This is the first and only warning you will receive: IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN CREED, DO NOT LISTEN TO THAT PORTION OF THE SHOW! The review is full of spoilers and starts just after the 34:00 mark, so consider yourself warned.
For the first half hour of the show, however, I am talking some sports, you know, because it’s a sports show. The biggest story for me this week was the announcement that Kobe Bryant, one of my favorite players of all-time, is retiring, so I give my thoughts on that and ask my guest for the week, Garrett Collins, what the vibe is like in LA right now.
We also get into my thoughts on the 19-0 start of the Golden State Warriors, and if they can surpass the 72-10 mark of the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls, which makes both of us feel really old, and then we discuss the Fury-Klitschko fight from this past weekend before getting into the bulk of the show, which is a spoiler-filled (there, I gave you another one) review of the newest edition in the Rocky franchise, Creed. If you haven’t been keeping up with this podcast series, Garrett has had me on his show, the Binge Movie Aftertaste, for three different editions where we discuss the first six films, and after seeing this film, we just had to finish it up, and we’re damn glad we did. Here’s the links to the first three shows.
Rocky & Rocky II
Rocky III & Rocky IV
Rocky V & Rocky Balboa
It’s been an absolute blast doing these shows, as this is easily my favorite movie franchise, and this particular show was no different. We break down as many parts of the film as we can, even though we probably forgot something because we both got so wrapped up in each and every aspect of this movie. If you’ve seen Creed, you’ll love this podcast. If not, get on that quickly and come on back. How much did we like it? Well, for the ratings and our final breakdown of the series, I guess you’ll just have to listen. Enjoy.
