Sylvester Stallone

Fred dives into a fascinating discussion about the classic film “Rocky.”

The actor’s declaration comes several years after he purchased a lavish $35 million mansion in Palm Beach.

Action movie superstar Sylvester Stallone told cinemagoers in Cannes that he never expected to make it in the film industry.

Seven Rocky pictures. Which Stallone is pretty much solely responsible for. Which made Hollywood exactly $1,285,192,797. Just so we’re clear, that’s 1.3 billion U.S. dollars. In the words of John Malkovich’s Russian character in “Rounders,” “Give dat man his Mah-neee!” No, wait—that’s what Stallone gave Hollywood. So—“Give dat man his Oscar!” Enough said.

With “Creed” knocking out audiences and critics alike, Michael B. Jordan acknowledges he would love to lace up the gloves again for a sequel.

“Creed” (Rocky number 7) carries the franchise full circle powerfully, with Balboa mentoring his greatest rival’s son.

There’s a scene in “Creed” where the latest brash boxer who challenges the upstart protege of Rocky Balboa barks, “No one cares about Balboa anymore!”

The Epoch Times film critic sifts through the 60–70 film offerings of November 2015, and picks five. The choices are based on which movies will have the most visibility and potential to impact culture, especially (but not always) in a positive way, and collates some critique excerpts from fellow reviewers from other news publications.
