  • I recently did a search to find this movie intro but was very SURPRISED to find that NOBODY posted it with the Survivor's Eye Of The Tiger song included?! I honestly wonder how anyone could possibly post this movie intro WITHOUT including the EYE OF THE TIGER song too? That is the best part of the intro....make that the "FULL MOVIE INTRO."
    So here it is for the WORLD'S BENEFIT. Enjoy! I call this "Motivational ROCKET FUEL for the spirit!"
    This also happens to be my very FIRST CZcams video upload ever. Yeah, I've been needing to get into it for a long time. Perhaps I picked a good video clip for it.

      @@vapordreams983 With all due respect, the change was from the sublime melancholy nature of the 70s and the first two Rocky movies evolving into the glitzy glam go go capitalism and enthusiasm of the 80s. Greed is good pined Gordon Gecko. In Rocky 2 he couldnt do a simple commercial to save his life. In the beginning of 3 hes doing commercials for American Express, and the Muppet show. So he either read the Gospel of Wealth, took acting lesssons, got greedy, or all of the above. Real life showed Jane Fonda in the 70s as a anti war activist criticizing America and possibly capitalism, to an about face in the 80s schlepping exercise videos and marrying Ted Turner....go figure.

    SYLVESTER STALLONE is definitely one of my personal heroes in life.
    He wrote the screenplay for "ROCKY" while living on a shoe-string budget out of a one bedroom apartment, and (according to what I remember hearing) he was so poor that he could hardly afford to by food, and so he saved by eating raw eggs (or drinking them) just like Rocky did in the movie. So he was literally LIVING the life of his character in many ways. Then success exploded into his life, and suddenly he was playing the starring role of what ended up winning BEST PICTURE of the year. Sly Stallone IS 'ROCKY'...in real life, and he's a real inspiration to millions, including me.

    this is an absolute masterpiece, I love the contrast between Clubber Lang & Rocky. Rocky takes his eye off the ball, loses the "eye of the tiger" so to speak. In contrast Clubber Lang is laser-focused on becoming champion, he eats sleeps & fights, he has the eye of the tiger.

    • @girlgarde
      @girlgarde Před rokem +8

      Rocky lost his focus because until Clubber Lang came along, none of his opponents had that killer instinct that Rocky had when he was a challenger. That combined with Rocky doing stuff that famous people do is why Clubber Lang wasn't impressed or pleased with him and honestly thought that Rocky was ducking him when in fact, Rocky's coach was putting select boxers against Rocky to protect him.

      @@Dangerous2099 SMH...the intro IS SET in the late 70's. You just have to apply logic. What the OP is saying is that the ROCKY TIMELINE parallels what Sly went through. He wins the rematch against Apollo in November 1976 and defends the title 10 times up until August 15th, 1981. We know that's the date of the first Lang fight because that's the date of Mickey's death on his tomb. That time frame is how you see him meeting Presidents Ford, Carter, and Reagan in the montage. So based on this, Clubber first comes on the radar around 1978 and rises as Rocky is beating these lesser fighters during that three years. Which is why he says, "you made me wait three years!" in the first fight against Rocky.

    One of the best sequel intros ever. How it opens with the upbeat fanfare to quickly get you reminiscing of Rocky's victory in the second one, then it quickly suspends that, putting you right in the seat of the climax of the second movie to let you relive the struggle Rocky had to face to win the belt, the victory. Then that smooth transition to one of the coolest, most lyrically appropriate songs of any movie (given that they wrote it specifically for the movie) covering Rocky's continued victory in pretty safely maintaining his championship status in a really great parallel to Stallone's own rise from upmost struggle and poverty to stardom and worldwide recognition. Quickly it reveals Clubber, the new tiger, hungry, eyeing up Rock with disdain and immediately you can tell he sees something not yet made known to us. Before we're told any more, Clubber goes through a training montage of Rocky proportions that makes him ready to release that destructive momentum through the contenders ranks in brutal fashion. We then come to see what Clubber sees, what antagonises him so much, that Rocky in holding the belt against good fighters, not killers (as Micky tells us later on), he's lost that tiger, the killer in himself, comfortably living the life he never had at the sacrifice of the edge he needed to go 15 rounds with Apollo and subsequently beat him, in order to obtain the belt. That same belt that he's now propping up which he unknowingly sacrificed his animal instinct for by Micky's safeguarding, has led him to become civilised, a celebrity. Clubber continues to rise to through the ranks to the top of the contenders list, knowingly turning to Micky in the audience to declare his intent to come after Rocky, despite Micky's best efforts for Rock to avoid a true killer to protect his eye, his health, knowing that the Rocky that would be able to take down Clubber is gone, making way for the civilised, content Rocky who has conquered the struggle that made him who he was in order to claim the belt, that same struggle that Clubber is raging to overcome by taking Rocky's civilised head off. Amazing opening, to give us so much information in the first 5 minutes through a big flashback, mostly visuals and only very occasional dialogue with a score that is a household name to this day. So good.

      It's the little details that get me. In the first two Rocky movies, Rocky's a poor man, a talented boxer, but a terrible actor, almost a nobody trying to make ends meet. Then, he winds up in back-to-back matches against Apollo Creed, and he soon builds up enough strength against him to dethrone as the heavyweight boxing champion of the world. In III, Rocky gradually transforms from a scrappy boxer to a national celebrity. The guy's selling out Caesar's Palace and Radio City Music Hall. His name is plastered on Gatorade, t-shirts, magazines, glassware, snacks and billboards. He's even guest starring on The Muppet Show. THE FREAKING MUPPET SHOW!

    I remember reluctantly seeing this in theatres. 11yrs old, not really in to dramatic movies. When those fireworks went off & “Eye of the Tiger” started playing I was mesmerized. It pulled me in completely. Not only did it solidify my love for these movies it was also the reason I asked for my first record player. I absolutely wore out that 45 single. Just the best.

    I remember opening night for Rocky III at the sold out theater. People cheered at this opening and again at, “Yo Adrian, I did it!”. Then the opening montage with the now immortal, “Eye of the Tiger”. I remember thinking, “they must have made this great song just for this film because the drums and guitar perfectly matched the punches”. People were whooping at the screen watching Rocky go through all the opponents and silence when Clubber Lang destroyed his. I and the audience were terrified of Clubber. What a great time! What a great movie.

    Clubber truly represented what Rocky was before he became champ. Only difference is Rocky was given his shot by Apollo whereas Clubber climbed the rankings through hardwork, discipline, and determination. I wouldn't have called him a villain but rather a more vicious and brutal version of Rocky who wanted to be the champion and was willing to put all the work and effort in to achieve it. Rocky beat Clubber the second time around with the help of Apollo and that's when Clubber knew he was back to his old self before winning the belt from Apollo and knew that beating Rocky again was going to be more difficult the second time.
