      Rob Bates his face was too big and boxy and his body and acting was stiff too. remember in cobra Stallone looks at his render and says, ‘that’s a good looking guy’ . I thought so too in terminator. very rough and aggressive looking. but I guess he gained weight. he had a bit role as a sidekick in jcvd movie lionheart aka awol . couldn’t see his neck and acting was very ordinary too.

    One thing you did miss is the song from Karate Kid "You're the Best." was supposed to be used in this movie. Also, interesting facts about the deleted scenes, sometime Cobra shown on TV would have deleted scenes such as the Night Slasher working a job at a slaughterhouse it seems. And him practicing with his knife as another scene showed.

      My dad took me to see this.We both went in thinking it was just another goofy action flick of the time. Minty's right, it's more of a slasher film. I didn't have nightmares but 'till then, Temple of Doom was the scariest thing I'd ever seen. Y'know, before the internet, you really didn't know much about a movie until it came out.

    • @bleep77
      @bleep77 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Stallone has a big ego. Only taking on projects when he was guaranteed creative control, which meant that he was allowed to make rewrites to the script and consequently adding his name as screenwriter on the movie. This explains why he turned or was turned down from some classic movies such Beverly Hills Cop and Romancing the Stone. It also explains why many big directors like Scorsese, Speilberg, Coppolla steered clear of wanting to work with him. The times when he would only take part in a project and allow the creative minds behind it do their thing is where he delivered excellent performances: for example, Cop Land and Creed.
