LotofSly Autograph: John Landis

Craig / / 2012, Celebs, Oscar

That’s an autographed mini-poster for “Oscar” starring Sly Stallone. It’s autographed by John Landis, the director of, the very under-rated “Oscar” and so many other fan favorite films.

My pal, Alex surprised me with a package containing it and several other Stallone-related autographs that I’m going to post on the SZ over the coming weeks. Alex, as you’ve probably guessed is also known as LotofSly on the SZ message boards where he also serves as one of our moderators [and now has his own section Me &…]. Alex has met more celebrities than anyone else I know, and he somehow always manages to get photos with them. That’s in addition to being an all-around nice guy… and as nice as Alex is THAT has to be a full time job!


Rambo 5 Still a Possibility?

Craig / / 2012, Rambo 5

According to a report posted at Movie Hole on February 9, 2012, writer Sean B. Hood (“Conan the Barbarian”) sent out the following tweet:

  • Rambo 5 on hold as Sly finishes Expendables 2. He hasn’t decided if R5 will be an “Unforgiven” or a “passing of the torch.”

 

Could this mean that Sly would be open to another outing as Rambo if the script was right?  I could definitely get behind an “Unforgiven” slant on the character.

Mike Kunda is Looking for Rocky Fans

Craig / / 2012, Rocky

That’s StalloneZoner, Mike Kunda on the set of the a documentary based on Mike’s excellent [and highly recommended] memoir Cue the Rocky Music.  The photo was taken by photographer/reporter Rich Howells for his article “Living the Dream” which details the path that Mike and  director Jim Toscano have taken to get the documentary made.  

Mike is a long-time supporter and friend of the StalloneZone.  Frank Stallone recently wrote…

  • Mike Kunda hands down is the greatest Rocky impersonator ever I saw . Has the smallest mannerisms down to a tee.


So, know you know more about Mike, how would you like the opportunity to appear along side him in the Rocky documentary?  If you’re a Rocky fan, here’s your chance!


Arnold & Sly: Shoulder to Shoulder

Craig / / 2012, Celebs, Expendables, Expendables 2, Tomb

For years fans hoped to see Sly Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger appear in a movie together.  The dream team-up finally occurred in The Expendables.  When it was announced that Arnold would be back in a bigger role for The Expendables 2, fans couldn’t believe their luck.

Speaking of luck, what are the odds that both Arnold and Sly would find themselves side by side in a hospital prep room with both going in for shoulder surgery?  Not to worry though, once they are healed both Arnold and Sly are set to team once again in The Tomb.

Lance Sawyer Got Carter

Craig / / 2012, Craig's Sly Art, Get Carter

Lance Sawyer makes his third [and hopefully not last] appearance at the StalloneZone, this time with his take on Sly as Jack Carter from “Get Carter.” I’ve been a fan of Lance’s art for a while. Recently I had a chance to purchase a few sketches from him and I could not be happier in how they turned out!

If you’d like to see more of Lance’s art, you can right here.

That’s an autographed mini-poster for “F.I.S.T.” starring Sly Stallone. It’s autographed by Norman Jewison, the director of “F.I.S.T.” and so many great movies.

My pal, Alex surprised me with a package containing it and several other Stallone-related autographs that I’m going to post on the SZ over the coming weeks.
