I watched the complete Rocky saga last week. Each day one movie and there are 6 movies so it was almost the complete week. I already did Rambo week before it heh
I loved it. It was interesting to see all movies in short period because you really notice all the details and links between them and character changes. My favorite is Rocky IV. The one with Dolph Lundgren. My least favorite was Rocky V followed by Rocky III but they were still good movies.
I can't help but to go out running and working out after watching every one of them lol. Now I'm running with Rocky soundtrack in the background:P
Do you like Rocky? Have you seen them all? Which part is your favorite and which one least favorite?

I liked the Rocky films alot and I do think Stallone did a great job in them. I think my favorite would be the first one though. I have not seen the last one that they made, Would you recommend it?
My favorite part in the first Rocky film was just after he won the last fight when he shouts "Adrianne" classic Stallone. It has been a while since I seen any of the Rocky films, I must give them a watch sometime soon.

You should definitely rewatch them since you don't remember that he actually lost the fight in the first movie against Apollo
But you are right, Rocky screaming ADRIAAAAAAN was a great scene.
I sure recommend you to see the last one cause it's great. There's one great motivational speech when he talks to his son (which is a bit lost), then Rocky getting back in shape and the last fight was the most realistic in the series. The feel of the movie is exactly the same as in old ones so when I watched it I felt like not much time has passed between them.

. It has been a while since I seen it so definitely have to watch it again
I will check out the last one, I did hear it was good and was always on my to see list but never got round to it.

Believe it or not I have only seen a part of one of the Rocky movies and I couldn't tell you which one it was. But it is weird that you also mention the Rambos because my family just finished watching those movies this past week..Rambo 1 and 2 was on television here this past weekend and we sat and watched them and then we decided that we would also like to see three and four so we went to the rental store and rented them both for Monday night..they were all good but I would have to say that one was my favorite just because it seemed more real to me with the crooked police force and the hiding in the mountains. We were just saying the we should rent the Rocky series because our ten year old son was asking about them and saying how he would like to see them, so I think we are going to go ahead and get them next weekend..this weekend we are going to rent a few Halloween type movies to celebrate the holiday but with winter coming we always watch a bunch of movies on the weekends so we will have plenty of time to watch them, I will have to let you know what I thought.

First (Blood) Rambo is my favorite too. It's different from the sequels because it's about a lost man struggling to live normal life after what happened to him.
You should really rent Rocky, it's a classic! Expect epic underdog story with a great soundtrack.

I love the Rocky movies and they are really powerful and inspirational! I guess my favourite out of all of them has to be Rocky IV! I absolutely love the soundtrack that goes with the Rocky films. I'm a keen cyclist and when I'm out cycling I love to listen to 'Eye of the Tiger', it really gives me some kind of power and I push myself that much harder! I will always have a place for the Rocky movies in my heart! Andrew

I have all of them on DVD as a box set, except the last one Rocky Balboa.
Hmm favorite part Rocky beating Drago with the Russian crowd cheering him.
Least favorite Mickey dying an Paulie becoming a huge jerk, that thing Rocky owes him.
Also Rocky losing his last fight, an never taking the Tommy Gunn fight into the ring.
