Rocky IV about to start on Versus.

I will break you.

Thanks, MU, I didn't realize I got VS. I love the training montage in this flick. The juxtaposition of Rocky's old-school training and Drago's high-tech is great....I forgot they had a robot.

 

[Piotr Rasputin]

I must break you.

Fixed.

Little Known Fact: Andrei Kirilenko starred in this before he went off the HGH.

I forget what punching power Drago hits, but isn't it something that would punch a hole in a car door? That movie lost me a little because I knew if a human actually took those head shots, he'd have been way dead.

Not that Rocky wouldn't have died from the number of unblocked head shots in any of the other movies.

This movie has skewed my view of the Cold War. I don't recall the Berlin Wall coming down and the history that I know is from books and class. When I think of the Cold War ending I think of Rocky beating Drago and the post-fight speech.

I enjoy this movie when it's on, but this was the plunge into music video land. The soundtrack is great though; the lyrics to Burning Heart and No Easy Way Out are hilarious.

A great training montage, set to another bad 1980s tune, Heart's on Fire. Isn't this the only Rocky film in which some version of Gonna Fly Now is never heard?

If he dies, he dies.

I think we're going to need a montage. MONTAGE!!!!

One word: Brigitte.

Who am I? I'm the unsilent majority, bigmouth!

It's on again. Apollo and Drago are fighting right now.

Of course, if Stallone knew anything about the way the Soviets really trained, he'd know they didn't train in that kind of high-tech lab.

Great, now the movie isn't believable.

Whenever I see Barry Tompkins at college games I cover, I have to resist the urge to walk up and tell him how great he was in this movie.
