"It's the name man... The Italian Stallion. The media will eat it up. Now, who discovered America? An Italian, right. What would be better than to get it on with one of its descendents?"
Welcome back to another street toughing, knuckle smashing, underdog cheering, All American episode of THE FILM SNARKS!!!
Have you ever been given an opportunity of a lifetime you maybe felt undeserving of?
Have you ever found yourself with all the odds stacked against but found the will to rise above and succeed anyway?
Well that's certainly the case with cinema's most celebrated underdog, The Italian Stallion himself, Rocky Balboa, as we take you back to the mean streets of Philadelphia in the 1970s where it all began in honor of the brand new Director's Cut of Rocky IV!!
And because it's almost Thanksgiving, come join us as we lace up our gloves, defy the odds, and make something of ourselves as we find out if Rocky (1976) is outdated cinema, or if it's still a fist-pumping triumphant masterpiece of filmmaking that defies the odds and goes the distance!!
"He doesn't know it's a damn show, he thinks it's a damn fight!"
