Rocky Balboa Looks a Lot Like Actor Sylvester Stallon

It's been pointed out to me on several occasions that Rocky Balboa bears a striking resemblance to thespian Sylvester Stallone. While I can't really see it myself, I will admit that Stallone is less pansy-looking than most Hollywood types. If Rocky was to be played by any actor, I guess Stallone might qualify...if he wasn't so old!

Russell Crowe is the guy to play Rocky if they ever start doing movies on his life. Case closed. Fughedaboutit!

Original Poster for Rocky...Messed Up!

One of the posters for the film featured a shot of Rocky and Adrian holding hands. Although this was one of the most popular images associated with the film, the scene this image was taken from was cut from the film.
