In the walkout song in the end it mentions wakanda but the mcu can’t exist in creed universe because Adonis plays the biggest character in wakanda it don’t make sense the producers didn’t notice but it’s a big thing for fans who notice everything like me does the mcu exist in creed it can’t
The scene with viktor drago was simply AMAZING and it showed Adonis fully adopted the will of fire and pure determination of rocky aswell as the reflexes and ability of his pops
@@DivinePearl he used Viktor because of his punishing fighting style. He needed to go back to hell and Drago was the only sparring partner who could help.
@@brandonnoel432 I guess, but they didn't even talk. And there was this weird flashback sequence that came out of nowhere. Looked like the 2nd and 3rd act had a lot cut out IMO.
I loved Dame in this. I was VERY invested in him. He actually became my favorite character. I felt he had the right to be hurt and I feel Adonis didn’t do enough to really make things right. It still felt like so much separatism between them. I hope we see more of Dame in future creed films.
Dame just became my favourite character in this movie from the moment he spoke his first line. What great acting! He immediately got all my sympathies as a movie character. His sad life story and dark past are also a factor. I wouldn't have minded at all if he won in the end. In general I think he is the better fighter.
I agree but if we’re being honest it’s obviously Adonis as the better fighter. Dame spent all his free time studying Adonis’s moves in all of his fights. Dame also used illegal moves and fought dirty to win, while Adonis never fought dirty and won heavy weight champion 26-1 not once but twice?
I still don't think Adonis really got why Dame was heartbroken by him. At the end of the movie Dame says go to your family and friends. They're waiting. Adonis says if you need me you know where to find me. He should have said you are my family and took him along. Instead of leaving him behind. Yet again. #TEAMDAME
The whole point is that they don't owe eachother anything. The beggining of the movie, Adonis feels a responsibility to help dame out of guilt. At the end, he moves on from that guilt. Adonis doesn't owe anything to dame, dame don't owe nothing to Adonis.
@@jeremydupas exactly it’s a story of survivors guilt from their circumstances and that balance of what do you owe, do you actually owe and who comes with you on your journey. Which was presented beautifully by his mother when she stated yes I kept the letters from you to which Adonis replied and all of this happened and she responded yes all of it. Including his success
@@jeremydupasnah cause this spot on, I'm sure that that was an alternate ending but it wouldn't have made sense because the whole point of the fight was for them to move on from it hence the "we were just kids bro"
The fight between Adonis and Damian in the ring with no one around. With only the two in the void is a reference to a fight sequence in Naruto Shippuden between Kakashi and Obito. Former friends and team mate airing out their history and past grievances. Locked in a fight to the death in the Kamui dimension.
And i really like how both fighters were in their zone not caring about the crowd or money. But just using the only language both could understand! I really love Rocky movies or fight movies in general they tell so much with each fight without needing dialogue ARGHHHH.
@@froshtea Adonis and Damian even did their own version of the unison sign in the locker room after the fight. A sign to show your respect and good sportsmanship. Much like in Naruto when they are training/sparring in hand-to-hand combat. Same, I’ve always been a huge fan of fight movies.
The first encounter between Adonis and Damian (diner scene) was magnificent. So much going on there! I loved how Damian gorged on the food and threw in extra spice: he wants it all!
That fight between Donnie and Diamond at the end was a lil personal for me I envisioned myself fighting myself Donnie representing what I can become if I rise above my emotions and anger but Diamond represents the fury, anger and emotions I feel towards the people I feel failed me great film amazing scene
I felt dame had a better control of his emotions. I wouldn’t describe dame as angry I feel like that disregards his experience I would say he is more somber and hardened. But its also art and people can take whatever they want from it so🤷🏾♂️
@@elijahhutchings7947 he went to jail for something his friend had done on top of that his friend he looked up to him is living the life he wanted for himself Dame had every right to be angry what are you talking about lol
Honestly they are all 2 small MBJ is 190ish Majors says he is 202 Felix is a 154 boxer Heavyweight boxing min is 200 so Majors is barely in there lol Drago is the only true heavyweight at 245 that's y he looks so huge.
As a diehard boxing fan. This was a problem for me too. Jose Benavidez just lost to Danny Garcia at 154. He looked nothing like a heavyweight. His brother David might have been good but it still threw me off. Dame vs Adonis looked like 168 lb fight. Imagine either fighting Wilder or Fury lol.
The only thing I think the film failed on was making me feel more empathy with Damien. Since reviewers and critics were saying that you don’t know who to root for in the end, I was hoping to really feel empathy and sympathy with Damien to the point that I’d root for him but I didn’t. And it’s because I think that wasn’t fully developed. I’ll explain why: 1) they could’ve read us one of Damien’s letters to Donnie, letting us know how he was alone, struggling and really needed him to be there for him in spirit, comfort, and plainly just having a real friend to talk to and help you through this tough moment. As the letters go by and Donnie never answers he grows angry and resentful. Showing the transition from friend to enemy. That was a missed opportunity. 2) they could’ve shown a scene or two of Damien in prison and just show us how difficult he had it there, if he was abused, beaten up or hell even raped. Something to show us that he was in fact alone and it wasn’t easy for him. Then maybe show us how he kept himself in shape in prison, if he fought in prison fights and learned how to fight dirty. How he met his friends there and then one of them does him that favor (break Dragos hand so he could have the title shot) 3) there’s a scene in the trailer where Creed visits the prison yet it’s not there in the film, so hopefully it shows up on dvd as a deleted scene. But that could add to what Damien had to go through alone. All this would’ve helped to give Damien more background and make us feel more empathy as to why his actions are justified. Because he really felt like Donnie abandoned him and that led to hate, jealousy and resentment
@@jahcal777 it’s the only thing I felt it lacked as well as the last fight. I felt like it had to be longer. They just show the first 2 rounds and then enter a metaphor stage of it’s just the 2 of them in there and all of a sudden it’s the 12th round. I think the last fight needed to be longer and we needed to see how truly great Damien was. Other than that I think the film was great. Have seen it twice now and I may see it a third. P.S. the intro monologue he makes in the trailer is not in the movie either nor the clips shown in the trailer. So the movie is missing a couple of scenes that I had hoped to see in the theater. There’s no mention of Rocky or anything.
Brilliant franchise. I loved the 'baby creed' detail: one of the reasons why Dame is such a powerful antagonist is his personal relationship with Adonis, he knows him better than anyone.
In the beginning of the film, a Perfect Grade Gundam Astray Red Frame model kit is seen in young Adonis' bedroom. This is an anachronistic error, as the scene takes place in 2002 and that kit wasn't released until 2009.
Johnathon majors should play mike Tyson in a bio pic he kids favors mike a lil in the face, he got that face like he wants to hurt you and enjoys it like a young Mike
Didn't Adonis say 'one step, one punch, one round at a time' right before his fight with Dame? thought it was a nice was to show me remembered Rocky's teachings as well
I find it interesting how there are cuts from the trailer in this video that aren’t there in the movie, especially the one where they’re in the visiting center of a jail
You mentioned two anime titles but it obviously took some inspiration from Hajime no ippo with the Dempsey roll, which is obviously overlooked in the video😏
In the opening scene scene Adonis has a poster of Naruto Shippuden in his room even tho it was supposed to be 2002 when the original Naruo Series began airing and Shippuden wasn’t aired until 2009
Adonis Creed is clearly inspired by Oscar Dela Hoya. Dela Hoya became a successful multiple weight class champion and producer. In the movie, Adonis taps Viktor Drago to help him prepare for his fight with Damien. When preparing for Floyd Mayweather, Oscar tapped Shane Moseley as his sparring partner. Shane beat Oscar twice, and he realized that to prepare for an undefeated P4P king Floyd, he needed someone who knew his weaknesses the most Damien has several inspirations, but the one I can think comes close is Bernard Hopkins. Bernard was also an Ex-con. The older Bernard got, the dirtier he fought. Not to take anything away from Bernard, as he took on younger opposition even in his 40s, but if you watched those fight, he always used dirty tactics
@@TheMainRyan happens when they expand the cinematic universe, if Apollo was the most feared why did Joe Fraizer accuse him of ducking ? Plus Mike Tyson was disrespectful to Mason Dixon, so what Rocky fighter would have fought him ?
I was telling my brother that if he noticed when Donnie made his way into the ring he did it in such a spectacle like his father Apollo used to it in his fight finally embracing his fathers charisma and which the whole crowd was cheering for him
It would have been good at the end when Dame said “looks like you did learn some moves”. Creed would have said something like “I had a good mentor” to at least give Rocky a shoutout.
Crazy that I’m the first creed movie when Rocky and Adonis are looking over Conlans film they mention that he’s “ doing the same thing “ and in Creed 3 he continues to do the same thing
Donnie gives Dame the Rumble In The Jungle ticket from his dad. However, correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t Adonis find out Apollo was his dad as an adult
They just got out of the foster home. His new mother had taken him in. That’s where he was breaking out of. At that point he must have just recently found out Apollo was his dad.
Donnie confronted Dame because he had been given a picture by his mom, showing Dame in a picture in prison with the guy who attacked Drago at the music party., D said "you been playing me" - because he figured out why they set up Drago and attacked him.
@@jayb8934 i missed it. I just watched the movie and was looking all over for someone explaining who that was. From the short glimpse I thought they were in military uniforms not penitentiary ones. I was confused why they didn't talk about him lying about just getting out and he enlisted with a felony. good movie
@@godawgs123 you may have missed it, but it wasn’t hidden. It’s how Mrs. Creed revealed to Donnie that Dame had been playing him and was behind the attack on Drago that led to him getting his title shot.
@@jayb8934 right but they didnt verbalize it did they? they assumed you would put two and two together seeing the picture? i didnt recognize the man of first glance and there was no rewind. I mean really this is just a memory and comprehension issue for me but i figure theres a decent amount of people just a dumb haha.
@@godawgs123 that’s a fair point. It wasn’t explicitly stated. My point is just that it wasn’t a hidden detail either. While some people might have missed it, the audience was supposed to notice it. I think it’s a good thing when movies and shows don’t spell out everything, as long as it’s not too obscure.
I highly believe his mother raised him to forget where he came from. This was all HER fault. He was a troubled, scared minor at the time. What she viewed as protection, made him abandoned Dame, when he had his back even when he was raised in a toxic home with jealous siblings who mistreated him. Even at the end of the movie, Donnie still didn’t apologies, not thanksgiving him for protecting him, and risking his life and future just for him to be able to escape while he got arrested. Dame deserved better.
QUESTION: Why did Adonis refuse to go see his friend Damian in jail? I never got that. Adonis' mother hid the letters from him, but he obvioulsy knew he was imprisoned.
Creed vs dame Was a reference to kakashi vs obito when it was just them with no crowd. It also had some naruto dbz and ippo references in the fight Naruto shippuden poster There’s some other ones like like how creed and dame were viewed in the light and dark etc
i thought would have been cool to see creed vs creed so when his mom died apollo's other son showing up and they go at it but the old friend concept was cool too
It appears that if they move forward on the creed movies the focus would be his daughter when she comes of age. Not showing his siblings was a missed opportunity but what if one of his siblings has a daughter that also becomes a boxer and their parent passes on their animosity for Adonis to the child and the child hates Adonis daughter leading to a rivalry in boxing
Yes the double punch was actually dbz not naruto it was from vegeta and gokus ssj2 fight along with the gut punches. They also nodded to other animes like Hajime no ippo in the opening scene.
How you gonna mention the Naruto influence and NOT mention how that entire scene where the 2 fighters transport into a seemingly different grey void realm where only the 2 of them exist is a direct reference to Naruto and Sasuke’s battle where that same thing happens both times?
Pretty good movie but I don’t like how Rocky and Apollo were not really mentioned at all and I wasn’t a big fan of the way the last fight was shot. I understand why they did that but I don’t think it worked like they thought it would
my favorite part was in the end where the Creed family roll around, laying down in the ring after the fight... there's blood, sweat, spit, maybe piss and all kinds of nasty smells from every fighter that night... yet they didn't seem bothered by it.
This movie had me on Dame's side until he used his sketchy ways to trick Adonis - at that point he was written 180 - until the last couple of scenes. Like Dame did nothing wrong all he did was protect Adonis - like Adonis mightve gotten killed had Dame not intervened by threatening everyone by waving the gun around. Also Dame went into jail for a REALLY LONG TIME for just threatening with a gun (even if it was unregistered/without license). Adonis forgot about him and let him suffer alone. His mom and Adonis trainer all assumed the worst about Dame - but he literally did nothing wrong smh. It had to be contrived for the narrative but I'm glad that the brotherhood got reestablished by the end.
It still bothers me that there's no mention of Rocky. Great great movie but if Apollos other kids get a mention we meed one for Rocky even if they can't by name for legal reasons, mention "him".
How about getting a title shot without having a single pro fight. Anybody catch that detail? Or, how about an antagonist who has done nothing wrong to be considered a bad guy. Or, how about them making a big deal over how old creed is, when the antagonist is like 5 years older than him. The plot of this movie is so siilly.
Dude its not that deep. Syvelster Stallone created Appollo creed and he didnt know decades later that there was gonna be a Creed movie. He didnt know he had to give insight and details bout his private family life. Stallone wrote the screenplay and didnt want or have time to go in depth about Apollos family. He didnt know decades later there was going to have to explain where Appollo's children are. You know why? Because in reality The Creed spinoff was never meant to happen. But it did Thank Ryan Coogler for that. Creeds personal life is brief and thats the way Sylvester wrote his character. WHY? because the movie is all about Rocky. All we knew about Apollo was he was from Los Angeles, he was a world champion, he had a wife and two kids and he was arrogant person. I dont recognize Creed as a part of the Rocky franchise. For me the Rocky saga ended at 4, not 5. There was no need for 5.
movie was ok. i dunno i just felt kinda bored. however i did love how they made up at the end after the fight. i loved the first creed alot but the last 2 just missed the mark for me. i know thats kind of a hot take
creed 3 should have been creed 5. There's way too much of a time jump between 2 and 3 that they kinda fucked up which means they're going to have to set creed 4's story between 2 and 5 as a prequel to 3
Were there any other interesting details you noticed?
I agree I said the same thing
The salary of Donnie
"One step. One punch. One round at a time."
In the walkout song in the end it mentions wakanda but the mcu can’t exist in creed universe because Adonis plays the biggest character in wakanda it don’t make sense the producers didn’t notice but it’s a big thing for fans who notice everything like me does the mcu exist in creed it can’t

Felt the same. I can understand his angry. But after their fight, I said I hope that helped him to release some of it
He too old like they were saying in the movie lol
yea no hero's in a rocky movie wonder why?
Creeds mom hiding those letters was the biggest part of it.
Not showing or mentioning Apollo Creed’s real kids at Mary Anne’s funeral was a missed opportunity
Stupid actually they shoulda had the two older children be seen at the funeral.
I’d Been saying the exact same thing
"Real kids". Lol
Adonis is his real child too
@@cornbreadmilton5265 actually same father different mother
There was a lot of potential, with Apollo's kids. Like showing how they treated him, emphasizing his strong relationship with Dame
They probably kept their distance and hardly interacted with him since they were already adults when Mary Anne took in Adonis.
@@Drifter1989 Nah Adonis made it clear they definitely tormented him

The only thing I think the film failed on was making me feel more empathy with Damien. Since reviewers and critics were saying that you don’t know who to root for in the end, I was hoping to really feel empathy and sympathy with Damien to the point that I’d root for him but I didn’t.

As the letters go by and Donnie never answers he grows angry and resentful. Showing the transition from friend to enemy. That was a missed opportunity.
2) they could’ve shown a scene or two of Damien in prison and just show us how difficult he had it there, if he was abused, beaten up or hell even raped. Something to show us that he was in fact alone and it wasn’t easy for him. Then maybe show us how he kept himself in shape in prison, if he fought in prison fights and learned how to fight dirty. How he met his friends there and then one of them does him that favor (break Dragos hand so he could have the title shot)
3) there’s a scene in the trailer where Creed visits the prison yet it’s not there in the film, so hopefully it shows up on dvd as a deleted scene. But that could add to what Damien had to go through alone.
All this would’ve helped to give Damien more background and make us feel more empathy as to why his actions are justified. Because he really felt like Donnie abandoned him and that led to hate, jealousy and resentment

@@Deity_devil Yeah Rocky IV
Ur dum
Dame is the best thing about the creed franchise
Great great video!!
Donnie gives Dame the Rumble In The Jungle ticket from his dad. However, correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t Adonis find out Apollo was his dad as an adult
He finds out in the beginning of Creed 1, when he is getting picked up by Mary Ann from Juvie for the first time.
They just got out of the foster home. His new mother had taken him in. That’s where he was breaking out of. At that point he must have just recently found out Apollo was his dad.
The double punch was straight Anime vibes 🗿🗿
I loved the movie
before he faught dame when he was saying “one punch one step one round at a time” i got hype
Didn’t miss anything.just passed on all of it . Team Stallone
245 Million in 4 weeks without SS . Creed 3 made more then 1 and 2 Without Sylvester
Donnie confronted Dame because he had been given a picture by his mom, showing Dame in a picture in prison with the guy who attacked Drago at the music party., D said "you been playing me" - because he figured out why they set up Drago and attacked him.
I don't think that was a hidden detail that people missed. It was sort of an integral part of the plot. lol.
@@jayb8934 i missed it. I just watched the movie and was looking all over for someone explaining who that was. From the short glimpse I thought they were in military uniforms not penitentiary ones. I was confused why they didn't talk about him lying about just getting out and he enlisted with a felony. good movie
@@godawgs123 you may have missed it, but it wasn’t hidden. It’s how Mrs. Creed revealed to Donnie that Dame had been playing him and was behind the attack on Drago that led to him getting his title shot.
@@jayb8934 right but they didnt verbalize it did they? they assumed you would put two and two together seeing the picture? i didnt recognize the man of first glance and there was no rewind. I mean really this is just a memory and comprehension issue for me but i figure theres a decent amount of people just a dumb haha.
@@godawgs123 that’s a fair point. It wasn’t explicitly stated. My point is just that it wasn’t a hidden detail either. While some people might have missed it, the audience was supposed to notice it. I think it’s a good thing when movies and shows don’t spell out everything, as long as it’s not too obscure.
Yall missed Donny's homage to Rocky during the warm up scene to the Battle for LA, when he repeats '1 step, 1 round, 1 punch at a time' ...
I highly believe his mother raised him to forget where he came from. This was all HER fault. He was a troubled, scared minor at the time. What she viewed as protection, made him abandoned Dame, when he had his back even when he was raised in a toxic home with jealous siblings who mistreated him. Even at the end of the movie, Donnie still didn’t apologies, not thanksgiving him for protecting him, and risking his life and future just for him to be able to escape while he got arrested. Dame deserved better.
QUESTION: Why did Adonis refuse to go see his friend Damian in jail? I never got that. Adonis' mother hid the letters from him, but he obvioulsy knew he was imprisoned.
Great job bro
Idk why but the Scene when Dame got his teeth knocked out made me feel sorry for him and I found myself rooting for him throughout the movie.
The Mike Tyson reference with Dame Anderson
Creed vs dame Was a reference to kakashi vs obito when it was just them with no crowd. It also had some naruto dbz and ippo references in the fight
Naruto shippuden poster
There’s some other ones like like how creed and dame were viewed in the light and dark etc
You forgot when Donnie said the “one step one punch one round at a time” mantra that rocky used to say to him
In real life, though wouldn’t Rocky show up at the funeral for Marianne?
Not if he didn't know about it.
That’s true. In the original creed Adonis mentioned that Rocky hasn’t spoken to Marianne since Apollo’s funeral
You all forgot the Demspey Roll from Hajime No Ippo that Dame hit Adonis with.
Heavyweights?? Jordan looks like a super middle weight at best
The dual punch was a nod to the Dragonball Z fight between Goku and Majin Vegeta. The Naruto dual punch came a decade after that.
I actually pressed on this thinking it was Assasins Creed 3
They need to show the other kids
I thought the mountain climb was a nod to rocky 4 when he screamed like rocky screamed drago’s name
The cross punch was definitely dbz . Goku vs vegeta . But naruto is understandable as well because they’re the same meaning
I feel like the siblings will finally make an appearance in Creed 4.
Does anyone else feel Dame should of went on a run and went like three and 0 before the Adonis fight??? But up that fear like mr. T
“Small Details You Missed in Creed 3” wastes time recapping the entire series
Surprised he didn't choose to choreograph the final fight like Kakashi and Obito fight since naruto inspired him so much
cant miss details in shot you haven't seen yet 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wanted to see a Donna’s Creed lose that would’ve set up for an amazing Creed for promo come back movie
i thought would have been cool to see creed vs creed so when his mom died apollo's other son showing up and they go at it but the old friend concept was cool too
It appears that if they move forward on the creed movies the focus would be his daughter when she comes of age. Not showing his siblings was a missed opportunity but what if one of his siblings has a daughter that also becomes a boxer and their parent passes on their animosity for Adonis to the child and the child hates Adonis daughter leading to a rivalry in boxing
Yes the double punch was actually dbz not naruto it was from vegeta and gokus ssj2 fight along with the gut punches. They also nodded to other animes like Hajime no ippo in the opening scene.
Could’ve easily made this a two part movie if they wanted to worry abt plot💯 good movie none the less
Where are we in 95th oaklawn White castles and we need more casinos
there is a theory that Rocky told Adonis that Apollo won in the 3rd fight because Adonis is Apollo's son
How you gonna mention the Naruto influence and NOT mention how that entire scene where the 2 fighters transport into a seemingly different grey void realm where only the 2 of them exist is a direct reference to Naruto and Sasuke’s battle where that same thing happens both times?
Pretty good movie but I don’t like how Rocky and Apollo were not really mentioned at all and I wasn’t a big fan of the way the last fight was shot. I understand why they did that but I don’t think it worked like they thought it would
Amazing work guys
my favorite part was in the end where the Creed family roll around, laying down in the ring after the fight... there's blood, sweat, spit, maybe piss and all kinds of nasty smells from every fighter that night... yet they didn't seem bothered by it.
This movie had me on Dame's side until he used his sketchy ways to trick Adonis - at that point he was written 180 - until the last couple of scenes. Like Dame did nothing wrong all he did was protect Adonis - like Adonis mightve gotten killed had Dame not intervened by threatening everyone by waving the gun around. Also Dame went into jail for a REALLY LONG TIME for just threatening with a gun (even if it was unregistered/without license). Adonis forgot about him and let him suffer alone. His mom and Adonis trainer all assumed the worst about Dame - but he literally did nothing wrong smh. It had to be contrived for the narrative but I'm glad that the brotherhood got reestablished by the end.
The final fight in the void is in naruto as well. Its kakashi vs Obito
It still bothers me that there's no mention of Rocky. Great great movie but if Apollos other kids get a mention we meed one for Rocky even if they can't by name for legal reasons, mention "him".
Cpulda swore the “underground fight ring” was just golden gloves💀
No they were separate lol
How about getting a title shot without having a single pro fight. Anybody catch that detail? Or, how about an antagonist who has done nothing wrong to be considered a bad guy. Or, how about them making a big deal over how old creed is, when the antagonist is like 5 years older than him. The plot of this movie is so siilly.
I wish they told us why those kids don't talk to the Mom and did the original actress die. It seems like it but it's unclear on the internet.
Dude its not that deep. Syvelster Stallone created Appollo creed and he didnt know decades later that there was gonna be a Creed movie. He didnt know he had to give insight and details bout his private family life. Stallone wrote the screenplay and didnt want or have time to go in depth about Apollos family. He didnt know decades later there was going to have to explain where Appollo's children are. You know why? Because in reality The Creed spinoff was never meant to happen. But it did Thank Ryan Coogler for that. Creeds personal life is brief and thats the way Sylvester wrote his character. WHY? because the movie is all about Rocky. All we knew about Apollo was he was from Los Angeles, he was a world champion, he had a wife and two kids and he was arrogant person. I dont recognize Creed as a part of the Rocky franchise. For me the Rocky saga ended at 4, not 5. There was no need for 5.
The only one who was responsible for everything was the stupid ass mom for not showing Adonis the letters Damien wrote
Still no way a guy with one fight lasts a round with the champion. Great film tho.
"The rumble in the jungle" ?!
all you did was retell the movie. I missed none of this!
The Kids were in 4
Or maybe that's just the directors cut
Where’s Clubber Lang’s son!?
that guy is always making that face with his lips like that
I saw no problem with his friend being the champion. Creed was happy with having the money and wasn't even interesting in boxing himself anymore.
i thought WOOD HARRIS WAS APOLLO SON
movie was ok. i dunno i just felt kinda bored. however i did love how they made up at the end after the fight. i loved the first creed alot but the last 2 just missed the mark for me. i know thats kind of a hot take
Dragos son was not a bad guy it made sense they became friends and got over the father's sins
creed 3 should have been creed 5. There's way too much of a time jump between 2 and 3 that they kinda fucked up which means they're going to have to set creed 4's story between 2 and 5 as a prequel to 3
