After last weeks Mars Attacks I was ready for more modern films, but Rocky? Really?

Okay, lets face it, there are bad films that we all love. Then there are films that we just don't care about, like the Rocky franchise.

Well, Brian Salisbury just showed me how narrow my thinking is. Damn, now I have to go watch this silly thing again. Brian Salisbury, I officially hate you. <lol>

Rocky's whole appeal is that he's always the underdog and Mr. T was a good upgrade from Apollo Creed just as Drago is a good upgrade to Mr. T. However, they couldn't get much bigger or better than Drago so for Rocky V they had to downgrade the bad-guy fighter and had to compensate for the drop in quality by making Rocky retarded in order to keep him as the underdog.
