Rocky VI

Hey Everyone,

UGH! What the hell is wrong with people? More to the point, what is wrong with Sylvester Stallone? The Associated Press is reporting that Rambo has just signed a deal to make Rocky VI. The horror.

Apparently, in the film, set to begin filming next year in Philadelphia and Las Vegas, Stallone makes a comeback (another one) as Rocky.

It appears that Stallone, and the filmmaking geniuses at MGM, decided that a logical plot line would be for a 59 year old boxer, who has been retired for 15 years, to make a comeback "for the competition, not to win".

These people need to learn that the past is just that, and you can never go back. Let it go, don't ruin the movies we love anymore than you already have. Sure, it may be your movie, but when you make it and put it in theaters, it becomes our movie too, and you don't have the right to tarnish its prestige and mystique by trying to extend it past its natural life. The Rocky series is over and there is nothing left to add. Accept it.

P.S. I've never been a Rambo fan, but Stallone has signed on to make Rambo IV too. He should just retire or come up with some new ideas.
