The robot is scrapped entirely, which means we don’t see the kids at the end watching the fight on TV, which tells you partially why the end scene, including the music, was altered. Only gets the one speech scene, which has been enhanced as well. Surprisingly, all three montage sequences survive, though somewhat altered, but Rocky Jr. That plays out throughout the movie, but mostly so at the end where Rocky’s end speech is altered and the Russian premier, instead of standing and leading his fellowmen in applause, angrily storm out. The East versus West, Cold War feeling is almost neutered. The main issue here is that while her contribution was drastically reduced, Drago didn’t really have much extra that helped it to payoff. He may as well have digitally erased her from the remaining scenes that she was in. Ninety-nine percent of her work from the original cut is gone. It is obvious that Sly hates his ex-wife, Bridgette Nielsen.
#ROCKY BALBOA SPEECH GORILLA MOVIE#
We both understood what he was going for from the pre-movie introduction and the scenes that were added, but the experience he was trying to present, the movie with more soul than ‘80s flash fell flat. Went and saw it last night, and having experienced the original in theaters when it first premiered both my buddy and I turned to each other with the same thought at the end-Stallone butchered the hell out of this.
