Ep. 15 - Rocky IV

Scoring At The Movies wraps up 2018 by socking you in the bloody kisser with our first boxing picture: Rocky 4!.
This might be the dumbest flick in the entire franchise, but it’s also an adrenaline-pumping 90 minutes of jingoistic euphoria. And those songs! Pure 80's joy. We discuss all the movies in the Balboa series fairly equally here. Controversial stances abound! Does Apollo have a lust for fame that turns into a death wish? Why is Paulie still kicking around to wreck everything? Just how did these actors get those bodies? And “Hearts On Fire” > “Eye Of The Tiger”!
All that and so much more awaits yous in SATM episode #15!

Gene Hackman brings his steady excellent-ness to the high-school basketball classic Hoosiers in the 14th edition of Scoring At The Movies.
This is one of Ryan's most-beloved sports pictures. Chris, on the other hand, isn't 100% down with it, particularly with Jimmy's Hamlet-esque struggles to play or not to play. We also share our favourite scene (they're vastly different), we talk about how much sports are in this sporty flick, about Coach Dale's on-going clash with the whole town of Hickory, and about how Ryan is Ollie.
