For those of you following the thread, that aren't cowards, see basis in my opinion, and don't get miffed when I out their ludicrous reasoning, my basis, again was soley in the Cold War allegory of "Rocky 4". It was a fun gimmick, and it featured some of the best training montages, as well as villians in the entire franchise. That's a common opinion amongst fans of the franchise, and the poll is a reflection of that.
Good to know that a lack of "realsiem" and the "fact"
that a white man can't knock out a black man is a better basis than that of a movie featuring a unique allegory, storied villains, and a message that was realized only 4 years after the movie with the end of the Cold War and subsequent fall of the Berlin Wall and U.S.S.R.
Besides, your "Razzie" arguement would hold water, had the movie "won" Worst Picture, which it didn't.

Yeah they were both pointless sequels to a movie that i would not have minded if they had ended it after the original rocky but for sure SHOULD have ended at least after the third and should not have been more than a trilogy.Needless to say this discussion will probably no longer continue since I have now put CINEMADDICTION on my ignore list since he obviously cant stand to see a movie put down that he likes.
Oh, I can stand to see it put down. Apparently it's you that can;t see your "basis" put down.
By the way, don't you think if Apollo Creed and Rocky were friends, some of his "blackness" would have worn off on him, thus making him a better fighter, subsequently raising the all important "realism" in the movie?
I mean, otherwise, white guys can't beat black men or Russians, right? 😕
