Rocky IV

...a sharp left hand...

Come on! Come on!

Again! Again!

He's getting killed!

Oh, no, no, he's not getting killed, he's getting mad!

Come on, the whole world's watching!

Come on, knock me out!

Risin' up

Back on the street

No!

Did my time, took my chances

Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet

Again! Come on, champ, you ain't so bad!

Rocky!

So many times

It happens too fast

You trade your passion for glory

Come on! Come on!

Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past

Come on! Come on!

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

...five, six, seven,

eight, nine, ten.

You're out!

I can't believe we're doing this.

Come on, come on, we made a deal.

I know, but this is extremely crazy.

Yeah, it's mentally irregular, right?

Yeah.

But it makes all the sense in the world.

You owe me a favor.

I know, but when did you think of this?

About three years ago.

Oh, this is very crazy, Apollo.

Look, Stallion. Look, when you won that last fight,

you won by one second, you beat me by one second.

One second, that's very hard for a man of my intelligence to handle.

Oh, is it? But didn't you say after I beat you,

you learned how to live with it?

I lied.

Oh, you lied!

Oh, so now you've just got to prove it to yourself, right?

Just to myself. No TV, no newspapers, just you and me.

Nothing, just you and me. Age before beauty.

Anything you say, Stallion.

I do all the work. Okay.

I'll tell you, Apollo, we'd better go slow,

'cause you ain't as young as springtime no more.

I'm still young enough to whip your butt, Stallion.

Oh, yeah? How you gonna do that?

You taught me everything you know.

Almost everything. You've got to remember now,

you fight great, but I'm a great fighter.

You ready?

Oh, absolutely.

All right. You know, Stallion,

it's too bad we've gotta get old, huh?

Just keep punching, Apollo.

Wanna ring the bell?

All right.

Ding, ding.

Come on, Stallion.

Come on, come on.

Boy, you really move good for an older guy.

Looking fly.

Look out, now.

No, no, you don't want any of this.

Come on. Come on.

Maybe I'm in here with the wrong guy.

Dad, you're late! Mom's gonna yell at you!

So how ya doin'?

Fine.

Don't you think that's a little bright, don't you think?

A little bit?

Where'd you get that hat?

A friend gave it to me. Like it?

Who punched you in the eye?

Same friend.

That's weird. Better hurry, Dad.

You know, you're developing a very, very loud personality.

Don't go too fast or you're gonna get out of focus.

Oh, really?

Yo! Yo, it's about time.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Listen, why don't you go over there and get ready to eat, okay?

Great, you're here. Now you can stop calling him names.

Oh, you been callin' me names, huh?

Well, we wait any longer, then I'll be ready for the next birthday.

Where have you been?

Oh, out gettin' punched.

Look, why don't you bring the cake in here?

We can get the celebration underway.

Boy, am I hungry.

Hey, babe, why don't you get the cake? I think he'll love it.

We got a great surprise for you.

You're gonna love this cake, okay?

You're gonna love your present, Uncle Paulie.

Where is it? Let me set the mood here.

I've got to turn the lights down and everything.

Watch this.

Is it parked outside in the driveway?

Just be patient, would ya?

I'm so excited, in fact, I'm starting to sweat.

I feel like I'm getting ready to go

into a big fight or something.

Watch this.

Happy birthday, Paulie.

What the hell is this?

Your present.

Yo, I wanted a sports car for my birthday,

not no walking trashcan.

Oh, come on, he looks great here.

This is extremely psycho, Rocko.

Since you don't have any friends, we thought you'd like it.

Yeah, pretend you're happy, will ya?

It'll keep you company when you're all alone.

That's a great-looking guy.

Please make a wish.

It's creepy! That talks, that thing!

Creepy? This thing's the greatest.

I wish I had one of these when I was growing up.

Go on, make a wish, like he says.

I wish I wasn't in this nightmare.

Hey, very classy wish. Very nice. What do you think there?

Very good, huh?

You wanna help me put out this forest fire?

Sure.

On the count of three. One, two, three!

Well, they're out!

You drowneded me!

Oh, don't worry.

I'll clean it up for you, Paulie.

Ta-da.

Rocky.

You noticed.

What are you doing with that cake?

Well, the party ain't over yet, you know?

Still gotta celebrate some more. It's a special night.

Yeah, it's Wednesday.

It's definitely Wednesday, but in case you forgot,

it's almost been nine years since you been married to me,

so here's your prize.

Oh, but our anniversary's a week away.

That's true, but why wait?

Has it been that rough?

Oh, no.

I'll tell you, it's been excellent, really.

Open your prize. Go on.

Go on, open your prize.

Okay.

You like it?

It's beautiful.

All right!

I was so nervous. I didn't know. I hope you like it.

The guy I bought it from says,

"Even if it looks like a snake, don't worry, 'cause it won't bite you."

Oh, it's beautiful.

You know what's amazing?

That after all these years, everything still seems kind of new.

You remember a long time ago, I told you that...

I said that you ain't never gettin' rid of me?

Remember that?

Well, you're not.

You're never gettin' rid of me.

Happy almost anniversary.

Could you answer a few questions, please?

How long are you here for?

We talk later, please.

When are you gonna fight, Drago?

We talk later. Let's go.

Is it definite the Soviet Union will enter professional boxing?

Please, no more talk now. We will talk at press conference.

Do you know where it's gonna be held?

We talk later, please.

Today may have proved to be a landmark in sports history.

After unraveling years of red tape,

Russia will now throw its hat into the ring.

The prize ring, that is.

The introductions were made by his wife, Ludmilla Vobet Drago.

She was she double gold medalist in swimming.

Today, the Soviet Union has officially entered professional boxing.

My husband and great undefeated heavyweight world amateur champion,

Captain Ivan Drago,

has come here with his trainers to America

to compete as an international sportsman

and ambassador of goodwill.

Has Drago ever boxed against a real professional?

From having been trained in Russia

by great boxing coach Manuel Vega,

and now by Sergei Rimsky,

we hope he's qualified to do so.

Hope?

Well, I know he is, but I don't want to sound too confident.

If possible, we would like to have an exhibition bout

with your famous champion Rocky Balboa.

What makes you think he can stand the pressure

of fighting someone as seasoned as Balboa?

There is no one who can match his strength, his endurance,

or his aggressiveness.
