I'm there.  Better have some Apollo Flashbacks too.   LOL @ Rocky Cinematic Universe.  When I saw the Stars and Stripes trunks, I lost it.  2015 is like the 80's Babies Nostalgia Overload, lol.

Great trailer! I don't care whether this movie is a success or failure, although I'm hoping for at least Balboa numbers. I'm just so excited to watch this and see Jordan take center stage alongside Stallone. I love when young stars team up with established older ones. If the vibe is anything like the trailer suggests, it's going to be one of those movies I can watch again and again.

One gripe, I do like how they made it clear the focus is on Jordan's character but I wish they'd have edited Rocky's scenes into the trailer a little better, it came across more like he's just a cameo than the co lead.

And was that Avon Barksdale I spotted at the beginning too?

Adjusted numbers.  Yeah I agree, "Balboa" is the target right now.   Technically this is a spin off but Rocky presence will be felt cause he's a Legendary Character.  Rocky 1-4 sold some great tickets.  

[Alpha]

Yeah, this looks awesome.

[Empire]

Ok, this looks F'N amazing! I was already excited for it, but I am even more excited now!

[Cochofles]

This MB Jordan kid is so talented. He needs to become a huge star ASAP. I want him to play All kinds of awesome characters and go from Denzel-like Oscar bait to superheroes to romance to everything in between.

[The Futurist]

 

Sing along, people.

[Hangman]

Wasn't really feeling it until Stallone showed up in the trailer.  Now I'm interested.

[Jack Nevada]

Looks alright.

[Jack Nevada]

I do hope this will be good & big enough to break out both MBJ and Ryan Coogler. Wasnt the biggest fan of Fruitvale Station but it showed some real promise.

[4815162342]

Welcome aboard the Express Train everyone.

I will see this ASAP when it comes out.

Me too. When Stallone walks out of the shadow in the trailer, this 80s nostalgia feels more poignant than the smirking Terminator in Gensys

Its really been a lucrative franchise when you look at those numbers and spanned such a huge time frame as well. I wonder if the 2nd trailer will show it more from Rocky's perspective to make sure it's drawing in that audience who love the character.

I saw pics of them re creating the chicken chasing scene and that would be a nice little throwback scene to show some of in a different trailer.

Hell yeah I'm fucking in. Love MBJ, hope he breaks huge.

Although I do have one slight nitpick. Um is he going to be 30 in the film? Like was his mom pregnant with him when Apollo died? Or did Rocky IV take place in the future of the 80's?

In other news I really need to stop watching Everything Wrong With

[Warmaster506]

I'm seeing this for sure.

[Box Office Hit]

Can't wait to see this! Looks great.

It helps that this movie doesn't look terrible.

Michael B Jordan...I'm feeling it. Rocky in this type of role...liking the spinoff. I'm in.

[MrPink]

I hope they play Living in America somewhere. Trailer looks good.

[Cmasterclay]

God, Michael B Jordan is going to be a freaking superstar. Dude is so, so talented. I'm rooting for him hard. He's probably never gonna be ever to drop that B., but he's still gonna crush it for years to come. Movie looks like a very pleasant surprise- though with Coogler at the helm, and Jordan starring, maybe I shouldn't be. I've been a bit down on this film because Rocky never really did it for me, but this looks pretty awesome. Probably the most excited I've been for a Thanksgiving week film in years.
