  • Carl Weathers gave life to one of the most iconic characters in cinema with his portrayal of Apollo Creed. Throughout the Rocky series he expands on the character and evolves him from a simple antagonist into a fan favorite. Today we’re talking about how he does just that.

      I had seen parts of different Rocky movies growing up but the first Creed trailer was so good, I had to binge the whole series leading up to the movie. This franchise is so good!

    In Creed the results of the third figjt between Rocky and Apollo is revealed when Rocky admits to Adonis that Apollo won it

  • @CrazyHorseTheSiouxW4rrior

    15:24 even Rocky himself told Apollo that he's making the same mistakes like he did with rocky overlooking Drago that he doesn't know anything about and Apollo still didn't listen to him because Apollo viewed the fight as international fight between America vs Russia even though the fight was just a exhibition match he didn't take Drago serious it was just a show for him and that was his downfall

    • @ActFourMedia
      @ActFourMedia  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most character arcs have them learning from their mistakes, so I really appreciate they chose to go this route with Apollo. It makes him believable in my opinion

    They used to go 15 rounds. Ali vs Frazier.

      Actually in first movie Rock knocks him down for more than 10sec. In First Round
      The Ref kept moving Rock then count again so he stops counting twice
      Second fight RockY loses 5 times before 15th round. In 15th Rock is saved two times by the ropes and corner bar. Massively Lucky in second fight

      @dannydamone9354 you should start a movement, see if it gains any momentum. I suggest writing to the fake Hollywood boxing commission.

    They really screwed up Apollo Creed in Rocky 4, I don’t know why they had to make him such a joke and lose so easily against Drago. Rocky got all the glory in Rocky 4, while Apollo got absolutely nothing. Such horrible writing.
