WEBVTT

1
00:00:01.280 --> 00:00:10.400
It's the Lapsed fan Wrestling podcast.
Start the projector and three two one play

2
00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:21.519
M. There's the screaming metro goldwen
Meyer, Lion or somebody. I think

3
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:28.879
a lion starts when Hogan shows up
and the Lion of the bathroom. Oh

4
00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:33.880
man, that's this sound is putting
me in a particular ease mood. You'd

5
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:40.119
added artists, right, MGM,
U a other the one and the same,

6
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:46.320
Yeah, more or less? And
there MGM is such a fucking cluster.

7
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:53.840
Fuck now, it's all over the
place. MGM in there bullshit and

8
00:00:53.880 --> 00:01:00.920
they're bullshit like that. So many
different so many different studios own have licensing

9
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:07.920
to the to the fucking MGM franchise. Wow, look at the Ring Magazine

10
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.879
World Championship with the red, white
and blue tasseling or whatever on the sides.

11
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.959
The button tang almost weird, like
the fucking frills like it's a seventies

12
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:25.760
yep tuxedo. Yeah, I don't
so what the Ring Magazine they decided they

13
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:27.760
were. They're like the pre eminent
rankings body. So it's like who they

14
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:32.560
say is the number one contender is
accepted by most of boxing. I say,

15
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:38.959
as the top contender as we see
Rocky just pummel Apollo Creed. I

16
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.560
what I love about what's so funny
about the Rocky movies is that if you

17
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:51.040
you could actually just edit them together
and make one fucking like the first five

18
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:55.280
at least like an eight hour movie, because they always end, they always

19
00:01:55.319 --> 00:02:00.079
begin where the last one left off, like literally showing you class. Yeah,

20
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:08.400
exactly, and there is exactly yep. Look at his fucking face.

21
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:12.479
Look at look at Rockies. Look
at both of them. They're both beat

22
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:19.159
the fuck up. What a business? You're right, jeez. I forgot

23
00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:21.800
that Rocky punched him so hard at
the end of Rocky two that he too

24
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.599
fell over and had to answer the
ten count and the ring fells. God,

25
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:29.840
this good stuff. Yeah, I
mean sure that the end of the

26
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:34.840
fights are always good, but like
movies are just rough. Man, I

27
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.120
just can't do it. I try. I give it again. This one's

28
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:42.159
I like three. I probably like
three because there are three fights in it,

29
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:47.039
as opposed to a whole bunch of
bullshit movie before. Then you know,

30
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:58.240
like, seriously, you want him
coming home to you. He looks

31
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:04.280
like he looks like fucking the Boston
Scrooge too, the dick of Marley character.

32
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:07.639
You know, look at those old
timey champions on the on the belt.

33
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:13.680
They got these old portraits from like
nineteen twelve one. There's Mickey with

34
00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:19.000
the hearing aids in and here comes
I had the Tiger Baby, the movie

35
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:21.439
that made the song famous, right, that's right. I mean, well

36
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:25.280
that was written for this, written
for the movie. Yep, fireworks,

37
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:31.919
that's huge. I have the Tiger
leaders. Just Ry not a small rookie.

38
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:38.479
Is he even Helena Sell Helen?
That's the lighting break. So we're

39
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:46.120
singing Rocky Defender's title against mirrored opponents. Idiot, not a fan. Huh.

40
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.599
Bert Young, he's such a dick
in these movies. He dead.

41
00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.319
I think he's dead. Yeah,
he was shooting. I think he just

42
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:59.439
died. He came up recently as
if he was in the news. He

43
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.400
was. So we're seeing the Rocky
apparently at Radio City Music Hall making a

44
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:06.479
successful title defense. That's weird.
Now he's alive, he ain't dead.

45
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:13.680
Whoa. There's Clever Lang watching on
with a saucy look on his face as

46
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:17.720
Rocky Jesus uppercuts that guy almost into
the front row. Look at him,

47
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:21.480
Look at him? Look at Clever
Lang with those fucking a beast, the

48
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:27.600
feather ear rings. Yeah, yeah, we see the the changing marquee at

49
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:34.560
the airport and an airplane because he's
traveling the world. Pretty young, Jesus

50
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:43.560
Christ, everybody. Let's looking like
everyone's dads, everyone's grandfather old pictures of

51
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:47.480
Rocky Like he's an effective montage.
We're getting a lot across in like two

52
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:51.160
minutes here, because I guess he
was supposed to be champing for like three

53
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:58.879
years or whatever. Yeah, and
all because of Mickey, that fucker.

54
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:02.519
They keep I know, Micky,
that son of a bitch keeps zooming in

55
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:05.800
on that menacing clubber lang. I
mean, he's apparently travel he has the

56
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.040
money, apparently to travel the whole
world and follow the Rockies every title defense.

57
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:15.759
He's struggling. Here he is glistening, and uh, we're just bring

58
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:25.120
a sixth straight knockout. According to
that newspaper clipping great cast. Oh yeah,

59
00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:27.800
that's what you need. Like look, in the eighties, it was

60
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:30.560
about physique, wrestling plad us that
and the movies taught us that too.

61
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:33.279
It's not like wrestling was unique.
And it's why you fucking do a diet

62
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:40.959
where it's right eating part of an
oatmeal cookie rice and two scoops of tuna,

63
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:45.240
so you can look like you're a
fucking beast when you're probably on the

64
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:48.800
verge of dying. He does look
unhealthy here. I think in this movie

65
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:54.399
it's kind of fast. Is so
gaunt? Yeah, it's it's Wackle does

66
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:58.720
ad Ford Delore and that's hilarious.
And the Maserati Prinette's on GQ, they

67
00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:01.680
do a good job with this.
Looks real. Yeah, get Muppet Show

68
00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:06.000
is actually I guess it was his
real his real thing. But they re

69
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:11.680
dubbed one of the Muppets to say
Rocky instead of Stallone or whatever the fuck?

70
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:14.639
They said, Oh, that's fascinating. Yeah, yeah, because he

71
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:18.120
did do he did do a spot
on the Hey, you noticed the fans

72
00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:23.279
mobbing Celester Stallone looks kind of like
that, all those kids rushing Cogan.

73
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:28.800
I didn't you know, we didn't
we created that. We actually see what

74
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:31.959
happened was I suggested Stallone. I
said, Stallone, what you should do

75
00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:39.040
is you should have some some kids
kind of hounding you and whatever and who

76
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:45.040
are you from? Nsick man?
I don't know who you are. My

77
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:47.079
dad said no to the movie at
first, my dad said no to things,

78
00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:54.759
and I don't say no to you. Oh clutter Lang's bark and you

79
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.560
tell him nobody could beat me.
That is a Lee ask. He's try

80
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:00.439
to channel a Lee. Well,
if you would know, fucking mister T

81
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:05.000
would know. He's in black and
white for some reason, this movie sill

82
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:11.040
take place in the sixties, like
maybe two. I think most people have

83
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:14.800
color TVs by this point. You'd
be surprised. I guess my first TV

84
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:17.839
I gotten like eighty eight, and
it was black and white. I guess.

85
00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:20.279
I guess they're probably cheaper. You
know, he can be a cheaper

86
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:25.040
TV, right, not that full
color ship, right? You know?

87
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:32.079
Carl Weathers, So we've got a
Bert here is watching some news coverage of

88
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:40.480
Boboa's upcoming magic against wrestling champion Thunderlips. He's such a painty ass. He

89
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.040
fucks it all. If I'm not
mistaken, I think he fucks it all

90
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:47.480
up for Rocky. I think he's
in in five. I think he he

91
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:53.519
uh. I think he he he
gambles away all his money or something.

92
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:57.319
Yeah, something like that. I
don't know. Again, I don't care.

93
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.800
He's just riding Rockies coat tails here
on the are. He is the

94
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:07.040
ultimate coat tailor bitch, total bitch. When he starts to get mad,

95
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:11.120
then maybe Rocky doesn't appreciate all he's
done for him. Yeah, that kind

96
00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:15.839
of guy, you know, taking
a drag off a stogy hard hats in

97
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:18.720
the bar. So he's you know, Bert Young is still slumming it even

98
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:24.279
though, yeah, you can get
to fame and for it. Pollie Paullie.

99
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:26.800
Ye, well, when when Rocky
and Adrian are over in fucking Russia,

100
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:31.159
in Rocky for Paulie is fooled into
signing a power of attorney over to

101
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.639
Rocky's accountant, who then squanders all
of his money on a real estate deal.

102
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:39.159
Gone side. That's right a bit. Why don't you die? Right?

103
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.639
Why are you dressed like the guy
who managed the Fabulous Kangaroos. It's

104
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:48.200
like salt Weiner golf over here?
That fucking hat. Like, seriously,

105
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.679
Rocky's giving you all this fucking money
and you can't Yeah, what a pervert.

106
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:58.759
Honestly, he's gonna touch kids here. Hey, why is everyone dressed

107
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:03.159
up like wrestlers? I think it
was canvas Another cameo, Another wrestling cameo

108
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:09.480
on this movie. So many look
at the hat is just perverted. Was

109
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:13.279
he gonna get pissed off if there's
a Rocky pinball machine? Now, yes

110
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.639
he is. He's gonna throw shoot
at it with his flask. What a

111
00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:22.200
bitch he really is, his ungrateful
prick. Also buy a new hat like

112
00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:26.759
that's Rocky for twenty bucks and you
can get a new hat. Dumb fuck

113
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:33.080
you do throw the flask at the
pinball machine? I would yep, called

114
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:37.039
it, probably know it somewhere in
the recesses of my memory, but yeah,

115
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.679
I'm sure you know what I mean
that. I love that about movies.

116
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:41.879
It's like you remember them, but
you don't remember you remember them until

117
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.639
the scene comes back, and you
know what's funny. I don't know about

118
00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:48.840
you, but sometimes I've gone back
and rewatched movies that I used to watch

119
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.080
a lot as a kid, But
man, I don't remember shit about it.

120
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:56.320
Is that right, Yes, the
one the frequent flyers I tend to

121
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:01.679
recall. I used to watch the
movie Short Circuit a lot as a kid,

122
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.000
and I washed it not long ago, and I didn't remember anything that

123
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.480
happened. Nothing jog my memory except
for the main You know, the fucking

124
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:18.039
robot looks like a Rockies, biled
Paulie at a prison here? What hair?

125
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:24.840
Beautiful eighties hair? So that's just
alone. Oh yeah, textbook eighties

126
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:30.679
here with the tan suit yep,
does he have those? Fucking I wonder

127
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:31.960
if he's got those. I guess
my more seventies, but it's kind of

128
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:39.159
the end of the seventies. The
fucking elbow patches, the brown elbow patches

129
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:43.000
that are like big again. I've
seen a lot of suit coats with those

130
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:54.120
on these days. Oh what do
you do for Paulie? What about Paulie?

131
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:58.159
What about me? What about Raven? About the club? What about

132
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:01.000
the club? Oh? I used
to know? So I just alone,

133
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:09.240
we step up the claw. But
is there a reason that uh salt weiner

134
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:13.840
GoF just threw his rolex on the
ground in the parking garage at the police

135
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:18.159
station here? Why are you yelling
at him like a slide Go go go

136
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:20.399
get the police and bring him back, like, get him, put him

137
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.519
back in prison. He's a fucking
a man's gotta do something to keep one.

138
00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:31.080
It's a raving derrel like this guy. Man. Look at trim that

139
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:35.840
trim the top coat is look at
the gloves, very very snazzy. He's

140
00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:39.919
a fucking he's the most He's like
an eighties Macy's catalog. Oh seriously,

141
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:46.559
Like, honestly, it's like a
fucking It's like the eighties fucking jerked off

142
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.919
and out came. It's like the
Gifts for Him section of the Sears Wish

143
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:58.279
book. Hey, Hey, what
is that pin underneath his tie? Interesting?

144
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:03.000
That's very weird. You talk like
everybody ols you will live and he

145
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:07.639
says, what's his character's name again, Paulie. Paulie of course think Jersey

146
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.879
Shore. I think Jersey Shore,
right exactly. I think I think Sopranos,

147
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:13.720
Poulie Walnuts. There you go.
He was in this. Actually,

148
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.440
Bert Young was in the Sopranos had
he had a small part. He played

149
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:26.679
What the fuck was he? He
was? Uh uh? Bobby Back is

150
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:33.120
a dad I think in that Sopranos. Rocket just called on the jelly lazy,

151
00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:37.960
lazy bum and Paulie's taking like,
you want to fucking that's what you

152
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:41.399
want to do. You want to
definitely throw, you swing some, throw

153
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:52.080
some fucking punches. You gassed already, You're not worth loafers. Paulie is

154
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:58.440
the fucking worst, Like, like, why, honestly, that is that

155
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:01.919
that is the epitome of self distruction? Is Pauli in least? Yes,

156
00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:07.639
because he's that guy. He's that
person that you the toxic individual who you

157
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.679
just can't get rid of because deep
down you don't think you're worth anything.

158
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:15.840
So you keep him around. And
he knows that about yes, and plays

159
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:20.519
off that, exactly lives off of
it, exactly knows what button to push

160
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.879
at the right moment to stay attached
to you. Yep, codependency, tons

161
00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:28.080
of problems. Fuck, it looks
like that's what Rocky's about to do with.

162
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:33.600
He's gonna take her. David Letterman
ask him if this went down for

163
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:39.600
real too? The cls, the
blows you took in the ring were real?

164
00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:43.000
Did you do your own stunts in
that fucking sack as well? Slide

165
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.559
no, no, slid? Did
she you know you took the blows?

166
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:50.559
But did she blow you right?
That is the question. That is the

167
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:54.240
question. Is this supposed to endear
me to Rocky? That they're singing to

168
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.360
each other here? Because it feels
my time is being wasted? What about

169
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.639
you? And can we get to
the wrestling match? Please? You get

170
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:05.720
the thunder lips. I'm not talking
about Adrian. What about Adrian? Did

171
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.120
she go on to any filmic success? Oh my god, it's fucking Connie

172
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:13.960
Corleone. Ladies and gentlemen. She's
she's uh, she'll be featured again.

173
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.399
She's she's not going anywhere. I'll
tell you that on under the Cinemat.

174
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:20.840
She will be featured for a while. Now. She's she's great, tell

175
00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:24.159
you she's awesome. Yeah, in
the three Godfather movies. There we go,

176
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:30.120
yep, up here it is the
battle of the champion wi the box

177
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:31.879
were against the wrestler. Is this
our announcer? Here is Dennis James.

178
00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:35.120
Ladies and gentlemen, Dennis James.
Them in a moment they do get We

179
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:37.279
get a shot of him. There
he is right there on the road,

180
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:43.879
looking dapper, with a carnation on
his on his lapel. Come on,

181
00:14:45.559 --> 00:14:48.320
Rock, yellow Robe with the black
trend Rock. There's Mick Rock. I

182
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.200
got my fucking hand on my cock. All right, let's killing this ship.

183
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:56.799
This guy weighs eighteen thousand pounds.
He's a fucking fake. We don't

184
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:00.519
need to know this ship. I'm
gonna sit here and I'm gonna I'm gonna

185
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:07.039
act like the penguin. Well,
see the mustache behind mister James, there

186
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:15.759
comes he'd be They think they think
someone's carrying Hogan. No one carries Actually

187
00:15:15.759 --> 00:15:18.519
people need to carry Hogan. Actually
Okay, yeah, ready, Savage did

188
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:22.600
look, I'm coming after you,
Balboa. Think of a nation for the

189
00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:26.559
first time laying eyes on Hult Cogan
and the big screen in nineteen eighty two

190
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:30.399
across this country. And just wait, and it's not even the moment yet.

191
00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:33.000
The moment is coming up. I
mean, you see him, he's

192
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:35.000
you know, you can tell he's
big, but you don't know how big

193
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:39.440
he is yet? Right, And
that championship belt was one created specifically for

194
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:43.360
the film, Oh, I know, selling replicas of it on the Hogan's

195
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:48.399
Beat Shop website for six hundred dollars. Right now it looks like the old

196
00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.759
NBA US title. Yeah, or
the TV title too. Thunder Lips is

197
00:15:52.799 --> 00:16:00.480
here. He's talking into a microphone
hanging from the ceiling. Male versus the

198
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:07.879
Ultimate Meatball food again on that cast. I know there it is again,

199
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:15.320
James, what what's his name?
Dennis James? Idiot? Is he in

200
00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:21.639
the Kenneth Kenneth Brana's Puio and liver
on? The owner expressed Jesus Christ.

201
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:27.080
Look at how getting this pump on
biceps, biggest arms in the world.

202
00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:30.519
This is great. Look at him
before he was bald. Yeah, I

203
00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:38.200
know right, it's look at hair
that's going fast. He can see on

204
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:41.600
the only didn't Stalone induct Hogan into
the Hall of Fame? Yes he did,

205
00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:45.960
Yes, he did. Absolutely,
there's like a jam and Vince and

206
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:49.399
Hogan posing. That's an interesting mad
effect on the camera. That must have

207
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:53.759
been my mistake. I think that's
probably some kind of lens flair. Yeah,

208
00:16:55.320 --> 00:17:00.279
so Hogan thunder lips has been introduced. We turn now to shut it

209
00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:07.839
still break him in half, gesturing
into the crowd menacingly of course, what

210
00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:19.200
a mustache. I can't even deal
with it. Rocky Rocky Balboa with the

211
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:22.720
classic Art Jimmerson mistake, thinking he
can grapple with boxing gloves on. That's

212
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:26.000
just not not gonna happen. Put
you at a disadvantage, not at an

213
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:33.000
advantage. Wait for it now,
look at it. Wow, size of

214
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:37.240
him. Wow, fucking Christ,
that's the money shot. You cut off

215
00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:48.200
the top of Hogan's heads exactly the
frame, beautifully shot. Huh Yeah,

216
00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:52.400
Rocky saying we need to get a
polaroid together after this match, he's still

217
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.240
in a charity frame of mind,
right, No, Hogan, Hogan is

218
00:17:55.279 --> 00:18:00.000
in a steel chair frame of mind. It's like you may have worked him

219
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.880
health into a shoot. Here.
You're looking for the double cross, the

220
00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:07.599
gorgeous George John Eagle double cross.
There's the referee on all the flesh.

221
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:14.799
Look at double miss. But he's
ready. He's fucking prosy poised to attack.

222
00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:22.240
Good move pretty first for a big
Doug, you know, Pat Patterson,

223
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.680
all right, look at this.
He's talking through spots with Hogan,

224
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.400
because that's about talking, right about
communication in the ring, trusting your opponent.

225
00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:34.680
There it is. That's the forearm
to the back that he talked about,

226
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:38.359
and that blooded his face when he
landed on Hogan's cowboy boot and another

227
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:41.000
sledge and down goes Man. Did
they hit that sound effect? Or what?

228
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:48.240
Oh? Yeah, thunders christ something? Look at uh Robert Goula over

229
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:52.680
there? Yeah, corner to corner
on the whip. I don't know if

230
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.400
they teach you how to take a
buckle in boxing, how do you learn

231
00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:57.440
how to fall off? How do
you learn how to how you learn how

232
00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:03.240
to work with Hulk Hogan? Right? I believe Sylvester Stallone just took a

233
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:06.640
Bill out of the corner with a
face lock taken down. Look at that.

234
00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:11.319
He's learning the those moves from Japan. There it is a power slam,

235
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:17.240
crushes sly into the canvas. Not
for the meats. Want to cover

236
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:19.799
him. I'd be like, I
want to face Hogan. I want to

237
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:26.359
face he's taking careful notes. Oh
back, backbreaker, Jesus the child,

238
00:19:26.480 --> 00:19:32.759
it's fake, but here it is. It's pretty wild that he was dropping

239
00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:36.519
the leg in eighty one. I
know, huh, but it's not finishing.

240
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:44.400
He's still saying husha. Even in
the movie Big Soup Lex beautiful.

241
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:48.720
Okay, there are some of the
best moves I've ever seen Holkngy Right,

242
00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:51.559
this is the best wrestling he's ever
done. That's because they fucking took like

243
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:56.119
four hours to do it. Probably
you know, it's incredible stuff. Man,

244
00:19:55.920 --> 00:20:03.200
Fuck my god. He's always call
around the ring and he gets tossed.

245
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:07.200
That's where Spike Dudley got the idea
for him to get gorilla press in

246
00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:15.880
the audience and their pepper with a
Jesus used to this. Hogan was the

247
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:21.400
third man in eighty one. Apparents
and there goes Earl Happener ref takes the

248
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:26.119
bump as well. Britius. Meredith
is dying. Yes, yeah, this

249
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:33.319
is where the stuff holcus Holkus striking
policeman and security guards. He still wants

250
00:20:33.359 --> 00:20:38.240
Balpom. The gloves off. The
gloves are off, zoo. It's a

251
00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:42.400
wrestling ring, of course. It's
like the or true God? Is that

252
00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:49.119
whoa looks like one of the the
ring card girls in her bikini was even

253
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:55.400
involved in the tussle. Brig Meredith
is like, oh, losing his ship.

254
00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:59.079
This is Balboa is not happy to
see Rocky now gloveless. He's just

255
00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:03.440
got the tail on. Come on, brother, I changed the finish dude,

256
00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:11.440
go over Terry's back in side,
race to the gut. You want

257
00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:14.279
to fight for real? Oh?
He goozled him. Hogan has got him

258
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:22.240
in the goozle pay with the chair. A wooden chair smash is across Hogan's

259
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:30.519
back and he knows sounds. Oh
he's all right. Bumps for his career

260
00:21:32.200 --> 00:21:40.160
were naked choke by Rocky Balboa taking
the cat. Come on, thunderlips scrambling

261
00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:45.599
for refuge, locking burgess Meredith here
is Mickey is might as well be fucking

262
00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:52.119
uh Harley Race, come on god, our faithful announcer saying Rocky is hanging

263
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:56.200
on like a bull terrier. He's
calling on the old wrestling at the merry

264
00:21:56.200 --> 00:22:00.519
goal, I guess vocabulary. Hogan
drops to an he's fighting, and look

265
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:08.200
at this Balboa releases the hole to
go to work body shot. Fucking I

266
00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:15.720
Then the power slam. Look at
this rock cross shift. He's wobbly.

267
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:22.240
Holk's gonna take the bump. Wow
boom slammed of Hogan's career right there.

268
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:27.279
It really is. The skyscraper has
been counted out of the ring. Where

269
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:30.359
been thrown out of the ring.
And I'm gonna say that's probably just qualification

270
00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:33.319
if I'm not mistaken. Yeah,
what is this? Bill Watts w W

271
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:37.079
well a w A. They did
that too, They did the yeah that's

272
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:40.960
true. Good point. That was
actually more the rule than the exception.

273
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:45.279
In the early eighties, Hogan being
fanned down by his uh many, his

274
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:49.039
harem of women, one of them, Linda, I didn't check that out.

275
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:55.880
I should have seen pretty good stuff, good match, that crazy,

276
00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:06.160
tremendous for the fake. There was
a yeah sure from Terry, Yeah sure,

277
00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:08.359
yeah there is there's like the undercurrent
of see it's all fun in games

278
00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:18.759
here and Walter Matthow takes the photo
Rocky alcohol bad, not bad, no

279
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:22.240
very good, showing good stuff.
We see the back of the mansion,

280
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:30.119
their Reaganomics mansion here we're told by
that newspaper clipping that Rocky and Thunderlips wrote

281
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:34.160
raised seventy five thousand dollars for charity
in that tussle there. I mean,

282
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:42.079
it's not good even for you expect
the world champion boxer back then to fucking

283
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:45.839
at least bring in one hundred thousand. Well they did bring in three times

284
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:49.519
what Hogan got paid to do the
b That's a good point, is selvester

285
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.960
Stalone riding a model T or is
my my eyes deceiving me? It's a

286
00:23:55.000 --> 00:24:00.519
model of a model T right,
look at you got this fucking beautiful room,

287
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:03.319
you know, I look at him
and then Paulie sitting there like a

288
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:12.599
bitch in his fucking wife beater idiot. That is the exact chandelier you would

289
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:18.920
expect a poor Italian kid from Philly
to buy. And that same fucking wallpaper

290
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:25.480
like that's you know, I saw, you know the wallpaper like that,

291
00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:26.960
you know a little bit of money, and I figured, you know,

292
00:24:27.119 --> 00:24:32.960
I think it looks really nice.
God. Yeah, he's way too lean.

293
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:40.440
It's almost not even muscular. You
know. He looks it's good for

294
00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:41.920
for like you said, looking ripped. But when he's got regular clothes on,

295
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:45.680
he looks like a like he's trying
to be a model more than a

296
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.759
box. And this is one of
my biggest pet peeves of any movie.

297
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:52.720
I hate when they play the theme
music of the movie in the movie,

298
00:24:52.759 --> 00:25:00.039
like it's a real song. I
counts in that world. Yeah, and

299
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:04.599
about to get the controversial A glimpse
of the controversial statue here, Yeah,

300
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:11.759
says well documented earlier, and enter
the ciniment and this is Oh, there

301
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:15.799
was a shit you know, I'm
going to read it while we're doing this.

302
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:19.359
Yeah. Sure, there was an
email. We got an email actually

303
00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:26.839
about this, and I remembered from
Matt some local trivia. He says,

304
00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:30.720
I'm looking forward to this. I
grew up in the same neighborhood as stallone,

305
00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:33.319
and we both went to Lincoln High
School three decades apart, so I'm

306
00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:38.759
basically like an expert. In nineteen
seventy eight, he filmed a scene at

307
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:42.359
Lincoln's auditorium for Rocky two, which
he finally gets his diploma, and we

308
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:47.039
first learned that Rocky's real name is
Robert, but it was never used in

309
00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:51.200
the movie and no video footage exists. All that remains is a single frame

310
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:56.440
on a bubblegum card from nineteen seventy
nine attached. Wow funny. The story

311
00:25:56.480 --> 00:25:59.880
goes that Stallone felt so bad about
the scene being cut that he gave Lincoln

312
00:25:59.880 --> 00:26:02.680
to TV Time and Rocky three.
In the scene right here, that's the

313
00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:06.599
Lincoln band, Lincoln Marching Bone.
Oh, yes, that's right. Is

314
00:26:06.599 --> 00:26:08.920
they had to be able to statue. They they aren't really identified, so

315
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:12.839
they are they're they're they're they're signed
there, their logo, the name is

316
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:17.640
on the thing. And then he
gives some photos so Matt, you know,

317
00:26:17.920 --> 00:26:21.839
Matt j she he gave some stuff
there, and he gave some photos

318
00:26:21.839 --> 00:26:26.839
and stuff like that, and I
guess he says that he calls many times.

319
00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:30.759
In high school, people would mention
Stallan used to go there and that

320
00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:36.680
he was put in the slow classes
because they they thought he was quote unquote

321
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:41.279
retarded, right repeatedly for years.
It was kind of like this weird thing,

322
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:45.000
like basically, our fucking retort won
an Academy Award. Well he didn't.

323
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:51.319
He didn't win nominated, so the
movie retard the movie one, but

324
00:26:51.400 --> 00:26:53.519
he didn't win. So not my
word, that was the word in the

325
00:26:53.559 --> 00:27:00.000
email. Yes, channeling the language
of the time. Yes, indeed,

326
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:04.279
so Rocky taking the podium upon the
unveiling of a statue. Now, it's

327
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:07.720
like, it's kind of funny,
like I know when you think about it

328
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:12.960
in terms of the of the of
the movie itself, like the steps,

329
00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:18.079
why do they fucking matter to the
city of Philadelphia? They matter to movie

330
00:27:18.079 --> 00:27:22.640
audiences that he that's what's famous about
it. Like nobody was fucking there when

331
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:25.839
he climbed the steps and Rocky won, that's true, you know, Like

332
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:27.559
you know, if he wins the
world titled you imagine he'd do a bunch

333
00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:33.640
of interviews about how and where he
trained. I guess why don't they put

334
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:37.079
the fucking then, why don't they
put the fucking statue in the in the

335
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:41.279
meatpacking plan, where the fuck that
was? You know, boxing the stakes

336
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:45.920
and ship and the carcasses of the
cows. At least we get the food.

337
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:51.599
Back's right? He just suggested he
might retire. Looks leave Adrian here

338
00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:56.759
comes clever Lang. Don't give the
suck it out statue, give him guts.

339
00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:03.119
Jesus, what a what a what
a ag totally is got the hell

340
00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:11.720
out of here, go on shooting
an angle. I mean that's the loan's

341
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:15.720
wearing nice pinstripe suit right here.
You know, you've got a big mount,

342
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:26.279
you know, whoa whoa Yeah,
this is it? Like this is

343
00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:29.839
it? It's great, it's and
and team makes a good point with it,

344
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:33.920
you know, talking about how he's
been you know here he is this

345
00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:38.559
this this, you know this this
incredible fighter, this tough fighter who has

346
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:48.799
not been given a chance, and
he's hungry. Absolutely, he makes a

347
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:56.799
claim, makes the claim that that
that Rocky has been fighting set up opponents,

348
00:28:56.160 --> 00:29:07.880
not real contenders for the title,
which Mickey doesn't want Club to get

349
00:29:07.880 --> 00:29:14.839
a shot. And Sylvester is like, what were you talking about? Mm

350
00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:22.200
hm, he doesn't. Mickey's finished. He doesn't want anything to do with

351
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:25.359
being pulled into a fight with this
clever Lang character. We're just merried it

352
00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:34.119
mouth man, how the hell that
he survived? Oh he's inviting Adrian to

353
00:29:34.359 --> 00:29:45.119
uh to junob take a he he
wants to clubver her Lang perfect angle.

354
00:29:45.200 --> 00:29:49.680
I mean, this is seventies per
wrestling, you know, pull apart,

355
00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:56.200
goes the heel, goes too far, kind of goes below the belt and

356
00:29:56.519 --> 00:29:59.559
try to get under the skin of
the challenger and draw him out to give

357
00:29:59.640 --> 00:30:03.559
him a show off the title,
and Rocky is beside himself as they returned

358
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:22.519
to the Man's Furious He's Lapsed fan
Wrestling podcast with Jack and jo It's the

359
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:34.480
Lapsed Fan Wrestling Podcast. He walk
away because it's true, rock We're going.

360
00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:41.799
I wonder why they called him what
Matt said. They called him We're

361
00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:48.000
going, We're going come back?
Why? Now? Why does it?

362
00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:52.319
Mickey? He thinks Rocky should retire, But why is he so mad about

363
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:59.559
him fighting? You can't because he's
been setting up, setting up the fights.

364
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:03.480
I think he just said, this
guy will kill you to death.

365
00:31:03.119 --> 00:31:15.480
That's it's hungry. I'm hunger now, I'm fucking starving. But it didn't

366
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:18.279
make me want to win a fight. Yeah, Hogan isn't hungry. You

367
00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:23.720
just had a large Italian a small
one too for that man. Yeah,

368
00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:26.519
Mickey tayling Rocky that he's been setting
him up ever since he won the title.

369
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:32.519
Nobody like clubb Lang. Yeah,
over. I guess a lot of

370
00:31:33.160 --> 00:31:38.680
has been fighters name recognition, but
not not a chance to win what we

371
00:31:38.799 --> 00:31:44.400
like to call legends here at World
Wrestling Entertainment. They did have legend legend

372
00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:55.079
uh legend contracts in the World Boxing
Federation. The originally the original WBS really

373
00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:57.759
been a legends night ever since Bell
Bubba won the title, a big,

374
00:31:57.880 --> 00:32:05.640
long ass legends night. Well,
they have like I don't know, I

375
00:32:05.680 --> 00:32:12.039
don't know old boxers Jack Johnson,
Oh, yes, of course, Jack

376
00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:23.839
Johnson, Floyd Patterson or Pat Patterson, Mike Tyson, Steve Austin, Thank

377
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:30.119
you, a real pugilist. Do
you think he had the pugilistic deconments?

378
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:40.440
Pugilistic decands sounds like a fucking medical
condition. Well, you know, I

379
00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:47.000
gotta tell you we uh, I'm
gonna diagnose you with pugilistic decays. Well

380
00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:52.240
you know, I gotta tell you
what a doctor the fuck? Well,

381
00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:58.640
you know, I gotta tell you
you have cancer. I'll tell you this

382
00:32:58.759 --> 00:33:00.559
is gonna be rough for me telling
you this, but you've got some pugilistic

383
00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:06.519
decadence. He's your son. I
don't know what I can do about that.

384
00:33:08.279 --> 00:33:12.960
He's probably just reverting to a state
of childhood dependence. Take him home,

385
00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:16.079
introduce him to the kid. Childhood
pugilistic decadence is what it is,

386
00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:21.519
not dependix. So Mickey's having a
heart to heart on the couch here with

387
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:24.759
Rocky, and I find myself struggling
to care. Boss. Yes, let's

388
00:33:24.759 --> 00:33:28.240
get on with the fight. I
don't care about character in this movie.

389
00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:32.680
I care about fighting. Where's Hulk
Hogan's gone? Now we can wrap it

390
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:37.519
up if that's what you're waiting for, Just not the movie. Now,

391
00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:42.960
there's one more WrestleMania, one participant
together belt here and to win a belt

392
00:33:43.000 --> 00:33:46.599
too for that matter. Spoiler alert, Sorry those of you not what I've

393
00:33:46.599 --> 00:33:53.559
never seen Rocky tah before the clever
ling wins, got it? Yeah,

394
00:33:54.839 --> 00:34:05.599
cluver Los twist table for long.
Fritz Lang also with clubber Lang descended of

395
00:34:05.640 --> 00:34:10.119
Fritz German tour. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're gonna fight in the

396
00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:17.880
Metropolis later tonight. Exactly. I
think that's the clubber Lang is the nostu

397
00:34:19.880 --> 00:34:25.960
So wait a minute. Rocky trains
at a hotel. He's got to promote

398
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:31.599
ship. Look at this cardboard cutouts
of the man balloons everywhere, A ring

399
00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:39.280
set up in the middle of this
hotel ballroom. Look at that got hockster.

400
00:34:40.079 --> 00:34:45.000
Yeah, I know, pushing merch. Oh. They even have the

401
00:34:45.199 --> 00:34:51.840
inflatable sand bottom punching bags that I
used to have. There's music, there's

402
00:34:51.920 --> 00:35:00.280
food, there's spirits Hodge, there's
a Leroy Naman paintings going on here.

403
00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:07.880
Paul he looking like a bitch.
Yeah, he always looks like an idiot.

404
00:35:08.159 --> 00:35:13.800
He always looks like he's slinging fried
dough, doesn't He totally is like,

405
00:35:14.039 --> 00:35:22.519
that's what you'd rather be doing now
anyway, Rocky but me, But

406
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:27.280
we know who pro Wrestling's version is
of this cat. Yes, rec Rocky

407
00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:38.800
is Leon Vader White God. Mickey
says, this is a bullshit area to

408
00:35:38.840 --> 00:35:42.639
work out. I feel like I
feel like maybe was Burgess Meredith. This

409
00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:46.280
is a mom who had the double
four steps in her fucking pussy because it's

410
00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:52.280
all in the place half of his
face, you know. So here's the

411
00:35:52.360 --> 00:36:00.119
contrast, right, Rocky is hitting
the bag, Sam, Die Paulieu and

412
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:07.800
die Worthless idiot. You found the
rambow headband. Oh, Sweaty a blonder

413
00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:12.519
heck on the cheek, Tya Shirely, Fuck you bitch. She doesn't love

414
00:36:12.559 --> 00:36:20.039
that. Look at this Mickey's telling
Rocky he's gonna kill him. And so

415
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:22.360
what we're doing is we're juxtaposing shots
of Rocky having this, you know,

416
00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:28.320
kind of performative training session in a
fancy hotel ballroom with clubver Lang alone,

417
00:36:29.599 --> 00:36:32.400
just killing his abs with sit ups, hitting the bag as hard as he

418
00:36:32.480 --> 00:36:40.960
can, and Rocky is literally dancing
bubbles in the air. Idiot Italian stallion

419
00:36:42.079 --> 00:36:45.920
Right, like you said, this
is like, you know, this reminds

420
00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:51.800
me of kind of uh, the
restumating a twelve build. Yes, it's

421
00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:58.880
also very reminiscent of Rocky Brock at
Summer Slam two thousand and two. Yeah,

422
00:36:58.960 --> 00:37:02.480
you're right, the kind of sports
you put the training footage side by

423
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:08.159
side and draw inferences about what their
respective strength will be from their training regiments

424
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:12.760
of Rocky being we're going to running
the lake and pulling Mickey behind him on

425
00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:24.519
the Bicyclecky, Yeah, feeling strong. Look at him. That's stallone ejaculating

426
00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:40.519
you do. That was well coming. Right, So, now the the

427
00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:46.320
crowd has left the ballroom and Rocky's
putting in that real work catch pneumonia.

428
00:37:46.840 --> 00:37:50.920
Why is it not heated in there? Must not be? Oh he has

429
00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:53.639
got two point nine percent body fat. So he's probably just fucking freezing.

430
00:37:54.199 --> 00:37:57.599
You know, as I look at
Rocky's color scheme on his outfit, there

431
00:37:57.719 --> 00:38:00.280
is his tights. How can kind
of wore those colors in the A W

432
00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:05.039
A black and yellow? Yeah,
when I think about it, Yeah,

433
00:38:05.440 --> 00:38:09.079
so he I know the other guys
wearing red, the red, hung yellow.

434
00:38:09.960 --> 00:38:12.880
He just ran with this whole movie
all the way to the bank.

435
00:38:12.920 --> 00:38:15.840
He really did. Oh totally,
this is it man, This is the

436
00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:20.280
spark, like you said, of
the whole thing. And yeah, oh

437
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:30.880
without a doubt, without a doubt, doble becking, and here I don't

438
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:37.400
know. It's this San Jose.
Is this the cow palace? You're rangy

439
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:42.320
ranging you, You're in the best
name of your career and always hard hitting

440
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:53.639
questions from Yeah, what kind of
camera is that? M I want to

441
00:38:53.639 --> 00:38:57.559
be alone. They have cornered Clever
Lang in the middle in some part of

442
00:38:57.559 --> 00:39:01.760
the building him not be photographed.
He's like, I want to be alone,

443
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:06.519
and you keep cornering him. They
keep sucking, going closer and closer,

444
00:39:06.519 --> 00:39:08.320
and it's like you're gonna die.
This guy's gonna kill all of you.

445
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:13.800
How about giving him an actual fucking
locker room instead of putting him in

446
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:21.360
a room with lockers, right,
which is a big difference. There is

447
00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:27.360
there's Apollo. He was asking himself. Yeah he was in our last out

448
00:39:27.400 --> 00:39:31.199
of the cinemat too, Remember was
a dieard? When I call the guy,

449
00:39:31.280 --> 00:39:37.800
Carl weathers, yeah, no,
he'll be in a couple of future

450
00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:40.480
ones. I'll tell you that.
But what was the guy's name? From

451
00:39:40.559 --> 00:39:54.199
Family Matters? Reginald Phil Johnson?
A couple of Carl Carl Winslow. Awesome,

452
00:39:54.440 --> 00:39:58.119
of course, Carl Weather's greatest performance
did you ask me? Is an

453
00:39:58.159 --> 00:40:04.000
arrested development? Have you seen it? I know what you're talking about.

454
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:09.119
Oh my god, he's so fucking
great. He talks about like eating a

455
00:40:09.239 --> 00:40:13.880
burger king and you can get free
refills. I don't you. It's about

456
00:40:14.039 --> 00:40:19.920
food. It's always about food.
So clubb Lane confronting Rocky in the hallway.

457
00:40:21.159 --> 00:40:22.280
You're washed up. I'm the best, all the best in the world,

458
00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:30.519

00:40:40.119 --> 00:40:45.159
gold buck me In's out of a
bitch. Yeah, well he comes a

462
00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:51.000
heart attack. It's like Tim Sheridan. That's what he's gonna look like when

463
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:57.159
he's eighty. Yeah, Adrian beside
herself in her fur coat. She's living

464
00:40:57.239 --> 00:41:00.559
the life. She loves it.
Oh yeah, you know tells you you

465
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:01.519
know, damn well, like you
know, she talks about it later,

466
00:41:01.599 --> 00:41:07.960
but you know, damn fucking well, she would be a miserable little wench

467
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:12.239
if he if she didn't have that
money coming in. You know it.

468
00:41:12.880 --> 00:41:15.719
Come on, I didn't sacrifice all
of this just to give it away.

469
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:21.519
Rocky, You're not the only one
making a sacrifice here. Mickey's does not

470
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:23.800
look well. He is clammy.
He is pretty. Say you say he's

471
00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:30.639
like on the juice. Not well, Jesus Christy, look at him.

472
00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:35.639
This is kind of like I think
of a wrestling angle where like the old

473
00:41:35.719 --> 00:41:45.480
guy. Well, it's kind of
like it's like Gordon Solely and Morocco and

474
00:41:45.599 --> 00:41:55.639
Piper and whatever. God the movie
that spawned a million angles promos ideas of

475
00:41:55.960 --> 00:42:04.079
like promotional confrontations. It's all here, the raw material. Get this raw

476
00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:07.360
ross speech for Rickey, Get out

480
00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:31.639
he was born in nineteen o seven. Rocky with one last entreaty to

481
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:37.440
Adrian to take care of his beloved
trainer, and he lays eyes on him,

482
00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:38.760
perhaps for the final time, as
he makes his way to the ring

483
00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:49.360
and clubber Lang and Rocky Balbo went
now in the ring for me. He

484
00:42:49.480 --> 00:42:58.480
was even nominated for the Original Rocky
renouncer introducing Apollo Creed to the live audience

485
00:42:58.519 --> 00:43:07.320
here refusing to shake the hand.
No has been That's right, Paula Creed

486
00:43:07.440 --> 00:43:08.840
is a bitch. That's right right
in his face. What do you can

487
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:27.119
do about it? Reginald Johnson cool
m the south Side Slugger. Yeah,

488
00:43:27.159 --> 00:43:30.559
he was nominated. He was nominated

00:43:30.559 --> 00:43:39.960
Supporting Actor he was nominated. Sloan
Talia Shire Bert Young even nominated for Best

490
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:45.960
Supporting Actor. Look at that,
oh your favorite? You know you're still

491
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:51.159
a bitch then, so fuck it
still looks like a guy who drives his

492
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:54.639
mother to doctor's appointments every Tuesday and
takes it and and takes a little payday

493
00:43:54.679 --> 00:43:59.039
from her. Yeah, yeah,
right, yep, Mom's got to come

494
00:43:59.079 --> 00:44:07.079
out of pocket for the through lunch. On the way back, Jimmy Lennon

495
00:44:07.159 --> 00:44:14.599
on the ring announcing, No,
I'm not sure that ring announcer's definitely still

496
00:44:14.639 --> 00:44:19.159
the trainer here for Yeah, there
he is. Now that is that's Jimmy

497
00:44:19.199 --> 00:44:23.559
Lennon Senior. I think you see? Is that Jimmy Lennon. I don't

498
00:44:23.599 --> 00:44:28.400
know that's what you're talking about?
Famous ring announcer and boxing. You can't

499
00:44:28.400 --> 00:44:34.320
be that famous. I'm senior.
Yeah, that is him. There we

500
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:42.079
go, pretty Marty Dankin presiding that
come to center. Are sure it's not

501
00:44:42.679 --> 00:44:50.159
Buddy Hackett who the referee? I'm
not sure. Actually, we'll see if

502
00:44:50.239 --> 00:44:55.079
Rocky Balboa can hack it here against
medicine Cluver Lang curious he did hack it

503
00:44:55.159 --> 00:45:02.039
with thunder lips early wrong. Clubb
just referenced meat again, guys, he's

504
00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:07.880
hungry, after all. It's not
forget that Jack. Is that Jack Lemon

505
00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:15.199
as well? In Rocky's corner,
Jack Lemon and mathout together. That's the

506
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:22.039
problem. That's why he loses.
Well, they are wearing yellow clubber looks

507
00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:30.719
ready. He's bouncing on the Bob
Coddle on commentary to Jesus Christ underway,

508
00:45:31.800 --> 00:45:37.199
Jesus Rocky comes out swinging indiscriminately.
He's head hunting here. He's here.

509
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:43.320
He wants to beat Tim down.
This like ruins boxing in so many ways.

510
00:45:43.400 --> 00:45:45.239
To think that punches make this sound
when they land, well, also

511
00:45:45.519 --> 00:45:50.840
to think that punch is fucking like. Nobody fights like this in box nobody.

512
00:45:51.239 --> 00:45:54.320
There's no defense their their necks are
being turned around with every shot.

513
00:45:55.360 --> 00:46:00.280
God, put your hands out.
The whiplash here is there's there's no pausing

514
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:07.480
right, not at all. No
dancing is just no punch. Oh clever.

515
00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:12.039
Lang's coming from downtown with those,
there's no discipline there. He's taking

516
00:46:12.079 --> 00:46:17.000
him back to the south Side.
And they're real in mind boxing, yep,

517
00:46:17.719 --> 00:46:22.800
real fucking haymakers. And look at
that Jesus Christ. He's looking like

518
00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:25.440
and it's letting him hit him like, put your hands up, pal,

519
00:46:27.159 --> 00:46:30.320
He doesn't know where he is.
One bell sounds mercifully as Lang lands one

520
00:46:30.679 --> 00:46:36.280
more stiff left hook and h Paula
Creed looks nonplussed. I'll tell you,

521
00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:42.280
Paul, because you know why he's
embarrassed. Right. That's it. Man,

522
00:46:42.360 --> 00:46:44.880
when somebody beats you for the rest
of your life, you root for

523
00:46:44.920 --> 00:46:52.639
that person so you look okay by
comparison. He's too strong. You don't

524
00:46:52.679 --> 00:47:00.679
smoke him. I can't get him
off a panic Rocky Balboa breathlessly telling his

525
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:04.440
corner he can't do it. Do
they care enough to keep him alive?

526
00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:07.639
Mickey? No, they get up
on him. Yeah, I say that,

527
00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:12.280
just as we see the vitals.
Rugget get out of here. I'm

528
00:47:12.320 --> 00:47:15.719
dead, call them Morgan? Is
there symbolism and his trainer dying as he's

529
00:47:15.719 --> 00:47:19.639
getting killed in the ring? Ah? Yes, there is actually thank you,

530
00:47:20.880 --> 00:47:23.920
especially later too. Is that Hogan's
hat? I thought I saw some

531
00:47:24.159 --> 00:47:27.960
pink feathers. I thought it surprised
me if he was a vip here.

532
00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:30.519
I mean they did raise seventy five
grand together. Oh Jesus, And now

533
00:47:30.559 --> 00:47:34.679
it's the right hooks of cluver Lag
loading them up. Where are the hands?

534
00:47:35.119 --> 00:47:37.360
What are you guys doing? Why? Punches? Just letting him take

535
00:47:37.400 --> 00:47:39.719
him out? First of all,
they would have stopped this fight, oh

536
00:47:39.840 --> 00:47:45.320
four hundred punches ago, but no
standing out count Jesus christ it's kind of

537
00:47:45.400 --> 00:47:52.440
ridiculous. Put your hands up.
Look at him sitting duck and they paused,

538
00:47:52.960 --> 00:47:55.920
oh oh, here we go,
laying loads up in slow mo and

539
00:47:57.159 --> 00:48:00.800
bag the left hook kills Balboa.
He goes down like a like a video

540
00:48:00.840 --> 00:48:07.679
game character. Rocky came out so
confident, didn't he boss, letting those

541
00:48:07.719 --> 00:48:10.239
hands fly. Rocky Balboa came out
so confident in the beginning, like there

542
00:48:10.320 --> 00:48:15.360
is going to be another walk in
the park. Now he's realizing how favorably

543
00:48:15.440 --> 00:48:17.519
he's been match made, how much
of a bitch he really is. And

544
00:48:17.639 --> 00:48:22.960
as a ten count expires, so
does Mickey. It's right, Mickey expires

545
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:29.360
along with Rocky's championship ring. It's
all coming crashing down. It's going to

546
00:48:29.480 --> 00:48:35.800
hurt inside. Rocky doesn't know where
he is. He's still fighting. I

547
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:38.079
don't know where he is for that
matter, I don't know where they shot

548
00:48:38.119 --> 00:48:44.880
this. Jimmy Lennon Senior with the
announcement the new heavyweight Champion of the World

549
00:48:44.960 --> 00:48:50.719
clubber Lang, and yeah, it
just went down real quick for one Rocky

550
00:48:50.760 --> 00:48:58.599
Balboa. Phil Apollo creed here not
very good, Xavier Woods of the New

551
00:48:58.679 --> 00:49:05.000
Day. His original ring name in
TNA was consequences Creed was it really?

552
00:49:05.440 --> 00:49:13.800
Yeah? It was. Uh,
it's funny because Stallone was, of course,

553
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:36.880
the executive produced The Contenders Reality great
things. They're much like I pointed

554
00:49:36.920 --> 00:49:40.840
out, they found themselves having to
in post production add sound effects of Punch's

555
00:49:40.920 --> 00:49:45.599
landing for the actual fights that they
put the reality show. Really do they

556
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:50.880
really? Yes, they did,
And they edited the fights heavily to speed

557
00:49:50.920 --> 00:49:54.559
them up and just like hone in
on the moments of exchange that resembled the

558
00:49:54.599 --> 00:50:01.400
movie. Well that I understand.
Yeah, this movie, this movie very

559
00:50:01.480 --> 00:50:07.719
much settled burned into the public imagination
what it was that a boxing fight looked

560
00:50:07.800 --> 00:50:10.639
like all of them. I mean
they all fucking you know that, that's

561
00:50:10.679 --> 00:50:15.639
just it. Everyone wanted boxing fights
to be rocky movies, and right,

562
00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:22.519
you know, like you can't do
it. That's why we have wrestling,

563
00:50:22.639 --> 00:50:29.880
because you can do it exactly Rocky. At Mickey's bedside, he is laboring

564
00:50:30.039 --> 00:50:32.480
just to breathe. Here tears streaming
down his face. I think he knows

565
00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:40.000
this is the end. Boss.
Oh maybe he might just be taking a

566
00:50:40.119 --> 00:50:53.239
nap. Actually call off the coroner. I remember watching this when I saw

567
00:50:53.320 --> 00:51:00.679
this the first time, being very
surprised that that Mickey dies, you know

568
00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:06.559
dies, Yeah, you know,
I didn't really know, and this early

569
00:51:06.639 --> 00:51:09.639
in the movie. I mean we're
halfway through, but you know, it

570
00:51:09.719 --> 00:51:14.960
does move. This move the movie
moves briskly. I remember a lot more

571
00:51:15.039 --> 00:51:19.679
distance between the Hogan and clubb Lang
fight than that. And I mean that's

572
00:51:19.719 --> 00:51:22.119
the thing too, Like it moves
very briskly, unlike the second one,

573
00:51:22.159 --> 00:51:28.679
which moves at just the sows pace
possible. Right, they packed two movies

574
00:51:28.679 --> 00:51:31.199
into this one. They really did. Again, they should have built they

575
00:51:31.199 --> 00:51:37.320
should have had a Hogan thing,
I mean, honestly, So, yeah,

576
00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:39.039
he has lost Mickey. He's like
Jesus Christ, I said, I

577
00:51:39.159 --> 00:51:46.880
needed a corner, not a corner
h Jesus wailing and agony on the chest

578
00:51:46.920 --> 00:51:52.960
of his fallen It's a sad day
in the Balboa community as he loses his

579
00:51:52.039 --> 00:51:57.639
world heavyweight title and his beloved trainer
all in the same evening. Kind of

580
00:51:57.679 --> 00:52:00.480
a rough night. I'll say,
want to get the suicide watch ready,

581
00:52:05.840 --> 00:52:08.920
it's the well, it's a it's
a what do you call it? You

582
00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:12.719
know, one of those places in
the cemetery where you get a lot of

583
00:52:12.719 --> 00:52:16.400
bodies, what do you call it? Mauso Lium Mausoleum, Thank you,

584
00:52:19.000 --> 00:52:21.840
also known as that place in the
cemetery where we got a lot of bodies,

585
00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:29.800
including Jesse Ventura. Who I see
there. That's the place in the

586
00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:34.239
cemetery where you got a lot of
bodies. Don't you worry what I got

587
00:52:34.320 --> 00:52:38.519
to Jesse? The body right here? Not? What do you think about

588
00:52:38.599 --> 00:52:44.840
that Mickey's character was Jewish? Yes, they There was a reason they did

589
00:52:44.880 --> 00:52:46.880
that because everyone kind of thought he
was Irish, because you know Mickey,

590
00:52:47.440 --> 00:52:53.480
but they they made him Jewish because, uh, what do you say,

591
00:52:54.440 --> 00:52:59.480
Mickey gold Mill? Gold Mill,
August fifteenth, nineteen eighty one. Is

592
00:53:00.079 --> 00:53:05.280
what we're supposed to think this day
is Stallone said that he did it because

593
00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:13.360
there were a lot of there were
a lot of Jewish boxing managers who were

594
00:53:13.480 --> 00:53:17.840
not recognized because they were Jewish,
and so he wanted to do that to

595
00:53:17.920 --> 00:53:23.119
honor them. That's a little interesting. Yeah, would we call Mickey his

596
00:53:23.239 --> 00:53:30.079
manager or trainer whatever whatever you call
it? Either way, whatever Mickey is,

597
00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:32.480
there were a lot of Jewish people. He's like a stand in for

598
00:53:32.559 --> 00:53:38.400
the unappreciated versions of them in reality. That's interesting that I did not that's

599
00:53:38.440 --> 00:53:42.880
a detail I did not recall.
Yeah, so August eighty one. I

600
00:53:42.920 --> 00:53:49.440
mean, this is this is Hogan's
starting up with a w A under lips

601
00:53:49.519 --> 00:53:53.840
is moving on and the bigger and
better things. The question is is Rocky

602
00:53:53.920 --> 00:54:00.119
Balboa is he moving on? There's
the there's your stupid statue. You.

603
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:02.280
I know, when I lose someone
close to me, I get on my

604
00:54:02.360 --> 00:54:07.079
motorcycle and drive to my statue.
Yeah so I did when my grandmother died,

605
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:10.840
got on my motorcycle and drove to
my statue. No, he doesn't

606
00:54:10.840 --> 00:54:14.800
even go to Mickey's statue, and
I know that there isn't one, But

607
00:54:14.880 --> 00:54:20.360
that's that's kind of the point,
eh man. They must feel the gans

608
00:54:20.360 --> 00:54:22.679
in that city put that thing up. They must feel like fucking chumps.

609
00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:25.880
They put that thing up, and
he loses the title and two rounds next.

610
00:54:28.159 --> 00:54:31.800
Oh shit, right, what a
fucking dick. That's when the editorial

611
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:37.239
start about like misuse of public funds. Then they start talking about fucking Bill

612
00:54:37.280 --> 00:54:45.639
Belichick. Bill Belichick. Shit,
no wonder there was controversy in the city

613
00:54:45.679 --> 00:54:47.599
about putting the statue back. I
mean, oh, you know, he's

614
00:54:47.639 --> 00:54:51.639
a loser, he's a bad omen. What the fuck we go? I

615
00:54:51.679 --> 00:54:54.599
don't want that thing on my heart. My heart museum, What the fuck

616
00:54:54.639 --> 00:54:59.760
are we doing that for? It's
not art, it's commercial bullshit, that's

617
00:54:59.840 --> 00:55:04.320
right. But commercialism is art.
It's post modern art. Yeah, didn't

618
00:55:04.320 --> 00:55:07.280
you hear me? Just read about
Venturia or whatever. Ventura. That's right.

619
00:55:07.360 --> 00:55:12.800
I'm a postmodern artist. I don't
think you knew that. But I

620
00:55:13.000 --> 00:55:15.639
do like my good every now and
again. I do like a good dose

621
00:55:15.719 --> 00:55:27.440
of postmodernism in my coffee. Look
at this Rocky in a forlorn state.

622
00:55:27.480 --> 00:55:30.679
He's made his way over to the
original Mickey's trading gym, and yeah,

623
00:55:30.719 --> 00:55:32.920
maybe if he's trained there for the
fight, he would have won. Oh

624
00:55:34.960 --> 00:55:45.480
uh oh so Apaulo Creed just hangs
out in Mickey's gym in the dark because

625
00:55:46.000 --> 00:55:53.559
Mickey, he doesn't fuss, hangs
out there in his fucking white overcoat.

626
00:55:54.000 --> 00:56:00.079
Of course, he just indicated that
he actually went to Rocky's house and Atrion

627
00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:02.960
said she hadn't seen him in an
hour, so I knew you'd be here

628
00:56:04.159 --> 00:56:07.039
or a day, right. It's
kind of like the version, this movie's

629
00:56:07.119 --> 00:56:13.719
version of uh, Kevin's mom finding
him at the Christmas tree. He knows

630
00:56:13.760 --> 00:56:20.800
where he'd be right right exactly.
Mm hmm. Let me let me tell

631
00:56:20.800 --> 00:56:22.320
you what if you lost your world
title? What would you be doing right

632
00:56:22.400 --> 00:56:31.920
now? Probably the same thing you're
doing Rocky. So he's going to counsel

633
00:56:32.039 --> 00:56:44.760
Rocky through this loser ye funk that
he's going to be in now. I

634
00:56:44.840 --> 00:56:50.880
didn't want to know what why?
This is a good job in this movie

635
00:56:51.480 --> 00:56:57.320
does an inspired performance? I like
it. I don't like carlwas that much,

636
00:56:58.559 --> 00:57:01.559
but I do like him in this
one. This Pator, yeah,

637
00:57:01.679 --> 00:57:07.679
coming soon too under the cinematon certain
body in that one. That's right.

638
00:57:07.760 --> 00:57:14.840
I am in the Arnold Schwarzenegger motion
picture Predator. I I play a commando

639
00:57:15.519 --> 00:57:17.440
and what I'm going to do there
is I'm going to kick some ash out

640
00:57:17.480 --> 00:57:27.480
of an alien. And that's that
is how he says alien. It's part

641
00:57:27.519 --> 00:57:35.719
of his you could say body of
work. Jesse Ventura raw Ross speech here

642
00:57:35.800 --> 00:57:40.239
from Carl weathers I are the tiger
man. I should should you know?

643
00:57:40.320 --> 00:57:43.440
What we should do is to that? You know, instead of doing the

644
00:57:43.519 --> 00:57:45.440
box and there, maybe you know
I should write a song? Well,

645
00:57:45.519 --> 00:57:52.280
I are a tiger you think what
do you think of Paulo write a song?

646
00:57:52.519 --> 00:57:54.760
I'm going to go back in this
dark corner for an hour and a

647
00:57:54.800 --> 00:58:02.159
half, like my dark corner,
CLUBB, Clubver, CLUBB. You're being

650
00:58:14.159 --> 00:58:17.280

So it's just so weird that they're all

655
00:58:47.159 --> 00:58:51.679
sitting so close to each other on
the couch like they're shoulder and shoulder here.

656
00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:55.480
It's true. I can't be beat. I won't be beat. It's

657
00:58:55.480 --> 00:59:00.599
the camera, mister t What a

659
00:59:07.360 --> 00:59:10.400

in the Wrestler too. He looks

660
00:59:10.440 --> 00:59:14.639
like some guy that worked in the
office or something, doesn't It look like

661
00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:20.039
Cal was like the love child of
Vernon and uh and uh and lou Grant

00:59:20.119 --> 00:59:34.280

667
00:59:57.840 --> 01:00:00.000
Like, Daddy, why do I
have to wear a suit every day?

668
01:00:01.840 --> 01:00:06.360

674
01:00:23.360 --> 01:00:25.920
fortune, it's all the trappings that
are Rick Flair is trying to copy.

675
01:00:27.079 --> 01:00:30.440
And that's your son. What a

Thanks for that, Paulie, for

682
01:01:14.480 --> 01:01:17.719
why don't you say that when you

cabin l A X, he thought they

01:01:25.519 --> 01:01:32.360

a ten hour drive. Oh, yes,

686
01:01:35.360 --> 01:01:39.559
ready for racist police coming out soon. Yeah, I know what they're

688
01:01:45.599 --> 01:01:51.000
that Hogan right there? No,
he's blonde, he's in a mustache.

689
01:01:52.480 --> 01:01:54.760
I love how his wife comes with
him and leaves the child behind. I

690
01:01:55.119 --> 01:02:00.000
was like, what there, like
like, wa way to make the feel

691
01:02:00.280 --> 01:02:02.639
the kid feel loved? I thought
you weren't supposed to fucking training camp,

692
01:02:02.719 --> 01:02:06.480
by the way. Huh. I
thought you weren't supposed to have sex in

693
01:02:06.519 --> 01:02:07.400
training camp, by the way.
The last thing you want to bring along

694
01:02:07.480 --> 01:02:14.239
is your wife in terms of temptation. Oh, man, he's entering a

695
01:02:14.920 --> 01:02:20.360
sweat box full of killers. Here. Apollo Creed has found him some training

696
01:02:20.400 --> 01:02:29.079
partners. Extraordinary fucking Boh, she's
gonna don't miss the message here, Rocky

697
01:02:29.159 --> 01:02:31.239
has to train with black men to
de feed a black man's you know,

698
01:02:31.360 --> 01:02:39.719
I menacing looking motherfuckers. Oh,
this is Apollo Creed stopping ground started wh

699
01:02:39.840 --> 01:02:45.000
he started boxing, So I said, he's in l a man, I

700
01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:52.800
didn't realize that. Mm hm,
tremendous a tiger. Everyone's looking to kill

701
01:02:53.320 --> 01:03:02.480
looking at him, and are they
ever glistening? Get in there stilllone,

702
01:03:04.320 --> 01:03:09.880
see what you got? And he
continued, Paulie comes in no class in

703
01:03:10.000 --> 01:03:14.320
here. What a dumb ass.
Fuck you dude, He's a fucking so

704
01:03:14.440 --> 01:03:22.679
annoying. He's worthless to him again, he has nothing the toxic hangar on

705
01:03:22.760 --> 01:03:25.960
her. Oh they're in every boxing
camp. Every boxing camp has one the

706
01:03:27.079 --> 01:03:30.199
guy that somehow, like you said
and you nailed it, that has this

707
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:35.320
little bit of like psychological leverage on
the superstar and everyone else in the entourage

708
01:03:35.360 --> 01:03:37.880
knows he's toxic. But but the
big boss says he's got to be around.

709
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:40.679
I remember Pacquiao had a guy like
that. He had a big fight

710
01:03:40.760 --> 01:03:45.519
with Freddy Roach over it, because
no matter what Freddy did, this guy

711
01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:49.280
always had Pacio's ear and he didn't
know anything about anything. He was just

712
01:03:49.360 --> 01:03:53.639
some guy that somehow won Pocia's trust
alone. I know, yeah, I

713
01:03:53.719 --> 01:04:00.400
know what the I nobody really needs
to channel his mentality. The eight these

714
01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:03.599
jobs for themselves within the camp.
I don't like these people, says Paulie.

715
01:04:06.559 --> 01:04:11.840
Too on the nose, says Rocky. They probably don't not a lot

716
01:04:11.920 --> 01:04:19.360
to like. Well, they're excited
to see the chant former champ. Come

717
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:23.960
on, Well he's a champ,
always a champ. It's like an honorary

718
01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:28.840
title, like president. Leaky pipes
and everything. Jesus Christ, he's really

719
01:04:29.000 --> 01:04:33.679
rough, Jesus on the toes.
You need to get hell. They're in

720
01:04:33.800 --> 01:04:35.760
LA. They need to call Jean
le Belle. Get him in here,

721
01:04:36.639 --> 01:04:40.719
show him some hip locks and stall
of a bell lock. Let's go all

722
01:04:40.760 --> 01:04:45.440
the way. Of course, this
a glimpse of what would be a long

723
01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:51.199
and pathetic tradition of Hollywood celebrities like
Mark Wahlberg pretending they box too and going

724
01:04:51.840 --> 01:04:59.239
to boxing gyms and the rougher parts
of still feel like men local bitches,

725
01:04:59.320 --> 01:05:02.760
like the guy in the fighter there
who my dad, my dad word to

726
01:05:02.840 --> 01:05:08.119
high school with. Oh no,
the fighter, yes, huh the Fighter

727
01:05:08.719 --> 01:05:14.280
talking about Mickey uh uh Mark Walmart. Yeah, but he plays uh,

728
01:05:15.679 --> 01:05:20.400
oh my god, Mickey Ward.
Yeah. But the the the guy who

729
01:05:21.239 --> 01:05:26.039
trains them, the local guy who's
a real lowell guy. My dad knows

730
01:05:26.119 --> 01:05:30.480
him. He hates him. I
don't think I knew that. Yeah,

731
01:05:30.559 --> 01:05:35.239
awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome
rocks women like an old lady here?

732
01:05:36.400 --> 01:05:41.119
Yeah was he? I mean,
jesus, I know he's roughing it in

733
01:05:41.159 --> 01:05:43.440
the actual fighting gym, but does
he really have to take them to a

734
01:05:43.440 --> 01:05:46.920
wreck pool in nineteen twenty eight,
I expect the women to be wearing like

735
01:05:47.039 --> 01:05:55.239
those caps and swim caps. Yep, Teddy Roosevelt in office? What the

736
01:05:55.280 --> 01:06:04.360
fuck is this? Like that they're
staying in Like I like that that that

737
01:06:04.639 --> 01:06:09.639
just because that they're in that they're
out there working in a crappy area.

738
01:06:09.679 --> 01:06:12.480
They have to stay in a crappy
area, Like, right, why couldn't

739
01:06:12.480 --> 01:06:16.480
they stay at the Ritz? Right? There's like he still has money,

740
01:06:16.960 --> 01:06:20.079
Yeah, he always make the most. That's why the boxers always hang on

741
01:06:20.119 --> 01:06:24.920
too long as you make the most
money as your ability is waning, right

742
01:06:26.039 --> 01:06:29.199
and well, I mean also he's
got fucking merchandising money coming in. I'm

743
01:06:29.199 --> 01:06:32.039
sure he's got residuals from from stuff
like that. Like, you know,

744
01:06:32.159 --> 01:06:34.719
they could stay at a hotel,
like a real hotel instead of it is.

745
01:06:35.880 --> 01:06:39.639
I guess maybe on top of the
fucking club there where they are,

746
01:06:39.840 --> 01:06:43.639
like, yeah, just anywhere and
like a motor roadside motel might be better.

747
01:06:43.760 --> 01:06:46.800
Honestly, they're watching film. Yeah, you know what the problem is,

748
01:06:47.079 --> 01:06:50.719
uh, Apollo, He's standing there
with his hands by his hips,

749
01:06:51.119 --> 01:06:55.119
letting clever langing hit him in the
face over Maybe he should block it.

750
01:06:57.360 --> 01:06:59.519
Like she's all happy, like you
never have that. She doesn't mind this

751
01:06:59.639 --> 01:07:05.719
fucking goddamn he just wants him to
fuck her. Come on, stop thinking

752
01:07:05.719 --> 01:07:11.119
about boxing and box me take care
of my box. She's such a good

753
01:07:11.119 --> 01:07:13.639
spirit. She just said there are
worst places, which I'm not so sure

754
01:07:13.679 --> 01:07:15.239
about. Actually I'm not so sure
either. I mean they went over the

755
01:07:15.280 --> 01:07:23.239
top of police's house, probably worse, lazed potato chip bags everywhere. Oh,

756
01:07:23.440 --> 01:07:25.559
I'll tell you, I'll never forget
I had I moved a friend of

757
01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:30.119
mine. I moved a friend of
mine from his from his apartment in LA

758
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:34.559
and I went there and there were
like two dozen pizza boxes piled up on

759
01:07:34.639 --> 01:07:38.599
each other. Wow. I just
stared at him and I said, look,

760
01:07:39.360 --> 01:07:41.559
I'll do this for you one time, but I am never coming to

761
01:07:41.679 --> 01:07:44.639
any of your apartments ever again.
I never did. He always came to

762
01:07:44.719 --> 01:07:45.519
my house. I never went.
I said, I'm not going in.

763
01:07:45.599 --> 01:07:51.000
I will never do it. I
will keep my word and never never step

764
01:07:51.119 --> 01:07:55.840
foot in another apartment that you have. I love it and I haven't to

765
01:07:55.920 --> 01:08:02.360
this day. This is UH.
A few generations before the h the bluetooth

766
01:08:02.360 --> 01:08:09.760
speakers would blast music to the whole
gymneys boom box. Paulie is literally holding

767
01:08:09.800 --> 01:08:16.039
a boombox. Well, they're all
looking at each other as they trained Balboa,

768
01:08:16.159 --> 01:08:24.680
Like this guy is not He's not
the real deal. No, it's

769
01:08:24.760 --> 01:08:27.600
kind of awkward because it's like the
guy there giving the stink guy is the

770
01:08:27.640 --> 01:08:30.520
guy that beat that ass two movies
ago. You know, it's like you

771
01:08:30.600 --> 01:08:33.000
put him down. You're putting down
the guy who's screaming at him. Even

772
01:08:33.079 --> 01:08:40.239
more so, no putting a jab
out right left cross. You've got to

773
01:08:40.319 --> 01:08:44.199
move exactly. How the fuck did
he become world champion without moving his head?

774
01:08:44.479 --> 01:08:49.399
Well, he boxed fucking cow carcass
Jesus Christ in the butcher shop.

775
01:08:51.279 --> 01:09:00.520
He's hooking, Yeah he is.
It was attitude Weathers. He totally is.

776
01:09:01.520 --> 01:09:06.920
There is no tomorrow. He screams
at Rocky. Oh that one got

777
01:09:06.920 --> 01:09:11.760
to him. He's looking in the
mirror. Now he's wondering who he's become.

778
01:09:12.600 --> 01:09:18.800
I know he's become. Have you
ever been of that beach? Yeah,

779
01:09:18.960 --> 01:09:23.640
Santa Monica, I think, oh
yeah, Santa Manka Pire right there,

780
01:09:23.720 --> 01:09:26.039
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they've
been there. When I have fucking

781
01:09:26.199 --> 01:09:30.520
the marathon, I ran I fucking
nice. I've been there too, I

782
01:09:30.600 --> 01:09:38.800
think to be going together maybe probably, Yeah, that's where marathon. I

783
01:09:38.880 --> 01:09:42.039
ran up and down the beach just
like this. Well, no way,

784
01:09:42.239 --> 01:09:51.039
no, no fucking way. Look
at stallone's head, idiots, naddys because

785
01:09:51.039 --> 01:09:55.359
he's running so slow. Look at
him, come on, come on.

786
01:09:55.800 --> 01:10:00.920
He slowed it down for cinematic effect. I believe it's like it's like rock

787
01:10:01.039 --> 01:10:04.439
The key is not to have more
heart. The key is to not let

788
01:10:04.520 --> 01:10:08.680
him hit in the face like that, right, Like he thinks he's gonna

789
01:10:08.680 --> 01:10:11.640
win the fight. By just like
if that. That's one like horrible thing

790
01:10:11.720 --> 01:10:15.119
this movie drives home. It's the
idea that, like, the only reason

791
01:10:15.199 --> 01:10:16.680
you lose when you get punched in
the face over and over again is because

792
01:10:16.680 --> 01:10:20.079
you don't will yourself to shake off
the pain. Right, he should have

793
01:10:20.119 --> 01:10:25.079
just gotten up. That's the thing. You're nothing to do with his defense.

794
01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:30.880
His strategy is fucking ploy. He
just needed more heart, He had

795
01:10:30.960 --> 01:10:32.800
more heart, He would have done
it. No, No, well,

796
01:10:32.800 --> 01:10:35.439
it looks like flashbacks to the fight
just stopped him dead in his tracks.

797
01:10:35.479 --> 01:10:42.800
He gave up. He gave up. Is there like an army invasion happening?

798
01:10:42.880 --> 01:10:49.479
What the fuck is out there?
That looks like that's clever Leg's naval

799
01:10:49.560 --> 01:10:57.880
fleet breaching the perimeter here Paul cre
has called it. It's all over,

800
01:10:57.920 --> 01:11:00.800
He says, Yep, it's clear
that Rocky doesn't have it. Hogan's over

801
01:11:00.119 --> 01:11:02.640
in this movie. But yeah,
yeah, he's the one guy that comes

802
01:11:02.680 --> 01:11:10.840
on all over Rose. He was
the canary in the coal mine. The

803
01:11:10.920 --> 01:11:14.159
way he was able to take it
to uh Balboa, that should have been

804
01:11:14.199 --> 01:11:15.600
assigned everybody. But because it was
a pro wrestler, no one took it

805
01:11:15.680 --> 01:11:19.399
seriously. No, it's because what
he did isn't serious. That's right,

806
01:11:19.640 --> 01:11:26.000
it's fraud. It's fixed body slamming
pretend fighters. Why don't you put the

807
01:11:26.079 --> 01:11:31.399
hurting on a real fighter? Rocky? Wow, now she's just walking over

808
01:11:33.039 --> 01:11:36.199
man. That music, Yeah,
that's of a particular time, isn't it.

809
01:11:36.239 --> 01:11:39.720
Bill Contey, Ladies and gentlemen?
Oh? Is that Bill on the

810
01:11:39.800 --> 01:11:43.520
on the track? Yep? He
is the Is he well known? Uh?

811
01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:45.359
Yeah. He did a lot of
TV work, a lot of composed

812
01:11:45.359 --> 01:11:49.239
a lot of TV themes. But
I'll say his most known work is the

813
01:11:49.359 --> 01:11:56.079
Rocky movies and the Rocky theme,
and that's big. Yeah, it's enough

814
01:11:56.119 --> 01:11:58.880
to hang your hat on for a
career, I'd say absolutely. I mean,

815
01:11:59.520 --> 01:12:01.960
god, lucky to get one.
You know, you're looking to get

816
01:12:02.000 --> 01:12:11.760
anything, let alone fucking Rocky a
war to be over? Yeah, that'd

817
01:12:11.800 --> 01:12:16.199
be nice. Jess Terry Bill CONTI
is god. He did. He did

818
01:12:16.399 --> 01:12:21.359
Rocky when he was thirty six?
Good for him? Is that old or

819
01:12:21.439 --> 01:12:29.000
young? Young? Yeah? The
fucking yeah that's true. Most composers have

820
01:12:29.079 --> 01:12:30.199
white hair, don't they. Yeah, I mean now he does. But

821
01:12:31.720 --> 01:12:35.520
like to be to be doing that
when you're he's in a lot of stuff.

822
01:12:38.359 --> 01:12:44.319
Good for him the right stuff.
He wanted an oscar for the right

823
01:12:44.399 --> 01:12:50.880
stuff. Mhmm, some angle to
hold onto the title longer than I should

824
01:12:50.880 --> 01:12:58.600
have had it and angle, yeah
right. You know they don't have Philly

825
01:12:58.640 --> 01:13:00.720
accents at all. No, they
just straight bronxacks. Yeah. Absolutely,

826
01:13:00.920 --> 01:13:13.560
totally New York loser. He really
a fucking losers. Nothing fucking real.

827
01:13:14.039 --> 01:13:20.399
That's what thunder Lips told me.
None of it's real, he said,

828
01:13:20.560 --> 01:13:27.239
nothing is real unless you believe in
who you are. She's not putting you

829
01:13:27.359 --> 01:13:30.000
through anything, dude. You're helping
you and going with you to LA for

830
01:13:30.119 --> 01:13:33.119
no reason. Like she's not taking
care of her kid because he's with you.

831
01:13:33.520 --> 01:13:44.119
Why is he screaming at her?
He's scared? We got money,

832
01:13:45.560 --> 01:13:56.119
money, money. Oh I see, he's afraid my life. Mm hmm.

833
01:13:58.640 --> 01:14:01.960
You're the only You're the only bitch
that's afraid, Rocky. Your wife's

834
01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:06.319
afraid. Your kid's afraid because he
doesn't know what the fuck's going on in

835
01:14:06.399 --> 01:14:10.159
those glasses. I'll tell you his
kid's afraid because his dad's a fraud.

836
01:14:10.359 --> 01:14:12.640
That's what it is, right.
It's like, why do I tell my

837
01:14:12.760 --> 01:14:16.199
friends? Right? Not only is
he like a fucking loser, champion,

838
01:14:16.279 --> 01:14:20.920
but he also fought a fake fight
with that fucking fake wrestler, loser champion.

839
01:14:23.079 --> 01:14:26.760
That's a tough one to come back
from. I'm a loser champion.

840
01:14:27.439 --> 01:14:30.479
So if even if I do win
it belt back, there's a there's a

841
01:14:30.600 --> 01:14:35.159
moniker that still fits. You'll put
a phrase pink loser, not champion,

842
01:14:38.119 --> 01:14:40.720
Dad, I'm gonna take away champion
out of your nickname, just loser.

843
01:14:42.720 --> 01:14:51.640
Don't you know Rocky haven't needed a
champion. Heaven need it a staffium.

844
01:14:53.479 --> 01:14:59.680
I'll say that's why he took you. Any truth to the rumor that if

845
01:15:00.600 --> 01:15:02.920
they couldn't come to terms with Slide, that Crockett, Jopp or the Italian

846
01:15:03.000 --> 01:15:06.840
Stallion would have gotten the call.
I believe that was the case. There

847
01:15:06.960 --> 01:15:11.119
was a there was a time when
they when they when when they were when

848
01:15:11.119 --> 01:15:14.399
they were talking about doing Rocky four, he was like, I don't I

849
01:15:14.560 --> 01:15:15.600
won't do it. I don't want
to do it. Well, we'll fucking

850
01:15:15.720 --> 01:15:18.520
rock We'll just get this guy,
got this guy here, we'll do it

851
01:15:18.600 --> 01:15:21.800
for free, because he's a fucking
loser, down and down in some other

852
01:15:21.880 --> 01:15:26.159
fucking terror. Charlotte and I want
to sit here and I want to smoke

853
01:15:26.199 --> 01:15:30.880
my cigar and tell you Stallone that
you're a bitch and I don't give a

854
01:15:30.960 --> 01:15:33.239
shit. You either do this fucking
movie or I'm wanna make somebody else a

855
01:15:33.319 --> 01:15:39.359
big fucking star. Is Rocky all
right, your fucking asshole, the Italian

856
01:15:39.439 --> 01:15:43.720
stallion? No, that's a real
large Italian, that's right. I mean,

857
01:15:43.800 --> 01:15:46.039
any Italian stallion at a fucking sandwich
shop is going to do you in

858
01:15:47.520 --> 01:15:50.199
big heart to heart here between Adrian
and Rocky hit the music. Well,

859
01:15:50.199 --> 01:15:56.359
actually wore pink lipstick out to the
fucking beach for the training. I think

860
01:15:56.560 --> 01:16:00.760
atographer is happy about it as well. I don't think so too. Oh

861
01:16:00.960 --> 01:16:04.800
god, his lips are so perverted. That was That was an uninspired little

862
01:16:04.800 --> 01:16:10.399
smooch there. I think I wonder
if they keep in touch. I when

863
01:16:10.439 --> 01:16:15.359
they did fust movies together. That's
all you. Now, he's got the

864
01:16:15.479 --> 01:16:21.319
now he's ready music hit. The
music's hit. We're in a polo shirt.

Now you put the the towel towel, yeah, to catch the sweat?

866
01:16:27.119 --> 01:16:30.319
Yeah, I should probably do.

Miller? Yeah, he was a boxer.

885
01:18:15.199 --> 01:18:18.039
Oh, look, could have pulled
away. Look he's coming in.

886
01:18:18.119 --> 01:18:26.560
He's gonna do it strong. Look
at that footwork. That's it. Look

887
01:18:26.600 --> 01:18:30.560
at he's dancing. Man, I
love that he's fucking dancing. Laughter winning.

888
01:18:30.720 --> 01:18:34.479
Yeah, I have a tiger.
I love that. After winning the

889
01:18:34.479 --> 01:18:39.880
heavyweight title of the world. He
discovers head movement, after winning the heavyweight

890
01:18:39.920 --> 01:18:46.000
title of the world, discovers Oh, Paul, bitch all we let's get

891
01:18:46.039 --> 01:18:48.119
those snides. Look at the Look
at the muscles, look at the look

892
01:18:48.119 --> 01:18:55.039
at the look at the quads.
Bobby's eighties striped socks. Right, oh

893
01:18:55.159 --> 01:19:01.479

894
01:19:01.520 --> 01:19:05.319
any day. Now. Look at
him. God, he pulls ahead.

895
01:19:06.039 --> 01:19:13.319
Go keep nodding, Keep nodding.
Prevent me from nodding off. Yeah,

896
01:19:16.800 --> 01:19:24.079
and they're gonna make out now they're
splashing in the water. Seriously, just

897
01:19:25.159 --> 01:19:28.760
get it on. And this is
this is where Apollo creeds whispers in his

898
01:19:28.840 --> 01:19:35.920
ear. I let you beat me. You're really a bitch, rock You're

899
01:19:35.920 --> 01:19:40.760
still a loser. And then that's
it. Nope, we can we're back,

900
01:19:43.600 --> 01:19:46.479
but we're back. We're in the
world's most famous arena. This is

901
01:19:46.720 --> 01:19:53.880
spectacular, the world's most famous arena. No brought you by Jess McMahon promotions.

902
01:19:55.800 --> 01:20:01.680
I'm sorry that is not here.
We go, don't run any strategy.

903
01:20:02.840 --> 01:20:10.079
He's stupid promoter text, work hard, presenting this night of Championship boxing.

904
01:20:13.239 --> 01:20:17.079
Well, he's just hit her.
Let're gonna hit you again. That's

905
01:20:17.119 --> 01:20:20.640
where he started. I pity the
fool. That is this is where he

906
01:20:20.840 --> 01:20:24.079
started. I mean, it's not
where he started. I think he was

907
01:20:24.119 --> 01:20:26.960
doing it before, but he used
in the movie and became famous. Got

908
01:20:27.000 --> 01:20:32.560
it he was. I think he
always pities the fool is what he said.

909
01:20:32.560 --> 01:20:35.600
It's it's religious something like that.
I forget. Sit in an interview

910
01:20:35.640 --> 01:20:45.399
with something ringside. Uh. Commentators
weighing the odds, saying they're quite long

911
01:20:45.479 --> 01:20:51.920
for Belbo to reclaim the title tonight. What's your Yeah, prediction, Yes,

912
01:20:53.079 --> 01:20:57.920
prediction. Clubber looks to the camera. What a pain, he's a

913
01:20:58.039 --> 01:21:01.479
lap fan. Yeah, this was
meant to be. This whole thing that's

914
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:11.239
happening right now on Patreon. Mm
hmm. There you go. Imagine the

915
01:21:11.520 --> 01:21:15.159
how horrifying that must be if you're
a boxer and someone opens your locker room

916
01:21:15.199 --> 01:21:17.159
door and says it's time to fuck
out. I don't want to think about

917
01:21:17.159 --> 01:21:20.359
it, like it's time to get
punched in the face. I don't care

918
01:21:20.439 --> 01:21:24.359
how ready you think you are.
That's gotta be fucking horror. I don't

919
01:21:24.359 --> 01:21:26.119
want it. That's the thing.
I don't know. I could never.

920
01:21:26.760 --> 01:21:30.680
Oh there's like because because you have
to, you have to build up your

921
01:21:30.720 --> 01:21:35.199
confidence so much that you think you're
going to beat somebody, but like you

922
01:21:35.359 --> 01:21:40.840
just make I just don't know.
It's confidence that's so easily shaken. Oh.

923
01:21:40.920 --> 01:21:44.640
I know, like one person could
say what are you doing and it's

924
01:21:44.680 --> 01:21:47.079
like, yeah, I know what
am I doing? I could That's why

925
01:21:47.079 --> 01:21:49.760
I could never be a fighter.
I could have never been a fight.

926
01:21:51.279 --> 01:21:54.800
It cracks me up. Like when
I talk to people in casual life about

927
01:21:54.800 --> 01:21:57.760
being a huge fight fan, like
you ever trained, I'm like no,

928
01:21:58.000 --> 01:22:03.960
what like no fan? Fight miss? When I said not fight, this

929
01:22:04.079 --> 01:22:08.920
isn't this isn't a fantasy of mine, this is an interest of mine.

930
01:22:09.000 --> 01:22:11.720
This is I don't know. Although
I can't. A guy I know from

931
01:22:11.840 --> 01:22:15.640
junior High, he he's I don't
know if he's I don't know if he's

932
01:22:15.640 --> 01:22:18.680
still fighting not, but he definitely
trained to be. I think you saw

933
01:22:18.760 --> 01:22:27.039
him or something something like that,
fuck's his name. I think you saw

934
01:22:27.119 --> 01:22:30.880
him one time, or or you
went to a a fight, you covered

935
01:22:30.920 --> 01:22:32.800
a fight up in Maine that he
was at, or something like that.

936
01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:40.720
Oh really I feel like that happened. Yeah, I'm drawing a blank.

937
01:22:42.119 --> 01:22:46.319
There's the Iron Man from Philadelphia.
Rocky Balboa has entered the ring. Yeah,

938
01:22:46.359 --> 01:22:53.520
this is not Madison Squarecard New Way. I wonder where they shot this.

939
01:22:53.880 --> 01:23:00.720
I don't know, probably the Spectrum. Yeah, this broadcast on PRISM.

940
01:23:01.199 --> 01:23:12.479
Yeah right, it comes Clever Lang. Oh yeah, uh C J.

941
01:23:12.720 --> 01:23:20.920
Hobbes, d J. Hobbs.
Isn't that James Kahn bus Walter hob

942
01:23:21.159 --> 01:23:30.319
Walter Hobbs. I mean he definitely
never fought like crazy things like like like

943
01:23:30.800 --> 01:23:38.560
you know, yeah, local small
stuff. Fascinating that. Uh is this

944
01:23:38.720 --> 01:23:47.319
calculation the ta is calling uh apollo
boy? Yeah? Yeah, very true.

945
01:23:47.399 --> 01:23:51.840
Huh considering the sensitivity in real life
that mister T had to that term,

946
01:23:55.359 --> 01:24:02.279
is that? Uh No, it's
not cool. There's a big miscue

947
01:24:02.399 --> 01:24:06.439
on the neck line shaved there from
old mister T. Yeah, he kept

948
01:24:06.479 --> 01:24:12.880
the line of his beard down around
the Adams Apple, but he he uh

949
01:24:13.880 --> 01:24:18.079
clopped off a fair amount of hair
in between there you've got you've got interesting

950
01:24:18.159 --> 01:24:21.600
designs. Well he's got he's got
bigger things to worry about. There was

951
01:24:21.840 --> 01:24:27.439
You know, the reason why he
got the mohawk cut is because at some

952
01:24:27.600 --> 01:24:30.319
point he was trying to get teas
put in his hair, but they look

953
01:24:30.439 --> 01:24:34.560
stupidly, and so he just shaved
the sides of his hell. That's fascinating

954
01:24:42.199 --> 01:24:45.800
Rocky Balboa. Everyone loves the white
Italian stallion. What do they think of

955
01:24:46.000 --> 01:24:53.800
Clever Lang going with the apollo creed
American flag tights. Here's Rocky Balboa.

956
01:24:55.359 --> 01:24:59.079
I think is that is that Rocky
on there on his entourages or is that

957
01:24:59.319 --> 01:25:05.079
the Japanese act Pocky. I think
Pocky looks like both boom wearing the title.

958
01:25:05.159 --> 01:25:10.520
They boo, they boo the black
man kind of going. They cheer,

959
01:25:10.600 --> 01:25:14.000
but they cheer the the man cornered
by the black man. Yes,

960
01:25:15.119 --> 01:25:17.600
they come to center. Look at
that fucking face off. Now, imagine

961
01:25:17.680 --> 01:25:20.840
like you look like that's like what
like less than an inch between their noses.

962
01:25:21.119 --> 01:25:26.239
Imagine looking at me like that right
with it, like that's how close

963
01:25:26.279 --> 01:25:29.960
they are. Isn't an amazing how
in film it never looks like they're that

964
01:25:30.079 --> 01:25:39.239
close. Yeah, they are right
up in their ship. Wow, Like,

965
01:25:39.319 --> 01:25:42.119
how do you like you think about
the beating he took in the first

966
01:25:42.159 --> 01:25:46.560
fight and now you're gonna fight that
fucking guy again. But now he's now,

967
01:25:46.640 --> 01:25:49.600
he's now, he's got Apollo though. He's training like all movement.

968
01:25:50.079 --> 01:25:54.840
He's been in the in the in
the dirty. I've been training in l

969
01:25:54.920 --> 01:25:59.159
A. That's right where they know
how to fight. It's right like Philly

970
01:25:59.640 --> 01:26:06.359
with the bell sounds runned away.
The big rematch comes out just like last

971
01:26:06.399 --> 01:26:13.039
time, and less than zero defense
from clubver Lang once again. Club are

972
01:26:13.119 --> 01:26:18.199
doing just letting get Jesus Christ.
It's like Mike Tyson sponge out. It's

973
01:26:18.239 --> 01:26:24.880
like the Wii boxing. Yeah,
he has like hit him with three straight

974
01:26:25.039 --> 01:26:30.840
jabs and Clever Lang did nothing right, gross left gross, nothing being offered

975
01:26:30.920 --> 01:26:34.239
in response from Clever Lang. Here, this has like a pez dispenser out

976
01:26:34.279 --> 01:26:45.159
there Boston. Absolutely yeah, challenge
just landing a steady diet of jabs.

977
01:26:45.199 --> 01:26:47.039
Here is boutbo. They could have
gotten away without doing the sound effects.

978
01:26:47.119 --> 01:26:53.239
It's kind of funny, you know
what I mean. Yeah, the braver

979
01:26:53.840 --> 01:26:57.479
of wooden crate sounds, you know
what it is? Is that announcer guy.

980
01:26:57.520 --> 01:27:00.119
He's got the stuff he's doing.
Sound of a Can I do some

981
01:27:00.239 --> 01:27:06.119
folly work for you, mister Saloon, I'm gonna do it anyway. Not

982
01:27:06.279 --> 01:27:13.439
Lang pulling forward. Look at that
now he's fucking doing defensive works. Yeah,

983
01:27:13.800 --> 01:27:16.760
the head movements there, nice fade
there, he's firing forward the one

984
01:27:16.840 --> 01:27:23.239
two's. Look at Balboa coming with
the straight left. He's My goodness,

985
01:27:23.920 --> 01:27:30.039
you're that great combinations. All clutter
Lang's got is right and left hooks from

986
01:27:30.079 --> 01:27:36.119
Downtown. Much more varied punching.
I mean that thing, Rocky. It's

987
01:27:36.159 --> 01:27:40.640
a different a different fighter than he
was. Right. Oh, clearly they

988
01:27:40.720 --> 01:27:45.760
did a great job of like making
that happen. Cluver Lang beside himself and

989
01:27:45.800 --> 01:27:50.840
how Yeah, from what I understand, he pities the fool I'm being told

990
01:27:50.920 --> 01:28:00.439
he pities the fool ladies and gentlemen. He wants to kill the fool water

991
01:28:00.479 --> 01:28:04.760
being administered. That's one guy never
got in fighting. Yeah, what squirting

992
01:28:04.880 --> 01:28:08.920
water in the guy's mouth between rounds
and he spits it out. It's like,

993
01:28:09.520 --> 01:28:11.760
what, well, you want to
have that water in your body?

994
01:28:12.479 --> 01:28:15.159
You want to like? Yeah,
I mean like I think about the times

995
01:28:15.159 --> 01:28:17.479
when I've had too much water,
and the water sits the wrong way,

996
01:28:18.279 --> 01:28:23.359
ruin your whole fight. But at
least you get your mouth wet, get

997
01:28:23.399 --> 01:28:25.640
the spit moving. I mean,
I know nothing about boxing. That was

998
01:28:25.720 --> 01:28:28.640
all. No, No, that's
that's that's suggested. Sure what it is?

999
01:28:29.880 --> 01:28:31.960
Oh? Look at that steady right
jab from Balboa, and and and

1000
01:28:32.119 --> 01:28:40.680
and and fucking Tea just taking it
absolutely Hammhage goats to town. He's here

1001
01:28:40.760 --> 01:28:46.000
to fucking take Rocky Balboa apart.
I said Balboa should train with Jean Label.

1002
01:28:46.079 --> 01:28:49.479
It appears that mister t did just
that. That's a judo hip throw

1003
01:28:50.239 --> 01:29:01.520
he's got. He pulled a wait
done what a judica is mister t Oh,

1004
01:29:01.680 --> 01:29:11.000
he's about to adjudicate this heavy right
landing flashbacks? These are like fucking

1005
01:29:11.319 --> 01:29:19.640
Vader potatoes Arian, I know,
ada ada a. Who's the old man

1006
01:29:19.760 --> 01:29:25.119
fucking next there? Not worried?
Why aren't you sitting in a box?

1007
01:29:26.039 --> 01:29:30.359
Rockey getting knocked all around the ring? He's out at him, falls down

1008
01:29:30.399 --> 01:29:36.119
like an accordion. He took a
huge bump, bumps hard. I think

1009
01:29:36.399 --> 01:29:41.119
you think Terry taught him that bump? I think so, brother. What

1010
01:29:41.199 --> 01:29:43.600
you want you do is you want
to go inside out like an accordion bowlder.

1011
01:29:45.760 --> 01:29:54.520
Someone a home falls How fast that
one? Actually from the ninety two

1012
01:29:54.600 --> 01:29:57.600
rumble actually would have been Pat Tanaka. Actually, I take it back.

1013
01:30:00.239 --> 01:30:04.479
Balbo goes down again, the hungry
clubb Lang closing in again with those massive

1014
01:30:04.520 --> 01:30:10.760
left hooks to the temple. Even
Adrian can't watch anymore. Oh, ain't

1015
01:30:10.800 --> 01:30:15.960
so bad. Look at fucking Rocky
trash talking. You're not in it,

1016
01:30:17.239 --> 01:30:23.800
big face off between rounds, Adrian
probably flashing back to the beach where he

1017
01:30:23.880 --> 01:30:27.840
said I'm scared. Yeah, she
ended up putting on the track to get

1018
01:30:27.920 --> 01:30:35.079
back. She could die. He
could die. He's my fault. God

1019
01:30:35.439 --> 01:30:42.479
incredible. Here we get some Uh
we get some? Yeah, I won't

1020
01:30:42.479 --> 01:30:46.319
say we get he said he.
Rocky says that Clubber is tired. Get

1021
01:30:46.439 --> 01:30:56.479
some rumble in the jungle inspiration here
by uh dope, by rock I'm the

1022
01:30:56.560 --> 01:31:00.760
tiger, the tiger, you understand, rock Time for some rope a dope.

1023
01:31:00.640 --> 01:31:05.600
He is tired, the lactic acid
filling up in those huge muscles of

1024
01:31:05.680 --> 01:31:12.119
one, mister t clubver Lang is
Round three is underway. Rope dope,

1025
01:31:12.840 --> 01:31:19.159
Yeah, I'd say, is my
round? Keep talking? Clubver? Who

1026
01:31:19.199 --> 01:31:26.279
you trying to convince Rocky or yourself
right, that deep looks so fun,

1027
01:31:27.079 --> 01:31:34.000
looks like it looks like Gilbert Godfreed. He's missing and nothing is more exhausting

1028
01:31:34.079 --> 01:31:38.640
than missing punches. Oh man,
Now he's clipping Rocky big time in the

1029
01:31:38.680 --> 01:31:46.199
corner. Body shot puts him against
the ropes. Another left the body man

1030
01:31:46.279 --> 01:31:57.039
clubver Lang attacking the body viciously.
Here hands up defense Rocky at this forehead.

1031
01:31:58.079 --> 01:32:04.520
Those punches must be losing their sting. Knock me out, so he

1032
01:32:04.600 --> 01:32:15.159
does. But Lang explodes to the
body with the white hook. Man.

1033
01:32:15.399 --> 01:32:19.560
He is he hitting him with nuclear
warheads or a bunch of or animals or

1034
01:32:19.640 --> 01:32:26.800
dinosaurs. It's the eighteen twelve overture
out here. Jesus is clever leg laying

1035
01:32:26.840 --> 01:32:31.199
him in. This fight would have
been stopped in any jurisdiction you can imagine.

1036
01:32:31.239 --> 01:32:35.880
No, no, not unless the
gunshine. New York State Athletic Commissions

1037
01:32:36.760 --> 01:32:44.039
par for the course. Here Jerry
Cooney falling asleep on the job here referees

1038
01:32:44.439 --> 01:32:46.359
you know, discretion, Yeah,
sure, that's true. Every comes one,

1039
01:32:46.439 --> 01:32:50.199
two comes Rocky, luring him in. He seems ready to attack,

1040
01:32:50.279 --> 01:32:57.479
protecting the body nicely. They had
the head protecting and answering. Look at

1041
01:32:57.560 --> 01:33:03.960
him defense and offense here from Rocky
nice avoidance clever lang is is you can

1042
01:33:04.039 --> 01:33:12.319
tell he's gassing up here boom and
look he's Oh he's lifting him. Yeah,

1043
01:33:12.399 --> 01:33:15.000
those spotty shots are literally taking him
off his feet and up top.

1044
01:33:15.800 --> 01:33:18.800
Here we go, Steady Diet doubling
up on the on the hook. All

1045
01:33:18.800 --> 01:33:27.520
the Japs pumping, just pummeling him
with jabs. Jesus, no fucking person

1046
01:33:27.560 --> 01:33:40.359
would be still standing, Steady Diet. Oh my god, this is this

1047
01:33:40.520 --> 01:33:44.880
is this is keep him on.
This is the era when fucking guys with

1048
01:33:45.039 --> 01:33:48.880
machine guns holding under their fucking armpits
and shoot and aim and don't miss,

1049
01:33:49.239 --> 01:33:56.520
you know, so true? Oh
that one landed on his feet. One

1050
01:33:56.560 --> 01:34:00.880
more, one more the left is
one more all for Fucky Balboa, south

1051
01:34:00.960 --> 01:34:04.720
pawl bitch, Come on, take
him out left down the pipe down,

1052
01:34:04.760 --> 01:34:12.800
he goes, that's it. He
may have killed the man. Then they're

1053
01:34:12.800 --> 01:34:17.079
on their feet in the garden.
So bad for his managers and trainers and

1054
01:34:17.079 --> 01:34:27.000
stuff. There that's it and count
that's it. That's it. He did

1055
01:34:27.079 --> 01:34:30.840
it. Oh look at him looking
at he collapses. Great, that was

1056
01:34:31.199 --> 01:34:39.359
iconic. Look at the boxing writers
chain smoking calling in results. All right,

1057
01:34:39.399 --> 01:34:44.159
come on, make some phone calls. They got the guys with the

1058
01:34:44.279 --> 01:34:48.760
fucking visors going to the back out
on the gate. Where's Onie scolding with

1059
01:34:48.840 --> 01:34:56.800
the cash deposit box. God,
that was over quick. I mean they

1060
01:34:56.920 --> 01:34:59.359
really, I totally forgot this.
They just get in there, beat the

1061
01:34:59.479 --> 01:35:01.840
ship out. They do. They
really do again. You know, it's

1062
01:35:01.840 --> 01:35:06.640
again a much more intense fight because
unlike the other the previous two movies,

1063
01:35:08.479 --> 01:35:11.319
there's no like they would they had
a montage, you know, of the

1064
01:35:12.880 --> 01:35:15.000
of the movies of the of the
fights, like they would go they went

1065
01:35:15.039 --> 01:35:18.119
the full fifteen rounds or whatever,
where this one they just didn't. Both

1066
01:35:18.159 --> 01:35:25.760
fights are showing in their entirety,
right, and now they're wearing diapers and

1067
01:35:26.039 --> 01:35:30.640
come in and after the fight,
they're wearing diapers. Balboa and Creed conversing

1068
01:35:31.239 --> 01:35:36.119
red and yellow. Keep in mind
Oppo the trilogy. Yeah, I know,

1069
01:35:36.279 --> 01:35:41.159
huh, look at this, it's
all here. I like how they're

1070
01:35:41.159 --> 01:35:45.600
gonna have their that they want to
have their rubber match be a fucking exhibition

1071
01:35:45.880 --> 01:35:50.640
by themselves, not even not even
in front of like an audience. There's

1072
01:35:50.640 --> 01:35:53.840
a lot of money you're passing up
guys, at least for charity. I

1073
01:35:53.880 --> 01:36:01.319
mean, Jesus Christ, have a
heart. Balbo and Creed climbing back in

1074
01:36:01.439 --> 01:36:06.760
there one more time for an audience
is none. It was turnbuckles wrestling ring

1075
01:36:08.000 --> 01:36:16.279
does Oh all right, So I
think Creed taught Bilebow everything he knows.

1076
01:36:18.479 --> 01:36:23.479
It's safe to say that Apaula Creed
taught Rocky Bilbo everything he knows. He

1077
01:36:23.520 --> 01:36:28.000
didn't teach him everything he knows.
However, thank you. That one goes

1078
01:36:28.039 --> 01:36:31.119
back to day one. That's it
you've been saying that day we men.

1079
01:36:31.760 --> 01:36:36.159
It's fucking money. That's why you've
ever thought Sewn Michaels everything he knows.

1080
01:36:36.279 --> 01:36:40.800
He didn't teach him everything he knows. However, So they're really just gonna

1081
01:36:40.800 --> 01:36:43.960
get in there and beat the shadows
each other. All this is fun.

1082
01:36:44.199 --> 01:36:45.880
Keep in mind they're gonna get bloody
and whatever, and they're gonna have fun

1083
01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:50.439
doing this. This is where I
don't understand fighting. Not a dialogue here.

1084
01:36:50.520 --> 01:36:54.479
This is like a thunderdome match,
all right, Oh yes, it

1085
01:36:54.560 --> 01:36:58.119
is. It totally is. We're
watching modern w B product right now,

1086
01:36:58.439 --> 01:37:01.479
right, this is this is boxing
story. Je freeze frame as soon as

1087
01:37:01.479 --> 01:37:11.079
they had leash on each other of
all rivals. Leroy Meathn paints the picture.

1088
01:37:11.720 --> 01:37:15.920
Wow, well, I think in
many ways still, Sir Leicester Stallone

1089
01:37:15.960 --> 01:37:18.359
and Terrence hul Kokan Bolea painted a
picture for us here this week. I

1090
01:37:18.439 --> 01:37:23.399
