    Creed (film) - Rocky follow up

    ...let the chicken chasing commence...

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I really hope this lives up to expectations. Rocky Balboa was excellent and left Rocky (and his world) on a high note, so I dearly hope "Creed" doesn't do that a disservice.

    So now Rocky's also lost Paulie, eh? More rough times for the old bruiser. Hopefully the hospitilisation angle doesn't outstay its welcome ... I don't want to see Rocky crumble and wither ... the sixth movie was a wonderful way to leave the character, so fingers crossed this new flick doesn't do any damage to the franchise. However, it looks good from the trailer and I look forward to seeing it.

    There's a cheery thought. But then the world would have been denied the gifts that were Rocky III & IV, & the talents of Mr. T & Dolph Lundgren!

    Trailer for Creed II:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSsaejaFNa8

    I find that song to be completely annoying, but the film looks good! It’s kind of silly that they’re holding back the reveal of Drago as if he’s some kind of big, classic character. Film fanatics know him well, but I wouldn’t think he’s that big of a deal to the general audience?

    I've still not seen Creed, but I've heard so many good things about it. Surely it should turn up on TV soon by now?! (Especially with the sequel coming soon).

    Not sure about cable, but I’ve seen it for free on Amazon Prime, if you have it.

    Yeah, finally caught it on ITV2 a couple of months back. Good flick.

    This whole 'Son of Drago vs Son of Creed' angle has me very interested, and that glance from Ivan to Rocky ... chilling.

    Hopefully the new director can keep up the quality, but with a story/script from Sly (co-wrote the script anyway), I'm hopeful.
