ROCKY 2 Filming Locations NEVER SEEN BEFORE IN 2022 - Where The Movie Was Made - Proposal Scene

[@TampaJay]

It was a very quick weekend, I had a little less than 48 hours in Philly and barely slept a wink, but I had one heck of a great time creating this video! This one was at the top of my list to create and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to return to Philadelphia and track down (and go the distance) .. these locations. Thank you all for watching I will put a link to the last Rocky filming locations video that I created in Philadelphia, in case you missed it.. Keep on punching my friends! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aH3LoGNuZsqki7M

Great video and extensive as always. Quick question for you - clearly the area seems rather interesting to say the least. Outside of comments of what are you doing? Did you have anything physical happen to you? I wanna go there and these locations for myself. I already know it's a different part of the country. I'm also trying to find a smaller camera so I wouldn't draw too much attention towards me. I have a GoPro but maybe there's something smaller on the market. If you know of any please let me know. Have a good day.

John 3:18 “He that believeth in Him is not condemned; but He that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers,and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.” 1 Corinthians 6:18 Flee fornication. Every other sin which a man doeth is outside the body, but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. Matthew 12:45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.” Romans 8:6 6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace, Luke 12:20 20 But God said unto him, ‘Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee. Then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?’ 1 Timothy 5:6 6 But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth. 1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Be not deceived: Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners shall inherit the Kingdom of God. 1 John 2:17 21st Century King James Version 17 And the world passeth away and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Romans 12:2 2 And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Colossians 2:10 10 And ye are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power, Deuteronomy 6:14 Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people who are round about you 2 Corinthians 11:14 14 And no marvel, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Jeremiah 7:18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke Me to anger. 1 Corinthians 10:20 But I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils and not to God; and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. 1 Timothy 2 5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, Deuteronomy 8:19 And it shall be, if thou at all forget the Lord thy God and walk after other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish. Deuteronomy 18:10 There shall not be found among you any one who maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or who useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, 11 or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. Proverbs 7:27 27 Her house is the way to hell, leading down to the chambers of death. 1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true; and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ.

Proverbs 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. 1 John 4 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is not of God; and such is the spirit of Antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come, and even now already it is in the world. 2 John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.

John 11 25 Jesus said unto her, “I am the resurrection and the Life. He that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; 26 and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?” John 6 68 Then Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life, Psalm 119 30 I have chosen the way of truth; Thy judgments have I laid before me. Psalm 119 11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee. Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 1 Corinthians 2:5 that your faith should not stand on the wisdom of man, but on the power of God. 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walketh about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 1 John 2 16 For all that is in the world - the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life - is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. James 1 21 Therefore lay apart all filthiness and the superfluity of wickedness, and receive with meekness the engrafted Word, which is able to save your souls. 1 Corinthians 15 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. 1 Thessalonians 5 9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ John 3 18 “He that believeth in Him is not condemned; but He that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3 36 He that believeth in the Son hath everlasting life; and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.” Luke 6:5 21st Century King James Version 5 And He said unto them, “The Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath.” Matthew 22 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, “Ye do err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

How sad that the locations where this movie was filmed are taken over by the homeless. The city of Philadelphia should declare these places cultural heritage of humanity

[@sempre_avanti_01]

I lived in an area called Girard Estates which was right around the corner from Lambert Street. I was 8 years old and I heard Rocky 2 was filming. During that stick ball scene, I was off camera in the distance along with a lot of other people who showed up to watch. If I recall, Sly was very generous with his time, saying hello to everyone. I took pictures that day and I know I have them but it's just a matter of digging through the old albums! Thanks for you video, great work.

[@themerchantofengland]

wow, be great to find them and put them up somewhere for Rocky geeks like me to see 👀

[@maxxt3916]

Great story. Thank you for sharing this.

[@CristheGirl]

I'm so proud of you! I know this was a challenging one.. from all of that research to not having much time in Philly and the complications you came across, to the days of editing the footage... you work so hard for these videos and it SHOWS! Your intro was fantastic, I actually legit got goosebumps! The zoo looks so cool, even just the little bit you showed. I always wanted to visit that zoo so I will have to make that happen soon. Maybe we can go together :) Glad you found your flamingoooss, even if they were in a window haha! "....................... idk if this is it" lol! And the condominiums and Father Carmine scene, haha! So great babe, this is one of the many things that sets you apart from the rest!! Did I miss the puppies in the window or did they not make the cut? They were so cute! The Nordstrom Rack was pretty amazing too, crazy those pillars are still in there! Awwwww... the plantssss!! Great job babe, it is a Hoya!! Thank you for thinking of me

[@KrazyJoesConcessionStand]

Next time he’s in Philadelphia you need to remind him to call his old buddy Joe. He always forgets!

[@TampaJay]

Yo Cris the girl! You’re amazing. Thank you for watching Bella for me while I was off tracking these locations down. I’m happy you enjoyed it. Wow that weekend was a blur…

[@peterjohnson8935]

I don't find much worth watching on KZbin these days. But then I found this. 👍💪

[@thedrewsephYT]

"HEY YO, Father Carmine! It's me, Tampa Jay!" LMFAO. I loved seeing you hanging out in my city! I live only 45 minutes from it, next time you're in town hit me with a "YO!"

[@TampaJay]

Yo buddy thank you for watching love your Philly

[@Phillyguy316]

As a native of Philadelphia, I was even impressed with how much you put into this video TJ as well as the great job you did on the original Rocky two years ago. That neighborhood where Rocky lived is a lot rougher than when you were there the first time, so glad you got the footage you needed and got out of there. By the way, the interior of the church where Rocky and Adrian's wedding took place was actually in Los Angeles. at the old St. Joseph's Catholic Church which stood at 218 E 12th in the downtown area. A lot of people thought it was in Philly since the exterior was shot there including myself until I saw an old photo and it matched up. The church burnt down in 1983 after an electrical short in the wiring under the floorboards. A new church was built in it's place.

[@TampaJay]

Thanks buddy . I was scratching my head at where they filmed the wedding scenes, I knew it was in LA but didn’t know what church, thanks for letting us know. Thanks for watching man I’m happy you enjoyed my experience

[@Duzer0072]

Your attention to detail, respect for communities and love for the world are always present in your videos. This one is by far the best. Thank you and keep it up.

Please the only maybe sketchy area was where the gym is.

[@ianwatts771]

Try growing up around it lmao cool enough I grew up 2 blocks away from Micks Gym and I had the exact same address as Rocky 2313, not as sketchy where I lived but pretty close to the Zombies/Crackheads lol My Dad and my uncle are also running with Sly at one point they're front and center and he had me screenshot it so I could print out a poster of it for him lol Us Philadelphians treat Rocky like a superhero

Well done Jay! That was a great sequel to your spectacular Rocky I filming locations video. I'm so glad you did this. I've made two trips to Philly myself for Rocky filming locations. The first was in 10/19 for Rocky I and the second was for Rocky Balboa in 10/21. Like yourself, I noticed how much worse the neighborhood around Rocky's apartment has become. Not that it was ever good to begin with, but the second time I went I felt so unsafe I drove right past Rocky's apartment and didn't bother to get out of my car. The same for little Marie's Rocky Balboa apartment. I didn't feel safe enough to stop and couldn't get out of the area fast enough. I've decided any future trips I make to Philly will primarily focus on running the Rocky steps and I will stay out of the hood. Thank you for your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@hectorlopez1069]

A masterpiece movie from the 70s. This movie will never get old. It will always be a classic movie.

[@georgethephillyguy]

Tampa Jay, great job on the filming locations. Born and raised in Philly I know all about the Kensington neighborhoods, back in the day I use to live in Kensington. Im glad to see you made it out ok .... I know Kensington Ave is not what it use to be .... I can remember back in the day driving to work while they were filming Rocky 3. Fun fact my mother almost had a part in one of the Rocky movies, I wanna say #5. I am a subscriber to your channel along with some of your friends as well, Adam The Woo, World Of Micah, Paging Mr Morrow, Jackie Super Enthused .... I will be making my way to Orlando in September, If I should run into you I will say hello and maybe we can colab and do a video at one of the WDW parks.

[@TampaJay]

Thanks George really love Philly man feels like home

[@AlLucard225]

That montage was everything! Thank you Tampa Jay. You're awesome!

[@TampaJay]

Thank you

[@nwtraveler5266]

Nice presentation. You covered some historic movie spots. Thanks.

[@stevensanfilippo6338]

Great video and tour of the Rocky 2 locations in Philly! Glad you made it work!!

[@TampaJay]

Thank you Steven

[@davefilms345]

Absolutely brilliant this, well done and to do it all in 24hrs that's some filming

[@TampaJay]

Thank you it was fun but I had to hustle

[@bigroymoney5564]

Hey Jay great video and welcome to Philly! The Spectrum and The Wells Fargo center actually existed at the same time. Once the Center was built the spectrum was used for concerts and minor league sports. Xfinity Live is now in the foot print of the old spectrum and actually has some old statues that used to sit outside the spectrum. Hope you enjoyed your time in Philly. Come back to Citizens bank great spot to catch a ballgame.

[@oellinas]

Yea came here to say this. The Wells Fargo center is where jfk field was. I think xfinity live is where the spectrum was

[@TheREELGEEK]

I and a friend of mine were among the kids that were picked out from the Italian market and brought over to the parkway to shoot the final run sequence up the steps. We did about 22 takes running behind Sly toward the art museum. He kept stopping and having to yell cut because the kids up front kept running too fast and were passing him. He was upset after the 3rd or 4th take of having to stop because the kids wouldn't listen to his direction. Me and my friend were among the kids in the very back but it was a fun day. Celebrated later on with a delicious Geno's cheesesteak and cannolis from termini bakery. Btw, the Wells Fargo Center and the Philadelphia spectrum were on two separate plots of land about 300 yards from one another. The spectrum was located to the north of where the Wells Fargo Center now sits. Directly left of the Xfinity bar complex but on the same plot of land. Directly across the street was veterans stadium further to the north. The Wells Fargo arena currently sits at the Northern end of what was once JFK stadium where live aid took place. Also home to the Army-Navy games for decades.

[@realgrapedrop]

Wow cool memory! Thank you for sharing.

[@TampaJay]

That’s amazing

[@ericmarin6454]

That's awesome! It's been way too long since I've had a geno's cheesesteak, and the delicious whole cherry peppers 🤔😋

[@Patrickjdee66]

Excellent, Thank you Tampa Jay 🎉

[@fitnessisgood4u]

[@TampaJay]

Thanks buddy

[@moviejohn75]

My favorite Rocky film 😀🎥

[@GeorgedownunderAustralia]

Awsome shots from probably the most famous franchise movies i grew up watching Rocky you never disappoint 😀the ending was fantastic had good laugh and a smile 😃 I can't wait for the next adventure bro And again you make the videos really interesting and funny jay 😄 Good job my friend Catch you again sooon 🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲👍

[@TampaJay]

Thanks George

[@chriswylie253]

Excellent point you brought up about Sly's pec tear. He tore his pec training for Rocky 2 and had to change the entire film so that Mickey had him fight right handed to supposedly protect Rocky's bad eye, but in reality it was so he would be jabbing with his left hand as he couldn't move his right after the pec tear. Everyone thought the shoot would have to be cancelled after the injury but Sly had the will(and writing ability) to make it work.

[@staceyprince4824]

Awesome vlog Jay! Made me want to punch the heavy bag! Glad ur safe! Appreciate your respect for the locals! Can’t wait for the next adventure!

[@TampaJay]

Thanks Stacey

[@themerchantofengland]

hey man, just discovered you and I'm binging on your content, I'm loving it! BTW do you know you sound just like Adam the Woo?

[@trish5556]

This was such an awesome video! You went above and beyond to find filming locations and the running you did at the end! I loved all the Rocky movies, so this meant so much. The movies had some great songs that became popular in their own right. Yes, they were inspirational!

[@TampaJay]

Thank you Trish

[@dennisud]

Nice to see your back in Phili! Glad to see this!

[@PlayitagainVHS]

I remember seeing the Rocky Statue for the first time.It use to sit outside the Philadelphia Spectrum. As a kid,we would climb up the statue and sit on the top of the statue.When the 76ers won the world championship, someone put a 76ers championship t-shirt on the statue.lol 👍Rocky Forever !!!!

[@naboleiausa273]

Awesome, Tks for the videos

Great job , excellent video

[@TampaJay]

Thank you Jose

[@jasonschannel1315]

I really enjoyed your video it was really cool you being up there checking out all the locations of Rocky 2 especially seeing the Rocky statue I always wanted to be able to see that one day and I liked the fact that you made this a long video showing as much of the locations that you did. Great job on the editing and all the hard work it takes to put these videos out and the Ninja Turtles on the wall was awesome as well and I like that you did the Rocky run as well that's definitely a dream come true to do.

[@iamthomasonyoutube]

Amazing job jay! Seen some of the places in person as well, was blown away by Kensington. Literally had no idea how bad it was, very sad

[@charlesjanssens6770]

My greetings to you, funny, I"m the first to gave you thumbs up. LOL

[@sakisgalinas2133]

Amazing video Hello from Greece

[@TampaJay]

Thank you

[@tycobb550]

Man what a great video as usual. Thanks for the tour. I'm so mad at myself about right now. I was in Philly for a convention in 2014 for a week and didn't go looking for these locations. I did run the steps and saw statue. Was at liberty hall to in the back and didn't realize they filmed there. Thanks for braving the locales. Again, great job. I wanna go back.

[@TampaJay]

Thank you Ty

[@hectorlopez1069]

I think rocky understands Italian when father carmine, speaks to him.

[@Wolfenman]

Excellent job as always, Jay! Perfect matchups. Some great nostalgia in this video! Awesome! 👍 👍
