    Rocky: "He's not a machine. He's a man. Just a man."
    Drago: "He's not a man. He's a piece of iron."


    Yeah, you know what I voted for.

    [Thunderlips makes his entrance into the arena]
    Mickey: Let's get out of here.
    Rocky Balboa: Aw, c'mon Mick, it's for charity.
    Mickey: You're wearing your anatomy out for charity. Nobody else does this much for charity.
    Rocky Balboa: Bob Hope would.
    Mickey: [pause, nods] That's true.

    Anyone who doesn't vote for Drago CLEARLY doesn't remember the Cold War.

    I'm leaning toward voting for Drago. It's between Drago and Apollo 1. Drago had the great speech at the end of it. Apollo Creed's had the "Adrian." I love you, I love you. Tough to pick one.

    You gonna consider the whole fight, brother! hahaha Rocky giving a speech to people that can't understand what he is saying. Sounds about right, cause even people that do speak his language can't understand his punch drunk slurred speech. HAHAHA

    Rocky III rematch vs. Clubber. The whole idea of him beaten down and scared of this guy and having to overcome that...that to me was the most compelling of the fight stories.

    Yeah I love the Rocky series but I'm cheap. I'm camping out at the Dollar Cinemas to be the first to see it there.
