neutral · AI labelView post →Like it's EXPECTED an actor will want their part to be bigger and to look better even when that's obviously the opposite of the point; but this is like Mr. T insisting he was actually the protagonist of "ROCKY III" - excellent dude, great in the film as well! - but... no, he was not 😅
positive · AI labelView post →They should’ve gone back and had Christopher Plummer re-film the Thunderlips scenes so “Rocky III” can be a perfect movie.
negative · AI labelView post →The bronze statue of the fictional boxer Rocky Balboa (played by Sylvester Stallone) is located at the bottom of the 72 steps leading to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The statue, created by artist A. Thomas Schomberg, was donated by Stallone after the Rocky III movie. #art #statue #movie #legend

neutral · AI labelView post →My wife told me that she has never seen any of the Rocky movies. So I put on Rocky III. The later movies are very cartooney and the earlier ones are quite dour. Rocky III is fun, action packed and is a respectable 90 minutes. Now, I should stress my wife didn't say she WANTED to watch a Rocky movie
positive · AI labelView post →The No. 1 Movie When You Were 10 Years Old is How Your 2026 Will Go... So, I've got to choose between Conan the Barbarian, Rocky III, and Porky's. That's a heck of a 2026 🤪

The film's consensus reads, "It's noticeably subject to the law of diminishing returns, but Rocky III still has enough brawny spectacle to stand in the ring with the franchise's better entries". ... Gene Siskel gave the film two-and-a-half stars out of four and wrote,…

neutral · AI labelView post →Hulk Hogan was in Gnomeo and Juliet. And that was his last film role apparently. I could say his film career fell but that would imply his film resume was dignified to begin with and his Gremlins 2 and Rocky III cameos do not count.
neutral · AI labelView post →43 years ago today Rocky III opened. Greatest film of the franchise and I'll die on that hill! Also greatest opening sequence by far!!!! One of the cards in the Topps "Rocky" franchise 40th anniversary set put out a few years ago in my #boxing collection.
positive · AI labelView post →As per Ryan Coogler's movie Creed, Apollo toasted Rocky in that behind-closed-doors fight at the end of Rocky III. kaiju status: CONFIRMED

neutral · AI labelView post →I just found out Kermit The Frog is in Rocky III. I’ve never seen a Rocky movie, and now I guess I have to watch at least three of them. (I also want to watch Creed, though I don’t think that has any Muppets in it.)

neutral · AI labelView post →I have long argued that the 70s ended in mid-1983, so this tracks. What's more: I often cite "Mr. Mom" as a key transition film for those eras, and one of the kids has a Rocky III poster on the wall of their bedroom in that movie.

neutral · AI labelView post →My friends introduced me to all of the Rocky movies in one fell swoop, some 25 years ago (pre-Rocky Balboa). And although I enjoyed them all to varying extents and further enjoy debating their relative merits, one thing was clear: Rocky III is the awesomest Rocky movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Watching BLACK PANTHER. I am doing a chronological re-watch of Ryan Coogler’s work, charting his evolution. Particularly with his women characters. I can see the influence of the ROCKY movies on this film. Especially ROCKY III.

Not best) 90s: Terminator 2: Judgment Day 00s: Oof, what came out in the 2000s? I'll say Atonement 10s: Ugh. Skyfall. Yeah, why not? 20s: Top Gun: Maverick

neutral · AI labelView post →There are three GREAT Rocky films (Rocky, Creed, and Rocky Balboa), one Very Very Good Rocky film (Creed III), a bunch of fine but inconsequential ones (Rocky II, Rocky III, and Creed II), the interesting but later-copied-and-improved Rocky V, and then whatever the fuck Rocky IV is.
neutral · AI labelView post →Movie: Rocky III (Blu-ray) Clubber Lang has the greatest quotes in the Rocky universe. And I say that with all due respect to Ivan Drago in the next movie. Dude is just a certified bad ass. Good movie overall! #filmsky
positive · AI labelView post →That movie is a mashup of Rambo and the Hulk Hogan wrestling scene from Rocky III. Just amazing.

positive · AI labelView post →Had the same issue in an audio round when Eye of the Tiger was played and you had to name the film . They accepted Rocky although it did not feature till Rocky III
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching ROCKY III. Definitely one of my favorites of the Saga. Another great 1982 movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Oh people are going to go for Bull Durham or The Natural, but I want to put in a vote for Rocky III. Is it the best Rocky? No. Is it even the best 80s Rocky? Mayyybe. But is it the most 80s sport movie? Hell yeah. If it doesn't make final 4, I pity you fools.
positive · AI labelView post →"Thirty-nine years since he starred as BA Baracus in The A-Team, and 44 years since Rocky III – the only TV show and movie he’s really remembered for." --- Speak for yourself! For me, it's this. #niche www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle... youtu.be/Ee5VlFFgQMw?...
neutral · AI labelView post →the other good news is this won’t impact our evening plans: getting some cheesesteaks and watching Rocky III. confession: this will be the first time I see that movie in one sitting. it’s a pretty great age where the kid is still pro-hanging out with dad (at least sometimes.)
positive · AI labelView post →Saw 'ET', 'Tron' & 'Rocky III' in theaters. Still watched every other movie on here either on cable or rental MULTIPLE times! I think any way, can't make out the top right corner but I'll assume it's just more greatness!
positive · AI labelView post →I’ve always believed that Hell was a 24/7/365 Hulk Hogan Film Festival (with no ROCKY III or GREMLINS 2 or MUPPETS FROM SPACE).
neutral · AI labelView post →🎵 On this day in 1982 (May 31) Survivor released "Eye Of The Tiger" . 🐅🔥 Written for Rocky III, the song became one of the most iconic movie themes of all time and a defining anthem of the 80s. #80s
neutral · AI labelView post →ROCKY III (1982) My most viewed Rocky film (low double digits) Eye of the Tiger montage in the running for best ever in cinema. C'mon. Has everything. Stakes, character arcs, themes, split screens, smash zooms Possibly favorite Rocky film of the series. Pop, muscled filmmaking
positive · AI labelView post →I was thinking about pro wrestlers in movies, like how Hulk Hogan was in Rocky III, and André the Giant was in Princess Bride, then it hit me. Rocky vs. André the Giant would have been a pretty sick movie. Probably too late now, since André is dead.
neutral · AI labelView post →A ridiculously entertaining movie. Also ridiculous, but it knows it. One of the two ROCKY films I saw in theaters (this first-run and a revival screening of ROCKY III). #Rocky4
positive · AI labelView post →Rocky III and IV are two of the most movie-ass movies ever made, and I love them for it.
