Brilliantly edited!! I’d call this the definitive video on this subject. Hope you managed to get it past copyright for when it eventually blows up :) -DB
I always wrote off Rocky as a typical run of the mill boxing film. Didn't realize Stallone literally put his heart and soul into it and wrote the script himself. Time to binge watch the Rocky films for the first time!.
are you mentally ill? those movies have ignited men into getting into shape since the late 70s one of the most inspiring piece of media in human history lmao
I've always resonated with Rocky, and I feel so resonated with Sylvester Stallone now after watching this. He says I live you to all the Rocky's out there! I'm one of the Rocky's I feel privileged to say I don't know where I'd be without Sylvester Stallone, and Rocky i love Sylvester Stallone, and Rocky Balboa so much it's unreal ♥ thank you so much 💗
Without Carl Weathers the Rocky films wouldn't have been as good. Great actor gone but never forgotten he was Rocky's best opponent in all the Rocky films in my opinion.
Rocky and Sylvester Stallone was a HUGE part in my childhood growing up and has in so many ways influenced me to the man that I am today, because his movies were very educational in building my character. Sylvester will always be my HERO and I hope to meet him some day and say thank you for everything! ❤🥊
I’ve seen rocky before but never really heard that much about Stallones life before that movie. It gave me so much more respect for him than I already had
I really appreciate all the support on the channel! These documentary style videos take several weeks to create, and I’m glad so many new people are enjoying them :)
Sly did what no else could do he made a star flim in 28 days and got a Oscar nomination for sly he's a legendary actor and human being and I respect him 100% he's also motivated and inspired others in the world he's a amazing guy God bless you sly!!!
Man, this is genuinely one of the best youtube videos I've seen in a long time. The way you edited together all those clips to create a story and build emotions is masterful. Really amazing stuff Edit: Come back to see how the video's doing and it's now your biggest video. So glad it got the attention it deserved
@@dannygandolfini4517 Do you think scripting is all that's needed to make something your own? If so, you obviously don't understand the power of editing. I'd love to see you use all of the exact same footage and try to make something half as cohesive as this.
ROCKY BALBOA (Rocky VI) is by far the best film in the series along w/ the first. It is perfect I attended it w/ my girlfriend as a boxer my whole life just to see it. Never expected to love it as much as Cinderella Man By the time the fight starts, Mason breaks his hand, the "Conquest" theme starts & Duke gives him the motivational speech i was on my feet like a nut in the theater When Mickey says "Get up you son of a bitch because Mickey loves you" i wept for the first time in ages and began screaming at the screen like i was at one of my teammates fights It is a remarkable film The human spirit defined
I grew up hearing about this and thinking someday I'll have my Rocky moment. Almost thought I did there for a minute last year but luck is a cruel mistress.
You nailed it, that's what it is all about, we can't all win, moreover, most of us will lose because in the end there is only one winner. But that's what it is all about, to keep dignity or even your self-respect, when you lose.
I want to add to Rocko's last statement it's also an important lesson in life to remember ..............MICK...........WE GOT MORE TO DO ..............WE GOT MORE TO DO !!!
What made "Rocky" a great movie is that Stallone created a fictional character who is the underdog but based on his own personal experiences. No one else could had pulled it off.
This is my favorite story of all time, Rocky. Taking great inspiration from Muhamah Ali. What some people may not like or agree is that start of Mike Tyson was very similar to Rocky.
I'd like to share a thought about Sylvester Stallone's recent comment on films of the '70s being statements from writers. While he humbly downplayed Rocky as not being a statement, I firmly believe his masterpiece is so much more than that. The Rocky Saga is a guiding philosophy for life! It's a powerful reminder to never give up, to draw strength from our struggles, and to rise above adversity. Rocky's journey teaches us to embrace our underdog spirit, to persevere with grit and determination, and to find triumph in our triumphs. It's a testament to the human spirit that transcends generations. So let's celebrate Rocky as not just a film, but a way of life - a philosophy that inspires us to be our best selves and face our challenges with courage and resilience. 👊🏻🤜💥🤛👊🏻
Great production!! I recall watching Rocky in the theater with my father at the age of 4!! Great memories and I'm seriously saddened by the loss of Carl Weathers. May he rest in eternal peace. Great job and I'm going to need to watch your video with your family covering Rocky. Lol it looks hilarious. Wish you all the best and hope your channel continues to grow.
When I was a kid I thought Apollo was the antagonist in Rocky, as I got older I realized I was wrong. Apollo and Rocky are actually the same man at different stages of their lives. Both are honorable men, who came from absolutely nothing, and scratched and clawed their way to the pinnacle of success through sheer force of will. Success for both men was a double edged sword because with that success came a loss of the hunger which drove them to greatness. In other words, success bred failure. The challenge for both men was to reclaim their greatness by finding a new hunger born from their individual falls from greatness. Apollo lost to Rocky and Rocky lost to Clubber Lang. In Rocky 2, Rocky became the character that Apollo was in Rocky 1.
Yeah sly he had a tuff life I'm sympathetic. My mom grace she had a good understanding of rocky 5. She felt when you try to help people they turne. She felt rocky had a good heart he tried to help someone and he got a kick in the ass for it. Some people didn't like it some people do. Yeah she loved his sage sadly she died of lung cancer in 2019. Billyjoe marchese bklyn.
13:34......far too many people don't get this. They sit back and just complain and expect everything to be given to them, while blaming anyone with money for their own ills! The world doesn't work that way, and neither does the universe at large. You have to build yourself what you want - nothing is handed to you!!
As much as i love Rocky, 2 ~ 5 were made to make money, they are good but Rocky 1 is GREAT. Watching it as an adult the movie hits different, but i still think Network deserved best picture. lmao
look I ADMIRE SLY more than ANY of you may know... I always felt he was my FATHER... My mother told me my Dad was in entertainment.. and that he was a big personality... thus ... is why I make films.. but SLY even admitted YEARS later that he went with Frank to see the Chuck Webner Fight against Ali.. and that Chuck only wanted to go the distance with the champ .. CHUCK didn't make it.. but Rocky did... thus history was made...
i really dislike these channels where ppl try to seem smart using the power of few decades of hindsight and just end up overanalyzing everything with no basis of reality
Thank you! Sly said no to multiple things! He said no to selling the script unless he could star in it, he said no to giving up on Rocky Balboa even when his agents told him the franchise was dead, and he said no to the producers who didn’t want Rocky to lose at the end of the first film. He refused to ever give up!
Sly is too hard on Rocky 5. I know that he used that as his motivation to do Rocky Balboa. But I think Rocky 6 actually has more issues from a film making perspective. There are too many long winded monologues that take you out of the story and lessen the realism, whereas Rocky 5's is more smooth and natural sounding. Rocky Balboa also has a ton of unfortunate edits that cut out key scenes which just make a few scenes slightly confusing and not flow very well. I loved Rocky Balboa the first time I saw it, and I used to hate Rocky 5 because he never truly boxed in it. But I recently rewatched the series from a fresh perspective and funnily enough Rocky Balboa is really low on my tier list, being edged out by both Creed and Rocky 5.
It doesn't actually take that long to film a movie Most directors like to film scenes more than once Time is money and a lot of film time is wasted on filming the same scene more than 3 times
It also depends on the kind of movie you’re making. The scale of the set pieces, location, special and visual effects, etc. Rocky is a very simple movie, but it is still impressive how fast they filmed. Many scenes were shot in one take.
For anyone wondering what his mother meant by saying the hanger didn't work, at that time illegal abortions were very common. She is lucky she didn't bleed to death as it was very barbaric. Basically use your imagination. So glad it failed or we would have never seen all these great movies as kids. Still it is a horrible thing to say and it was an interesting insight into his childhood. A real Rocky man.

"im not good at anything other than....day dreaming" i felt that so much.
I had no idea Rocky was shot in under a month. The more I learn about this film the more I'm impressed with it.
It is a very impressive film!
The whole one month thing is not that crazy. The majority of movies have about 30 to 60 days principal photography cycle. 60 being on the long end.

Rocky is something beyond special. He's the quintessential character about never giving up.
Absolutely!
How quickly life can change, given the passion, the will, and the hard work....and a little luck. Rocky is a cultural institution.
I don't know why Sly's story hasn't been made into a movie yet. Truly an inspirational tale
I’d definitely watch it!
They have a documentary on him.
They usually do biopics after the subject has passed.
He wants to play himself, so nobody will touch it!
@dennisneo1608 Thats impossible
The scene where Rocky apologizes to Mickey and accepts him as manager, with them far in the background and no audible dialog was brilliant.
I've always resonated with Rocky, and I feel so resonated with Sylvester Stallone now after watching this. He says I live you to all the Rocky's out there!

ROCKY BALBOA (Rocky VI) is by far the best film in the series along w/ the first. It is perfect
I attended it w/ my girlfriend as a boxer my whole life just to see it. Never expected to love it as much as Cinderella Man
By the time the fight starts, Mason breaks his hand, the "Conquest" theme starts & Duke gives him the motivational speech i was on my feet like a nut in the theater
When Mickey says "Get up you son of a bitch because Mickey loves you" i wept for the first time in ages and began screaming at the screen like i was at one of my teammates fights
It is a remarkable film
The human spirit defined
Rocky Balboa is soo awesome! I haven’t seen Cinderella Man, but I’ve heard great things. I’ll have to give it a watch. Thanks for the comment!
The Mickey scene is in Rocky V, not Rocky Balboa. And the best is the first Rocky movie.
Great video that perfectly frames Stallone's struggles. A personal inspiration to me.
Thank you! 😊

I love subbing to hungry RUclipsrs, never lose that hunger.

What happened to Rocky 7
Stallone said Rocky Balboa (Rocky 6) was his last Rocky movie. Thankfully, he reprises his role in Creed! 🥊
Any chance get copy right back sold to producer
Granted he had to steal Chuck Wepnar’s life to do it, and pay him off later.
It doesn't actually take that long to film a movie
Most directors like to film scenes more than once
Time is money and a lot of film time is wasted on filming the same scene more than 3 times
It also depends on the kind of movie you’re making. The scale of the set pieces, location, special and visual effects, etc. Rocky is a very simple movie, but it is still impressive how fast they filmed. Many scenes were shot in one take.
