  • epic

  • James this is fucking awesome!! I fucking love rocky!!!

  • James should show us the location of the mountain in Rocky IV next...THE VERY TOP OF IT!

  • and the phillies!

  • Black guy waving at 6:20

  • After watching both parts, I really got chills looking at this. I have all the soundtracks and the way you put the music to your shots is amazing man. I had a smile on my face for so long. Seeing this side of you and you AVGN persona, man you're a lot like me with my radio show. You have my respect as a film maker and cool as hell. Would love to interview you on the show one day. Great job. Rocky BEST MOVIE EVER!

  • Thx...can´t hold my tears.

  • Love my home town cause of this

  • thanks alot for posting! this was wonderful.

  • Rocky is like Robin Hood... fictional but so real

  • The Thinker is thinking how awesome it is that James Rolfe walked by

  • I'm gona make sure I run those steps at least once in my lifetime.

  • James, fantastic job man! You are my inspiration to research and make some documentaries of my own. I live in NJ and have begun to research and visit many of the historical and interesting places in NJ and PA and film them. In fact my cousin has a jewelry store right across the street from the Colonial theater that you featured in your Blob video. I was there last weekend and will be again this weekend doing some work for her and I plan to film it while I'm there.

  • some time in the future, someone is going to visit all of those spots just because filmmaker james rolfe went there.

  • @LordOfJoy If that so let him come to Thailand first, I'll wait him at the airport :D

  • Thumbs up for the Thinker thought!

  • Epic vids, but only 45 000 views??

  • This is brilliant James! You are truly a dedicated fan to the Rocky series.

  • Good job. You should visit other movie sites.

  • this was so beautiful

    message to James:

    You f%#king rock

    You do an awesome job

    I hope you never die

    Your my hero

    Thank you!

  • Just this summer I traveled to Philly I ran up those steps put my feet were rockys were and felt AMAZING just a movie can make you feel that way is incredible

  • its funny how legends are born .. im wondering whats the new legend 20 years from now is going to be ..

  • A grave for a made up person... haha thats a bit fuckin silly

  • is tht huge water fountain at 6:10 the same fountain from the katy perry 3oh3 video

  • I bet a lot of us, and people who ran he steps were like " oh look this place is a museum."

  • Man, this documentary you made is simply AWESOME!!! I wish I can do such a tour one day, although my dream is to run those steps :D

  • The Rocky movies were not only a piece of art, but also true master pieces!

    Other than a museum, I cannot think of a better place for that statue.

  • This is probably the most amazing tribute given to the rocky series, good job mate keep it up!

  • avgn!!!!!!

  • good job!

  • I finally ran the steps in 2007, and on my mp3 player I was listening to the exact point of Gonna Fly Now that was playing in the first movie when Rock was running up. It was beyond amazing.

  • YO ! YOU REALLY CRAZY MAN, how u could....wow ! this is wonderful, i'm a rocky fan since i was a child, thank u, man.i liked it, this is great! ,one of the best thing i ever seen in youtube, thanks

  • i love rocky

  • The story of Rocky is probably the single most inspirational in cinema and your ocumentary totally did it justice. Rock on James.

  • GREAT WORK! Rocky is the best an symbolizes the great sport of boxing...Fight ur way up an out of povetry...In real life that holds true in Boxing.

  • the thinker is thinking that is it's awesome rocky just ran by :D

  • i wish i was there to see the movie on the rocky steps and meet sly in 2006 cause i am a big fan of the rocky movies

  • most of the rocky landmarks dont look good

  • now I have the urge to move to Philly and rocky it up every morning.

  • me to

  • hah retards like the zoo

  • Awesome!

    Rocky was my childhood hero and I still love the movies today.

  • James your the man!  I love Rocky Balboa. Stallone has always been an inspiration from rocky to Rambo. Five stars and a fav.!

  • James, don't ever stop what you're doing bro. You make my days a little better.

  • God that was great. I hope James hits it big some day!

  • Really good video. :)

  • I've Rockyed a few times. It was epic.

    I was also there for for the moving of the Rocky statue in 2006. I met Sylvester Stallone, and watched Rocky on the steps. I flew out of Montana just to see it. Wish I had talked to you, James!

  • awesome job! That pug was awesome too. :D

  • I live in Kansas right now =/

    Once I have the money im moving to Philadelphia!

  • Thank you for this James! It was both entertaining and educational, thank you.

  • Great job james. thx a lot.

  • That was entertaining, thanks for the trip.

  • dude, that was epic. that must have taken a lot of time.

  • your awsome!

  • i'm going soon to run the rockey steps

  • dito

  • james that was awesome,,good job dude

  • Hey James, could you fly over to Thailand, Burma & Afghanistan to show us all of the original Rambo spots? ;-)

  • good on lol

  • @LordOfJoy LOL That would be epic!

  • James the amount of time you spent on this is truly insane. You need to get some place like SpikeTV to host this or even better yet put it up in their play list like thursday after noon 1-1:30pm

  • Probably the best original documentary on Youtube anyone has ever done. Should be proud James.

  • That was amazing!. Great documentary James. :)

  • i'm not one for documentaries but this was epic! great honor to the movie :D

  • 8:07 to 8:11, avgn jay-walks

  • Ran u the steps last month,truly amazin!!!

  • i'm fucking love rocky!!!

  • one thing i wanna do in the future is to run the philly steps

    i was hoping calzaghe would fight hopkins in philly but it went to vegas

  • lol maybe some day, someone will pay real money to see the appartment in which you filmed the angry nerd vids...lol hell I'd pay money even now just to sit down and have an indepth discussion about gaming and movies, while drinking a beer with you. A true moment of geek epiphany that would be. Make me a price!! I assume cash is good!? :P (Joking of course...well maybe only partially :P)

  • When one sits back and looks at the entirety and vastness of all the work you do James, it's hard not to be awed. You kick ass dude, seriously. I and many others look upon you as an inspiration. Anyway, enough ass kissing, thx for making this vid I enjoyed it and found it fascinating. Rock on Bro

  • Are they really gonna kock down the art museum???

    Thats sad!

  • Great documentary!

  • cujo dude if he likes rocky then y cant he express that u dont have any right to dismiiss it and y r watching this if u dont like rocky it was a create series y cause it was real none of this lazy computerized stuff

  • Awesome vid!

  • Rocky Jumped a Park Bench

  • hey you should sell this to rocky you should show him if possible this video he could make a movie about "Locations of the rocky move" I am a big fan of The rocky Films and rambo And of course SLY himself but could you go to russia and look for the location of the training montages it would be very interesting :) But that is just a tip :)

  • Fuckin' sweet set of videos!!!!!!! I love the angry video game nerd!

  • Was Rocky 4 really filmed in Russia, probably not.

  • Yeah rocky !!

  • A curse that no Philadelphia sports teams would ever win..? Haha, Phillies just broke it.

  • The ending is SOOOOOOOO epic !

    Damn James, everything you make is fantastic !

    Shit... Let's see the Rocky series again !

  • oh and I forgot to make note of calling the buffalo a bull. Yes I know male bison are called bulls but I seriously doubt if thats what you meant. Also, both male and female bison have horns.

  • LOL! Thats not a deer its an elk. Its funny how no one from the east coast can identify US wildlife other than roaches. Other than that, good documentary. Well done.

  • Dude, you need to be making and getting paid to do documentaries for tv and real movies like for the History channel or something, because this is fricken great. O_O

  • Does James live in Philadelphia?

  • yup :D

  • Ok. I thought he lived in New Jersey.

  • He just recently moved to Philly about a year ago.

  • i must meet him i live in pa

  • that was great!now i have a lot more places to visit in Philadelphia. I'm dying to run all those miles.

  • wow i was really impressed by this doc... kudos!

  • lol good job thats a bison my friend

  • I have been there, and ohh yah i ran up those steps.

  • 10:10 holy crap

  • Me and 29 other friends travelled all the way to philadelphia to do 2 things... To run those rocky steps (It was something epic when 30 guys are running at the same time those steps... And I have a picture from that :) What a great memory...) 2 To watch flyers game...

  • u just got to lvw it.

  • rocky=one of the best movies ever made

  • correction one of the best movies ever made forever!

  • @nocliper101 Rocky=THE best movie ever made.

  • 2:40-2:42, HA! :)

  • kewl

  • when i go philly ima run thos steps lol

  • are u from philly? or somewher els in penn

    ?

  • Wow good job, and I just know if i would ever was to go there I think the famous steps would be the only thing I'd recognize.

    And dare i say it nice to see something where you're in a positive mood. The tone of this made it easy to forget you're the AVGN.

  • ok if i need to call you ill just say HEY YOU!

  • Very inspiring!

  • "Epic"

  • What did adrian balboa die off?

  • Breast cancer

  • Its ovary cancer, not breast cancer.

  • This was awesome work. I have always wanted to know the history behind the run and some of the scenes as well. I am surprised that you guys did not find the original Atomic Hoagie Shop or the Ice Rink that Adrian and Rocky had their first date--lol Great Job!

  • I did not know that there was a first part and was amazed that the atomic Hoagie Shop and Ice Rink were documented. This guy has it all just about covered. Incredible

  • Thanks for this awesome documentary! Great work

  • i do that evey time i get up the stairs in my house !!

  • hey, now if you ever need some dough u can set up the first ever ROCKY site seeing tour. I'd pay up to $100 dollars to do it if it exsisted... :)

  • Such a great documentary man! Totally loved it! Keep up your good work, i look forward to seeing whatever stuff you have planned next.

  • Loved it. Guess I'll have to have a Rocky marathon now. =)

  • By Far one of the best movies ever made. I love All of The Rocky Movies(except #5 cause that one was pretty bad).

  • i laughed at that bit.

  • that was beautiful nice work on the before-after shots

  • great video thanks

  • You really must have done a lot of research to make this. Good work and interesting to see the things that change and those that don't change with the years.

  • Rocky jumped the bench, but Marty couldn't; instead he had a seizure.

  • wow this iz preety cool

  • Epic! Great vid. Long time fan of your reviews as yourself or the AVGN and also Long time Rocky fan!

  • great doc

  • EPIC Documentary!! Great Job James! Long Live Rocky!!!!

  • damn james this was good vid. you really sure know how to make the characters from rocky come alive:)

  • wait thats not right if Adrian was 30 in rocky 1 and that was 1976 shouldnt it be born 1946 not 1950?

  • awesome as always james

  • Well done, I enjoyed this thoroughly. You put this unique touch in everything that you do, something that others are unable to feel or steal. Keep up the great work.

  • One day you're gonna make one awesome director, James. Hopefully I'll be there to be in one of your movies :)

  • Good, good. Keep making em, ill keep watchin em. Addictive stuff. Loved Cinemassacre 200 also, bravo AVGN.

  • I can see you put a lot of effort visiting the locations and editing all this footage together. Good-work, I really enjoyed it.

  • epic

  • It's funny how there are much less people watching these videos in this channel, and over 100.000 in the JamesNintendoNerd channel.

  • Very cool to see the filming locations. Nice work.

  • running math

    5.35+1.2+1.63= 8.18miles + back to art museum.(don't know the miles to the art museum)

    13.1/3Km

  • James, you didn't mention that from the proper angle William Penn looks like he's holding his dick!

  • Great! I'd be interested to see the edited version
