Rocky Balboa is a legend ... He comes out of retirement to go in the ring once again! & Sylvester Stallone shows us that he still has got it!
When Stallone was asked about what motivated him to bring back Rocky for a last fight, he answered:
"I just didn't like the way the last one ended. Truthfully I thought the last one it, it just wasn't over, you know, you think it's over, and you really go back and you rehash it in your own mind like an athlete. You go, "God, you know, maybe I just retired too soon. Maybe Rocky just retired too soon." And yeah, someone told him he had problems. He had health problems. He, he had a little brain damage, but he never even had a second opinion. He just automatically assumed it. We do have our ups and downs, and it was a down side of his life. But I think that the real affirmation of life is what comes after that? Do you come out of that valley or not, you know?"
The final round of the Academy Award-winning Rocky franchise hits theatres on December 20, 2006. Don't miss it!
