10.26.09 STALLONE MAKING ROCKY 7? NO, SHUT UP.
Over the weekend, the big news going around was Sly Stallone discussing the possibility of Rocky 7 in an interview with zee Germans. Here’s the translation, via Cinematical:
‘I know people would laugh at it, as I would if someone were making The Godfather Part 10. Enough! But I also know that if I succeed, it will be because this is a film about aging, not about boxing. I know it will provoke criticism. Even my wife said to me, Leave it. You’ll embarrass the children. But I said, if I do not try, I am a very unfortunate man. One must do it. Artists like me have to go through the dark over and over again.’
Naturally, everyone picked up on the story and was all like “Rocky 7? OMG WTF ROFLJO!” However, according to some German speakers over on CHUD, the translation was wrong and Sly was actually speaking in the past tense about Rocky Balboa, not about a new Rocky movie. There will be no Rocky 7. There, now you can make your friends who bring up Rocky 7 in conversation look like total A-holes. Meanwhile, when Stallone refers to himself as an artist, I picture something like this:
“Because when you’re pushed, paintin’s as easy as breathin’.”

After finishing the unicorn painting, Stallone moves on to his second-favorite mythical creature, the Balboa Constrictor.
Artists like me have to go through the dark over and over again.
Stallone wasn’t speaking metaphorically, he just can’t ever remember where that fucking light switch is.
That is my new favorite photoshop of all time. Well played, Vince.
Even my wife said to me, Leave it. You’ll embarrass the children.
My wife says the same thing when I want to wear my Official Batman Crimefighters Club button out to dinner.
Reporter: Clubber! Clubber! Any predictions on Stallone’s career?
Clubber Lang: PAAAAAIN!!!
The only thing Rocky does 7 times now is get up in the middle of the night to pee.
Artists like me have to go through the dark over and over again.
The Mighty Feklahr can only assume that Sly refers to all the times he had to slick up and pose nude for Harry Knowles in an abandoned warehouse.
rocky 6 sucked dick even if there werent any gays there.
Balboa moonlights as a bouncer in Rocky Roadhouse.
That Photochop wins teh internets. I quit. I mean, I can’t even compete with that.
There’s no adequate way to type this, but the concept of Stallone saying “Happy little trees” has been running through my head for the last ten minutes and it’s cracking me the fuck up.
Even better: Stallone practicing which syllables to put the emphasis on.
:Happy little trEES?
:Happy LITTLE trees?
:HAPpy little trees?
Donk, it’s “aaaggghhh lllaalalll trrrrrrrssss”.
Wow, how could anyone ever misinterpret what he says? He’s so articulate.

When mentally blocked artist Stallone xeroxes his face to find inspiration.
Adrian’s Revenge?
