"I saw you beat that man like you never beat no man before. And the man kept comin' after you! Now we don't need that kind of man in our lives."
You go, Duke!

Looks like Rocky getting ready to open the rusty gates and work through blood,sweat n tears...
We are going to remember this torturous build up to opening day as one of the best parts of the Rocky Balboa experience.
Peace,

The Rock has to go out on top.....Like te Miracle movie, America is ready for this.
Considering that this is the definitive resolution to the series, it should offer a curtain call with all of the characters from the five films.
While it's great to see Duke, we should also see his past opponents, Father Carmine, George Washington Duke, even if only briefly.
I get the sense that this won't happen, but it would be great to get their reaction to Rocky returning to the ring after such a long absence.
Duke sucks.
Go out a winner Rock! Redeem yourself....
I LOVE DUKE !!!!!!!!
Didn't Duke say "Sparring is out" in the trailer? -:) BTW after 3 horrible movies, Sly is back with something that comes straight from his heart.
Belle photo.
Ca me fait tres plaisir de revoir Duke,avec un role vraiment important cette fois.
Ca m'avait fait de la peine,de pas le voir dans le 5...a part au debut.
Thanks a lot Craig!!! :p
Another sweet pic! Thanks Craig!
rocky est de retour pour le plus grand bonheur de tous ses fans et particulièrement les français qui sont de plus en plus nombreux et jeunes.la France est avec toi,sly et pour toujours.
"I see three of him out there!"
"Hit the one in the middle!"
"YEAH! HIT THE ONE IN THE MIDDLE!"
Rocky is going OT for this fight! 8-)
Tony Burton has ALWAYS been the key to belivablity and reality in the ROCKY series.
There were a few moments i had chills because of Sly speaking, directing, and in action. One vibe i'll never forget, is Tony in "Duke" mode, screaming ringside at ROCKY. I THINK that he's going to have more to do with this installment, than in the entire series. And i KNOW that if he WAS NOT in this installment, i would be 50% less interested. THANX SLY 4 BRINGING HIM BACK. If they use the takes i seen on the set, Mr. Burton is going to surprise alot of people. Just LOOK AT HIM in the AWESOME trailer. "BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA".-=christopher
So glad Tony Duke is in Rocky Balboa! He brings a lot of feeling to the series. Cool photo.
"Now you're going to have to go through hell. Worse than any nightmare that you've ever seen. But, in the end, I know you'll be the one standing. You know what you have to do. Do it. Do it."
duke is great.
Very good. But brick not hit back!!
hahahaha the last comment it's from the van damme's movie Bloodsport. who is the guy with Duke?
He's not a man, he's a machine. Go Rocky. Lets kick some ass.
Great to see old Duke back..."let`s start building some hurting bombs"...Yeah,I like it!!!

Bridget said... Great picture! Love that Tony Duke. He will bring a lot of heart to this movie, and I am happy he's in it. Let's start buildin some hurtin bombs!!!!!
Craig: Well said Bridget!
Slash said... Thank God he's back! Rocky's the kinda man I strive to be. Even when he was a 'two bit leg breaker for some second rate loan shark', the man had integrity. In my book - he's the greatest character ever to come out of cinema!
Craig: Well said!
I'm not quite sure about this film. the first 3 were the best, the second one was the best of the best.
with 4 and 5, i think they stretched it.
it's pretty crazy though, did you know that in rocky V, rocky was sapposed to die in the streetfight?
sylvester did a last-minute changed to the storyline because he didnt want the cult fellowship to die.
o tell you the truth rocky balboa should stick to training other boxers.
"You've got one more round, now get up! you sunofagun, MICKEY LOVES YA!"
I like Duke's trailer phrase. Makes me want to develop some "hurtin' bombs!"
Don't know how well that will work around the office, though...look out watercoolers!
rock sylvester you are my favorite idal you are my hero i have been boxing for a while trying to get into the contender but rock kick his ass
I've been watching the Rocky movies for years. I honestly don't think I would have been an all american football player and had much of my success if I had not tried to mirror my mental and physical toughness after Rocky. He's a true inspiration and role model as well!!!!!!! One more round!!
The wait is ending, the emotion is going increasing and Rocky Balboa, the best, the legend, it is returning to the movies!
Edmundo, fan of Rocky Balboa of Brazil!!!
Sono una fans di rocky balboa dal primo momento che l ho visto, sono contenta che ritorna al cinema, sono sicura che farà rivivere a tutti delle emozioni forti.
ci sono tante cose che vorrei poter dire a rocky che è il mio mito... ti faccio un grosso saluto!
ti vogliamo bene...
Viviana
yo duke train this man show him the run to the victory
NO PAIN, NO PAIN, NO PAIN LETS SEE SOME HURTIN BOMS
MICKY LOVES YA
AND SO DO I
Rocky is a real hero in the world
you're right Holls Sly
so do I
Its looking good and using a light heavy weight for the film makes sly look bigger just for the hurt'n pound effect is a smart move glad to see duke back go rock " Your the one all yor power all your love"
This is what America needs right now just in time for christmas thank you Sly
I just hope in the end,rocky beats the SHlT out of this pug...lol
whats next rambo
I was one of your big fan in my country but I think that we do not need another Rocky in this word !! we have enough of Rocky and Rambo....in any way good luck men...
