Rocky

     The 'Rocky' series of films are among some of my favorite movies of all time.  There are six films total in the series, Rocky 1 - 5, and Rocky Balboa.  All of the films center around Rocky Balboa, a small time boxer who is given a shot at the title but, they are really so much more than that.  They also tell a beautiful love story of Rocky and his wife Adrian, they have great stories of deep friendships, and ultimately they all show you the importance of love, and that with enough heart, desire, and will anything is possible in life.  These movies always inspire me, and make me feel good any time I watch them.

    I always thought they work well as an arc.

    Stallone looked so handsome even when bruised.

    The famous Rocky series is always a classic. Right now I can just hear Rocky shouting - ADRIAN, ADRIAN - from the ring. And her brother always gives me a good laugh.

    I've only ever seen the first two. Maybe I should seek out the rest....

    I'm returning your visit and thought I'd put the answer to your question "What is postcrossing" here in your comments. Look at my A post: http://marciespostbox.blogspot.co.at/2013/04/a-as-in-anfang-z-challenge.html

    Btw I especially love the Rocky music theme.

    ultimate hope movies!
    i also liked your needful things & pulp fiction choices, not for the "ordinary!" but jarring and full of the unexpected.

    happy a to z!

    A good series, and everyone at the time was singing Eye of the Tiger. ADRIAN!

      Four is a good one. I hate when the video stores collection is incomplete.
