Rocky IV-VI / Raquel Stecher

Raquel Stecher once again joins
James on the podcast to complete their
conversation about the Rocky series with bits and baubles about
Rocky IV, Rocky V, and Rocky Balboa. How much of a role
does nostalgia play in the enjoyment of the Rocky
films? And does that even matter when sitting down
to enjoy a film franchise? As we weave our way through the
decline of Rocky, we talk Dolph Lundgren's unholy bench press,
the inexplicable creative decisions behind Rocky V, and the sweet
and sentimental coda to the franchise. We play the inaugural "Hot
Minute of Cinema Shame" game and wax romantic about training
montages.
