Rocky I & II were not terrible, they were classics. All three of the LOTR films were good, but not great & certainly not classics.

Should we not leave it as a difference of opinions?

Rune Son of Bjarne you must have an abnormal sense of humour then. Even the most biast of film critics can see that the first Rocky film, & possibly the second, were classics that are now almost as popular as they were in the 70s.

Perhaps Stallone could play a part in The Hobbit as Bard?

But Rocky didn't have a bow that was John Rambo, so he would be known as Bard the Ram-BowMan.

How does John Rambo rank with the characters in the LOTR? I would also have put him up there in the top ten alongside Rocky Balboa. Come to think of it, John Rambo would have made a very good Aragorn for the LOTR movies too, had Stallone been 5 years younger & a little taller.

Well, the 6th film has finally come out. Rocky Balboa proved he was still the people's hero to this modern day. Do you think we will say this for the likes of Frodo & Aragorn in 20 years time?
