@gigi-tastic I would’ve been ok with paying for Mary Poppins

Yeah it’s pretty funny

No, we keep them in our rats.

I don’t recognize a ‘stache-less PFT.

Um, hello, you forgot the one armed push-ups.

Both Rocky and Adrian are 30 - the movie said this. Not sure about Paulie, but I could've sworn Paul said Paulie and Rocky were both 30. New theory: Paulie and Adrian are twins.

And how adorable is this picture of baby Butkus and baby Rocky?

Re: above, Orson Wells said a director is someone who presides over a series of accidents.

I could be reading too much into things, but I thought although Adrian was nervous, she didn't necessarily want to leave Rocky's apartment either. It's this little moment where Rocky has his arms on both sides of her and she sort of checks out his forearm: So sorry about the huge pic (and the odd screen grab), but I thought it was kind of hot. After they get down to the floor (and I instantly wanted to bleach the doorway), Adrian lets out a moan and I thought again, hot. Anyway, I didn't believe for a second that Rocky would have it in him to hold her against her will. I think he liked her too much. Also, Amazon trivia says that this scene wasn't shot the way it was originally scripted. Talia had the flu and was worried about giving it to Stallone, so she was very hesitant to kiss him. Her hesitation was reported a big improvement over the actual scripted scene that they kept it. Stallone said this is his favorite scene in the entire Rocky saga and both he and Talia Shire see the scene as a "birth-scene" for Adrian, where she is awakened to a new life.

It was kind of weird that in the movie, Kathleen walks out on St Clair, but Wiki says that St Clair married Kathleen after Florence died. I guess we can chalk it up to artistic license again.

@taylorannephoto Happy belated birthday!

My team is scouring Manhattan for chives at this very moment.

Re: Florence's dream sequence on her deathbed - I chucked that up to the CNS symptoms commonly seen in the tertiary stage of syphilis, including delusions and dementia. So...it was kind of depressing. Anyhoo, I made potato salad (in a bowl)! I blame the movie.

I wish they explained why she was afraid of pointy objects.
