Notes:

• Yay for character driven stories!
• The 1970's stuff was pretty cool to watch. I wonder if they thought that in the 1970's?
• Is it me or does Apollo Creed look like Lando Calrissian. Must be the 'fro 'stache combo.
• Rocky has cool glasses.
• Rocky also has a cool name. Bravo, parents.
• Why does his manager act like Popeye?
• Sylvester Stalones' lips rarely move throughout the movie, I think that's how he keeps that cig in his mouth while he talks.
• That training season with the Rocky music was all kinds of exciting.

Things I learned from Rocky:

• "They don't remember you, they remember the rep!"
• Punching meat should always be the answer.

Random quote:

• "She's got gaps, I've got gaps... together we fill gaps."

Conclusion:

Great movie! I didn't expect to like it as much as I did.
