Trivia: According to an interview given by Mr. T, he attended the movie's premiere with his mother. During the scene where he yells lurid remarks at Adrian, his mother turned to him and said, "I did not raise you to talk to a lady like that." She then stormed out of the theater.
Mr T is one of the nicest guys ever , in 1984 when the A-team visited the netherlands for promotion they where welcomed by thousends, it brought tears to their eyes that they couldnt meet every one.

I love your guys' reactions. Your energy off of eachother is second to none. You guys are always quick on the uptake and recognizing things early as well. Great balance between yall.great job
I grew up in the Bronx NY with lot of "Rocky's" and of course I loved all the movies Stallone made, he was a rags to riches true story from the first Rocky to present day. The "Italian Stallion" was a perfect name for guys that could keep standing no matter how hard they got hit! This episode, Rocky III, is my favorite and I'm glad you liked it. You make it fun to watch with your comments, good job love your channel!
You know why you two are so fun to hang out and watch movies with? You have the chemistry. You can see it, you can feel it through the computer screen! You were meant for her, she was meant for you, all is right with the world! I've been with a bunch of ladies, and I can tell chemistry between a man and a woman! What are we watching today, Rocky III?!? This is the one with Mr. T in it, awesome! Mr. T is going to rip Rocky apart, until Rocky learns the hard style of fighting again!
thank youuuuu!! we weren't always like this! we went through a lot, but we came stronger every time ^_^ we started this yt channel more like a challenge.. if we can build something together :D and bcuz of people like you and comment like urs, made us so strong and gave us so much confidence!! Thank youuu Matt
Yes, there are two "Creed" movies that are in the Rocky universe. After this movie you just watched, there is Rocky 4, Rocky 5, and Rocky Balboa. After that there are Creed and Creed 2 with Creed 3 coming to theaters soon.
I really hope Creed 3 has something new to bring to the table. Because Creed 2 was absolutely horrible - boring and the characters where as shallow as a puddle.
Wow, when Mickey died I remembered Mike Tyson's story, he was rather a rascal but got trained and mentored by a coach that gifted him his own old boxing boots, that Tyson worn when he was the champion. This coach died and Tyson was so affected that he went down and got into drugs and misbehavior again. Sad story in the real world. Great video guys!
@@BigBoss-zi5ss Yes, absolutely right. I guess he was like his father. Whn you loose your mom or dad, many things don't matter anymore. It's easy to go to hell like that 😞
@@BigBoss-zi5ss Wrong. Tyson was misbehaving even at the end of Cus' life. He was sexually harassing girls right before Cus died. Now Cus living would've helped Tyson with his boxing..No doubt about that.
I was 7 years old when this came out, so I wasn't watching the Rocky movies quite yet. But I was a huge fan of Mr T in the A-team and Mr. T cartoon tv show that both came out the year after this movie. Mr T was huge in the 80s.
So glad you guys enjoyed this one as much as I knew you would. It's a lot of fun watching Apollo train Rocky, and how he finally responds to it after Adrian calls him on his BS. The relationships are what makes this series so special.
Rocky with Mick still wouldn't have defeated Clubber Lane. Rocky needed Apollo's defense (to avoid most of the power shots) and movement to outlast Clubber... FYI A lot of Clubber Lane/Mr T's lines were ad-libbed, Stallone just let him make it up on the spot... Originally Stallone wanted the song 'Another One Bites the Dust' by Queen, but for whatever reason Queen wouldn't let him use their song. Stallone comissioned Survivor to write 'Eye of the Tiger' and the rest is film history. Survivor saw the first ten minutes of Rocky 3, this inspired them. They demanded to see more.
30:20 many times it's the punch you don't see coming. At those moments, Rocky was able to determine where and when the punches were coming from, and is more able to absorb/mitigate it's impact, while Clubber ("Mr. T"), burns through his adrenaline, anger, and stamina.
the endurance made rocky above many boxers, not his punches.. not his style.. but his stamine and endurance.. is a risky style tough.. u might lose on points with that one! but Clubber was too prideful to win with just points.. he burned his stamina fast to destroy Rocky BIG MISTAKE
This is the second reaction I have seen from you two, so I really liked your reaction 😂 I am now a subscriber to your channel. I look forward to seeing more of your reactions. Can't wait for you guys to watch Rocky 4 and there are two Creed movies out with a third one one the way. See you guys soon.
Rocky's strategy was effective. You see there's 2 different styles that was used. Clubber Lang is a slugger who specializes in slugger-style boxing. Slugger-style boxing utilizes hook swings and haymakers looking for that one big punch. They're normally Mike Tyson's size and strength capacity. However, they can only last 2 to 3 rounds because of the energy they excert. Out-boxer style is more stragetic. Out-boxing style is staying out of an opponent's reach while capitalizing on missed swings. Key fact: wearing the slugger down requires paitence and focus. Once they swing and continue missing, stamina is excerted. With well placed blows to the gut area will bring their stamina even lower. That's why the slugger needs to finish the fight quickly before they get finished. Rock paper scissors triangle theory for boxing states sluggers normally struggle with out-boxers.
The pts where Cubber hits Rocky's arm is taken from 1 of the biggest upsets in history. George Foreman was the champ; he wasn't just winning but destroying his opponents. M Ali, a former champion, was a heavy underdog but he let George pound away on his arms. After George was tired, Ali gave him a KO
Best part is that Mr T , and Hulk Hogan apeared in an A-team episode . a few years later. Mr T is one of the nicest guys in real life. and was an insperation for many children.
That girl touched on a couple of interesting and true points. She pointed out that in the first fight Rocky didn't care about winning or losing and just wanted to go the distance. His mentality changed once he became champion which made him weak and afraid. She also says that Apollo was a better fighter than Clubber which is also true.
The statue of Rocky still stands near the bottom of those famous stairs. There is a movie called Grudge Match....Sylvester Stallone fights Robert DeNiro. Great channel!!
Actually, in the Rocky story, Apollo Creed is considered the best fighter of all time. In his prime, neither Rocky or Clubber Lang or any other fighter would be able to beat him.
@@rxtsec1 - Exactly, he didn't take the 1st fight seriously and his pride got hurt, 2nd fight he got too emotional and careless trying to knock Rocky out. That's why the Rocky series is so loved, it's a story of the underdog beating the odds.
i believe so too! i been doing some research a day ago.. and Rocky movie was based on Rocco Francis Marchegiano aka (Rocky Marciano) the way Rocky is portraited in the movie copied a lot from Marciano.. u see Marciano was never a ''body for a fighter'' but his determination and the insane workout routine and ethic made him the scariest Boxer of all time! he retired without losing a single match, and died so young in a plane crash.. Muhammad Ali himself said ''Marciano might be the only boxer I could be afraid to fight with, you will hit him and he will still come back for you, u will hit him 10 times, and he will hit you back 100'' it was estimated that in the 15th round of heavyweight match, he punched between 90 and 120 times!! scaryyy but yes, Apollo was very good! you could see that his technique was above many, what took him by surprise was the endurance Rocky had, and when he lost the second time. was bcuz he was pressured to defeat him faster, thus making him consume his stamine earlier.. BIG MISTAKE
@@MJoy4Fun there are some elements of Rocky Marchiano but he was undefeated and never lost. 49-0, There is a guy name Chuck Wepner who fought Muhammad Ali when he was the champ. The fight was supposed to be a easy fight but In that fight he knocked Ali down once and almost went the distance before being knocked out the 15th round. that's actually where Stallone got the idea for the story of Rocky
I like that you both recognize the parallel between how Rocky took the first fight with Clubber and how Apollo took that first fight with Rocky. I really enjoy your reactions.
The part about the "set-up" or "Hand-picked" fights. It brings up the ugly side of Boxing. For the longest time, and maybe still, Boxing was a racket. The Mafia got it's hands on it early. Fixing fights, bribing judges, paying fighters to take dives. Then the promoters, like Don King get involved. Makes one wonder when a fighter goes through the ranks. Sometimes it looks too easy. So when Rocky got curious about his Title fights, which Mick described as "Hand-picked". It's echoed by all top fighters.
That's exactly why Rocky wouldn't have beaten Clubber the first time cause he had been fighting easy fights because of Mickey. He had no hunger and didn't even train right. Apollo trained him right and his hunger returned.
sad but true! off topic: reminds me of Football here in Europe I used to be a hardcore fan of Football and Liverpool team in UK.. but in 2012 the history of next level fixed matches took a tight turn.. when in big Champions League where all big teams get together.. Barcelona was backed up by the referee they beat FC Chelsea at the last moment while denying FC Chelsea a lot of fauls and obvious penalties... sad history.. it was the time when I said ''good bye dear friend.. '' and I stopped watching Football completely Sports should have a huge ban against fixed matches.. no matter the cost.. every body deserves the right for the title
As much as I love the original I think of the final game of III as the most intense and best choreographed, you can feel all the punches, all the stamina and all the will to fight and that it ends at round 3 makes it feel more real... less narrative.
From age 5 to 9 a good friend of mine came for sleepovers a lot- playing NES and Sega, watching movies, stuff like that. My mom prohibited us from watching Rocky III (he had it on VHS, I got Rocky IV) after a few times - because at first we would work out like idiots, doing pushups and curls but then start to box each other... it was carnage every single time XD And the soundtrack is still one of the best music to work out :)
I believe rocky would have lost the 1st fight anyway because we saw that he was training like horse c*** rap. Remember in the first half of rocky 3 that rocky is acting how Apollo Creed did in the 1st movie which is someone who's become too proper, comfortable and as Mick says "civilized" so basically Rocky lost his edge in this film which was good on the writers part to flip the script. Plus, it was Apollo's training that helped keep Rock and Clubber's rematch short because that was the point seeing as how Clubber was too strong to withstand as evidenced in the first fight.
1. My favorite of the first 4 movies. 2. Where I lived had that pinball machine and I kicked the shit out of it. (ALL Top 5 scores) 3. Rocky doesn't have defense. He beats you to hell with his face. 4. "Eye of the Tiger" was from a band called Survivor. Their other hit was "High on You". 5. If you can get it a great Burgess Meredith movie to first time/share is the original "Clash of the Titans".
It never made sense to me how Rocky didn't take his preparation for the first fight seriously after Mickey JUST told him that he'd been setting him up with easier fights. If anything that should have made him want to train harder.
Mr. T was a bodyguard from Tennessee. However, both Stallone and Weathers were actual boxers. The best boxing was in the first two movies because it was more natural.
Many people don't like Clubber Lang/Mr T personality in this movie but in all fairness he had a VERY GREAT/LEGIT reason for going after Rocky so hard... He's honestly not much of a villain just a guy doing what he has to do to get his shot at something he earned and deserves...Clubber fought his way up to Rocky's level fair and square and Mickey was denying him the chance or SHOT to become heavyweight champ for 3 years all while watching Rocky take easy fights that Mick was picking for him... that would piss ANYBODY off who worked very hard...... Just thought I would throw that out there...lol
Eure Reaktionen sind sehr gut und lustig !!!! Muss immer voll lachen 😄 Macht Spass zuzusehen. Die Rocky Reihe ist phänomenal. Rocky 4 ist mein Favorit. Ivan Drago ist ein beast !!! Ihr müsst unbedingt prisoners mit Hugh Jackman gucken. Unglaublicher Film !!!! 👍
Creed movie is Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) never knew his famous father, boxing champion Apollo Creed, who died before Adonis was born. However, boxing is in his blood, so he seeks out Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) and asks the retired champ to be his trainer. Rocky sees much of Apollo in Adonis, and agrees to mentor him, even as he battles an opponent deadlier than any in the ring. With Rocky's help, Adonis soon gets a title shot, but whether he has the true heart of a fighter remains to be seen.
Yes two creed movies with rocky in them after 4, 5 and 6th ( rocky Balboa) then creed and creed 2 . Rocky is like the Mickey character ( old former boxer coaching)

Do you want to see a movie about a real life Rocky? Check out the 2005 Ron Howard biopic, "Cinderella Man". Seriously, it's next level, man! If you like "Rocky", you'll love "Cinderella Man".
Hello! Great Reaction-Video guys! It's always cool watching Video's with you! You'll see the favor Rocky is doing for Apollo in Rocky 4! If you watch Rocky 4 maybe it's possible to watch the Director's Cut?? You'll never regret watching this!😉
Very good reaction guys, when you get to the fourth one PLEASE watch the new cut called "Rocky 4: Rocky vs Drago," it's better than the theatrical cut.

I remember seeing this in 82 it was the first movie I ever saw where people were cheering and screaming and clapping when Rocky beat Clubber
whaaat?? haha that's a strong women right there!!
funny when you think about it, but scary if u see ur mom coming to you like that
Also the lurid remarks Mr. T made was unscripted but Stallone left it in cause it really add that despicable manner to the character.
Nobody wants a mother like Mr t's.
Mr. T is a hilarious villain. A master class in trash talking. I love the bromance between Rocky & Apollo in this one.
I love your guys' reactions. Your energy off of eachother is second to none. You guys are always quick on the uptake and recognizing things early as well. Great balance between yall.great job
awwww thank youuu! we are fighting alot and challenger our views, but we are not stopping haha
That Rocky statue still stands to this day
Like Rocky says, "It's not how hard You hit, it's how You can get hit and keep moving forward "
it is true!!
you dont lose when you lose, but when u give up!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. This was a well edited, enjoyable reaction.
thank youuuu!!
Mr. T played a great character in Clubber Lang. Clubber reminds Rocky to stay hungry and humble. Adrian and Rocky 4ever.
So glad you guys enjoyed this one as much as I knew you would. It's a lot of fun watching Apollo train Rocky, and how he finally responds to it after Adrian calls him on his BS. The relationships are what makes this series so special.
I just binge-watched your reactions to Rocky I -- III. Most excellent. Hope you watch Rocky IV.
Rocky with Mick still wouldn't have defeated Clubber Lane. Rocky needed Apollo's defense (to avoid most of the power shots) and movement to outlast Clubber...

is a risky style tough.. u might lose on points with that one!
but Clubber was too prideful to win with just points.. he burned his stamina fast to destroy Rocky
BIG MISTAKE
@@MJoy4Fun I will enjoy watching 👀 you watch rocky 4. 😎
Fact: Stallone got into the best shape of his career in the movie! He weighed in at like 155 with 2% bodyfat.
i could see that!!
man he was ripped!!
166 lbs and 2.8% was what he said in an interview.. which is crazy!
You guys are the BEST -hands down!
Great film and reaction ..
“ I pity the fool “ Mr T lol
This is the second reaction I have seen from you two, so I really liked your reaction 😂 I am now a subscriber to your channel. I look forward to seeing more of your reactions.

It's real. And it's still there, at the bottom of the museum steps.
My second favorite Rocky film. It's my favorite franchise. You guys are fun to watch
Always enjoy your reactions. I love Rock 1-3, imo they have the most heart. 💖💪👊
Great review guys ! Cant wait for ROCKY 4 !!
Mick from Australia guys. Great reaction. You are going to love Rocky4.
Its so fun watching movies with you two!
Good reaction guys. Props to girl . Its so rare to find a girl that enjoys movie like this. Thats a great wifey material right there
Love theses reactions! Keep it up!
Love you guys as always!!
Clubber Lang is the heartless version of Rocky. If Rocky did not have a good heart and good people around him he would be like Clubber.
Both of you are amazing. Love you both. ❤. Thanks for all the reactions.

From age 5 to 9 a good friend of mine came for sleepovers a lot- playing NES and Sega, watching movies, stuff like that.
My mom prohibited us from watching Rocky III (he had it on VHS, I got Rocky IV) after a few times - because at first we would work out like idiots, doing pushups and curls but then start to box each other... it was carnage every single time XD
And the soundtrack is still one of the best music to work out :)
I definitely enjoyed your reaction and yeah, I always lose 2 kilos during that last fight scene, too. 😄.
New sub from the Philippines!!! Binged all your Marvel Cinematic Universe reactions, waiting for the next ones. ❤️❤️❤️
Nothing like a pep talk from Action Jackson.
Mr T is so great in this
The great Mr. T playing my favorite character in the series Clubber Lang. Also my 2nd favorite Rocky/Creed movie out of the 8
I believe rocky would have lost the 1st fight anyway because we saw that he was training like horse c*** rap. Remember in the first half of rocky 3 that rocky is acting how Apollo Creed did in the 1st movie which is someone who's become too proper, comfortable and as Mick says "civilized" so basically Rocky lost his edge in this film which was good on the writers part to flip the script.

1. My favorite of the first 4 movies.
2. Where I lived had that pinball machine and I kicked the shit out of it. (ALL Top 5 scores)
3. Rocky doesn't have defense. He beats you to hell with his face.
4. "Eye of the Tiger" was from a band called Survivor. Their other hit was "High on You".
5. If you can get it a great Burgess Meredith movie to first time/share is the original "Clash of the Titans".
This movie has my favorite Rocky opponent,
*THUNDERLIPS*
Thanks for Posting kudos Enjoy Respect 🙏🏅 PEACE
To see more Carl Weathers (Apollo Creed), check out "Predator" and "Action Jackson".
Beautiful vídeo, congrats from Brazil ❤🎭.
Believe it or not Eye of the tiger is considered a classic also
This movie keeps you on the edge of your seat. The death of Mickey was hard to watch..Great reaction, Hopefully we see you at Rocky 4..Take care.
It never made sense to me how Rocky didn't take his preparation for the first fight seriously after Mickey JUST told him that he'd been setting him up with easier fights. If anything that should have made him want to train harder.
I can't wait for number four 🤗 and the sixth one titled Rocky Balboa. And I really hope y'all do the Creed ones too.
I seen this at a drive-in when it first came out
Mr. T was a bodyguard from Tennessee. However, both Stallone and Weathers were actual boxers. The best boxing was in the first two movies because it was more natural.
In November 1975 in Rocky Mickey told Rocky he was 76 years old. Means he would have been born in 1899. His headstone says he was born 1905.
Mickey took a lot of shots to the head. He may have been confused.
12:24 you sounded like a velociraptor lol😂😂😂
Great honest reaction, loved it. Thank you
I don't think there was any other franchise that started the sequels with something akin to "Previously.....on Rocky..."
Many people don't like Clubber Lang/Mr T personality in this movie but in all fairness he had a VERY GREAT/LEGIT reason for going after Rocky so hard... He's honestly not much of a villain just a guy doing what he has to do to get his shot at something he earned and deserves...Clubber fought his way up to Rocky's level fair and square and Mickey was denying him the chance or SHOT to become heavyweight champ for 3 years all while watching Rocky take easy fights that Mick was picking for him... that would piss ANYBODY off who worked very hard......
Just thought I would throw that out there...lol
You're absolutely right!!!
@@nakitapalmer656 Exactly so for those who catch on to that about Clubber, may now understand better why he is the way he is towards Rocky...lol
Oh man I can’t wait for you guys to do Rocky 4
hollywood sensationalism at its best, gotta love it
Part 4 is the the pinnacle of the franchise. The cinematography, the odds, the story, everything. Be ready for tears and happiness.
@Richard Craig This is a Empire is better than New Hope debate. :)
Eure Reaktionen sind sehr gut und lustig !!!! Muss immer voll lachen 😄
Macht Spass zuzusehen.
Die Rocky Reihe ist phänomenal.
Rocky 4 ist mein Favorit. Ivan Drago ist ein beast !!!
Ihr müsst unbedingt prisoners mit Hugh Jackman gucken.
Unglaublicher Film !!!!
👍
Creed movie is Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) never knew his famous father, boxing champion Apollo Creed, who died before Adonis was born. However, boxing is in his blood, so he seeks out Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) and asks the retired champ to be his trainer. Rocky sees much of Apollo in Adonis, and agrees to mentor him, even as he battles an opponent deadlier than any in the ring. With Rocky's help, Adonis soon gets a title shot, but whether he has the true heart of a fighter remains to be seen.
You two rock!
He said Crabble haha
In Creed (1 I think) Rocky reveals that Apollo won that private fight at the end of Rocky 3.
Yes two creed movies with rocky in them after 4, 5 and 6th ( rocky Balboa) then creed and creed 2 . Rocky is like the Mickey character ( old former boxer coaching)
The statue of Rocky is real, and outside the Philadelphia Museum of art.
Man, I can't wait for you guys to get to ROCKY 6. Hopefully, you're willing to stick with it.

The rocky statue is real and it is located at the bottom of those stairs in Philadelphia
Game over on Marian's palms. You need a lotion sponsor for when you rub your hands together at the beginning of each video 😂😂😂
Do you want to see a movie about a real life Rocky? Check out the 2005 Ron Howard biopic, "Cinderella Man". Seriously, it's next level, man! If you like "Rocky", you'll love "Cinderella Man".
Hulk Hogan that guy LMAO 🤣
After Rocky 4 you are going to see Rocky Balboa the fifth movie and one of the best of the Rocky movies !
@Sound Logic My bad!!!
Yeah, you're skipping over Rocky V(1990). lol. Kind of forgettable IMO.
@@confucius12012 Never thought that one should have been made some people like it but I don't.
Hello!
Great Reaction-Video guys! It's always cool watching Video's with you!
You'll see the favor Rocky is doing for Apollo in Rocky 4! If you watch Rocky 4 maybe it's possible to watch the Director's Cut?? You'll never regret watching this!😉
Very good reaction guys, when you get to the fourth one PLEASE watch the new cut called "Rocky 4: Rocky vs Drago," it's better than the theatrical cut.
