re: Rocky VI: Don't Call It A Comeback by Jonathan David Morris
So, after about a year and a half after you wrote the article about Rocky VI, what do you think now about what you wrote?
Rocky VI was an awesome success, grossing over $200 million and a perfect book end to the story. I am so glad he made this movie. He has become my inspiration all over again, just like he did when I was a kid.
"The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place... and I donīt care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently, if you let it. Not you, me or nobody, is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit... It's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward... it's about how much you can take, and keep moving forward. Thatīs how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, go out and get what your worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying: "You ainīt what you wanna be because of him or her or anybody. Cowards do that and that ainīt you! Youīre better than that!" (Rocky Balboa)
