And I guess I'm in the minority when I say I liked Conlan's intro more than Adonis's towards the final fight. Dont get me wrong PAC is GOAT. But from a overall standpoint, from the way Conlan's intro was shot combined with the music and fire was epic. The scene in its entirety was classic..Very reminiscent to Rocky IV..Was satisfied with the way it ended,it felt realistic.
Thought they did great job taking elements from the old rocky movies while refreshing them for today's generation. Actually wish that dirt bike scene could of lasted a lil bit longer. Also showing each fighter's record popping up was a nice touch.
As far as complaints...my only main gripe was when he said he had to "take a sh**" before going into the ring. It seemed out of place for a scene that was suppose to be serious. The theatre I was at ate it up but I was like "eeehhhh". I notice Hollywood does that more often with what I call forced humor. Definitely didn't take away from the movie though.
Overall good movie and looking forward to buying the dvd.
Cosign the Conlan intro. I checked it out on YouTube as soon as I got home. And the kids on the bikes was definitely a nice touch. Without them, I think that run up the street would have seemed corny.
That run up the street was corny
Me & my girl looked at eachother and laughed at that part
You and ya lady out of shape tho

That part was corny. Dont front.
They laid the cheese down thick on a few scenes.
Him running up the hill than Rocky opening the window with a smile on his face to watchover while Donny shadowboxes in the middle of the street.
Then the part where he is mirroring his daddys moves on YouTube with the projector.
The life flashing before your eyes scene that brought him back from the dead.
It was a good film and my money well spent but it had some dumb parts.

Idk about that specific situation but them dudes is riding down the block like that all day. Then again dude was lightweight reppin the city at that point so I could see that possibly happening...just not as smooth.
I fucking CRINGED at that scene with her explaining "jawn" up at Max's though. Oh my motherfuckin lord did I cringe.

They need to do a sequel like Godfather 2. Half is Creed preparing for his fight with Drago Jr, and the other half Apollo Creed Back story. How he started boxing and became Champ

If you're thinking local, this movie is beating Rocky balboa. Overall, including overseas, it's not. So in that respect, I heard right. 6 mil international for creed compared to 85. 87 overall vs 156 for Rocky Balboa.

Yeah but Creed's run isn't over. We'd also need to do some investigating into international release dates. Could be that it hasn't released in many places overseas as of yet.
You know how it is when a movie has been out. Every week it makes a little bit less. Creed won't get close to Rocky Balboa internationally. With Star Wars coming out, it's a wrap. Besides, a lot of these foreign countries ain't trying to see a "Black" movie. It sucks but it's true. Denzel went thru the same shit.
No matter what, Creed was profitable. He'll get a sequel. I'm glad I saw it.
Still is yet to be released in all the major European markets (ie UK, France, Germany etc) as well as Mexico and other SA countries and won't until mid to late January into February. That international gap will close. I do agree thought that it will have slightly less appeal internationally due to it being more focused on a black lead but at the end of the day it's still a Rocky legacy flick so it'll do fine.
And yeah a sequel is locked. They were already talking about it before the movie even dropped and Coogler said he already has some ideas. I don't want any Drago or Clubber Lang Jr.'s though. That shit would be mad corny in my opinion. I would like to see Drago though. The exploring the dynamic between Adonis and the man who killed his pops could make for really great cinema.

This happens in real life. Last minute replacements usually just get ktfo though. Back in the day, Evander Holyfield almost lost his belt to a no name dude (Bert Cooper was his name).

Doesn't happen often but the most recent was Lomenchenko getting a title fight after 1 fight, losing that and very next fight got another title shot for the same belt because it was vacated.
But movie was great, anticipating the sequel.
