memory of him with you watching these movies. Towards the end she didn't know who I was either. Treasure that time together.
This sure hits different now - RIP the legendary Mr Carl Weathers 😢
it really does.like an upper cut from a legend.
He was a phenomenal actor that poured his all into his characters he played. What a real legend.
Yes it's sad hopefully he's in heaven and his friends will see him again
He was a Great actor 😅❤❤❤
He left his legacy in the film, and now, he left his legacy on Earth. Carl Weathers, I hope you're doing well boxing in heaven!
Carl Weathers portrayed the role of Apollo Creed flawlessly. Underrated actor. He should have won best supporting actor in Rocky lll.
Heath ledger- the joker. Carl weathers- Apollo Creed. Perfect actors. Right guys for it.
Qp@Kenneth Carrier
Agreed
@Kenneth Carrier APOLLO CREED CAME BACK AS ACTION JACKSON
@Kenneth Carrier BUT THROUGH VIDEO RENTALS & POP CULTURE THE CHARACTER GREW TO A HERO
Whoever put this together...pure genius im sure if Creed was still here he would have enjoyed this video
If you are a true Rocky fan, you can't help but love this tribute. It is an excellent video. I hope Carl Weathers sees this somehow.
I agree.
Carl weathers has always been the criminally underrated second man to the movie hero. He deserved his own platform a long time ago. I hope as well that Carl knows he always gave much beloved characters, not only Creed.
In heaven bro ❤
I hope heaven has you tube 😂
This is one of the best tribute to Carl Weathers .
Carl Weathers was tailor-made for the role of Apollo Creed. I heard that at one time, they wanted Ken Norton for the part. Frankly, I'm so glad that they stuck with Weathers, who's such a great actor in all of the "Rocky" films. This was a great tribute. Long live Apollo Creed!
Glad they got Carl Weathers as well. Ken Norton Sr was a great boxer, but a lousy actor.
RIP CARL WEATHERS AKA APOLLO CREED!
Rest in peace Carl weathers you were the eye of the 🐯
Rest in peace. The great one
Carl Weathers was just absolutely Awesome, he most definitely had the Wow factor about him!!
weathers was exceptional as creed. He was electric, charismatic and owned every scene he was in.

In Predator too

Me too! I always tear up watching legends.
Because you get it. I do the same.

Same here. The music gives me goosebumps too
I named my son after Apollo. Biggest reasons why, What he did for Rocky in 3 and he died a warriors death. He choose death over dishonor.

Rocky 2 is the most emotional Rocky film.
I agree my father was a little racist back when this was released, but he loved Carl beyond belief, and so do I.!
Rocky three was my coming of age movie, I was 12
Sadness is we born in that era where these legends are old and we can't witness more such legendary works 💔 let's pray for their good 🙏
BRILLIANT ACTOR
Carl Weathers!
The Role Of A Lifetime and Mr. Weathers talent rose to the occasion.

Yes!
Everyone in the first two movies was wonderful. Yes, the story is great. But, everyone brought their A-games to the performance.

watched Rocky IV numerous times, and when it always gets to that scene, i cry too, just like the Mickey scene when he died
Rocky 1 2 3 4,classic Sat up in the early hours couldn't sleep started watching all the fights brilliant choreography
Carl Weathers is a natural pro-athlete who played in both the NFL and CFL.

For the Oakland Raiders.

Facts
Reporter: You have anything derogatory to say about the champ ?
Rocky : Yeah he's great
The best series of movies ever love rocky as the underdog him and Adrian came full circle yo rocky you did it
This is absolutely phenomenal.
I always wanted to see more of Apollo’s house. So badass for its time
That was actually Muhammad Ali’s mansion in L.A. at the time.
When he's in the pool in 4 ? Or when he's reading the hate mail in 2 ?
This is brilliant. Tying the Apollo story from the original Rocky’s to the Creed Movies
Can't imagine anyone else as Apollo Creed.
Nicely done. The entire cast of Rocky-the surviving actors-would be PROUD of this compilation!

This is officially up there with that Rocky franchise retrospective video from 2016. This is amazing, thank you for this 😎
Great job man great job . The whole story from Apollos sight. Can call it Apollo instead Rocky. Many tears while watching this, big fan thanks.
R.I.P.Carl has passed away,but this movie and Apollo creed will live on and carl will live on forever. 🕊🙏🕊✨️🤺❤️✝️ eye of the tiger, never give up
How did you beat Apollo ? Time beat him it beats everybody. Time is undefeated! That's a true fact and something I will always remember.
Whoever made this, you're a fucking gem. Thank you.
I absolutely loved this!

What they did together through film impacted so many people. We all were Rocky at some point in our lives.
Outstanding tribute!
Thanks!
great piece. thanks for posting.
Wow!!! Very nice video.
Great video montage, Love Apollo
Every time I see Rocky get knocked down in the 14th round of the first Creed/Balboa fight, I will always remember being a very young man in the Lefferts Theater in Queens watching this drama unfold. I will always remember a theater full of young boys and teenagers SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF THEIR LUNGS for Rocky to get up. We recognized, even if unconsciously, that Rocky would rather die than quit. These movies are great to watch and learn lessons from. At least for me.
Nah not just for you,for many people.Whenever I feel choked up by my issues and problems I hear micky yelling get up you son of bitch.
That's what made Rocky 2 so awesome.I was about 8 years old.I always couldn't understand why Rocky didn't win the first fight.carl weather's played appolo Creed to perfection totally convincing like he was actually him the person.
CLAIRE SOR AVEC JETAIME OUI 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
I feel you.... and even today when both Rocky and Apollo fall I get the same feeling like I'm watching it for the very first time. I grew up watching the Rocky movies with my Daddy who now has dementia and doesn't know who I am... Rocky movies bring me close to him...
@@TugaQueen My mom passed away a few years back. She had dementia, too, but at least you have a beautiful memory of him with you watching these movies. Towards the end she didn't know who I was either. Treasure that time together.
Wow solid gold congrats this is the good stuff
It’s crazy how in the Rocky movies, Rocky and Apollo didn’t like each other but then they became best friends.
Bro this is the best Rocky edit i ever seen and i see it every now and then pre workout. Thank you
Seriously well put together montage. Well freaking done.
