Sylvester Stallone was once asked: What's your favorite movie, "Rocky" or ''Rambo?" Then he replied: '' I love them both but ''Rocky'' is my first baby, so I gotta go with him.'' It's pretty obvious that Sylvester Stallone and ''Rocky'' are the same person now and not two separated people. He admitted that in an interview, but we can descry that with his continuous posts of ''Rocky'' pictures. He is thinking about ''Rocky'' movies every day and he never misses a chance to remind us of the unique moments he lived during those films.
We assorted some of those pictures to show you, so the true fans can recall those glorious days :
Sylvester Stallone remembers ''Rocky IV'' moments
''Rocky IV'' was one of the most difficult films to shoot because they had to direct ten minutes of real boxing. Almost every punch was real and most of them were painful. Let's not forget that Dolph Lundgren sent Stallone to the hospital for two weeks, because he told him: ''Punch me in the chest as hard as you can.'' After those punches, Stallone had difficulty breathing and was taken to a nearby emergency room. It was discovered that his blood pressure was over 200. Lundgren had punched him so hard in the chest that Stallone's heart had slammed up against his breastbone and began to swell, cutting off the blood supply and restricting the oxygen flow throughout the body.
It seems Stallone remembers those days like it was yesterday and here's what he has to say:
Dolph Lundgren had proved to be the best choice for Ivan Drago. It is remarkable that over 8,000 people auditioned for the part of Ivan Drago.
Sylvester Stallone talks about Apollo Creed
Now that ''Creed 2'' is in the process, Stallone remembers his old buddy Apollo Creed from ''Rocky IV'' and specifically his fighting and dancing scenes.We all remember that the Master of Disaster knew how to give a performance!
He was a great fighter and a great entertainer too. Let's see what Stallone has to say about that:
It is no coincidence that Sylvester Stallone remembered both Apollo Creed and Ivan Drago at the same time he was writing the script for ''Creed 2.'' It is pretty obvious that we will have some flashbacks with Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed from ''Rocky III'' or ''Rocky IV.'' We can imagine that those are some emotional scenes between friends or some inspiring words between their fights. That wouldn't be a surprise since we had many of those scenes at both movies.
