ROCKY (1976) | (her) FIRST TIME WATCHING | Movie Reaction

ROCKY: Yo, Adrian!
While that is the most famous and repeated line from the film, in Greg's opinion Paulie's "my sister really likes you" delivery or Rocky's "because I can't sing or dance" are the true MVPs. We dive into the 1976 underdog story that made Stallone a household name - and loved every second of it.

Rocky's gentle seduction of Adrian was always awkward, but it's a shame that today it's seen as so "problematic."

[@level10tenx81]

Words are losing their basic direct dictionary

[@level10tenx81]

Every decade or so it happens. Usually new words also get added to Webster . I still don't see how disgusting words like SHIT were and are used for describing nice things, places, actions.... I've watched YTrs react to Movie and TV shows and when a nice looking woman is walking across a street while 1 or 2 young men notice & continue to look until shes up on the curb . THE Reactors call him a creep. The men only looked. No words no whistles , not one stupid face. Many more harmless scenes are being described with serious accusation vocabulary , like stalker, abuser, ... on and on. Hopefully I'll live long enough to watch it all happen again. And see how future adults handle their growing children's reason & additude. As long as people keep trying to connect and understand . I think I'll call my parents!

[@curtismartin2866]

Because it is. Blocking a door so a woman can't leave is a problem. Same thing for that scene in Blade Runner, well except for the Replicant angle.

[@stirgy4312]

I don't get that AT ALL. No means no absolutely, but this is a movie about two flawed characters. I guess today he would have been brought up on kidnapping charges

[@thesamplecorner]

I mean even tho Rocky’s intentions were nothing but good with Adrian there are were few problems with his behaviour I think that’s quite obvious. But they liked each other so I guess we can ignore those bits, no point in pretending the scene was completely innocent either.

[@montist1]

Thank you for trying to understand Paulie. I’m a huge fuck up too. I’ll never stop thinking about Paulie. Great reaction! Thanks so much

[@videovillagereactions]

Thank you for watching. I'm with you on Paulie - he's such a tragic character but you know deep down there's kindness to him (okay, VERY deep down). :) - Greg

[@montist1]

@@videovillagereactions very deep down! This movie is full of that stuff. Brilliance disguised as trash.

[@videovillagereactions]

@@montist1 That's a great way to put it. Everyone in the film from Rocky to Adrian to Paulie - even Micky - is overlooked by "the world" based on the superficial - but each of their hearts make them much more than meets the eye.

[@bryce253]

BTW - Joe Frazier is one of the greatest heavyweight fighters of all time. He fought through the late 60's - 70's. He had two of the most classic and legendary fights of all time against Mohammad Ali. He won the first one, which was the first time Ali ever lost a fight. He later lost the title to George Foreman who lost it to Ali. Frazier then fought Ali in "The thriller in Manila" fight where he lost to Ali. While we appreciate the Rocky movies and they are great, let's not forget the actual champions that inspired these movies. We all know there is a lot of Ali in Apollo and the overall inspiration for "Rocky" came from a fight where a local unknown fighter gave a great showing in a novelty fight against Ali in '75. His name was Charles Wepner I believe. But he almost went the distance with Ali before being stopped.

[@videovillagereactions]

Good stuff, Bryce. Thank you for that and agree - remembering the real boxers who inspired these films is important. Joe was before my time but I certainly saw plenty of highlights over the years. Maybe we can get Des to watch ALI one of these days... - Greg

[@seanbumstead1250]

Here is a fact with Rocky running in the street market,it was done out of the blue,none of the vendors were expecting it and the guy giving him the apple was genuine

[@videovillagereactions]

I legit did not know that, thanks for that cool fact! - Greg

[@johnwilliams6097]

Exactly right, and I think it was a bit of guerrilla film making because they couldn't afford the licenses, etcetera. They literally popped out of a van and filmed lol. Also, that was Stallone's real dog. I think he had to give him up at one point because he couldn't afford to keep him, but once he found some success he got his buddy back. And I see someone knew much more detail about the wagging tail dog then I did in the comment below haha.

[@kingcassius2586]

39:40 To the best of my knowledge, THIS is the 1st "cliché movie montage." It started with this scene.

[@jasonalcantara8380]

Burgess Meredith (Mickey Goldmill) was a very accomplished actor known for his role in the Rocky series, as well as the original Penguin in Batman: The Movie (1966) and the TV series. Some of his other well known works are Grandpa Gustafson in Grumpy Old Men, and two of my personal favorites, Ancient Elf in Santa Claus: The Movie and the voice of Golobulus in G.I. Joe: The Movie. You might say he was the "The Movie" king. Hahaha...

[@scottalynch]

He was in some great old episodes Twilight Zone too

[@videovillagereactions]

Absolutely agree! Love Burgess. LOVE him. We'll show Des more of his work in weeks to come. - Greg :)

[@insanitypepper1740]

He was in one of the most important episodes of Twiligjt Zone, called "The Obsolete Man", a stark and chilling story of authoritarianism in the future.

[@ProdSangreNueva]

You just watched the best Rocky movie of them all.

[@tooluser]

That 5 min scene with Mic in Rocky's apt isn't just the best scene in the movie, it one of the fucking best scenes in cinema. period. It's a perfect scene.

[@videovillagereactions]

RIGHT?! I'm in total agreement. It's just an amazing scene from start to finish. Good taste, Tooluser! - Greg

[@Augustus087]

Burgess Meredith rocked. He was in a classic Twilight Zone episode, where all he wanted to do was read. He got his wish when he survived the apocalypse, but his glasses were broken, so he could no longer read. He was clearly a stellar actor, chewing up scenes and spitting out lines like no one's business.

[@happyapple4269]

@@Augustus087 did you ever see him in a world war 2 info mercial about how to talk to the british? It was excellent. Legend.

[@Augustus087]

@@happyapple4269 Nope. Never saw that. I would not doubt that it was excellent, however.

[@kissmy_butt1302]

Fun facts: 1) Star Wars and Rocky were released 6 months apart. 2) What gets taken for granted today, especially with cell phones, is the steady cam was invented for Rocky. Without it a lot of the shots in the ring and the signature steps would not be possible. 3) Rocky may hold the record for lowest budget to win the Oscar. It is in the documentary. United Artists wanted to hold it back because they felt they had too many movies released that year and had the favorites to win the Oscar. Rocky went on to be the massive success and upset on Oscar night. 4) Stallone's father is the bell man in the final fight.

[@brom00]

I've always thought when Paulie starts bad mouthing Adrian in the meat locker he got off easy. Rocky would have hit him. He seems to be taking his anger out on the side of beef instead.

[@videovillagereactions]

Oh, I absolutely agree. Rock is looking Paulie in the eye as he goes to work on the slab of beef. It was definitely a message being sent and maybe the only time in the franchise where Rocky tries to intimidate Paulie. It's a GREAT character moment for both. Thanks for the watch and comment! - Greg

[@TrackMaster844]

41:25 - The poster showing the wrong colors was a legit behind the scenes error. But since the movie was so low budget, they couldn’t afford another one. So, they made it part of the narrative, and something to further dampen Rocky’s spirits before the fight.

[@JohnSmith-zw8vp]

For clarification, Apollo won by split decision (rounds won by Apollo:Rocky respectively on each judges' scorecards) -- 9:6, 8:7, 7:8

[@zooks527]

36:09 It was his real dog. He had sold the dog because he had run out of money prior to getting the funding to make the movie and tried to buy it back afterwards. The new owner asked for a crazy amount of money plus a part in the movie (he's the one who tells Rocky about the locker no longer being his). Stallone took the deal and the dog made it into the movie. 44:21 "Apollo, aheed of his time." Back in the day, just about everyone assumed he was doing an only slightly over-the-top version of Muhammed Ali's showmanship.

[@videovillagereactions]

That's good stuff! Thank you for that. I had no idea Danny was the RL owner of the dog. Crazy. Thanks again! - Greg

[@BigGator5]

"You're gonna eat lightnin' and you're gonna crap thunder!" Fun Fact: Sylvester Stallone was inspired to write the screenplay after seeing the Chuck Wepner-Muhammad Ali fight on March 24, 1975, at the Richfield Coliseum in Richfield, Ohio, near Cleveland. The details of that fight is beyond the scope of this comment, but the Creed-Balboa fight parallels that fight in many ways. Making Lemonade Fact: In the film, the poster above the ring before Rocky fights Apollo shows Rocky wearing red shorts with a white stripe when he actually wears white shorts with a red stripe. This was an actual mistake made by the props department that they could not afford to rectify, so Sylvester Stallone came up with the idea for the scene where Rocky points out the mistake himself. The comment about Rocky's robe being too baggy came about the same way - the robe delivered to the set was far too baggy for Stallone, so rather than hope people wouldn't notice, the character himself simply points it out. Guerrilla Filmmaking Fact: Most of the scenes of Rocky jogging through Philadelphia were shot with no permits, no equipment, and no extras. The shot where he runs past the moored boat for example, the crew were simply driving by the docks, and John G. Avildsen saw the boat, and thought it would make a good visual, so he had Sylvester Stallone simply get out of the van and run along the quays, while Avildsen himself filmed from the side door. A similar story concerns the famous shot of Rocky jogging through the food market. As he runs, the stall keepers and the people on the sidewalks can clearly be seen looking at him in bemusement. While this works in the context of the film to suggest they're looking at Rocky, in reality, they had no idea why this man was running up and down the road being filmed from a van. During this scene, the famous shot where the stall owner throws Rocky an orange was completely improvised by the stall owner, who had no idea that a movie was being filmed and that he would be in it.

[@videovillagereactions]

43:40 - And the sweaters were initially white with red writing, but the colors bled together when they went thru the wash Xp Another behind the scenes issue they made work, with Rocky’s corner looking shabby in comparison to Creed’s.

[@earth7551]

Another criminally underrated 🥊gem is the 1992 movie " Gladiator " I'm surprised it doesn't have a reaction

The music in the fight makes it memorable… going the distance is incredible and inspirational..love how you got my favorite two seconds of showing the promoter smoking his cigar with look of surprise/respect watching Rocky stand his ground…

[@danielcasey4854]

Great reaction! This is the first movie I saw in a theater, I was a kid when it came out. The crowd went nuts! What a great first time movie experience. Stallone admitted this was his masterpiece and he has been trying to equal it ever since, a Herculean task. To write and star in something as good as this as a first time lead is unbelievable. Many interesting facts about the his movie, but one is Paulie (Burt Young) was actually a good boxer, a Marine Crops champion, and Creed (Carl Weathers) played for the Oakland Raiders and then played football in Canada before stepping into the world of acting.

[@videovillagereactions]

Thanks, Daniel! I didn't know that about Burt Young! Good stuff. Man, Paulie is such a tragic character, love him or hate him, Young's performance as Paulie is just *chef's kiss. And Carl Weathers is THE MAN.

1. Actually Rocky doesn't qualify as a Heavy Weight. He doesn't weigh enough. 2. Adrian looks Way better without her glasses. 3. Stallone kept the turtles and Butkus. The turtles are still alive. Butkus, not so much this thing is 40+ years old. 4. You can't blame Rocky for working for the hustler because he made more doing that than boxing. Gotta pay the bills. 5. Back then sanctioned fights ran 15 rounds. 6. I loved Burgess Meredith A good first time/share is the original "Clash of the Titans" with him. 7. A good First time/share for Stallone is "Tango and Cash" with Kurt Russell. 8. My favorite Rocky movie is "Rocky III''. IV is close second. 9. Welcome to this entertaining rabbit hole.

[@Hapsard]

I like to compare this one to, say four ... Very different movies, and how it comes back to this by Rocky Balboa ... Even more so with the Rambo movies. These first films make me wonder what we might have seen from Stallone if these weren't so popular.

[@Augustus087]

You should buy the DVD/Blue Ray with Stallone's commentary on the movie. Very revealing, especially from a writer's point of view. Well worth the small investment. Also, this film was the first one to feature a "steady cam," which was used to shoot Rocky going up the steps without a jerky motion to the frame. Very much enjoyed your Galaxy Quest reaction. If you have not seen it, may I recommend Casablanca, one of the best movies ever made.

[@videovillagereactions]

Thank you, August! I have to check that commentary out. I have seen a bunch of interviews and behind the scenes stuff on Rocky over the years but missed that one somehow.

[@Tensen01]

So the Dog Butkus was his real dog, who he go as a puppy in 1969. The story is he had written Butkus into the script, but actually had to sell him to make ends meet while shopping it around. One of the first things he did when he got paid for the movie was to go back and buy his dog back. He died in 1981, and Sly said, in 2015, that Butkus was still his desktop wallpaper.

One of my favorite moments is when the interview happens in the meat locker. The interviewer starts over in because Paulie is in the shot. Rocky is ticked off at Paulie for ambushing him with the interview. However, he still references Paulie in the interview because he knows it would make Paulie feel good about himself.

Ok, major disappointment to find out that you didn't continue watching the Rocky movies. I just subscribed because I wanted to watch them all. You turned out to be a coconut channel. Yo-yo reactors.

Nope! We just had some work and health issues that have delayed us. And we had some issues in editing. We're recording Rocky series this month.

What?!?!? So you watched Rocky 9 months ago and never watched Rocky 2??? That's lame. Not subscribing.
