  • 2 Nina's Rev Editor's Revision Heroic Aging in The
    COPAS—Current Objectives of Postgraduate American Studies 15.1 (2014) “You Ought to Stop Trying Because You Had Too Many Birthdays?”—The Making of an Aged Hero in Rocky Balboa Nina Schnieder ABSTRACT: This article deals with one of Hollywood’s most popular (sport) action heroes, Rocky Balboa, who, after thirty years of screen history, increasingly has to face the obstacles of age in the last installment of the franchise. Although cultural assumptions seem to contradict the combination of aging and sports hero, the article claims that the athletic protagonist Rocky Balboa is actually perceived as a true American action hero by the depiction of his progressed age as a motivation to once again “go the distance.” The article focuses on the aspects of work and the aging male body and it aims to show how the Rocky series has always dealt with the issue of male aging. KEYWORDS: age/aging; Rocky Balboa; boxing; work; male body Introduction When in 2006 Sylvester Stallone announced to release a sixth and presumably last Rocky movie—written and directed by himself—critics as well as countless studio bosses advised him not to do so, because at sixty they did not picture him as a “magnet for young moviegoers” (Weiner). Before the movie was released, audiences laughed at the trailers and critics ridiculed the project as a joke, as they seemed to watch, according to Philippa Gates, “a vanity play to make an aging star feel vital and relevant to a new generation,” and they named it a ridiculous attempt to live up to former successes.

  • The Newsroom's Toy Department: the Different Images of Sports Journalists in Films
    The Newsroom’s Toy Department: The Different Images of Sports Journalists in Films By David Sobieraj The Newsroom’s Toy Department Sobieraj 2 ABSTRACT Sports are a major part of pop culture. Sports are not just games that athletes play; they are a way of life. The roles that sportswriters and broadcasters play in the movies are a microcosm of the roles they play in real life. Most movies that include sportswriters as characters portray them as a myriad of anonymous fictional journalists who act more like paparazzi than news reporters. These characters flash cameras and yell out questions to sports stars. When real-life journalists portray themselves in bit-part roles, they are sometimes portrayed as caricatures, mocking the role of sportscasting as well as themselves. In contrast, actors who portray real-life well-known journalists and actors who play fictional sports journalists in major roles in a film take on the role of sportscasters who believe their job is to inform the public about star athletes. Moreover, the manner in which women sportswriters are depicted in films reflects the manner in which they are viewed in the real world. In summary, the journalists that cover sports in movies portray the same roles that they take on in the real world. Some are just paparazzi, looking for the latest dirt on well-known athletes. Some don’t take themselves seriously and see their job as more entertainment than hard news. Finally, some do see their role as investigative journalists who bring to light important information on the star athletes that they cover.

On November 21, 1976, Rocky brought to life the glorious grit of Philadelphia’s favorite fictional son. But Rocky Balboa won more than the hearts of filmgoers: Sylvester Stallone’s creation earned 10 Academy Award nominations—and ultimately won three, including Best Film and Best Director—led to six sequels, grossed more than $1 billion dollars and showed off a tough-love side of Philly whose legend has persisted to this day. Sure, the city’s skyline, cultural scene, restaurants and reputation have dramatically evolved since Rocky’s debut—but Philadelphia still offers plenty of real experiences evocative of the spirit of the original “Rock.” Here are some essential sites to see and only-in-Philly experiences to have in honor of Rocky’s 40th anniversary. For more, check out Visit Philly’s Quintessential Rocky Tour. Rocky Icons: The Rocky steps – Seventy-two treads lead art aficionados, exercise enthusiasts and millions of film buffs up to the East Entrance of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway’s esteemed Philadelphia Museum of Art. On any given day, Balboa wannabes jog to the top, raise their fists in the air and, on occasion, belt out “Gonna Fly Now.” Fun fact: This dolomite staircase was featured in every Rocky film except Rocky IV.

  • The Triumphs and Tribulations of the Rocky Franchise
    The Triumphs and Tribulations of the Rocky Franchise What is it about the iconic Rocky films starring Sylvester Stallone that makes them so appealing? Why do we find ourselves settling in on the couch to watch one whenever they’re on broadcast television, like a moth to the proverbial flame? Ultimately, was it necessary for the series to be “capped off” by the sometimes questionable last film in the series, Rocky Balboa? The answers to these questions, though mainly steeped in opinionated reflection, have a lot to do with the “underdog scenario,” and the way in which audiences tend to gravitate to these stories; here is an everyday neighborhood figure many of us can relate to, who smashes through the odds against him no matter how large or seemingly unstoppable his opponents appear to be…and that’s always the underlying power behind a feel-good film. Interestingly enough, the Rocky franchise plays much like a superhero/comic book series in structure: With each passing film, our main character boxes his way through tougher and tougher adversaries, much like a comic book hero does with his rogues gallery of villains, even though it sometimes goes a bit too far with regard to suspension of disbelief (if anyone punched as hard as Dolph Lundgren’s character did in Rocky IV, no one would survive the hit, let alone come back for more). Rocky, the first entry from 1976 directed by John G. Avildsen – who would go on to direct the fifth film to bring the “Philadelphia” theme full circle – introduces us to down-on- his-luck street/club fighter Rocky Balboa, who collects debts for a local loan shark by day and battles local thuggish boxers by night.
