Netflix (Sly) Slyvester Stallone Documentary
 

Been looking forward to this - especially after Arnold's which I thought was actually more revealing than what they delivered on the surface.

I have developed an appreciation for Stallone that I didn't have when I was younger - his staying power has been amazing.

Always secretly hoping for a Demolition Man sequel somehow.....

Both Sly and Arnold are enormous figures in what they were able to accomplish in life. Arnold on more of an "everything" level and Sly in film. For example, if Arnold had Stallone's wherewithal, we wouldn't be sitting here 35 years later still waiting for "King Conan" because if no one else wanted to make it, Arnold would have written, directed and produced it himself while simultaneously pounding the pavement for financiers on his own -- and we would have seen the movie 15 years ago or more. But could Stallone be governor? idk...

Just saw "Sly." It's nice but really tip-toed around the not so nice things in his life (or ignored them entirely) in a way that the Schwarzenegger mini didn't skirt.

That’s exactly what I thought about it. They tried to show more of how Sly has evolved as a person but didn’t really go deep into the dark parts of his life. I enjoyed for what it is but overall a little bit disappointed by it.

* His multiple marriage troubles.
* Almost getting #MeTooed after Creed.
* All the steroid debacles over the years.

Nothing. If you watched this, you'd think the only bad things that happened to him were about the son suicide and breaking his back on Expendables 1.

What I DIDN'T know was the story about the ice rink in Rocky 1. Apparently they all showed up ready to shoot expecting 300 extras in the stands... but due to a screw up there were 0 extras there. So they only had 2 hours to shoot so they had to cobble something quick, and we got what we got today. Incredible.
