You know, Rocky didn't win in the first movie. Unless you meant the sequels.

Not much. I check out documentaries on ocasion but for the most part, I'm not a movie person. I do like some comedies. Judd Apatow movies usually tickle me.

Fantasy movies that contain one or more of the following:
(Harry Potter series is the exception)


talking animals
British children
dragons
magical powers
trolls, elves, or other mythical short people, hairy or not
swords


I mean it, I see a combo of two or more of these things, and I'm fast asleep in a few seconds or out of the room, pronto!

Comedy movies. Too much simplistic US TV style humor - Not funny.
Boxing / Hockey movies - YUK
Martial Arts - YUK
Horror flicks - mostly made for 16 year olds
Musicals - really?

I like action adventure movies. Unrealistic and entertaining without a political agenda please.
I love British TV and movies. Brilliant productions.

Sports and boxing movies bore me to death.

Weird your right, I forgot about that. And I actually own the DVD! I last watched it years ago. I just assumed he won.
