I love the fight choreography - it's not perfect but it's believable and shows a smart, mobile champion boxer (Creed) vs a tough slugger (Balboa).
I also like the fact that Rocky doesn't actually win, it's a split decision that the judges give to the champ, Apollo Creed. <--- that's kinda realistic.

I love the way at 3 mins 43 secs Nancy asks 'who are you?' and this weird, burnt guy just lifts up his dirty sweater and slices open his own stomach. <--- better run, Nancy, imagine what he'd do to you if he catches you.
Also, I love the way her breathing is out of control at 4 mins 20 secs.

I love the way the fairground music changes to an ominous rumble at 27 secs. The whole thing is very 'Lynchian', as it were. Yes, it's the opening to The Elephant Man (1980), directed by David Lynch.
that applies not just in this country.
.
i just thought it was worth mentioning.🤔.
Well said, Min (& Simon).
This current coronavirus crisis shows up the open borders policy for the lunacy that it undoubtedly is.
the banking industry needed the kiss-of-life 12 years ago via tax-payers' money; uk privatised railway companies are totally dependent on tax-payers' cash for survival, and now airlines will be queuing up to receive public money to ensure the survival of their private companies.
"european aviation faces a precarious future and it is clear that co-ordinated government backing tax-payer's money will be required to ensure the industry survives...” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-51904769.
where should the line be drawn?.
Does capitalism DEPEND on socialism for its survival? - no, it doesn't.
But socialism (socialist policies) can only continue to exist in stable, capitalist countries (see Sweden, Norway, Denmark). So socialism/socialist ideas and policies depend on capitalism for their survival.
hey!.
first of all i want to mention that i'm not a member of the jehovahs witnesses.
however i'm open and non-judgemental towards any kind of religion.
Which came first the dinosaur or the egg? -
^^^ The egg still came first. Eggs with hard shells existed before dinosaurs came on the scene.
i am curious can a single jw sister get a breast augmentation?
will the elders disfellowship her?
will jehovah be angry with her or upset?
Can single sisters get Breast Augmentation? - and which one would they get done?
i'm a bit of a horror fan - i love horror movies and the novel dracula by bram stoker is a pretty good read - especially the first four chapters, with jonathan harker being in dracula's castle.. i've heard before that stoker based count dracula on a 15th century voivod (prince) of wallachia who went down in history as vlad the impaler - apparently, he was extremely barbaric and cruel, as his name suggests.. vlad's father was also called vlad.
daddy vlad was apparently part of an order of crusader knights, the order of the dragon.
this order was formed to protect christian europe against muslim ottomans/turks.
Hi Simon - is the Dracula adaptation you saw the one that is written by Mark Gatiss and stars Claes Bang?
Writer Mark Gatiss himself is a big horror fan, and I like some of his Sherlock episodes, too.
I don't have Netflix or even a TV licence but I've seen this DVD available. At the moment, it's too expensive for me (£13) but I might buy it if it goes down in price.

Hi Leonie, welcome to the forum.
We're not actually Jehovah's Witnesses here.
This site is a place for ex-Witnesses, people who were born into the cult and thus were forced to live by the cult's rules, and there are also a few interested others.
Evolution is generally accepted here.
Is your chemistry teacher a believing JW? Is he trying to argue against evolution and for a literal reading of the Bible book of Genesis?
(BTW, teachers specialising in chemistry tend not to be experts in evolution/biology.)
even if you are young and heathy there are very good reasons to fear this disease and take drastic actions to avoid it individually, and halt it together as communities.
not only would it be traumatic as a society to lose so many old and unwell family members and friends, but survivors of the disease may suffer significant health problems in the future.
survivors of the first sars virus in 2003 have suffered significant lung problems.
We must find the discipline to practise social distancing and other measures as they have in South Korea, China, Hong Kong, and Singapore - so, no open borders, right?
