The #1 Sylvester Stallone Fan Site in the World!
Most hardcore Rocky / Stallone fans know that a different ending for Rocky was filmed than what was used. A few photos from the original ending are seen from time to time, but Trevor O’Sullivan posted some really rare ones. Click on the photos to see larger versions or on Trevor’s name to see his Twitter.
I like this alternate First Blood movie poster by Rafał Rola. It is subtle and reminds me more of a book cover than a movie poster. Either way, I like it and hope you do as well.

Brian Truitt at USAToday came up with his list of The 25 greatest Oscar best picture winners, ranked. I’m happy to report that Rocky made the cut, coming in at number 19. I would have placed Rocky in the #1 spot, but I am a bit biased.

The other day we were talking about how huge a movie cross-over with John McClane (Die Hard) and Jack Bauer (24) would be. Can you imagine a cross-over featuring Sly Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Michael Biehn, Ray Stevenson and Arnold Schwarzenegger reprising the roles as seen above?
