I really
really want to think you had the idea of making this the dangled carrot topic that gets me back into the mix. LOL
I'm sure Stallone is completely and confidently convinced that each subsequent sequel ... sequels, that have always dipped into the rim of implausible (to put it mildly
) all have the power to ignite a cascade chain effect that will tip the balances of power, thus allowing him full reign to redact and rewrite our entire documented human history up to this point. Hallelujah hell yes, I still believe it: "IF I CAN CHANGE, YOU CAN CHANGE, WE ALL CAN CHANNGEEE"
The ridiculousness of his films in the 80s and 90s where the reason they were so incredible and great to watch. Where all the good guys possess extreme sentimentality, and as long as Frank Stallone headlines the OST of your training montage, it's a guaranteed win.
I wanted to do a montage of all sly least realistic and almost non-heroic moments at one point but never got around to it.
Here just... I'll just leave this here. I like to make a drinking game out of this one, how many felonies can you count in this scene alone?
