The actor who played Pauly was actually boxer in real life, 20 years before this film. He went undefeated in 50 fights.
That was an interesting coincidence that you guys made a reference to Lennie from “ Of Mice And Men”. Rocky’s manager Burgess Meredith was actually in that film in 1937, playing George Milton - Lennie’s overseer and best friend, back when getting started in acting.
The whole scene with Rocky running up to Mick in the street is pure genius. The director doesn't let you hear the conversation, he makes the audience participate.
Rocky 2 is calling your name.
I love how the winner of the match is being announced, but it's in the background, it's irrelevant, because Rocky is still on his feet and there's the woman he loves, and that's all the matters. I love a story where someone wins despite not winning.
Adrian is Talia Shire, sister of Francis Ford Coppola, director of 'The Godfather' trilogy (which she also stars in) and more legendary films. She's also an aunt of Nicolas Cage (his birth name is Nicolas Coppola) and mother of actor Jason Schwartzman.
I love playing "when will Cam retch" bingo. The eggs did it! LOL 🤣
Rocky is the movie that tricks guys into watching a love story.
Just found y'alls channel and you guys rock! Like I'm watching these movies with my boys IRL y'all are super chill and speak/think like I do! New fan for sure!
Remember when this came out in 76 it was our Nation’s 200 year anniversary and it was a pretty big deal with celebrations tv specials etc , fun times, thanks guys
I believe Cuff and LInk are still alive and living with Slyvester Stallone in a nice spacious crib. They even made a cameo appearance in one of the recent Creed movies...while the glass bowl seems pretty small by todays standards, you guys should have seen the official turtle bowls back then, very small and they consisted of a small circular ramp in a small plastic bowl.
Rocky is arguably the greatest sports (boxing) movie ever made as far as I'm concerned. Its certainly the most inspirational.
It’s a 10 in my book.
Absolutely!
I 100% agree. It’s also a great love story. One of the best.
Remember going to distance is not just a moral victory but nearly one losing on a split decision. Also until people watch this then realize it's not really a boxing movie
Okay fellas I love to share this story with newcomers to the Rocky world!!
There was a fight in 1975 between Muhammad Ali, who was the heavyweight champ at the time, and a relatively unknown local regional fighter by the name of Chuck WEPNER!!
Chuck had a nickname, the Bayonne Bleeder because of his tendency to get cut very easily and bleed profusely during a fight,!! (Kind of like Rocky in this fight) Bayonne New Jersey being his hometown and also where I grew up!! As you guys may know, Muhammad Ali had a very outgoing voicerous personality, something like Apollo Creed in this movie!! He was boasting that he would knock Wepner out in 3 rounds!! In fact Chuck knocked Ali to the canvas one-time early in the fight and lasted into round15 before he was knocked out!!!
Sylvester Stallone saw that fight and it inspired him to finish his script for Rocky!!
Chuck Wepner is still alive today in his 80s!!! And still lives in Bayonne, with where they actually erected a statue of him similar to Rocky's statue!!
Part two picks up right where this one leaves off. I'd suggest watching soon.
Most of them start with end of last movie.....
The thing I love about this is all the characters seem prototypical on the surface but there are complex relationships between them all. Paulie has virtually no redeeming qualities but rocky stands by in their friendship cuz he’s just that loyal. When rocky looks past the hurt he’s felt from mick ignoring him cuz he didn’t commit to the right path.
Zay "egging" Cam on when Cam was trying not to throw up was priceless!!! lol Keep up the great work guys!
Everyone, vote for them to watch the original Evil Dead, I think that will get Cam to "Yak".
I think Starship Troopers might test Cam’s mettle as well.
Stand By Me
The *$500* bucks his loan shark of a boss gave him was nearly *$3K*
"You're gonna eat lightnin' and you're gonna crap thunder!"
Fun Fact: Sylvester Stallone was inspired to write the screenplay after seeing the Chuck Wepner-Muhammad Ali fight on March 24, 1975, at the Richfield Coliseum in Richfield, Ohio, near Cleveland. The details of that fight is beyond the scope of this comment, but the Creed-Balboa fight parallels that fight in many ways.
Making Lemonade Fact: In the film, the poster above the ring before Rocky fights Apollo (Carl Weathers) shows Rocky wearing red shorts with a white stripe when he actually wears white shorts with a red stripe. This was an actual mistake made by the props department that they could not afford to rectify, so Sylvester Stallone came up with the idea for the scene where Rocky points out the mistake himself. The comment about Rocky's robe being too baggy came about the same way - the robe delivered to the set was far too baggy for Stallone, so rather than hope people wouldn't notice, the character himself simply points it out.
Guerrilla Filmmaking Fact: Most of the scenes of Rocky jogging through Philadelphia were shot with no permits, no equipment, and no extras. The shot where he runs past the moored boat for example, the crew were simply driving by the docks, and John G. Avildsen saw the boat, and thought it would make a good visual, so he had Sylvester Stallone simply get out of the van and run along the quays, while Avildsen himself filmed from the side door. A similar story concerns the famous shot of Rocky jogging through the food market. As he runs, the stall keepers and the people on the sidewalks can clearly be seen looking at him in bemusement. While this works in the context of the film to suggest they're looking at Rocky, in reality, they had no idea why this man was running up and down the road being filmed from a van. During this scene, the famous shot where the stall owner throws Rocky an orange was completely improvised by the stall owner, who had no idea that a movie was being filmed and that he would be in it.
In that fight, Wepner also knocked Ali down for the first time in Ali's career, which was mirrored in Rocky's fight with Creed in the movie.
you guys must watch all the rocky movies and the creed movies. this whole series is amazing!
Rocky 2! 🥊
Butkus was Sylvester Stallone's dog. Before he sold the story of Rocky he sold Butkus for $25 for food for his family. After selling the script for $25000 he bought back Butkus for $15000
Buttkiss 😊
1500? no?
@@JosephHuntelvisnspiders Yeah, it was 1500, not 15000.
@@focalized :bupkis, but yeah it sounds just like butkiss,LOL. I believe it’s a Yiddish word for “nothing.” Like, yeah they got $500, and I git bupkus
It's all a lie, it was all a pulicity stunt.
Split decision is better than an actual loss. It's a tie, but the split decision always goes to the champion. When you fight for the title, you have to win it outright.
Stallone would not sell the script unless he got to play the lead and it was a very smart decision. If you look at the all the films that were nominated the year Rocky won the Oscar, you'll see what a great year it was for cinema. Would be interested in your reaction to Network which came out the same year
yeah. nobody could play Rocky better than Stallone anyways.
Awesome that you guys are reacting to the Rocky movies. Hopefully you’ll react to all of them.
Keep up the great work guys! You’re awesome!
The man who plays Rocky's loan shark boss is actor Joe Spinell. He's in a really craaazy, classic horror film called, "Maniac" (1980). You guys should react to that one someday. He also plays a character ('Willi Cicci') in the famous film, The Godfather (1974).
Let’s see Rocky 2!
Rocky received critical acclaim toward Stallone's writing, performance, the story, as well as the film's direction, music score, cinematography and editing; among other accolades, it received ten Academy Award nominations and won three, including Best Picture.
Can’t wait for Rocky 2!
Butkus is Sylvester's actual dog that he sold when he was broke and then he sold the script for Rocky went back to buy them & the new owners charge him like 10k
Jeeeez Cam really be retching up his entire soul with those gags 😂
I'm watching this for the first time right now and reading these comments. I didn't know Cam was going to gag. I can only assume it's the egg scene... Oh, there it is! Lol!!! Hahaha! Then Zay makes the comment! HAHAHA!!! 😂 (Now I wonder if Cam's going to gag with the eye cutting scene!)
Rocky had very solid reasons for initially rejecting the offer to fight Creed. He needed time to process it, keeping in mind the huge difference between fighting in clubs and fighting for the heavyweight championship! Damn all that "positive thinking" bs.. he was being real. Up until that moment he had no plans or expectations to progress as a professional boxer. Very little focus or discipline. He and Mickey needed each other.
Sylvester was never a boxer but the funny thing is that Paulie really was, when he was younger.
I’m so glad y’all watched this wonderful movie. I hope y’all do the whole franchise. There’s many good movies and a couple of so so movies in this franchise but it’s worth it to enjoy these great movies. I hope y’all do the Creed movies as well.
So glad ya'll tapped into Rocky. Im51 years old. I saw this in the fricken theater. It's one of my favorite franchises ever. There's a reason you guys are reacting to this damn near 50 years later. These movies showcase what a talented person Stallone is. He definitely gives us SOOOOOOOOO many jewels in these. So much inspiration and life wisdom. Some people will say don't bother with 5, but bump that. They all matter. Yes there is 6 movies they all can't be the best. I promise ya'll will fall in love with this franchise if you follow up. Always enjoy ya'll. Blessings!
Same here. I'm 52 and saw this at the drive-in with my folks and a cousin when it came out. 😅
I’m just glad you understood the ending, other reactors are always confused by the split decision
No way in hell could it be a split decision. Rocky only won 2 rounds the 1st and 15th. And he maybe didn't even win the 1st. Creed came back strong and knocked him down and broke his nose before the bell.
I saw this as a teenager at the theater when it first came out and it was pretty amazing. The country was getting ready to celebrate its Bicentennial birthday so patriotism was everywhere and this kind of came out of nowhere but man did word spread. Great to watch people see it for the first time.
same here i was 16.
18:00 When you said, he's blinding her now.
Dude..I've seen this a million times. Always thought this was a who cares/subjective scene. But I was crying, man. You two are awesome 👍
I was in 6th grade when this movie was released, and I’m from the Philly area. This film had such a huge cultural impact…the underdog story, the locations shots, the music…all great. It’s a classic in my opinion.
Rocky II is really worth seeing. Very good sequel.
my favorite one
The boxing choreographer quit. He had creative differences with Stallone. Stallone wanted Apollo Creed to open the fight with four jabs and the choreographer said that no fighter would ever do that, Stallone’s reply was “Apollo Creed would “ and the choreographer quit because he thought Stallone was dumb for wanting it that way. And that’s how Stallone ended up with the job as the boxing choreographer.
As you may know Sylvester Stallone wrote this movie . The budget was extremely low for filming. So the date at the ice rink was supposed to be full of extras. In order to cuts costs Sly rewrote the scene to just three actors. The baggy robe and the wrong color boxing shorts on the mural were both mistakes made by their departments. So instead of spending money of fixing these mistakes. Sly addresses them in character.
Going the distance in that time was 15 three minute rounds
Did anyone in these comments mention Stallone's 1970 main man appearance in "Party at Kitty and Stud's"? 😁
The obligatory: Stallone still has the turtles and the dog was actually his.
When I saw this in the theatre when it first came out, it was the first time I saw the entire audience stand up at the end, applaud, whistle and cheer and drown out the end music.
Pretty incredible series that has been going from 1976 until present. As you watch some of the other Rocky’s it’s fun to see what was going on in popular culture throughout the 45+ year span.
ikr? the transition from 70s to 80s in Rocky 3 and the transition of 80s to 90s in Rocky 5 was fun to notice. The 90s to 00 transition of Balboa was depressing though.
Balboa was my favorite Rocky movie after this one.
Ironically, Sylvester Stallone never boxed in real life, but Burt Young who plays the sloppy drunk, lazy brother of his girlfriend was a successful boxer at both amateur and professional levels. I think he was unbeaten in his professional career.
Go DIRECTLY to Rocky II - it’s the second half of the story. 👏👏👏🔥
Rocky 2 is even better. The best Rocky movie.
Bro absolutely... it's my favorite of all the Rocky movies.
I actually laughed out loud at "oh he's blinding her".
yeah but they tried to turn this into a comedy every chance they could get, and that's a little rude imo
@@MoMoMyPup10 They’re just young and that’s their personalities. As they get older they’re going to grow as reactors.
@@MoMoMyPup10 they're just having fun watching a movie man lol
And if you go back and re-listen to just the fight commentary he actually set two records during that fight. The first one was he was the first fighter ever to knock Apollo down. Early on in the fight when they first gets that good hidden and knocks all over the ground the commentator said oh my god that's the first time Apollo's ever been knocked to the ground. And then of course going the distance was the second. No fighter had ever gone all the rounds with Apollo. Which is part of the reason Apollo was struggling so much at the end He's used to finishing the fights within the first couple of rounds he himself has never had to go a full 15 rounds. Rocky literally pushed him to the brink.
I'm from Philadelphia and familiar with a lot of those neighborhoods. Also, the run through the Italian Market in South Philly is one for the ages. The Italian Market is still there, but there aren't anymore Italians. When we saw this in the theater, people were on their feet, screaming and yelling during the fight scene. I've never seen anything like it.
Sylvester Stallone still has the 2 turtles!
I was so happy you guys had a video up this morning. You could be watching an infomercial on swifter products and it would be a great watch! After watching Rocky with you, I now feel like I have the confidence and strength to unload the dishwasher and do the laundry. 🙏🏻 Green Mile soon? (and of course my standard ask “Little Miss Sunshine”… so dark and deliciously funny)
When I saw you guys were doing Rocky I thought, ‘pretty sure Cam isn’t going to like the egg scene.’ 😂 I was laughing so hard and Zay was making it funnier.
OMG I'M FIRST!! okay, shoot, I'm 3rd. LOL Oh and I can finally - 20+ years later say this and it will mean something. I've met Carl Weathers and chatted with him. Being that I'm exactly 5 feet tall, it was quite the experience, he seemed truly larger than life in person!
your reaction to Rocky getting his eyelid cut to remove the blood and decrease swelling makes me realize I am getting old. I have pulled knives, screws, nails and other things out of various appendages, and sprinted across a construction site with one leg fully engulfed in flame, only to find a puddle 1 inch deep and 8 inches across. You better believe I was soaked from the waist down when I was done rolling around in that sorry excuse for a puddle. I have almost lost a thumb to a pillar drill, getting electrocuted several times because of incompetent work mates who do not understand how to safely hook up a welding rig. I have been half buried under rubble, sand, concrete powder, and dried paster. I have been covered in weeks-old, dead pigeon remains (Never turn on a roof fan at full speed to clear it of dead birds instead of using gloves and hands!!!) and numerous other things during my 35 years alive. And I live in Denmark, arguably one of the safest countries to live in.
The new generation amuses me xD
Wait until you meet Clubber Lang.
Sounds weird, but I’m not the only person who feels this way…. These movies literally molded me as a child.
Of COURSE you have to watch the other Rocky movies! They're classics, even the not so good one!
If you guys liked this one, you will love parts 2 - 5. Maybe even Balboa. Creed is another beast as well. But only 1 and 2
Honestly, "Rocky Balboa" (aka Rocky VI) is probably the best film after the first two.
@GeoffTrowbridge - you may be right, I just happen to have a soft spot for my favorite which is Rocky 4
@@felipepineda1585 Have you seen the directors cut of Rocky IV that was released a couple years ago? I wasn’t much of a fan of the film prior to that, but this new version feels so much more genuine. I like it a lot.
@GeoffTrowbridge - I have not. But thank you I just might now. Especially from a fellow Rocky fan!
I laughed so hard at 29:41 rocky, Adrian and zay all in the same frame. It looks like zay is right next to them on the couch.
Stallone wrote "Rocky", inspired by a heavyweight championship match between Mohammad Ali and an outclassed challenger, Chuck Wepner, "the Bayonne bleeder". Stallone intended to play the role of Rocky himself and held out to get that deal.
Awesome saw at the theater several times, great movie great story with some good emotion and also a clean movie for all ages, thanks guys!
The 2nd movie is just as good. Don’t sleep on it. The rest are typical 80s sequels.
Hey. Rocky Balboa (Rocky 6) is easily just as good as 2
When this movie came out it was insane how many great heavyweights were competing in real life.
You guys have never heard of Rocky Marciano?
Great movie choice. Thank you.
24:48, raw egg scene, poor Cam, need i say more. Heres yaking at you kid. You had me watering in my eyes i almost died laughing.
Rocky is a nickname for Robert. Rocky's real name is Robert Balboa
Oh! I always thought his name was Rocco.
@@TheSculleryMaid if you watched the other Rocky movies, his son is named Robert Balboa, Jr. That would make Rocky Robert Balboa Sr.
Best love story of all time.
13:08, an example of the actor's commentary, Burt Young said this turkey was just one turkey and it was filmed so many times by the end this turkey was falling apart and had to be tied so many times after it got thrown out the door so many times and poor Burt Young had to act eat spit it out then act eat again to get the scene done so many times. They had a low budget so they could not buy many turkeys just the one.
Great reaction guys!Got to keep going on the Rocky movies.
The tall ship in the background when he's running along the waterfront is The Moshulu, the ship young Vito Corleone came to America on in The God Father Part 2. It is now permanently docked in Philadelphia as a restaurant and night club.
I dated a guy named Rocky. For real! I am old so it was when the dinosaurs roamed the earth. Hope you guys have a blessed day!❤
So glad you got into this one! I love the Rocky series. Sylvester Stallone is such an intelligent guy. He can write, direct, and act.
You should definitely check out the sequels. You'll enjoy them all. You two have such great chemistry reacting to movies. Looking forward to your next reaction vid. You should check out Demolition Man. Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes. It's an action film with a bit of social satire.
The doctor that delivered Stallone usee forceps incorrectly and damaged nerves in his face, mostly on the left side causing partial paralysis of his lip, chin and tongue. Growing up this caused him to have much difficulty talking and that along with how he looked made people like his teachers label Stallone as having a "dormant" brain.
He was also teased for the way he looked and talked, people called him "Sylvia".
In junjor high and high school he decided to take up sports like football and, yes, boxing, thinking that the training would build his body up to an intimidating size that might make people think twice about teasing him. It worked.
But also, showing in more ways than one that his brain was not dormant, he also took acting. He was good at acting but also the many different kinds of dialogs that Stallone had to learn helped him train himself to talk better.
In 1975, world heavy-weight boxing champion Muhammad Ali fought Chuck Wepner in a title fight. The fight was supposed to be an easy $1.2 million dollar payday for Ali. Wepner was a 40 - 1 underdog.
Wepner shocked the world by almost going the distance with Ali, going down with just 19 seconds left in the 15th round.
After seeing the fight Stallone was inspired and in a writing frenzy wrote the script for _ROCKY_ in just 3 and a half days!
Awesome to see you guys watching Rocky! I hope you watch all of them. Even V, which I mentioned on your 10K celebration stream. I own a 5 pack vhs set of Rocky I-V from my great-grandfather. I just keep it for the sentimental value, but I cherish it.
Not a huge fan of the Creed trilogy, but not saying you shouldn’t watch them as you might enjoy them.
I always thought Rocky and Adrien were so cute together. They're both really similar when you think about it, with the social awkwardness and everything. They just have different special interests but they support each other in them.
Good reaction as always guys. Rocky is the classic that started the franchise. The second one is also well worth watching. They tie in well to the recent Creed movies.
I hope you guys like it 😊✌️❤️
Micky (Burgess Meredith) was the original Penguin of the Batman television series in the 60s
As far as sequels go, now you have to do rocky 2. Almost as good
Awesome reaction, look forward to seeing you do up to Rocky IV, they were kind of trash past that. Considering how low budget the first movie was you know damn well that turkey was caught by someone when Paulie threw it out the window and shared by the crew 🤣🤔💯🔥
Being born and raised in Philly, you guys must continue on. All the movies!!!
Enjoy!!
The dog Butkus was named for the Bears Hall of Fame middle linebacker Dick Butkus . Kind of looks like him too , LOL .
You guys should watch the true DVD with all the comentaries. One Commentary was the best commentary which had the director, Talia Shire, Burt Young, Carl Weathers, all separated but very very informative. How Talia Shire went to thrift stores to pick her own character's clothes to Carl Weathers bunking with Burgess Meredith (Mick), Burt Young's praising the script to even some of the locations they had to shoot. The scene where Rocky was yelling at Mickey in his crib saying that it "STINKS IN HERE" was actually a decrepit building and it really stank. Bunch of good stuff, probably one of the best commentaries to be heard. Reason: Was one of the oldest dvds as now a days commentaries really stink.
"Where's your hat?"
"I love you."
"I love you."
Drinking raw eggs is something people really used to do. There was a misconception about eggs, that if you cooked em they'd have less protein, so athletes and bodybuilders would drink raw eggs instead of cooking them. They don't have more protein of course, but that was the belief at the time. IIRC you actually get MORE protein if you cook em, while also preventing salmonella poisoning.
It's a bit corny, but an F'n Great Movie. Stallone is a freakin genius, no doubt about it.
He did in fact give the turtles a nicer crib. He kept them after the movie.
Stallone had trained in boxing for a few months with the legendary former heavyweight champion Joe Frazier before filming began. However, Stallone was not a professional boxer and had no experience before making the movie.
Remember this film when you watch Rocky Balboa. The turtles. Maria, Spider Rico, and even the eating raw eggs and hitting the beef make a comeback.
I hope you two will also react to the sequels.
The Rocky Franchise is more than a boxing series.
It's about the life story of Rocky Balboa.
People have their favorite Rocky movie. I love the whole franchise.
You see the characters growing after each movie. But no matter what. Rocky still stays a likeable and positive person.
People always think Gazzo is a super bad dude but he was the only one who helped Rocky before he got the fight with Creed.
Rocky 1 was a great intro but part 2 was the best of them all. So inspirational.
33:31 a scene that was almost, ALMOST did not get filmed. Supposedly the powers that be wanted this scene not be filmed as the movie already had the point proven and Stallone and director begged for this scene. Well, the powers gave them just one shot only and if they could do it in that one shot they would allow it. Well, one shot later, which you saw, and the only take they had....well there you go, one of the best scenes in the movie.
One thing you should know about any Rocky movie is that the Boxing isn't exactly realistic in the sense of how boxing is played out, it's over-exaggerated in this movie franchise. You'll get scenes where the fighter will throw illegal punches or pick-up the other fighters and never get called on. Rocky Franchise is the only movies that I have ever seen that the Crowd in the Theater actually cheered for during watching the film, I can't think of another movie that took ahold of viewers in theaters more strongly than this movie franchise! Masterpiece when you have the Theater viewers cheering at the Big Screen.
At least one judge felt that Rocky won the fight.
You guys need to watch the other Rocky movies and the sooner the better. You will not be disappointed, trust me!!!
I enjoyed your reactions and am looking forward to seeing more from you guys.
