Clubber Lang and Eye of the Tiger. Greatest. Rocky. Movie. Ever.
Clubber Lang and Eye of the Tiger. Greatest. Rocky. Movie. Ever.
Yep. Rocky made it, and thought he could relax. He didn’t stay hungry, and ran into someone who both WAS hungry AND able to eat Rocky alive.
The World's End has such a terrific first act that I almost wish they had rewritten it to remove the sci-fi / action stuff. Don't get me wrong, the action choreography is spectacular, but it's window dressing that feels unnecessary by the end. Nothing about the Blanks hits as hard as Gary drinking the dregs of some…
SUMMER in new york movie. the best kind.
Rocky III among the worst? Wrong! It isn’t the best Rocky movie, but it’s good! Clubber is great, and it tells a story about complacency and fear.
The World’s End is so underappreciated.
Agreed. Toy Story 2 is definitely my favorite of the set.
I would have a lot of trouble putting Temple of Doom above Last Crusade in any ranking, although Last Crusade has nothing on the mine cart chase.
Definitely a case of “fuck it, we’ll never do better than TDK”.
It also never gets enough credit for being a great New York movie.
The recent Planet of the Apes trilogy is fantastic, and War might be the best one. I’m shocked it’s not on here.
I’m with you. I think the constant pace of it sets it apart from the rest. Plus having SLJ as basically a sidekick was an excellent piece of casting.
catch me on the right day and die hard with a vengeance is my fave of the bunch, but i’m glad to see it made neither list!
...so does this mean Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over is passable?
Are you high?! Rocky III is the best Rocky movie of all time, the best boxing movie of all time, and in the top three best sports movies of all time!
Counterpoint-Rocky III is a fantastic movie and frankly, is superior to Rocky IV. You have a much better “villain” in Clubber Lang than Ivan Drago (who’s only reason for existence is because of the Cold War) and it cements the growth in Rocky and Apollo’s relationship from rivals to friends, which lays the groundwork…
Something must be wrong with you. You should try again.
Mission Impossible III onwards is where I get them all mixed up because they all feel and look the same. It’s hard to convey just how much an improvement Harry Potter 3 was over the first 2. A director with a keen visual sense took over and it looked both more real and more magical at the same time. Then 4 happened and…
It’s way worse than something like Rocky III, which just flat out has no business being on this list.
No Cornetto trilogy? No Kung Fu Panda? Bah.
