I saw the movie Rocky for the first time today

Because I'd always intended to see it; it's one of those movies which everyone is supposed to have seen, and the library had it, so I checked it out and watched it.

It's a pretty darned good movie, isn't it?

Here's a trivia question for you, and if I had a paid account, I'd do this as a poll:

At the Big Fight at the end of Rocky, who wins, Apollo Creed or Rocky Balboa?

Apollo.

Also, the thing won Best Picture for its year.

Don't get me started...

Yeah, beat out Taxi Driver, All the President's Men, Network. and Bound for Glory. Sheesh.

Yeah, I kind of think there were a few other choices the Academy could've made. (Just a few.)
