cavanami Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I said, "good". Sly wrote some of the movies. acted in them, directed some of them, went out and sold the movies to the studios. I give Sly "excellent" for the effort put forth and the talent to write them. From an artistic point of view...YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted February 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 The first Rocky was oustanding (Oscar for best picture). The screen play was written by Stallone himself. I can't distinguish the others but they are grade B flicks I think. Hallo, hallo, is there anyone in there? This thread is about First Blood not fecking Rocky. You to OH, stop talking about fecking Rocky. :onfire: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teddy Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I liked all of the Rocky movies because I like the boxing movie genre as a whole. Cinderella Man and Raging Bull are my favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckwoww Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Good but not excellent. First Blood kinda set the standard for action movies I think. It was well made and entertaining. The big problem for me was philosophical. It tried to be a serious look at the effects of the Vietnam War on US veterans but a lot of the action stuff was just farcical. Aiming at the gallery in other words. Which is OK but it doesn't win awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You to OH, stop talking about fecking Rocky. :onfire: [/quote'] I'm sorry, we were trying to have a conversation about artistic quality, as it relates to an integral part of this (crap) Rambo I. Mainly, we are taking note that Stallone was at 1 point capable of quality and such. You of course being a Stallone/Rambo fan, are obviously NOT capable of grasping this concept.

teddy Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Did you know that Stallone changed the picture on the front of Cliffhanger from this: to this: after the readership of some gay magazine voted it the horniest movie poster of some particular year. Munchie has that poster on his bathroom wall I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Hippie Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Yes, he does, and that would explain why he likes Rambo Movies...er same with what Teddy has told us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torneyboy Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 All Mediocre at best ..imo TB if you can't differentiate between the original Rambo movie and the sequels then I'm afraid . Due to Old Hippies comments that all Sly Stallone movies are crap (except the first Rocky) I feel compelled to poll the board members as to the crapness of one of my favourite movies. C'mon members, prove him wrong. MM where did i go wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
