Stallone's infinite midlife crisis

Goddamn is adult life a trip or what. I go through my childhood looking up to and worshiping stallone and his career. Let me tell you, while hanging out in college, went and bought the DVD for Rambo First blood for the first time in my life, sat and watched that movie. Wonderful time I got to say, to sit and watch an old school stallone movie as a huge fan of the Actor.

I mean I can't hate stallone, at least not who he used to be... Who am I to talk, I know... But I literally watched this man's career all my life and never ONCE thought I'd see him going NUTS as he loses his youth.

I think he's sick in the head. Sorry to say, but from what I'm seeing to bring back the Rocky character AGAIN? Even in a spinoff sort of thing, is ridiculous. Rocky Balboa was perfectly fine little way to end the entire franchise. It works as a real standard film. You don't even need to see the other movies to enjoy it, that's why it works. Stallone very smartly made it have its own soul divorced from the previous films. I watch the movie and feel like I'm watching a totally different new rocky franchise to some extent. Sure the old characters are still in it and all, but the movie feels like its own living breathing movie completely disconnected from the earlier rocky movies. In fact that's its biggest flaw, it feels so different that it's hard to view it as a legit sequel. But it is and a far better ending to the franchise than Rocky 5, that gay fucking film.

So now Basically Rocky Balboa wasn't good enough, we're going to get another rocky movie. I hope and pray that this movie's a near damn masterpiece. Or else what we'll see is a fucking karate kid 4. Piss poor attempt at rebooting Karate kid without the actual karate kid and some new bitch in the main role. I loved karate kid as a kid. Loved the sequels, watched all them shits, life was awesome back then man. Fuck though does life repeat itself or what. I was like oh cool karate kid 4, sweet, then I watch this shitty movie that doesn't work at all... raped my kid ass....

I beg stallone don't make this fucking movie unless the script is gold, I beg the man. It's like getting retarded. We got new Rambos, we got new Rocky's like the guy's going crazy with age. I don't mind Rambo sequels, there's no going back after the insanity of Rambo 2 and 3, so make as many crazy sequels to Rambo as you want, who cares, but Rocky is Sacred. Can't fuck with my Rocky franchise... just can't.
