I read all the books years ago and watched all movies when they came out. I loved them so much but it has been years ago now and I'm really looking forward to watching again in Ultra HD!
I have watched rest but rocky. I heard a lot about this movie so must watch it.
I did visit the Rocky Steps in Philly 😀. At that time as well I was not aware of this movie but by friends told me about it.
Here is my pic :
I would not choose any, all three are excellent; What's more, I have a list of good movies that I always have in memory, but if you tell me choose just one, I would choose The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2003) for the story, the answer and the story of the writer; Did you know that the actor who played Saruman was the only one who knew J. R. R. Tolkien in life
An Oscar winning post if you ask me! These are absolute classics and were huge at our school before going to Uni, some of the jocks even had "Gladiator speech-offs" they were that obsessed with the movie. I remember seeing LotR at the cinema and it was mind blowing with all the special effects at the time and the story. It was a long film and you felt like you were the one who threw the ring in Mount Doom you were that knackered at the end of it!
Thanks for being involved in the final contest, good luck!
Some solid choices here @chekohler! I remember going to see Gladiator in the theater when I was in college with a bunch of friends from my dorm. Definitely an entertaining flick. Rocky of course is such a classic. Especially as a fitness coach, it is fun to go back and watch some of those training scenes. Plus my mom grew up just outside of Philadelphia, so I remember going to visit family not far from where some of those iconic scenes were filmed. I really need to give LOTR more of a chance. I just have a hard time watching movies over two hours long. I know I've seen parts of each of them, but tend to fall asleep before the end. Maybe I just need to start watching in the morning as opposed to the evening. 🤣 The books however, no problem digging in and reading those.
I never got to see any of these in the cinema because I don't know maybe I was too young I can't remember, would have loved to get the real cinematic experience. I did see the Matrix in cinema in 99 which was freaking epic.
Oh, sweet, and did you at least get a Philly cheese steak? You need the calories if you're going to run the rocky mile.
You should do it like my mum did and watch it in 30 min bursts like its a series lol should take you two weeks or so but you'll get there. The books are even more content lol but really the visuals and acting make it worth checking out even if the books are better
I don't go to the theater often, but usually make it count when I do so Gladiator was a good one to see on the big screen. Though somehow I think I was one of the only people on the planet who didn't see Avatar in theaters. 🤷♀️
I actually did eat a few Philly cheesesteaks in my youth. It was a favorite of my dads. I would like to go back and visit as an adult at some point, though I don't think we have much family left in the area now.
And good call on the 30 minute bursts, haha! Brilliant! That might just be the way to go.
Lol I am in your camp, I never saw Avatar in theatres either, but I did get to watch it in 3D and the visual were pretty epic, I've yet to see a 3D movie that was worth seeing in 3D other than Avatar
You should do a vegan version of the Philly cheesesteak or is that sacrilege that would get you cancelled?
Hhhhmmm, now there's a thought. Definitely not sacrilege--if anything you get extra stamps on your "vegan" card for veganizing typical meals like that in an epic way, hahaha!
Gosh! Rocky. My word. IMO, the best thing about that film was the theme tune. But then, I'm a chick girl. I have seen Gladiator and didn't like it - probably for the same reason I didn't like Rocky. Violence. Oh, dear, so boring... Anyhow... As far as LOTR - I haven't seen it because I have read and re-read the books and am scared the movie won't live up to my teen imagination... lol. Good luck with the contest!
Oh, indeed Gladiator is pretty brutal, pretty sure it's not as gory as what it was really like to live in Roman times but who knows? I don't think rocky was that bad, the fights don't make up the entire movie, and it offers more than just seeing Sly get punched in the face lol.
Oh I can only imagine, I haven't read the books myself, so I guess I can always ruin the movies later in life lol
I've still yet to watch Lord Of The Rings, any of them. Had you not mentioned Gladiator, I wouldn't have considered it but that's definitely worthy of a top 3.
You should take a weekend and buy tonnes of popcorn and perhaps some caffeine and do yourself the favour of knocking out the TLOR trilogy and perhaps the hobbit 3 films too, well worth it

Other then Rocky I have seen other two.... and both are awesome.
You should really take the time to do a Rocky Marathon, it's worth it
Will check it...
Thanks...
Guess what I'm watching this week?
LOL love it, don’t try to watch it all in one go be sure to pace yourself it’s one hell of a long ride
I read all the books years ago and watched all movies when they came out. I loved them so much but it has been years ago now and I'm really looking forward to watching again in Ultra HD!
Damn, you're a superfan, you sure must know your elvish pretty well by now
@chekohler Me and Bilbo are mates! 💕
Rocky is the winner for me. That's actually the only one I've seen from the list
Then you should do yourself the favour and watch the other 2 I am sure you won’t regret it
I'll try. I have a hard time watching movies that are not comedy or romance.
Very good collection @chekohler
I have watched rest but rocky. I heard a lot about this movie so must watch it.
I did visit the Rocky Steps in Philly 😀. At that time as well I was not aware of this movie but by friends told me about it.

solid choices i want to shout out quotes from all three movies but I'm of what I might start!!!! Alll I'm gonna say is nobody owes nobody nothing....
YOU BUM!! You could have been a contender..Now get up, because micky loves you!
Like the guy says, you're gonna eat lightnig and crap thunder!
Excellent films are already classics ...
Which one is your favourite of the 3?

LOL yes I remember watching the second one and having a monster of a headache and dry mouth from all the popcorn but it’s still worth it
Wanna go to the movies with me and share a popcorn?
Only if you don't talk during the movie and ask why stuff is happening. We only discuss afterwards, during the movie you stay quiet as a mouse lol
Deal , can we go to James Bond please
Oh yes please 😍😍😍😍 2 hours of Ana de Armas on the big screen sounds like heaven to me

Nice selections @checkohler.
