Oh yes Creed 2 is out in November. Creeds son versus Drago's son who according to tabloid reports is being played by Roy Maurice Keane.

Mickey sounds like Popeye. 

I love him ion Rocky 2. '' Its over Rock!!''

Rocky 3 is where it starts getting cheesy.  Imagine he won an oscar for Rocky 1! Then it descends into cheese on toast.

In Rocky 3 Paulie starts a fist fight with Rocky because he is jealous of his fame and how he hasn't offered him a job as some sort of payback/reward.  Then Rocky offers him a job and the fight ends.  Yet in Rocky 2 he asks Paulie to work in his corner for the fightErmm

Never a fan of Paulie. Talk about a bitter, twisted, no good waster.

Correct he trusted a dodgy accountant who robbed them.  Paulie was a waster who lived off Rocky.  In Rocky 3 he teaches the kid about horse betting.  A bad man with questionable morals.
