[@steviejetera1601]

I don't understand why people hate Rocky 5 it's my favorite

[@steviejetera1601]

Not everybody agrees rocky5 is the weakest.... Street fight made it exciting

[@steviejetera1601]

I agree wholeheartedly with Creed 3 criticism...I wish he got Dame a few pro fights and they could have flashed through that... plus using Dame's amateur background as golden gloves champ could have got him to the big fight...they went about that wrong..they cut a lot out that was in the trailer but great movie overall

[@omizj6951]

I always thought he should’ve been nominated for an Academy award for Rocky 6 before Creed 1. The speech he gives his son in the movie always gives me goosebumps.

[@kondor282]

I agree rocky 5 is awsome

[@Jay-Zech]

You know, of all the modern “legacy” sequels and/or remakes, I truly think that the Creed trilogy is one of, if not THE, best examples of how to do it. Truly an excellent follow up to a classic franchise.

[@ixg1297]

Fs I rly thought it was gunna be a cash grab like pretty much all the legacy sequels but you can tell Michael B Jordan cares so much for this franchise just like Stallone did

[@Jay-Zech]

@@ixg1297 Yep! It’s very clear there was a lot of love and care on the part of Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler, just like Stallone. That’s the key to making a good follow up.

[@STYLIX_]

And it's all thanks to Tony Bellew

[@christhomas1806]

Movies like Creed and Top Gun: Maverick really show how well legacy sequels/reboots/requels can work with the right crew and creative team behind them. You don't have to necessarily reinvent the wheel; just tell a good story, give us characters we can root for and the results will speak for themselves

[@repsactroopsob6707]

And cobra Kai. But in terms of movie your right.

[@kpacf]

I agree greatly. Creed 3 really felt like it was missing an additional 15 minutes we needed

[@steviejetera1601]

I agree with that 100% they could have took more time with dang probably put them in a few pro fights first before the championship... Things don't work like that

[@terminallumbago6465]

And like he said, I wish they would have at least given us an update on what Rocky was up to, even if he wasn’t physically present. Is he alive and retired with his family? Has he passed away in between films? Hopefully that question is answered in the inevitable Creed 4.

[@brjdencrewe1922]

Agreed. A little more build up and animosity between Donny and Dame. Have Dame in public humiliating him. Dame's rise and respect as a fighter wouldn't made a big difference. Still a good film.

[@liamvoegt857]

It felt like that although the movie did a great job getting straight to the point. They could've had a montage of Damien winning more fights and showing his lifestyle and possibly there could've been a scene where he fights Drago and obviously wins and that could lead up to the final fight.

[@brjdencrewe1922]

@@liamvoegt857 I was with you all the way until the fight with Drago. They’re doing a spinoff with Drago. Can’t have him losing to Dame. I’d preferably had him shaming and calling out Creed as well as winning some fights.

[@coreychristian2312]

Rocky II being second to last is absolutely criminal. It’s the most cohesive movie in the franchise lol

Agreed. And IV is too high even though it’s a guilty pleasure.

[@romanhoppe3868]

[@thebluraycollector1327]

I agree this one not only felt powerful with the fight and training as those kids were following him but this one pulls on my heart strings the most.

Creed II is my favorite of the series. The director made a really compelling sequel.

Rocky IV is the most rewatchable out all of them with the best final fight. Almost 40 years later and it still makes you sit up in your seat during the final fight. They really put in a supreme effort there. The soundtrack is still amazing and Vince DiCola made some incredible contributions to it.

[@coolguyyy9071]

I still regret saying that making Rocky train Apollo Creed’s son was a bad idea after seeing the Creed Trilogy they really went into the right direction

[@mike91mdk45]

IGN also ranked Rocky II 2nd to last. I really thought people were higher on that one. It's always been my personal favorite. The scene where duke tries to convince apollo not to go after rocky again was great, as was rocky's emotion after winning. "YO ADRIAN.....I DID IT!!!! "

[@laurentkasprowicz]

My favorite too Ith Rocky 4

[@CD-603]

It's my favourite one as well

[@Klamp20XX]

Rocky 2 is the best Rocky film.

[@boxingbull523]

It's definitely one of the best!

[@kingexclusivo]

Rocky 2 is the best movie.

[@thembanitheone]

What I liked about Creed 3's antagonist is you really get where Damian's desperation comes from and how it drives his more extreme ruthless actions. He says himself he doesn't have a lot of time left and the movie leaves no doubt that this man is debateably past that prime window for a boxer.. that's why he gets dirty... that's why he pushes it behind the scenes to set up the title shot... and while he's not an iron tank like Drago (we see him take some pretty significant damage in both fights against Chavez and against Adonis) he's just so unhinged and experienced enough that he's unpredictable and honestly scary. This is a man who's been robbed of the best years of his life and he's going to make sure you feel that pain he has inside if you have the misfortune of standing across fom him in a boxing ring.

[@OhioKing_Z]

Well said. I wanted them to fight to a draw in the end but I guess that wouldn’t have fit the theme of Donnie “beating” his past. Especially since he’s the protagonist

[@chrissuponcic6277]

Donnie isn't even in Creed 3 he's become Adonis. Adonis isn't a sympathetic character he's basically Apollo from Rocky 1. There's just no stakes in their fight its two past their prime boxers essentially fighting over ego. If anything the better movie would have been Adonis training the fighter Damian cheated to beat

Your Rocky Balboa story is not that silly Sean.... My Wife and I were expecting our first child around December 20th 2006- and after a false start - we left the hospital- decided to go see Balboa. Loved it. Our Son was born dec 21 st. Now watching the whole series with our Son, who loves movies- we just finished Creed last night. I have an even better appreciation of the whole series - after watching it with him. I do think Rocky Balboa is my favorite. Your channel is great btw- thanks for all you do.

[@Bit2brain]

Stallone’s performance in Creed was among his best ever. Stallone has created one of the most inspiring characters in Rocky.

[@cooperneil6207]

The poetry of Ivan throwing the towel when Rocky didn't is beautiful

[@jamesg8175]

Rocky V is so underrated! I love the back to basics story. Also that mickey scene.

[@Man_in_a_Gucci_Suit]

Rocky 5 made me feel depressed I liked a lot of the ideas but Sean’s right bad execution overall

[@troymazzei1140]

Really interesting take, I liked the street fight because it's just so over the top in a fun way

[@daviddemeuse5660]

I’m a big fan of rocky 5 I like the tones and ideas explored in it. The Mickey scene is amazing

[@chrissuponcic6277]

I was so disappointed with Creed 3 it made me take a second look at Rocky 5. It's actually a much better film than it was received at the time.

[@micjoseph6250]

I'm 49 I watched my first Rocky movie R3 in theaters at age 7 , I saw R4 in theaters at age 10 and I agree , Rocky4 is under rated , I have it as the #1 Rocky movie. Creed 2 in my mind is a direct sequel. If I am making Creed 4 I would mirror Rocky 4 and make it a rematch to Rocky 4 and have an aponent kill Adonis in the ring and Drago evenge Adonis death. They shoukd have had Adonis and Creed become friends in Creed 3 and Creed 4 mirror, R4

[@Soopology]

I recently rewatched Creed 2 & it hit me even more than it did before. The theme of fatherhood & those learning curves along the way really stood out. It’s a movie that lays the groundwork all the way through & that doesn’t works for the general audience. But when Ivan waved the towel for his son & truly showed that he loved him above all else…yea. Great film. Also Creed is absolutely a better fill than Rocky, but we all knew what would be number 1! Lol

Man it's my least favorite it's like the character of Donnie we loved was replaced by Adonis. The Adonis character is basically Apollo from Rocky 1. Their fight seemed like a sparing match between 2 men who were motivated only by their own egos

One thing that really annoyed me is the absence of rocky was never explained. There were so many times in the movie where it fits rockys character to reach out to adonis and be there for him, but he didnt for no reason. If you're going to cut out rocky you should have a reason and there wasn't any

certainly each to their own lol heres my list also thank you for your work Sean its always appreciated 09. Rocky V 08. Rocky III 07. Rocky II 06. Creed II - I personally feel this film as far too many plot contrivances to not be at the bottom of the Creed films here. I did give the film 4 stars but the plot certainly as many holes. 05. Rocky IV 04. Rocky Balboa 03. Creed 02. Creed III - Just feel this film is so personal and creates a backstory for Dame while moving on the Adonis story, This for me is a fantastic film with incredible performances and a well told story with tons of heart the one thing I expected this film to lack it didn't in the end love it 5 stars from me personally. The least formulaic and most inventive and biggest risks taken in the franchise. I feel they paid off in spades. Jonathan Majors is incredible in this film and elevates it to a different level kind of movie for me. 01. Rocky - Well we knew this would be number 1 and probs will be on everyones list its just that damn good.

Great franchise and really enjoyed Creed III but Rocky is in a class by its self and is one of the best movies ever made.

[@charonthereflector8053]

I think my ranking would probably have to be(excluding Creed 3 until I see it): 8. Rocky 5(self explanatory) 7. Rocky 2(same reasons as Sean) 6. Rocky(the main reason this is so slow is because I just find Mickeys change of heart with training Rocky a bit too sudden rewatching it a few days ago it’s like Rocky gets the fight and Mick just changes his mind) 5. Rocky IV (a bit too 80s for this 90s baby but still love it) 4. Rocky III (Clubber Lang is the king of trash talk) 3. Creed 2(love the humanizing of Drago, the training scenes, Victor destroying Creed in their first fight is super reminiscent of Rocky losing to Clubber Lang, the ending fight might be my favorite in the series with one of my favorite moments in the final fight when the ref checks on Creed after he pounds the mat and pushes himself to his feet and asks his name and he just goes “CREED!!!” I have no idea why but I get hyped af and end up goin “you damn right let’s go!” Every single time 2. Creed(this one to me is probably the best written of the films with Donny’s journey, finding Rocky and his sort of state of almost hopelessness? and that moment in the final fight with Adonis goin “I have to prove it that I’m not a mistake” is something I relate to so much personally and Rocky’s speech to him when he says that gets me everytime) 1. Rocky Balboa(having this one this high is probably a bit of a hot take but idc, Stallone did his thing in this one and I love every second. The speech he gives his son outside the restaurant is one I go back to whenever I need some grounding and reminder to just keep pushing, this is my favorite one to rewatch)

It's difficult to rank because do you think of them from the perspective of a middle aged person, or from the perspective you were when they were released. For example, Rocky the original was my least favorite as a kid but I have a significantly different perspective of it as an adult.

@@ivangabriel4868 exactly I agree. Biggest problems with Creed 3 for me was just how unrealistic it was. Damien who had never had a professional fight in his life gets a shot at the title just because he knows Adonis, and then wins by throwing 3 illegal punches, kicking and elbowing. That just seemed ridiculous. Also wasn’t a fan of the anime dream fight. But there was elements of the film I liked.

I stood up and pointed at the TV when I saw Rocky 3's ranking. It's the goat. If you were 10 years older, you'd have more respect for this movie. Your analysis was really good though, and the stuff you picked up on was really pro. You sound like a writer (I'm a 20-year book editor)

[@SeanChandlerTalksAbout]

Appreciate it I love all of these movies except 5. I’ve watched 3 a zillion times. It’s just tough when you’re ranking a bunch of movies you love. But yeah I was a decade too late to enjoy the original release of 3

[@corymateo15]

I agree with Creed 3 dude! Act 2 to 3 missed a little bit to me, and the resolution was too quick imo. But I did miss Rocky, mostly when Creeds mother passed.

[@samhaigler1716]

Rocky 4 is a masterpiece. Rocky 1 is perfection.

[@kondor282]

Rocky 2 is the best for me. It has the best montages and fight

[@taylordunekacke5784]

The scene in Rocky V with Mickey might be the best scene in the whole franchise!

[@sonalchd]

My fav rocky is 3rd or 4th one. And fav creed is the 2nd one.

[@LeStryfe]

I would have placed Rocky 3 higher, but it's a great list. Rocky 2 was my favorite movie when I was 7, but I realized it stunk about ten years ago, lol

[@BluRayAddict1]

Great ranking Sean. I still have to watch Creed 3. My ranking as of now is. 1. Rocky (Amazing) 2. Rocky Balboa (Amazing) 3. Creed (Amazing) 4. Rocky 4 (Amazing) 5. Rocky 3 (Good) 6. Rocky 2 (Good) 7. Creed 2 (Ok) 8. Rocky 5 (Bad but still watchable)

[@78macka]

Hey Sean, when are you going to rank the Best Picture nominees this year? And one more thing, and I know this does sound difficult. I'd like to see you rank all 94 Best Picture winners but it's probably going to be 95 best picture winners. I know it sounds hard but not only do I want to see you do it, I'm planning to do it soon as well. Edit: I brought this up because Rocky won Best Picture, Director and Editing.

[@CD-603]

How many best picture winners have you seen

[@TJMcDonough]

@@CD-603 I'll list on what I saw West Side Story First half of Lawrence of Arabia First half of My Fair Lady The Sound of Music Oliver! Annie Hall Kramer vs Kramer Chariots of Fire Gandhi Terms of Endearment Amadeus Out of Africa The Last Emperor Rain Man Driving Miss Daisy Dances With Wolves Unforgiven Schindler's List Forrest Gump Titanic Shakespeare In Love First half of Gladiator Chicago The Lord of The Rings: The Return of The King Million Dollar Baby Slumdog Millionaire The King's Speech Argo 12 Years A Slave Spotlight La La Land (just kidding) First third of Green Book CODA

[@CD-603]

@@TJMcDonough fair play. You really should get the 70s watched as there are so many classics that actually won BP. The ones I've seen are On the waterfront Bridge on the river kwai West side story Lawrence of Arabia The sound of music The French Connection The Godfather The sting The Godfather 2 One flew over the cuckoo's nest Rocky The Deer Hunter Chariots of Fire Gandhi Platoon Rain Man Dances with wolves Silence of the lambs Schindler's list Unforgiven Forrest Gump Brave heart Titanic Gladiator A beautiful mind LOTR The Departed No country for old men Slumdog millionaire The Kings speech Argo 12 years a slave Birdman Spotlight Moonlight Shape of water Green Book Parasite Nomadland Coda Everything everywhere all at once (presumably)

[@TJMcDonough]

@@CD-603 One you have to watch is Woody Allen's Annie Hall. It's one of my favorite movies because of the acting, comedy and writing. Everything about the movie is perfect. It's the best script ever put to a movie. That movie is a required watch. And like I said, I'm still planning to watch all of the winners. But I want to get through the worst ones first. I started with Oliver. So I'm planning on watching Out of Africa maybe.

[@CD-603]

@@TJMcDonough ya I have it on my watch list. I'm also looking forward to Kramer v Kramer. Oliver is probably the worst one I've seen as well, and it doesn't help that it beat 2001 a space Odyssey

[@samlesueur]

I love Rocky 3 so damn much

[@furiousd36]

Where would you place Rocky IV: The Director’s Cut?

[@TheDrexLord]

As someone who just watched all the films. I can say rocky 2 is my favorite, the creed films are great, the second is better than the first, rocky 5 isn't horrible, but far from great, and rocky 1 is kinda overrated, and rocky 4 is better than rocky 3

[@saje1988]

Rocky 3 is my favorite
