Survivor was really good at varying the sound of their songs.

Paulie is a white supremest.

Paulie complains about not being able to see the Rose Bowl, but the fight is on Dec. 25.

Paulie bitching about not being able to watch the Rose Bowl game that will be played a week after the fight.

Paulie wore that same jacket to a protest last week.

Black boxing dude waxing the white Russian in chess is a pretty badass flex, actually.

I was wondering.

By the way, you were right on "Point Break" when you said it looked more like Oregon than Australia.

Duke with a legit really good scene here.

Insane people, but I see it happen all the time.

In my head, Stallone just got tired of writing the movie and just started writing:

Nice cameo by David Crosby as a Russian villager.

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:21 pm

And whatever you want to say about Drago he did not half-ass his training.

duff · Post by **duff** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:21 pm

I do like Rocky's coat.

Yeah, people thing that's what your supposed do and there's merit too it. You really cant get i gooey all the way through unless you torch the outside.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:21 pm

I love how Adrian's arrival gets portrayed as the big difference in his training, but it's not like's dogging it or having issues before she shows.

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:22 pm

(You see, we're going to juxtapose Rocky training with old school American grit against the Russian doing it with bullshit technology is the most Reagan 80s thing ever.)

Way too nice for working out in.

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:23 pm

And ironic when you consider the American technology gap in the 70s and 80s is what really won the Cold War.

duff · Post by **duff** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:23 pm

Dumb shit should have caught a cold running through that creek and keep on running through the snow.

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:23 pm

Disappointed in the lack of "In Russia, (noun) (verb)s you!" jokes so far. Including from myself.

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:24 pm

Adrian, that's all you had to say from the beginning!

Now Rocky's really fuckin' serious about working out, bros.

Jerloma · Post by **Jerloma** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:24 pm

Remember when we hated Russians?

duff · Post by **duff** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:24 pm

We should all have spot lights on us while running on an
indoor track.

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:24 pm

Rocky's quarantine beard is on point. He should have kept it for the fight.

When? They helped get trump elected.

Johnny Carwash · Post by **Johnny Carwash** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:25 pm

So "Adrian" is definitely a KGB agent who got plastic surgery to look like her?

Agreed.

OH, IT'S ON MOHERFUCKERS! BREAK OUT THE JUMPROPE, LEOTARDS, AND TANK TOP!!!!

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:26 pm

They really were on the nose with the whole Russian bloc doping stuff though. I'm not sure if that was a completely known thing in 1985, though probably it was at least assumed.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:26 pm

THE RUSSIAN IS CHEATING, GUYS!!!!!!!!!

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:27 pm

Climbing a mountain as an f-you to your KGB followers could have totally cost him an injury before the fight though. Dumb.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:28 pm

How many dudes in theaters had erections when Rocky got to the mountain top?

Post by **brian** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:28 pm

So the mountain in my backyard is legit like that one with a narrow slope on the top you can hike up, but it's easy to fall off either side. Freaky.

rass · Post by **rass** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:28 pm

How many pages did we spend talking about how awesome Duke is? Cause he’s the best.

DSafetyGuy · Post by **DSafetyGuy** » Thu May 07, 2020 9:28 pm

Al Bandero looks like the brother of the color guy in "Major League".

I got mine when he was doing the leg raises with his shirt off.
