The "Rocky" thread

[XERO]

Paulie was a love/hate vibe for me. He had his moments, but he was also a piece of sh*t to his sister, bummed off Rocky, was a borderline racist to Apollo, had a fetish for a robot, inadvertently forced the family to go bankrupt, and got laid off from a job he was institutionalized in.

And Burt Young played that role to perfection. He will be missed.

The Stallone recut retconned that one away, at least.

Arguably, Paulie can’t take all the blame for the family bankruptcy, as he was just dealing with an accountant that Rocky/Adrian had already established a business relationship with, but I’d have to rewatch that part again to remember who initiated the deal. I think, established accountant recommended “power of attorney” on account of all of them traveling to Russia during the Cold War, probably saying it was in the best interest of their son in a worst case scenario.

But Paulie has has regrets, no doubt:

And yeah, it sounds like Jonathan Majors threw a major monkey wrench into Creed 4, as I suspected.
