Why couldn't Sly continue the 'Home Team' theme from Rocky 5, and have Rocky Jr start coming up as a boxer?
Wouldn't that also be a way of completing the circle, with the 'new' Rocky Balboa as a scrapping young southpaw waiting for his big break, etc etc blah blah...
or have Rocky get his 60-year old brains bashed in, so Rocky Jr is compelled to step into the ring, seeking revenge... also a tie-in back to the past 'revenge-based' stories...

I some how doubt it in rocky five he didn't want his kid to solve problems using his fists like he did he wanted his son to be better than he was to use his mind rather than his brawn.
By giving the nigga the name of Mason "The Line" Dixon, was a direct slap in the face to blackies. Not even Katrina hurt as much as what the Rock brought to the table.
Rambo 4: john rambo now rests at a retirement home, but the crazy man across the hall wont give him back Rambo's teeth, and now ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE.
LOL..
"The line will actually be played by (Antonio Tarver) a real light heavyweight champ who is undefeated and in his prime" to add to more realism to the movie...
Basicaly Stallone is trying to make the fight scenes different than any other movie before..
I still think that Rambo 4 is the one to see...

More like the worst.Thats what is so stupid about that horrible Rocky 4 is that quote-whatever he hits,he destroys,that was just beyond ludicrise to believe that any boxer would have been able to take that kind of punishment from Drago and live.As I mentioned earlier,even Ivander Hollifield said Rocky 4 is the one rocky movie he did not like because any real boxer would not have been able to take that kind of punishment from a boxer and live.That they would have died a long time ago from that kind of punishment and never lasted 15 rounds.
ivander hollifield? im goning to assume you mean Evander Holyfield. Its true that it would be far too much punishment. But the real issue is that Drago could hit that hard to begin with. The part when they show like the pounds per inch of pressure or however they showed it, he was hitting harder than possible by any human. Still this was still better than Rocky V
I think that the the very first two were the best both were either four or three star movies while the rest received two stars which were fair movies.I don't it is a good idea to make another rocky movie because rocky five seemed to end on a decent note and to make another one would mess it up and would have a chain reaction of rocky movies trying to find an ending to the new rocky movie. the rocky movies had a plot and it ended when he finally called it quits in the last one over health reasons. some movies need to be left alone and to make another rocky movie is overkill just like making another Friday the 13th part 40 or something.

Yeah thats what I meant.Evander Holyfield.thanks for the correcting me on that.Yeah thats why I have always hated Rocky 4 even worse so than 5 because of not only what I just mentioned but what you just mentioned as well.Rocky 5 was more realistic and believeable.It just doesnt deserve to be called Rocky.Still I liked it better than 4.The street fight was pretty entertaining and it was different.
