Is Rocky Balboa famous?
A Who2 biographyhttp://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/3/34/200px-RockyBalboa1stChampionship.jpg* Born: 1976 * Birthplace: The Movies * Best Known As: Star of the Rocky film series Rocky Balboa is the fictional boxer created by Sylvester Stallone in the 1976 film Rocky. The film tells the story of a down-and-out Philadelphia boxer who gets a long-shot title fight with heavyweight champion Apollo Creed. Rocky was a tremendous hit, winning the Academy Award as best picture and making Stallone a major Hollywood force. (The actor had been nearly unknown before writing the script and convincing producers to let him play the lead.) Rocky appeared in four numbered sequels, battling a series of pugilistic villains while winning and losing championships and fortunes: Rocky II (1978, featuring a rematch with Creed), Rocky III (1982, with Mr. T as opponent Clubber Lang), Rocky IV (1985, with Dolph Lundgren as Russian nemesis Ivan Drago), and Rocky V (1990, with Stallone's real-life son Sage as Rocky Balboa, Jr.). In 2006 Stallone brought the character back for a fifth sequel, Rocky Balboa, in which a much older Rocky comes out of retirement to fight an exhibition against a champion named Mason Dixon (played by real-life boxer Antonio Tarver). Rocky's nickname is "the Italian Stallion"... The original Rocky also won Oscars for best director (John Avildsen) and best editing (Richard Halsey and Scott Conrad). The theme song "Gonna Fly Now" was nominated for an Oscar and remains an iconic Hollywood tune... Stallone directed sequels II, III, IV, and Rocky Balboa. Avildsen returned to direct Rocky V... Avildsen also directed another underdog sports flick, The Karate Kid (1984)... The films defeated by Rocky in the best picture competition were Taxi Driver, All the President's Men, Bound for Glory and Network... Tommy Morrison, the nephew of John Wayne, appeared in Rocky V as Rocky's ungrateful protegé Tommy "Machine" Gunn... Stallone has often said he was inspired to write the first film after seeing Chuck Wepner fight Muhammad Ali in 1975. Wepner sued Stallone in 2003, saying he had not received payments promised by Stallone; the two settled the suit out of court in 2006.
How did Rocky Balboa become who he is?
While Rocky Balboa is only a fictional character in the "Rocky" movies- he started fighting at age 15 and boxed against other underdog fighters like himself. Then he was given the opportunity to go up against the world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed. So Rocky trained himself real hard by running up and down the steps in Philadelphia. Even though he did not win the first fight- he managed to last throughout the rounds. Apollo then declared a rematch and Rocky won against him in the second fight. That made him the new world heavyweight champion. He instantly became a worldwide celebrity and was seen on television as well as merchandise. Then he ended up fighting guys like Clubber Lang and Ivan Drago. After that was when he lost all of his money and ended up having to retire from fighting due to permanent brain damage. Rocky then ended up training Tommy "the Machine" Gunn who later betrayed him and caused them both to fight on the streets. Many years later- Rocky comes out of retirement to fight a much younger boxer named Mason "the Line" Dixon. This was his last fight ever and he still is remembered to this day for being one of the greatest boxers of all time.
