4 thru 6 are punishment for not knowing anything about 1 thru 3.
Disagree, except for 6.
Rocky 4 was iconic. Filmed in 1985 during the Cold War. US vs USSR. Rocky vs Drago. I was 9 years old at the time it came out. We actually went to these kinds of movies at that age back then. I remember Drago being stuck with a steroid syringe. That defined my understanding of doping -- it was something bad that only the cheater commies did. Every time a Russian was kicked out of the Olympics for doping, it came as no surprise because of Rocky 4. Heck, even Ben Johnson was no surprise by the time the '88 Olympics came around. If you want a great 80's movie night, I highly recommend Rocky 4.... and Red Dawn (the original).
I thought Rocky 5 was pretty good too. Probably my least favorite of them, but still good. Tommy (Gunn) Morrison was great. Very sad story how it ended for him.
Wasn’t Tommy Morrison originally from Sparta TNDisagree, except for 6.
