Enough Is Enough


Sylvester Stallone is sparring with boxing champ Roy Jones Jr. because he wants the fighter to sign up for his Rocky VI movie.

The movie star wants the heavyweight champ to play fictional champion Mason 'The Line' Dixon in the film, which Stallone will write, direct and star in. Meanwhile, Stallone has an initial title for his sixth Rocky film - Rocky Balboa.

Shooting is scheduled to begin in December in Los Angeles and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the film is slated to be released next November. The movie star insists Rocky fans will see a few familiar faces in the movie: "People that were in the first movie, that you didn't think much about, are back - really minor characters are now major characters."

1 Wouldn't it have been better to just call it "Balboa" ?? That way, if you get the box set or have all of the individual copies, you can line them up on your shelf and "Rocky" can be on the left, while "Balboa" sits on the right. This is how my messed up mind works sometimes .... regardless, this is a BUST in the making - total flop - but go figure, I'll pay $8 to see it. I've invested too much time in the Rocky franchise to stop now .... Stallone better lose the man boobs and get into shape or else it will just look ridiculous.

2 Heavy sigh...This man was my first, celebrity crush. I don't think I want to see him as, "Rocky Balboa, Geriatric."
