Sylvester Stallone is signing on to reprise his role as boxer Rocky Balboa in the sixth installment of the long-running film series, which he wrote and will direct.
The film, titled “Rocky Balboa,” will be co-produced and co-financed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Columbia Pictures and Revolution Studios and will be distributed by Columbia Pictures.
In the new installment, Rocky, lonely and retired in Philadelphia, comes out of retirement, intending to fight a few low-profile local fights. He’s approached to fight a match with reigning heavyweight champ Mason “The Line” Dixon, and soon his comeback ignites a media firestorm.
Some people just don’t know when to stop and say “That’s enough!”
For God’s sake, Rocky 5 was a big mistake already, isn’t that a good enough sign that this series should end?
Plus didn’t Rocky find out he was getting brain damaged or something, making him retire? How come now he can come out of retirement and fight? Does brain damage fade away with time?
I can’t understand why some people insist on screwing up great movies with really shitty sequels.
Another bit of madness is that it seems Stallone also wants to do another Rambo movie. When he originally conceived the idea around 2002, the plot involved Rambo going into Afghanistan to battle terrorists. Very original!!
Doesn’t he realize that he’s too old for all this?!
To make things better, it’s rumoured that Arnold Schwarzenegger will act in yet another Terminator movie. As if the piece of shit, that was the third movie, wasn’t enough.
The Gov. of CA is going to be in another movie???
LoL!!! Great… I hope by the time they start filming, us, Californians, have already booted him out of office. Plus, there’s no way I’ll be happy with him trying to juggle both being a governor and starring in Terminator at the same time. He’s doing a bad enough job on CA without getting a second job. **sigh** I hate him.
Well, Arnold will also be acting in another sequel “True Lies 2”.
So, it seems he’ll be back to acting soon. Maybe his hopes aren’t that high about getting re-elected.

dude shut the fuck up, u have no idea if this movie is going to be bad or not and terminator 3 was not that bad. u just like to pretend to know about movies tell me have u ever scene casablanca or the searchers, or do u just like to bitch and moan about movies that are more recent
You get some “interesting” characters reading your blog sometimes, MMM.
I say, marc thompson should practice what he preaches and if he doesn’t like this entry he should “shut up” and move on to another website. Oh yeah… And “get a life”.
And matt, you cannot compare Casablanca and Rocky. I don’t know if you’re trying to imply that you’re more cultured than everyone else, but disliking Rocky does not mean that one only watches recent films nor that they have seen (not scene) and loved Casablanca. You’re making associations that have no business ever being associated together.
Point is, if you like the movie, GREAT! This must be quite exciting for you. If not, that’s fine too. You have every right to say so on your damn blog without having everyone gripe about your personal opinion.
Marc and matt have got to be about 13 years old. **rolls eyes** Like Casablanca makes you such a cultured person. Probably don’t even know what country it’s in without searching on the Internet.
It is about time they made a new Rocky film. I have attached 2 the films since i first saw them. I am very happy for sylvester Stallone plus i am attached 2 the Rambo films wat big mucles he has in that movie u can imagine wat his tinky winky is like (lol) HE IS SO CUTE !!!!!!
